Where is the worst Delta counter?
While I haven't down to as many cities as many of you travel pros, I've been to quite a few domestically. However, I have never seen the utter lack of competence that I've seen in PHL. It's almost like they are trying. Lol
So what do you all think it's the worst?

The only agents I talk to there are in the SC and they do a great job and have had their hands full this year.
I do get to the baggage claim area, but only when I'd staying at a hotel near the airport.

I go to PHL several times a year, have been doing so for years, and have no idea how to even find the ticket counter !

What Counter
I do not even use the counter for int'l flights. I am an all-carry-on guy and wait until the boarding gate to have the GAs scan my passport.

Of course, most of the folks in PHL know me, so that may make a difference.

Every time I've flown out of PHL, you'd get to the ticket counter faster if you joined the regular line instead of the SkyPriority line.

I was flying back home after Christmas one year with my wife. There was a couple in front of us in the SP line at PHL. He was a GM. The guy's wife/girlfriend/whatever got tired of watching the other line move after a few minutes, and went to join it, over the guy's protest ("this is the Priority line!"). She beat him to the counter, which I think bruised his elite ego a little bit.

I think you should explain your statement in some detail. Was your failure to be more loquacious due to the fact that you don't know how to spell "loquacious"?
