pound for pound, Delta has a much better product then Emirates. Delta doesnt have F international so disregard that. Lets look at the 77L in business.

Emirates packs them in with a 2-3-2 configuration; Delta has a 1-2-1 config. Huge advantage goes to Delta.

Coach class, Emirates packs them in like sardines in a very uncomfortable 3-4-3 config whereas Delta goes 3-3-3. Huge advantage to DL again.

Delta's inflight service might not match that of Emirates but its not like its abysmal. Delta does a pretty decent job and if I was flying in J or Y, the best way to go would be Delta.

The M3's personal attack on RA is both immature and unethical. If they don't like the stance and opinion of RA and the US3, they can at least keep things professional and clean. I have lost all respect for these bumbling idiots that run the M3. Attacking RA and Delta Air Lines the way they have kind of makes you wonder if maybe they really do play unfairly with huge sums of money that mysteriously appear in the M3 coffiers.
