I must have just booked in time then. I booked PIT to BCN then BCN to VCE and then FCO to PIT. It was in coach though for 60,000 miles. This was last week.

Can you do a personalized one on one FTU with delta points and teach him how to find quality material? This delta update was maybe 50x better than anything he's written in the last week

I believe in the past Delta website said only open jaw OR stopover, but in practice the computer allowed both. No big surprise they are changing that now.
