boingboingParticipantAbsolutely disgraceful.
I knew not to expect too much from a US-owned airline. After all the country is in a recession, they probably don’t have too much money to spend on refurbs for their planes. Unfortunately this one didn’t look like it had been updated since Reagan was in power.
I hoped for on demand video on seat back screens, I prepared myself for that possibly not being present. In my wildest nightmares I didn’t expect no seat back screens at all and barely visable small screens way off in the distance.
I feared being cramped but nothing prepared me for an overnight flight with a member of the US military reclined into my lap and my knee getting clouted by the trolley every time the attendant went up the aisle. And she told me off for my misplaced body part. I asked her where the heck I was supposed to put my knee with one of America’s finest lying on top of me. ‘Mam’ she said ‘I could care less just don’t put it in my aisle’.
I did on line check in 24 hours before departure as soon as the option opened – I use the term option lightly. My choice was take it or leave it and this on an economy return flight that my employees paid more than £1600 for.
On the plus side the staff on the outbound flight were a cheery and smiley delight and I landed a very pleasant (but equally annoyed) passenger sitting beside me on each flight. Oh, and the vegetarian food was not awful and at least they didn’t have the nerve to charge for drinks.
I noticed business class still doesn’t have flat beds. I really wonder why anyone flies Delta when Virgin and BA are available as alternatives. I pray I don’t have to go with Delta again – I’m sure the name is meant to reflect a geographic feature and not a passenger rating. If it were I’d consider a delta far too good a ranking for what I received.
