This problem won't be fixed on DL until the issue of FA unionization is resolved. Ultimately, I don't blame DL here, but Sara Nelson and her constant attempts to bring Soviet bread line customer service to the airline industry.

The issue of FA unionization has been resolved. They’ve repeatedly, and by no small margin, voted against. The union will continue to try to grow its business, but With the smaller and smaller numbers of pmNW crew, chances of this changing at DL are pretty much non-existent now.
The reality is, service levels (or lack thereof) at other union (US3) carriers is comparable.
