Delta offered us $1500 to take a later flight with a connection

[Anonymous]

We did it a few years ago since it was a departure from DCA and really just started our vacation later but we were going to stay with friends v a hotel so had the flex. We countered with $750/pp and the American airline girl could have kissed me they were j think at $400/pp at the time. DH and always joke we should have led with $1k/pl and negotiated down lol

It was so funny because they ran the oversold again in our later flight but by then we were ready to holiday

The upshot is we ended up booking 2 trips each with the funds in American and it got yo the point where we were tied to American always seeking flights since it was a great deal for us at the same time really hating the airline because both those trips had so many issues on AA! So in hindsight we weren't unhappy we saved money but at the same time wished we got more out of it, booking one big trip using the funds. The moral is the money is nothing to them because they can always get that back in profit. You're tied to using them again

For $6K I would skip a couple days of Synthroid.

That would make me very ill, so no. Not OP, but someone else with no thyroid.

Beware the certificates and vouchers in general, people.

I would have for that amount...

I always carry my thyroid medicine in my purse (and also always bring at least an extra weeks worth of medication because you never know....)

I mean, Delta flies upside down now.

This. For a voucher I'd probably pass. For a credit or cash I'd be off the plane as fast as humanly possible.

I would not worry about that voucher now and instead, worry about why two grown adults do not know how to pack better for a flight.

What is the difference between a certificate and a voucher? Are there blackout dates?

Don’t have to ask me twice without hesitation

If I wasn't feeling well, I'd have my family do it if they could and fly home or vice versa. I would have just bought what we needed.

When flying with kids, we’ll sometimes split up with one of us taking kids home and other parent taking deal. Not as much $$ but still gets us something and is relatively painless

I would not do it bc I would not trust any part of this deal.

Why the heck did you check your meds?!

Deals like this happen all the time, nothing unsavory about it

Always ask for a cash payment.
