I have to admit that I have nothing but good experiences with Delta guys. A couple of airlines ago, I used to commute on DL to get to work. The crews and other jumpseaters always went out of their way to help out.

DL pilots have been through a lot since 9/11. Its not fair to blame the guys still there for the 2% amongst those that took the money and ran.

We took a van 15 minutes later. My Captain called ALPA about it, but got the run around.

-Subsequently, I have jumpseated across the Atlantic Ocean dozens of times on Delta to my significant other at the time, and I have always been treated like royalty!

That removal of bags: That was out of line-

That guy, that captain? He's an *******.

"It's all about me", as per Fox News-

N!
I had a Delta captain try that on me once in ABQ early in the morning from the hotel to the airport. It didn't work out to well for him. He learned an important lesson about playing nice and sharing that morning.
