Early Valet will be offered through August on some departures from Delta's busiest airports — Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, Detroit, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City and Seattle.

It will be available only on flights that typically have a high number of vacationers. Presumably, business travelers know how to board a plane efficiently. Specially tagged bags will be stowed on the plane before boarding begins, Durrant said.

Where is DL getting the extra staff to provide this VIP service for Kettles? Kettle1 wonders?

Perhaps get a bunch of interns to provide this service.

And why not do this in MCO where 90% of the flts are full of Kettles in the Summer?
