Delta gets me from point A to point B in the class and comfort level for which I pay. Occasionally, I get upgraded seats. This is a company. This is what they are supposed to do. This isn't a spouse, this isn't a lover, this isn't an entity that can or should be the basis for anybody feeling needed, wanted, or special. If you are basing your self worth on what an airline is or isn't doing for you, I feel badly for you.

Delta is a great airline and usually delivers exactly what they say they will deliver, which is almost-always exactly that for which I pay.
