For connections, I would turn on my cell phone after landing and have a notification for my connecting flight. If a flight canceled or delayed, I would always get that as a text and it worked extremely well and I would always have the info as soon as I turned my cell phone on upon landing.

Having that info saved my butt a couple times and allowed me to call the plat line while taxiing to the gate to make changes.

I stopped flying DL/NW for the past couple years, as such no longer plat and currently climbing the status ladder with my new DL account.

Now that I've been Deltafied, I've set up notifications to go to my mobile device and it doesn't work. During delays earlier this week I haven't even received a phone call or an email even though I have this setup at delta.com

Will go back and check my settings on delta.com -- but I think the notification system is broken. ?
