This is why aisle seats in Y are almost as bad as middle seats when traveling alone. Either get cozy with the pax in the middle seat or get whacked by everyone that walks by. No thanks.

The options in the snack basket are limited--there are very few/no low-carb choices. Also, it would be nice if they had a cheese and/or charcuterie option in first to pair with the wine.

“Congrats On Your SkyMiles Award Trip” subject line on confirmation email after booking said award redemption ... yeah it’s nice to snag a TCON for 8500 miles and score the C+ upgrade within 15 min, but “congrats” is way too much

It's worse when you're being congratulated for spending far too many miles on the award ticket.

I'm doing ORD>DTW>PVG>SEA>ORD this weekend on a MR to get to DM. It was a changed flight due to work from a prior PEK MR. I didn't really look at the seat maps when on phone with PM rep. So now I'm in nearly full flights with sold out C+ on the international legs and the UG on the domestic legs passed me by on the window so I'm looking at about 30 hours in the air in coach, except for ORD>DTW where I did manage to at least get C+. How dare DL fill their planes!

A lady doped on opioids boarding my MSP>LAX flight and then freaking out about not being able to breathe and being totally incoherent and IDK seeing a colonial woman churning butter on the wing (only last part a joke). Not really pathetic since we had to go back to gate, wait for EMS and then refuel and then de-ice and we are gonna be a good 90 minutes late.
