There's a thread on anet about this. A few folks over there seem to think its faster to take the train from T or A terminal to E. They seem to think its a huge waste of resources. Blasphemy I tell you! Jealousy gets you nowhere!
When i got the magical Porche pickup, I got from A terminal to E terminal in about 5 minutes. Plus, the escort to the delta skyclub was also a nice way to end the magical ride.

But according to Anet legend, its faster to take the train! I would've politely declined and taken the train, in fact, next time I think I will do just that.

Got the treatment today! Nice! Apparently there are eight porsches that are being driven about by four folks from Premier (or Elite) Customer Support Team. The initial term with Porsche is one year. Also asked about possibility of Meet and Greet in ATL and was told to expect it when new terminal opens up.

While I will likely never see this service, a friend of mine just posted a pic on Facebook of her, her boss, and a colleague in front of the Porsche SUV! (which I won't share for privacy's sake) Her boss is a DM & they let the other 2 colleagues go along for the ride! (ATL terminating pax) I'm 2 degrees from Kevin Bacon, but now 1 degree from the DL ATL Porsche ride!
ETA: My friend is at least a GM, not sure about the other colleague or if that made a difference in the pickup.

Very Nice Touch
Was traveling with Mrs. JPCAG before Christmas. Landed in ATL. Delta rep came to front of plane and called out my name and asked me to meet her after de-planing.
She took me and Mrs. JPCAG out onto the tarmac and into the Delta Porsche. Drove us over to our next gate.
Very nice touch Delta! Thank you!
