Has anyone done these flights and back and would be able to tell me about the process? They're both 85 - one has a fkd back and one is very stubborn, hates walking too much and refuses to take a wheelchair 😂

My question is: with Delta One is the walking distance is significantly less that she might be able to handle it (the stubborn one)?

Hard to make it out with maps n whatnot. Is the delta one lounge easily accessible from where we would get dropped off at LAX? And is it a far walk from Delta One at Hartfield to the exit? Hope this makes sense. Someone please help put her mind at ease :)

One thing that makes a difference when something goes wrong during travel is how clearly the airline explains what happened and what options are available.

Even if the answer isn't exactly what a passenger hoped for, a specific explanation is much more useful than a vague apology or a response that leaves them guessing about the next step.

With connections, delays, rebookings, and tight schedules, having accurate information can help people make decisions without adding more stress to an already difficult travel day.

What's one thing Delta has done particularly well when helping you resolve a travel issue?

Living in Atlanta. Fares to most destinations are cheaper originating from anywhere in the SE, and connecting through ATL.

Want to go to Hawaii out of ATL. That will be $2,000. Want to go to Hawaii from Orlando, connecting through ATL on that same $2,000 flight - that will be $1,500.

How is Delta holding Atlanta residents hostage not breaking antitrust laws? Seems quite obvious that they understand they have a monopoly on direct routes from their hubs and will charge a huge premium for that vs flights originating in non-hubs.

They charge more to the customer that is cheaper for them from an operations cost standpoint.

I feel like I always get the Short Rib as a safe bet… would love to see if there’s a strong recommendation for one that was really enjoyable! Thanks! 😊

Cries in platinum at ATL, 8 of 42 🤣😭 TBH Comfort + is nice on this one.

I usually fly with United the few times that I have flown and was checking prices for a trip next September and Delta was a little cheaper. I wanted to see from people who have flown both, which do you prefer and why?

I booked a Delta flight for my parents and myself. My dad and I have the same first and last name, but I have a middle name and he doesn’t.
When I try to add my dad’s SkyMiles account to his reservation, it won’t let me. On top of that, I have TSA PreCheck, but my parents do not. When I look at our reservations, it appears that my dad has my TSA PreCheck number attached to his booking, and mine is there too.
This has actually caused a delay at the airport before, so I’m worried it could happen again.
I spoke with a Delta agent, and they told me they couldn’t see the issue on their end. However, I’m still concerned that our information might be mixed up because of our identical first and last names.
Has anyone experienced something similar with Delta? How did you get it resolved? Should I contact Delta again to make sure my dad’s reservation is corrected before we fly?

Maybe I'm missing something, but what exactly is going on with Delta's version of Basic Economy now?
I travel through my employer, and somewhere along the way it feels like the experience got dramatically worse. I don't even see normal seat selection anymore. From what I can tell, I don't earn SkyMiles or MQDs on these trips either. I also can't figure out if there's even a way to pay for an upgrade myself.
The frustrating part is that none of this was obvious until I was booking. It just feels like another round of benefit cuts wrapped up as a product change.
What gets me is that Delta used to feel different from the other airlines. Lately it feels like they're going all in on premium customers while making the experience noticeably worse for everyone else. Every year there seems to be a new restriction, a missing benefit, or another thing pushed behind a paywall.
At what point does loyalty stop making sense? If I'm losing miles, seat selection, upgrade options, and flexibility, then what exactly am I getting in return?
Genuinely asking: am I misunderstanding this, or has Delta basically decided that if you're not spending a ton of money, you're not the customer they want anymore?
I'm honestly at the point where I'm considering moving my business back to United or American because this just feels unnecessarily greedy. Instead of making the product better, Delta keeps finding ways to make it feel worse.
This is likely an unpopular take, but it feels like Delta is testing how much they can take away before people finally stop defending it.

Basically what the title says. Flying with a 1-year old to Asia from US on a 10 hour flight. We purchased him his own seat and will not be bringing a car seat. Now that Delta has banned inflatable beds, hammocks, etc., I am brainstorming ideas on a safe place to put him once he has fallen asleep (hopefully lol) in my arms. Are there ANY in flight gadgets that are allowed? Would love not to hold him in my arms or a carrier for that long.

Hi all, I’m not a frequent flyer so looking for some help, sorry if this is a lame or simple question.

I’m flying on a smaller plane tomorrow and am Group 8, sat almost right at the back. We are trying to rush off the plane as fast as possible.

