Looks like Delta have been busy refitting their 767-400s. Comfy.

Yup. Westin Heavenly Bedding is back. I miss the little reading light, though. Maybe DL don’t expect people to still peruse dead trees.

It’s still a 764. Yuck. Delta has the oldest fleet. 🤢

Agreed, D1. Sometimes people ask if I’m repping Delta by how highly I praise them. D1 FAs - especially on 2-aisle aircraft (because talking over the other pax’s head on a D1 757 kinda sucks) have always been engaging and the best service of the US carriers. On TATL or TPAC routes, you’ll run into some of the heavy-seniority FAs who hail from Pan-Am, NWA, or even Western Airlines (predecessor to NorthWestern). Had quite a few
wistful conversations upon FAs seeing Pan Am Platinum and TWA Ambassador bag tags.

While I haven’t flown the ME3, I do hear service there is spectacular. LH I find brusque and businesslike; MU service is decent, but very formulaic; TG is fantastic but being based in the US not really useful to me much; and while VS isn’t bad per se, I think they were much better in the mid-2000s.

All that said, I’m sticking with DL where I can. Lately especially I’ve noticed FAs stopping by every seat and thanking Medallion members by name and status for flying and keeping them working. Maybe I’m just a big softie at heart but I find that touching and an acknowledgment of how bad C19 lockdowns have been in their lives. I’m glad to be traveling with them again.

My wife and I recently flew this type from SLC to Maui but didn’t get the pillow and blanket, did you get it on your flight?

Hi all,

I just got a job with Delta airlines and I had an accomodation request to work remotely as I am Immunocompromised. I provided all the neccesary documents to back up my request and letters and documents from my Dr. aswell. My request was denied because the team said they wanted me to have face time and one on one interactions with people from other team (which defeats the purpose of my request) because I have to limit those interactions to reduce the risk of infection. What do I do?

I have a game I love to play at the airport. I find someone who has the most vague resemblance to someone famous and then insist they are that person.

Guy who very very vaguely resembles Tom Hanks insists he isn't. Then I keep insisting he is.

This is a fun way to pass time during layovers.
