Lets hope the changes are breaking everything and they have to roll them back.
Not like anything is actually tested for ease of use anyway.

Website and search/booking engine are horrible slow with the new UI changes today.
Additionally, the following is no longer readily presented during flight searches:
Connection City
Layover Time
That is only available if you click on 'details' for each and every flight.

The good news is if this keeps up,, those of us who have tickets won't have problems getting upgrades because the planes will be empty.

The speed on the Delta site is approaching that of the modem era -- next thing they'll do is bring back propellor drive planes and call that an "improvement"

Worked fine for me...
I just booked a trip LAX-MAD and it worked fine for me. They changed the flight selection screen, though. If you choose flexible dates it shows lowest coach price and lowest Biz/1st screen on same page now.

Disappearing Jobs: High-Paying Careers With No Future
Travel Agent
Call it the Attack of the Roaming Gnome: Online sites such as Travelocity, Priceline.com, Expedia, and Orbitz have decimated the ranks of travel agents as consumers increasingly book their own trips. The BLS expects 1,200 fewer travel agents to be employed in 2018 than in 2008. And the number of traditional travel agencies has been sliced in half from a peak of 44,000 in 1997 to about 20,000 today, according to Douglas Quinby of PhoCusWright, a travel industry research company based in Sherman, Connecticut.

I was trying to bring up an itinerary in Firefox this afternoon and the screen kept going back to the itinerary list page. This happened consistently 4 or 5 times. When I switched to Chrome, I was able to bring up the itinerary just fine. I went back to try Firefox, and again it wouldn't bring up the itinerary.
Just now I was trying to select an EC seat on an CDG-ATL flight in Firefox, and the website refused to save the seat after selecting it. I tried using IE and had the same behavior. Then I tried using the Delta iPhone app, and it wouldn't let me select an EC seat at all. Finally, I tried to save the seat using Chrome and it finally stuck.
So I guess in my case, Chrome has seemed to work best and the other browsers and apps have had issues.

I was trying to book ORD-LGA this afternoon and it was slow as molasses and would not go through. Ended up breaking the trip into two one way tickets to get the damn thing booked. 
Brilliant.
Brilliant.
