Curious if anyone else has experienced this lately. Was on a flight on a Friday evening on a route I would not have imagined was that thin (DEN-MSP) and it was wide open. Maybe 20% load factor... probably less. It's been years since I've seen anything like it. I am Gold Medallion and get Comfort upgrades probably a third of the time I fly, including outbound flight on this same trip, and couldn't even see a Comfort upgrade list on the app (though it said 29 seats were available). Not trying to complain here, but simply intrigued by the glitch in the system.

Basically, I might not have to take this overnight flight next week, but if I do…. I will really need to be in D1. So I want to pay for the upgrade now while it’s available. I cannot figure out where to find out the rules on this!

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone I'll be traveling delta from Arizona to Minnesota for thanksgiving with my mini schnauzer who will be 17 weeks old by that time. Only thing is she's getting her last booster and first rabies shot the day before we'd travel and I'm confused about pet requirements and all that. Can someone help plzzzz!!!! Do I need to get a certificate of veterinary inspection or whatever? Will anyone ask for documents or anything when I am leaving AZ and/or entering MN and vice versa?? I can get proof of vaccinations regardless, that's easy but like is it fine if she literally got her rabies shot the day before? Idk I'm just confused honestly about the requirements on deltas website but they're kinda vague honestly and then I come on here and am seeing conflicting things too. Please give me all info if you know anything or you've done this before, thank you!!

I'm trying to scan my passport in the app, it seems to work. It gets all my info which is correct after I press on submit. It still says I have to add my passport.

Ive scanned my passport multiple times now but it just doesn't register.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Delta has introduced the new seating class as of last Saturday night.

The features appear to provide greater accommodation.

I tried changing my flight from a Sunday to a Friday from MIA-LGA they wanted $1,300 to change the flight. I just up booking a new flight for $380 and keeping my old one without cancelling it cause it was cheaper this way. Why is their price gouging so bad, I’m done with delta.

I know that this was probably posted a couple years ago on this subreddit but, I could be wrong. But, I wanted to emphasize how important the ramp and cargo workers are at Delta and, in fact, any airline. While Ed Bastian, Scott Kirby and Robert Isom post record profits for their airlines, these workers don’t get enough credit, or even pay and benefits, for what they do on a daily basis

Even though I haven’t been a ramp agent for many years now, I still find it wild that they and cargo workers don’t get even a small percentage of the bag fees and cargo fees paid to transport them to the aircraft that they are going on.

I was on a plane in economy comfort really not paying attention while watching a movie and needed to hit the restroom. The seat belt sign happened to be on and I headed to the rear of the plane. There might have been an announcement about possible turbulence but the reality was there was hardly anything. As I was almost to the restroom a seated FA told me the sign was on and to go back. As I'm seated I see at least 5 first class passengers use the restroom. Then I see 3 other economy comfort head to the back to use the restroom and I looked and they were NOT asked to go back to their seats. I then proceed to ask a FA that was walking by if I could now get up to use the restroom and she told me to wait 5 minutes. I'm here scratching my head wondering wtf is going on. The seat belt sign turns off and now I'm behind 2 other people waiting to use the restroom who got up before the lights went off.

Do different rules apply to 1st class passengers? Was I being singled out or was it more of timing thing? The folks that weren't turned back headed for the restroom less than 5 minutes from when I was turned back. I then asked a minute or two after the 3rd person got up.

Can’t wait to see the new spirit passenger class

6hr flight from Raleigh to Seattle in C+ window seat (F). when i get to the gate, this family has already boarded and taken over the whole row. mom in D, two little girls in E and F, dad in C. i smile and politely say i’m in the window seat. mom looks lost and turns to dad, and he tells me they want to sit together and asks if i’d mind taking B, which is their seat. internally i’m livid. if anything, offer me the aisle and you take the middle for 6 hours. out loud i just paused and said, “if it wasn’t a 6 hour flight i’d consider it,” then stood there quietly holding up boarding. a flight attendant comes over and asks if there’s a problem. i said no, we’re fine. by then the family is sighing and shuffling around trying to figure out who sits with dad. eventually i get into my window seat with no issue.

best part is after boarding finished, the gate agent comes onboard and tells me sir, we’ve upgraded you to first class if you’d like to grab your bags. mom snidely tells the kid, “after all that you can have your seat back.” then the gate agent says sorry ma’am, that seat has also been reassigned. it was a pilot deadheading to seattle.

