Northwest Airlines refuses to honor award tickets to gay couple

It seems Northwest insists on being discriminatory in it's attitude towards employees and customers. Might I suggest to avoid using Northwest Airlines.

Okay, so Northwest explains that the ticket was part of an interline exchange where reciprocal honoring of domestic partner benefits was asked for fairness. It was Air New Zealand's refusal to honor Northwest domestic partner requests that caused this. I suppose it is a bit much for Northwest to refuse to do business with Air New Zealand over their discriminatory policies.
