What's wrong with Delta, part 1

A listener wrote to us: "I'm a United employee, so I do enjoy hearing about how much everyone except UA and DL sucks. That said, a more challenging series of episodes might be 'what's wrong with DL or UA'...so tell us where you think we suck, and you might as well do a similar episode for the other two airlines that are doing well." This week: Brian Sumers and Brett Snyder do just that, for Delta. We would like to thank SES [https://www.ses.com/ifc] for sponsoring The Air Show. Questions, responses or feedback?
