Agree. I'm not sure what the racial bias was in reference to. I also want to bring to light the ME airlines expansion in the US as well. EK adding more frequencies and destinations in the US (MCO) means I no longer even have to set foot on a US airline to get out to the Middle East, Subcontinent, etc.
Kindly re read the middle pages and you'll see what I'm talking about.
I just am fed up with both speculative hype being blown out of proportion on FT in general (the official word or announcement seems rather superfluous here) and yes stereotyping and outright bashing based on things that have nothing to do with Aviation. Those vents should most likely go in the non aviation section as they are not related to Delta. I get that this is flyer "talk" but would expect more professional behavior even in forums from mature adults. A lot of content here seems childish and unmoderated. "Welcome to FT, buddy?" So sad.

All content is thoroughly moderated, as anyone who spends any significant time here can see.

While I agree with your points about the nature of these boards and the moderators role, I'd also have to point that there is reference in at least ONE post to riding on the plane with smelly people and consuming food that causes gastrointestinal issues at the point of departure. You may think that this is just a matter of one's opinion based on experience, but it does paint a people and culture with very broad strokes.
