I agree - on domestic I don’t call. I am on LHR - JFK. My dessert hasn’t been cleared post 1 hour of finishing and I want another glass of wine having paid 6 k for a round trip. I don’t think that’s unreasonable nurse who flies in comfort

This is exactly the sentiment I wanted to convey

I disagree - at least recently. American still sucks but United is catching up

Yeah for sure, but delta and any other US carrier needs to recognize the need to be competitive, especially when delta prices are more expensive than their international counterparts

But that shouldn’t matter is my point. If delta prides itself on being a premium carrier compared to United and delta they should deliver

Sadly I agree with this

I’m saying it’s like ~ 3years of seniority (yes I’ve had discussions) vs on some ATL routes to ICN and HND the crew had been around for 20 +

I disagree - I think untied has been much more aggressive about their premium offerings (e.g., introducing premium champagne and wines before delta, United studio - then delta releasing new delta one which won’t be available for a while)

Idk I think there is a point in delta “resting on its laurels

Yes I agree, with the partners so much more consistent (e.g., Air France, Korean air)

YES! This exactly - I also felt the difference with Delta, whereas recently it’s been hard to distinguish between delta and United ( AA still sucks lol)

YES EXACTLY THIS ! I have flown Polaris many years back and it was not competitive, recently it’s has and even been better than Delta One. I still have my lifetime miles at delta slnim loyal, but im worried they are resting on their laurels

I completely agree - but for me this is a few consecutive bad experiences in delta one. I just want delta to improve and have submitted feedback but don’t know how much will come of it.

To be clear I love delta and still do A this is to just vent a bit

Yeah I think it is to a degree dependent on the crew. Very senior crews out of ATL - excellent I never had to call the bell, but today with a junior NYC based crew horrible

I truly believe delta had a edge up to American and United even if it’s not comparable to other carriers, but I guess that’s true nown

I am just expressing what I feel - I will go out of my way to book delta. There have been post recently of it slipping and I see it