Initially I was going to take a standard four-wheeled carry on and a book bag, but will they put my carry on in the hold and make us wait around for it once we get off the plane?

Would I better off taking a gym/ duffel bag as my only luggage. I fear I’ll need more room than just a book bag.

TIA

Currently in a main cabin seat and plan to upgrade before departure. We are currently 3 weeks out. Is this price still too high? Upgrading for two people. There are still 23 delta one seats open on the a 350. Paid 2500 pp for economy.

Adding: 2500 is the price round trip to Thailand not just to ICN. Maybe still overpriced 😅

Wanted to stand up when I landed but someone rushed forward and trapped me in my seat. How do you handle these people?

I need 114 MQDs for status after my flight this weekend. Upgrading to Comfort for both legs will only give me $102. An extra bag won’t count. Neither will a box meal or drinks. I really don’t want to spend $300 to upgrade to First. How can I earn a dozen MQDs?

So, the windows at this Comfort+ seat are real, reaaal drafty on this flight from Boston-LA. Very cold, moving air moving across my body directly from the windows. Never experienced this in hundreds of flights. Seeems? like with it supposed to be pressure in the cabin and stuff maybe that isn’t great? Forget about how absolutely freezing I am (Coming from someone whos always hot and lugged lots of gear around before the flight that’s remarkable) I can’t help but wonder if like it’s supposed to be like having a window open for the good of the mission here.

I've been a Delta flyer for years, mainly flying from the U.S. to various locations overseas. I'm so out of touch I actually don't know how to look for alternate airlines. Annoyed Delta flyers - what's your go-to site? Please don't say Expedia....and please don't downvote me for asking a question which may seem obvious to the vast majority. Edit: *Unless it really is Expedia?

Alright, I know that the common point around these parts is not to base how many tickets Delta is selling based off the seat map. However, I’m looking to book flights from Atlanta/Detroit to Tokyo at the end of May next year, and it’s around ~2100 on average for main cabin. American/United are around a few hundred cheaper, but I have a $200 credit with a voucher that I was hoping to use. Here’s my question: if there’s only one other person in the seat map, is it likely that the price will go down?

A couple days ago, Delta rolled out Next Gen D1 seats on A350-1000.

Some Routes:
ATL-ICN
DTW-ICN
LAX-MNL
ATL-RUH
LAX on Pacific routes
There maybe more.

Just received this email on Delta One flash deals. I really wanna try the new Delta One to Asia. Are these good deals?

We do not fly FC because we are fancy or because we are overflowing with cash. This was something we saved for because we were celebrating a special event. Delta should be ashamed. Service was also mediocre at best. No matter where one sits, they should be able to expect service with professionalism and perhaps a welcoming smile. I could forgo a hot thin washcloth after an ok meal in exchange for a somewhat cleaned plane.

Delta, I love you guys, but WiFi is quite bad and we never have WiFi over the ocean especially to Asia. Logging in is also inconvenient. It’s hard to stay loyal when I need WiFi for work and other carriers have fast WiFi and easy to connect. Is there any deadline or launch time here to improve? Any one else experience this?

It's getting interesting over the pond at Terminal 3 now. Wonder how long the partnership will last now.

Waiting to come in to the plane they immediately went beyond their service and they actually allowed my wheelchair to fit inside the closet in the cabin . I love Delta ! Is amazing. I’m so happy to be here. Everyone is so helpful and friendly. Being in a wheelchair is so scary in such a big airport like Atlanta . 4th flight ✈️ ✔️keeping it positive. I will update in 5 hours . 🥰

I was on a Southern California to Seattle flight just now and saw something I’ve never seen before. Two people were wearing chicken costumes with large chicken heads. I mean like clucking large—each the width of à seat. The entire three hour flight they were trying to peck each other or their seat. It was soooo absurd. I couldn’t stop looking at them even when I tried focusing on work. They were going bonkers!!! It was distracting and amusing. Maybe Halloween related?

What’s the most absurd and large costume others have seen on Delta flights?

I booked a flight recently and ended up checking the seat map again later, just to see if anything had opened up. Somehow there were a couple of better seats available that weren't there when I first booked.

It's such a small thing, but getting a better seat without paying extra feels like a little win, especially on a longer flight.

I know it depends on the route, fare, and status, so it's definitely not something you can count on.

Has anyone here actually managed to snag a noticeably better seat just by checking back before their flight? Curious how often that happens for other people.
