I've never had it not stop at the B gates. Was the escalator/elevator blocked to prevent you from going down there?
This was an actual error given the 12:30 am departure. It's my understand it was the port of Seattle doing.
I have flown on red eyes numerous times on Delta. They have all departed from S terminal. Part of the reason they do that is because the restaurants/shops are designed to be open longer than other parts f the airport.
The flight came in around 9:30. It was barely enough to make the connection.
We arrived around A10 (old NW terminal) then took the tram upstairs to mid terminal then took the tunnel to C, then to the gate of C21.
They boarded most of the flight when we got there.
They person seated next to us on the SEA-DTW was also on the connection to Buffalo.
In Seattle they actually pulled out the fod frm the plane and then set up a table for juice/soda/water and peanut/pretzel/shortbread cookies.
