It never arrives. I call the Diamond line this morning. After more back and forth come to find out the reason why. Rather than having the email sent, the Twitter agent just made a selection for me. It was not what I would have ordered (was chicken-which I despise), so I asked the diamond agent to cancel it since she couldn’t figure out how to find what the other offerings for the flight were.

Amazing how difficult it seems to be for Delta to get something right that AA has done for years.

And more proof Delta Twitter has gone waaaaay downhill.

And now AA offers people 4 options to preorder on regular domestic flights (two traditional options plus a fruit and cheese plate or a new charcuterie plate). The later two still come plated and with a side salad and choice of bread.
