Ok, so I got up early this morning...

...to do my online boarding and NOTHING! I feel so discouraged! It said that our confirmation number couldn't be found for online checkin at this time. What does that mean? I tried @ 5:45 am for our flight tomorrow @ 5:35am. What gives? Is it because I booked @ Priceline? I was going to wait until DH gets up for work in 1 hour to give Delta a courtesy call. I just want to make sure we get comfortable seats.


Please make me feel better about this!!!

You have to do it the morning that you go so tonight at 12:01am that is when you will need to do it for a flight on Sunday. Good luck!

Edited to say... Oops! I was assuming that you were talking about Southwest. Not sure for any other airline.

 

[pumpkinfish]

Really? Because Delta's website states I can check-in online 24 hours before my flight.
I know that's how you do it for SW, but I am usuing Delta.

Thanks for your info!

 

[pumpkinfish]

LOL.
Looks like you edited it right when I was typing mine

Ok, so we had the wrong confirmation number. I didn't realize that I had to call Delta direct to get my REAL confirmation number, and not the BOOKING confirmation number.
Did that and all is well.

Except that all the seats had been reserved and we had to take what we had been assigned. I had written down the info from the seatguru site, and isn't it funny that we have every bad seat for our flights going and coming back! LOL. I told DH and then said that NO seat that takes us to disney is a bad seat

Ok, so we are off in 21 hours

Glad you figured it out and I agree that no seat going to Disney is a bad seat!

FWIW, I think that when you buy from Priceline/Hotwire or the like, you nearly always get the "bad seats" (of which there aren't any going to Disney, remember, LOL). After all, those seats are the ones for which the airline gets less revenue. So hope you got a good deal on your "going to Disney" airfare. And remember, the back of the plane gets there at the same time as the front of the plane!

Best wishes -

Thank you so much Carol! Yeah, I kinda felt like an idiot for a sec...and then said to myself: This is your first time. You didn't know.

So now I am prepared for the future (as in Sept and Oct).

Mady/Sophiemom~ Thank you as well! This stressful week is behind me (it will be behind DH after he gets off work at 6 pm ), and I am seriously ready. Working on laundry (just general, and also sheets and towels. Nothing like coming home to fress sheets!), and chilling out today. No running around to be done!

You scared me there for a minute! I'm so glad you figured everything out.
