As I'm flying to EBB, I would have next been able to get there two days late. Finally the rep came back and confirmed a seat on British Airways so I'll get to where I need to go. But this business of faulty explanations really has me bothered.
Most of the time the GA/Res agent doesnt' see DAL requested. They only see delay, mx/wx/atc.

This really is a bad issue DL needs to fix.
