What a crummy airline
Man, I hate D*ELT*A. The extra astericks are so a Google search won’t result in a hit for that crappy airborne bus service. I hadn’t flown them in a long time, but had to in order to fly direct from PHX to CVG (Cincinnati) a couple days ago.
Crappy, you say? Why?
1. You have to pay for food. A LOT. But then, it’s not BAD food, so I guess that kind of cancels it all out.
2. You have to pay $2 for headphones. Or more accurately, you have to pay $2 for an adapter for your own headphones in order to watch the movie.
3. The seating is CRAMPED. Big time. Much more so than any other carrier I’ve been on recently.
4. The fli*gh%t atte#ndant*s were snippy and kind of rude. Especially, when about 1/2 an hour from the end of the flight, I was told I had to turn off my iPod, because it "transmits a signal that could cause us to land at the wrong airport." And she was pissed, not kidding, when she told me this.
Land at the wrong airport? What bullshit. Do they really tell her that might happen? If so, and she believes it, wouldn’t that make her just about the dumbest ass in the world?
If I thought I might get away with it and not be labelled a terrorist, I would have told this moron that the CRTs hanging from the cabin ceiling throw about a thousand times the RF my little iPod can muster, yet they ran those until the landing gear came down.
And guess what?
We ended up at the right airport.
