How is that bad? Only to a leftist can a company being profitable be a bad thing.

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.

Let's be honest United, Delta, and American are all subpar.
Last year I was on a United flight and the Pilot left our bags sitting on the ground because it was taking to long to load them. I got to PEK and didn't see my luggage for 3 days.
I had a one night trip for a meeting a few months back and Delta didn't deliver my checked back with my suit in it. They told me to go back upstairs to the Brooks Brothers in the airport and get what I needed, and they sent me a check for $1,000 to cover it. I was pretty happy with their customer service.

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.

This will end up hurting Delta because they'll have to use more fuel to carry fatter passengers.

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.
