Apparently, it's not going to be a problem at Delta next year:

YEAR 2000 COMPUTER BUG NOT AN ISSUE FOR DELTA AIR LINES
RESERVATIONS

04 Feb 1999


ATLANTA, GA, February 4, 1999 - Delta Air Lines began taking
reservations today for travel on January 1, 2000. Delta's
reservations computer systems have been evaluated and prepared for the
year 2000 and are operating normally.

"Delta's computerized reservation systems are performing precisely
as planned," said Charlie Feld, Chief Information Officer-Delta
Technology. "This was one of the first computer systems addressed in
Delta's year 2000 program, in coordination with WORLDSPAN, our CRS
partner that operates and maintains the system."

Delta's year 2000 program, begun in the fall of 1996, includes all
systems necessary for successful operation of the airline.

"We are pleased with the progress our people are making in testing
our remediated systems," said Walter Taylor, Vice President, Airline
Operations and Year 2000 at Delta Technology, Delta's wholly owned
subsidiary. "Testing is one of five phases for our critical systems
and we are on schedule to meet our mid-year deadline. We will
continue to monitor all systems well into 2000. Delta plans to
operate successfully into and through the year 2000."

"WORLDSPAN plans to successfully support Delta and our other
airline partners, as well as the travel agent community that relies on
our products, with uninterrupted service," said Sue Powers, vice
president - Sales and Marketing for WORLDSPAN. "The successful
operation of Delta's reservations system is indicative of the
excellent work of our year 2000 team."

Delta's year 2000 program also includes a thorough evaluation of
every service provider, business partner, airport, government agency
and others on whom the business relies. Delta coordinates gathering
of year 2000 information with the Air Transport Association and the
International Air Transport Association. Both trade groups solicit
data from airports, air traffic service providers, and common
suppliers so member airlines have a uniform, central information
source.

WORLDSPAN offers a broad selection of reservations, ticketing and
office automation products to the U.S. and international travel
industry. WORLDSPAN's world headquarters are in Atlanta and the
international division headquarters are in London.
Delta Technology, Inc. supports Delta Air Lines in achieving business
goals by providing leading edge information technology solutions and
services. The company is based in Atlanta.

Delta, named Airline of the Year by Air Transport World magazine,
is the world's most flown carrier. More than 105 million passengers
traveled on Delta in 1998. Delta, Delta Express, the Delta Shuttle,
the Delta Connection carriers and Delta's Worldwide Partners operate
5,211 flights each day to 353
cities in 56 countries.
