Feel free to make a case to a mod to allow it to live on!

My hope is to just keep a little sense of humor in here independant from his own thread that can at least bring some laughs to the crazy things Delta has done perhaps in a different style and light in respect for him.
Back on topic however,
Why does delta need to have a premium zone and skypriority? If first class gets the skypriority experience, whats the point of having 2 separate zones? Just have platinums, golds, and silvers board in the "medallion zone". And perhaps, comfort+ in zone 1? Oh and another pet peeve of mine, why is it we just have a general boarding lane and a breeze way. Why cant we have a lane for each zone that merges at the podium? I mean how hard can it be, if WN can do it by row, I think we can have four lanes.

Ooooh, I've got one!
Sometimes I'll have a redeye and really be looking forward to leaning up against the window and sleeping the whole way. Then I get upgraded!
There's often a big gap between my seat and the window, preventing me from leaning to the side - and I don't want to be the jerk that reclines my seat fully. Even worse, I 'have' to stay awake until beverages are served, because it makes sleeping fully upright so much more possible.
Sadly, this is an actual complaint of mine - talk about first world problems!

I feel your pain! Fortunately, other people usually seem to prefer aisles, so I've mostly had luck chatting up my neighbors during PDBs and finding someone who's happy to switch.

I wasn't looking forward to the last one when I had a choice between 5B and 5C, and saw a 757 at the jetway ... but it turned out to be a 753 with the comfy old seats
savored my Woodford PDB, reclined about 50% by the time the landing gear was fully retracted, and the next thing I knew the captain was announcing 20 min to touchdown in DTW

ok, back to rants

An older FA on a recent flight specifically announced that the forward lav was for rows 1-4, and that economy passengers were restricted to using the rear lav.

People who don't include their route/flight number, seat number, total miles flown, status, how much they paid for their ticket (or whether it's an award) on their post.
How are we supposed to know how important they are?
