The smell of baking cookies in D1. After 8 hours on the DUB-ATL flight my clothes and hair reeked of it.
Even worse was the smell from the galley of the coach meals being fricasseed or whatever they do to them. I think it may have involved cabbage. No more 8A for me. I'd rather be farther forward where I can smell the loos.

For whatever reason the last 4 flights I have booked I have not got any FCM offers. Used to get them for every flight (and 1st is wide open on all of them).
Not sure why and all were booked at DL.com.

I sprang for FR24 Silver and it was not the same frame. 4A on N370NW, 4C on N343NW. In case that was keeping anyone in suspense

Looking at a flight JFK to SEA...There has always been the glitch where when you click on "view upgrade eligibility" and it says "not upgrade eligible" for that leg even though it is. Now it says "Not Upgrade Available to First Class." Great grammar Delta

Technicalities

This seems to be a new change with Delta's IT. When I am trying to book a trip with flights operated by DL and AF in Economy, delta.com now shows these as "Multiple Cabins."

I got my hopes up, only to see the DL flight show as "Main Cabin" but the AF flight was "Economy." Sure, I guess these count as multiple cabins

When you're in F but C+ has the superior snack basket. Then you're in C+ but F has the superior snack basket.

The sheer number of random and pathetic things that Flyertalkers are willing to complain about.
