There is it.....???

brilliant way to increase revenue - suddenly impose a $5 fee for the pleasure of making a reservation and refusing to waive it when the website crashes 
i can't wait to see how much more i will be paying for my fares now ... but have not been able to access the website for 4 hours now

Hmmm, they should be fired. In today's world, they should have been prepared for this. A total embarrassment for them.
But, this is Delta which thinks like a Dinosaur so they probably think its a great sign that they crashed their website.

Pretty funny. I went to check something on Delta's website, but couldn't get on, so I came here to see if I could find my answer (I did) and I see this post.
Still not working. This is getting annoying.
