I see that you keep bragging about NW and, while I believe they offer a very nice service, what you aren't saying is that you are speaking entirely of their First Class product. NW serves fewer meals in coach than most of the other airlines. </font>
Yes, that is correct....almost all my comments are a comparison between the FC products (although I am not "bragging"...just comparing). I do this for two reasons: firstly, as frequent flyers, it is the cabin where we all wish to sit, and second, I will be the first one to admit that there is absolutely nothing to distinguish the coach products of any of the major airlines among themselves - only AA had something slightly better with MRTC, but they are abandoning it. If I had to fly in coach, I would be as miserable as everyone else, squeezed into a tiny, uncomfortable seat with possibly only a cup of ice with a drop of soda to look forward to. Whether DL (or NW or anyone else) offers to sell me a meal for $8, wont make the experience any more pleasant. One of my goals in comparing DL with NW is showing that a frequent flyer can earn status and be rewarded with enough upgrades to make the traveling process more comfortable and pleasant. That wont be happening on DL much anymore.
