I'm not a fan of the decision, but I laugh at the people who get hysterical over this kind of thing.

Everyone seems to want democracy and the free market to rule, yet they bitch incessantly when a private company caters to the masses.

This is the free market at work. Delta weighed their options and eliminated a service that was no longer viable. People who are much smarter than you or I looked at the pros and cons and decided to go this route. I can assure you that they are all about the bottom line, and this decision is best in their assessment.

Move along.

Probably booked extra flights from people wanting to show their support.


I don't plan to go big game hunting, so I doubt this decision will effect me in any way.

I for one am hardly "hysterical" or whatever other adjectives the other posters wanted to mention on the first page. Did you read the first line of my post? I never berated or debated Delta's right to make this decision. I just pointed out that I am disappointed and will look to fly other airlines. They made their decision and now I will make mine.

frick. Some people on here act as if bringing up a debatable topic on a discussion board is a criminal act. I guess the OT should just stick to "frick the police" and WYHI threads when not posting "I am so drunk... haha" threads. Probably room for an occasional hard legging on Paige too but that may be it I guess.
