DL Connection (SkyWest) 4917, MKE-SEA, E175

Meal service:
-They wanted to board quickly and take off before some thunderstorms approached MKE, so the water at the seat was the PDB. We pushed 10min early, so worth it.
-Orders taken front-back, so not following DL’s “front-even, back-odd” policy. I wasn’t happy, being in the last row of F, but they still had both meal choices when she got to me last.
-Drinks served first, while breakfast was heating, followed by hot towels.
-Breakfast choices were a ham/egg/cheese sandwich on croissant or a bowl of granola, both served with fruit and yogurt. I had the breakfast sandwich, served hot, and it was filling enough with the fruit that I kept my container of yogurt for later. The sandwich was tasty, and the croissant was a real, flaky croissant, not one of those croissant-shaped pieces of white bread usually found on DL. (With AF as a partner, there’s really no excuse for serving bad croissants.). This breakfast surpasses the last several DL mainline breakfasts I’ve eaten, including a recent MSP-SEA flight where I sent it back after 1 bite, only time I’ve ever done that.
-Breakfast service and drink refills continued through some impressive turbulence (for aviators, definitely moderate-level), where many FAs would have paused.
-No official pass of the snack-basked, but the FA offered snacks repeatedly. My seat-mate requested Biscoffs, which she brought and refilled throughout the flight.

Overall, a surprising thumbs-up!
