Last year, DL was the bottom for me in terms of PDB. UA and AA were "tied" for first place I believe.
This year, complete reversal.

Anyway:
5/13/26 - ALB-ORD - PDB of OJ or Water. I asked for a vodka and OJ and after a pause, got a "I suppose I can do that for you". What's very odd on this flight is NO snacks for the 2 hours. Only beverages. Thought it was very odd. FA's chatted about their new contract and when they'd get their retro pay.
5/13/26 - ORD-CID on the E550. - No PDB. Once in the air, bottle of water (no option for anything else) and then FA stood in the galley for 20 minutes on the phone. Then got the prepare cabin for arrival. Very disappointed. I had seen this on the thread about this aircraft and any type of F service basically being nothing the majority of the time.

We'll see how my return trip goes (although on 5/16/26 it's a 737 for both legs).
