I believe I may have the least "boo hoo" thread in a while, but here goes... I've exhausted DL and currently, myself in trying to make this work.
I originally had ticketed J/BE from DUB-CDG-SEA (via CityJet/AF from DUB to CDG) on 12/20, and CDG-SEA is famously upgraded to the lie flat BE seats, yay me, it's why I booked this itin.
However, my return which was due SEA-CDG-DUB, same as it ever was on 01/02, was unceremoniously changed, by some horrible forces known as friends... They've convinced me to go SEA-ATL-CUN on 01/04 and CUN-ATL-DUB on 01/09... All of this, BTW, is awesome.
I have no arguments, obviously with my friends hijacking my itinerary as I was a willing participant. However, in my haste, I failed to realize that ATL-DUB is still riding the old 767-300ER jets, with the 2x2x2 style seats in BE (the whole itin is in F/BE)... So I called DL to try and change to any lie-flat options TATL, and she came up short-- with connection options thru CVG, MEM, MSP, JFK and ATL... to AMS and CDG for the most part. I trusted that she ran through the options exhaustively, because we made good friends (Chisholm :)) over the past couple of hours... But I fear she and I missed a possible option for me to get TATL in a lie flat again... She said she even tried to route me back thru SEA but still no go...
Anyone know how to keep me in a 76* lie flat on the way back TATL? I'm OK with connecting on KL (even EI code share) or AF (CityJet most likely), or whatever the FT community dreams up... but at the moment, I feel like my CUN-ATL-DUB in the 753ER recliners may be as good as it gets upon my return to the Emerald Isle.
