That is my concern at the moment.... however, NW is who i usually fly and who i preferred miles account.

i'm hoping this settles down soon.

NWA's employees are a time bomb, there is no way I'd plan any flight in the near future on them.

Check out their CHAOS plan:
CHAOS - Create Havoc Around Our System? - is a strategic campaign that pressures management through a series of tactical maneuvers up to and including intermittent strike actions legal under the Railway Labor Act. An actual CHAOS strike action may take many forms. It may call for a mass walkout for a day or a week at a time, with no advance notice to the company or to the passengers. CHAOS may strike a certain domicile or a certain piece of equipment. CHAOS may strike the entire system for 15 minutes, or strike all of the odd numbered gates in Detroit for a day.

I thought they broke up when eazy e died?
