The outrage was pretty bad It was, yes it was. The outage was no piece of cake, either. |
Had two competing trips this week...train to DC or Delta to ATL. I am so happy that I procrastinated until yesterday to decide...co-workers are still waiting for rebooked flights from early this morning. Amtrak it is.
For those flying, heartfelt good wishes. |

Nice update.
http://news.delta.com/update-delta-t...ght-operations Definitely better than SWA, which didn't even offer their customers hotels during their meltdown on 7/20. |

Do you know what a one-way car rental -- if even available to them -- would cost? Not everyone is financially in the same financial position to do as you or I may.

Initially, DLTerm was the only option. New hires who were told they'd never need to know DLTerm were put in a bad spot. Some can't even print a boarding pass.

Tell that to lots of people at NRT who had to sleep on the floor as was mentioned upthread. I refuse to believe that Tokyo had no rooms, so their staff there clearly dropped the ball.

I got lucky - LAX-RDU was only 30 minutes delayed this morning.
It showed on-time until we passed boarding time. The plane wasn't there. Then they showed a 30-minute delay. I thought "no way are we boarding in 30 minutes." The plane showed up 5 minutes later. It turns out that you can board an empty plane really quickly. We pushed back on time. LAX Terminal 5, on the other hand, was a minor nightmare. I can't imagine what it's like in Atlanta. The Sky Club was pretty full but wasn't selling day passes, so it was no worse than normal. |

My employer's policy is that any airline vouchers (same for hotels, car rentals, etc.) earned on business travel that's reimbursed by the employer are to be used for later business travel, regardless of the account that's funding the travel.

Can you guys stop taking the B767 crews out of ATL please so I can get to ANC?!?

I understand that but if you were going to "splurge" one time in your life I would think it would be on your honeymoon?

So I'm stuck in MSP for the night when my flight finally gets in from SEA. Anyways the agent told me that I'd be given a voucher for a hotel. Any ideas on where they put you up around MSP? I have a corporate rate I can use if they are not the best as I was told Delta would reimburse me within reason.

I'm actually in pretty good shape. Extra staffing and minimal delays where I'm at :) but every flight is overbooked for days.
But, ya' know. I don't mind Florida, so it's not too bad :) |
Well, this is interesting - The "power outage" may just be a cover story for Delta actually being hacked.

I know. It's nice that at the very least, DL got their act together and now made it official. I'm sure they'll compensate those people at NRT who were treated the way they were.
