News and Notes for the Evening of April 3, 2012

AAdvantageGeek links to an American Airlines double elite qualifying miles offer between Dallas and Boston. Register prior to travel, the offer is valid between April 3 and June 30. A strike against new market entrant JetBlue!

Lucky points out that Delta has apparently resolved the ‘glitch’ that made it impossible for Skymiles members to book Air France or KLM business class award seats that those partner airlines were offering. Strangely, the problem had been resolved at the Asia call centers days earlier. But certainly good news that there’s no need for the Singapore and Hong Kong workaround.

New Girl in the Air says that Hertz will waive under 25 year old driver fees through June 30 using code 144314.
