Do y’all have no idea what’s happening in the airline industry right now?

I am no Delta apologist, but they are way better at not stranding you then United or American.

Yes. Flew them this week and got screwed by their poor scheduling.

I could say the same about Delta. The only domestic airline that hasn’t stranded me somewhere is United, but they refuse to use the damn AC on their planes, so I grin and bear it with American lol.

Mainline, ULCC, everyone is underwater, staffing crew and ground crew is an issue, and for hot weather locations the heat will exacerbate this. Whether or not you get stranded is typically a function of the carrier you fly and whether or not you’re at an out station or a hub. Stranding can be annoying or terrible based on 1) carrier policies 2) how much of a jerk pax are to airport staff

Throw them overboard! I wasn’t a fan pre-pandemic and can only imagine it’s gotten worse…
