MSP - SJC: Wednesday 7:38 PM
737-800
FEBO followed: No (odd number flight but orders taken front to back)
PDB offered: No (despite early push back, first drink service to F was when meal was served)
Choices: Stuffed grilled chicken with mushrooms or grilled salmon



Last week I flew MSP-SFO and had the same choices and same meal and really enjoyed it. This week the chicken was slightly drier and there was a bit less moisture but overall it was pretty decent.

This flight turned out to be somewhat interesting. For the first part of the flight service was not great (no PDB offered despite on-time/early push, FEBO not followed, no drinks served to F except when meal was served, no snack baskets, no proactive drink refills). Then our flight diverted to DEN due to a low pressure indication on one of the engines. Fortunately DL had another 737-800 coming in about 15 minutes after we landed (the regularly scheduled MSP-DEN flight) and we were out of there again under 90 minutes on that plane with the same pilots and FAs. In Denver we were served PDBs, the snack basket did pass, drink refills were plentiful, and service was generally attentive.