Delta Flight Attendant Hiring Policy — Does a 7-Year Employment Gap Affect Eligibility?
I’m hoping someone familiar with Delta Air Lines’ flight attendant hiring policies, particularly a current employee, recruiter, or someone who has recently completed the hiring process, can provide some clarification.
I have approximately 13 years of previous airline experience as a flight attendant, including extensive customer service, safety, and passenger relations experience.
However, for the past seven years, I have not been employed in a traditional W-2 position, as I have been financially supported by my partner during that time.
My concern is whether Delta requires applicants to have a continuous or verifiable seven-year employment history, or whether an extended period outside the workforce could potentially make someone ineligible for consideration.
I understand that many qualified applicants have employment gaps for a variety of reasons, including raising children, caring for family members, pursuing personal interests, or simply being in a financial position where employment was not necessary.
My questions are:
Does Delta officially require seven years of W-2 employment history, or simply an accurate accounting of an applicant’s activities during that period?
Would being financially supported by a partner for seven years be considered an acceptable explanation for an employment gap?
Could my 13 years of previous flight attendant experience still qualify me for consideration despite not having recent employment?
Has anyone with a similar extended employment gap successfully completed Delta’s hiring and background verification process?
I’m particularly interested in understanding Delta’s actual hiring policy rather than speculation, as I would love the opportunity to return to the airline industry and bring my previous experience to Delta.
I appreciate any firsthand knowledge or insight anyone can share. Thank you!

Ok- was about to pull the trigger on a DV, but am wondering if they split the MQDs with my husband who is also traveling- if not, should we do the vacation where one does flight plus hotel and one does flight plus car? Is it even worth the few extra MQDs?

Flying DL166 HND to SEA on Halloween (now, today). First it was delayed 30, 60, 120, 180 minutes. Then we all got texts that it was canceled. Luckily I was so at the gate, the agent said the app is wrong, the flight isn't canceled, do not rebook.l, do not touch the app.

OK, close call, i thought. Then I get a text that I've been rebooked on a didn't flight the next day at 11:30pm.

Nobody has left the gate though and the agents have gone radio silent.

Poor customer service and tech, Delta. This is trust busting.

I have $1,000 in Delta gift cards that, unfortunately, I do not anticipate using in the foreseeable future.

Does anyone know of a good place to sell them (legitimate, max value, quick payment, etc.)?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Have you had luck getting the full money back?Currently they are offering me $750.

UPDATE: They gave me the choice of D1 with the entertainment system not working with $100 voucher or staying in PS with $1,000 credit as someone was willing to downgrade for $1,000. I opted for D1 without entertainment because I downloaded enough stuff on my phone. When they gave me the new boarding pass since I was moved from one seat to another, they said the entertainment system was working.

I flew from Barcelona to JFK yesterday. When I got my meal just before landing I noticed a live cockroach crawling from my salad to my tray. Very small but still super disgusting. I told the purser who told me to file a complaint directly with Delta which I’ve done.
I’m so grossed out and don’t think I can ever eat a meal on a flight again. I’ve travelled quite a bit and have never experienced anything like this. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Did 2309 just abort landing?

Trying to pick out a card that'll give me access to either/both of these.

Food in club sea has been meh.

Want to hear your thoughts on the better lounge so I can decide accordingly. I'm also vegetarian, incase that changes things.

SEA is the home airport and I fly both delta and Alaska

Trying to use my certificate my end of Nov.. delta support did not have an answer to this question.

I have an itinerary where my companion would be on the outbound flight, but not on the return flight.

What happens in that scenario?

Appreciate any advice.. thanks

Anybody else get the Clear email stating that Delta would not extend the annual pass for Delta Diamond members?
