re: Delta Airlines just induced a sizeable melt

I flew Delta from Detroit to Beijing in November and they used an old worn out A330 with 4 bathrooms. There were 200 people on the flight and that bathroom was ridiculous by the end of the flight.

---

I've flown a lot of miles. Closing in on 2 million on United alone. Most of these miles accumulated on international flights. Even flew the LAX-SIN 18 hour non-stop a couple of times.

I always "managed things" so that I would not have to do any more than unload filtered alcohol in an airplane toilet. The idea of Clintoning in one of those made me shudder.

Even then, I would always brace myself in there. Too many miles on a tour bus where my buddies would yell "brake check" to the driver anytime somebody stepped into the loo.

I think it's time you took a break from the keyboard, at least for today.

Delta needs to do the right thing and eliminate CNN from its Club Lounges. Until they do that I will only give them a C+ for this response to CNN. Of course I only fly public domestic airlines when my plane is in need of service like all OTers on here so it doesn't impact me too much.

In the short term, the stock market cares a lot less about actual results than whether they met expectation. Revenue exceeded analyst projections and earnings matched.

You might want to read WHY those numbers are what they are.

As usual, out-of-context and incomplete. Welcome to today's media.

You misspelled "United."

I'm sorry to read that. Delta is a shitty airline.

All of our mainline domestic carriers are shitty relatively to many major foreign airlines (incl other non-luxury carriers like KLM- Air France, Lufthansa, Virgin, etc). It's still the best in this country.

If you have to Clinton, do it towards the beginning of the flight. Better yet, do it in the lounge bathroom before the flight.

Half of CNN's "viewers" are from the Atlanta Airport sky lounges. It's like relaxing background noise that no one pays attention to.

Do we have a reputable source reporting this? CNN hasn't had the best track record as of late

Good grief....what am I thinking? This could be completely fake News.
