Delta is going to be on the fast track to pissing me off if they neutralize the reasons I used for choosing to gift my wife FO as my PM choice. Most of the changes I've been ok with or learned to deal with, but this will be the "straw" if that's the case. Delta - pay attention!

As you have very frequently advised others: "Don't let the door hit you on the way out!"

There are absolutely no considerations made for PM's flying in coach to access the Business elite check in lane at the check in counter at overseas airports. The big red sign you see at the check-in counters simply says 'business elite check in' only.

I always use the lane anyway. Never have had an issue.

Phantom Sky Priority Ad Banner on DL.com

Yesterday, as I was adding my SM # to an itinerary that had been purchased for me by someone else, a banner popped up on the dl.com at the top of the "Itineraries" page, advertising Sky Priority in big print... I only noticed it right as I was clicking away from the page, and so I didn't even get the chance to read what it said. I of course tried to go back to that page and tried all sorts of other things, but could not find the ad banner anywhere.

I guess IT was playing around with testing things, and I caught it as it went "live" for a few moments.

Did anyone else see this yesterday?

I used it on both KLM and AF in AMS and FCO.

I use it in ZRH, LGW, LHR, CDG, FCO, AMS, DXB. Always on LUT fares, PM on Delta metal.

Must be my smile.

Good to know I'm not the only one. Had this happen again today.

I had previously posted a screenshot

https://www.delta.com/traveling_chec...at_airport.jsp

Once this page comes up, click on the 'At the Airport' option on the left, under the 'Business Elite' Section

Sky Priority is mentioned here, but the link to Sky Priority takes u nowhere

They know who you are and they will do what more than they ever could do before in order to make you happy. It reminds me of the glory days of the US Chairman's Desk at Winston-Salem.
From your mouth to **** ears, them were the days! I miss the US Chairman's desk sho nuff!
