No applause - even during the water cannon salute? Given Delta was the launch customer and the final operator of the MD-90 (worldwide, may I add) - it’s disappointing that the airline decided to give all the attention to the final flight of the MD-88.

Thank you for taking me onto the flight! I had to cancel my flight on DL90 because Shelter-in-Place in my area did not expire to allow me to travel.

You are correct, though some of it was Delta most of it was IAD

Well, I can't believe it but it has already been a year since the final flights. Do we know if any of these made it on to fly with other airlines?

Yes, some of the MD-88's have gone to charter companies and some to freight conversion. Boeing purchased two MD-90's. I'm not sure why but I'd love to know.
