Wow. Thanks. Looks like FlyerTalk strikes again ;););)

Horrible name.

On some airline message boards, for example, postings expressed a combination of surprise, disbelief and discontent regarding the change, along with satirical takes on the name.
Bahahahahahaha

If we tell them to get rid of their CRJs, will they listen to that too?

767 vs RJ, yeah I'd rather sit in that 767...

"Two Delta Jets Collide" makes it sound as though it might have been a midair collision. Perhaps one of the mods can de-sensationalize the thread title.

So how much compensation??? Given DL give out like 25k for a short delay I'd say there should be a bunch of new mileage millionaores ;)

If I had used SWUs or mileage UGs for the BOS/AMS flight and I was reaccomodated on other flights would I still get my B/E seat(s)???????

First question before asking about mileage compensation...

Being a CR9, Zi must retract my original statement. Such a shame. Why couldn't it be a crj? Life is so unfair:):)

Gotta love the local Boston media.

Last night it was "collided on the runway". This AM it was "Regional Jet struck by 787"

At least they put some (if not all) of the passengers up at the Seaport Hotel (nice place), instead of one of the local dumps.

Sort of OT, did anyone else see the trailer park kettle that was interviewed? He said something like this..."it was the worst experiences of my life, I will NEVER fly Delta again!"... Contrast that with another interview with a guy in a suit, who claimed everyone was calm and that the FA and other crew were great, and that DL had reaccommodated them. Seemed very happy.

To the first guy, I say go back to WN!:). (I hear some of their planes have sun roofs now!:)
