Ended up arriving about 60 minutes late in total and this was a later night inbound to Atlanta so probably meant a lot of missed connections on the last flight out. Pretty sure most pax would have preferred to make their connection and avoid an overnight stay in ATL over a diet coke...
So, in effect, the catering was 75 minutes late.
Catering (as in: delayed, incomplete, incorrect) is one of those areas where there is a lot of opportunity for DL to get its crap together (you can be the judge of whether the pun was intended
).
