Chicago 🐡, does anyone use Delta as their main airline? I’ve been building United status, but I flex travel a lot to Delta hubs and Delta planes tend to be a lot nicer... any thoughts?

I have been flying to Minneapolis and on international flights needed to connect through Atlanta so Delta was my first choice. Didn’t mind it during the time but have since moved to UA.

Only seen people do that on projects in Detroit or similar direct Delta hub cities, otherwise makes zero sense

Can’t see doing that unless you love connecting

Deltas status also just gives you more. United had continually been watering down their benefits

Senior associate 1, have you been staffed on projects where using delta is problematic? (No direct flight, too expensive, etc)

Fly Delta jets.

I prefer delta and flew it most of the year but had projects in Atlanta where it made sense.

It’s hard to do for east coast travel. Usually involves a layover in Atlanta or Detroit and you’re already starting the day behind your east coast colleagues/clients. Nice thing is that both airports have Delta flights though.
