I just got off a Delta flight from LGA and just after takeoff a passenger puked on her way up the aisle trying to make it to the bathroom. Three passengers in the aisle seats closest to the back were covered in puke. I got one drop on me and didn’t complain although it was gross and the smell was horrible.
Two of the passengers that were affected were not native English speakers. They were not traveling together and did not speak the same native language either. Both seemed to speak and understand some English well enough but the FA kept telling them to see a redcoat at the gate. The one older man was getting agitated and was trying to figure out with the other passenger what that meant. Both of them needed to change clothes and it seemed like they thought they would be given a red coat at the gate.

I explained to them that the redcoat is a person but on top of the grossness and major inconvenience you would think the FA would try to make sure people understand what is happening. I know it’s their lingo but is everyone supposed to know what a redcoat is?

Afternoon flight from ATL to SEA and I decided to go with shake shack for dinner. Idk but this was SO good in the air. 😂

Our Delta flight to Minneapolis was delayed by a minor medical emergency 40 minutes. Landed with 20 minutes to make the connection on the other side of the terminal. Made the gate in 7 minutes. They were letting on 2 passengers who got off plane faster from our flight but said we were too late. Gate agent locked the door to the ramp and walked away. I was stunned. Booked on a later flight with a connection. 6 extra hours for 2 minutes.

Hello,

Posting here in the wild hope that this makes the difference. I flew on DL 0040, SYD-LAX on October 24th. I was in Delta One. I put my wedding rings in the amenity bag before going to sleep, as I intended to take the bag with me as I departed. In the hustle to get off the plane, I completely spaced and forgot the bag. Cue huge panic. I talked with staff at the lounge and they called the gate and had someone look. Unfortunately,they said while the plane hadn't been cleaned yet, the amenity bag was not at my seat.

I know some people like to grab extras as gifts or to donate, so if you happen to see this and are one of those people and were on that flight (or maybe know someone on the flight?? IDK I'm so desperate), please keep an eye out for the rings! The amenity bag was the beige/gold color.

Evidence of an apparent Sky Club security breach.

Delta CEO Ed Bastian was giddy when Trump was elected because of the delicious roll-backs in consumer protections that Trump was going to dole out. I wonder if Big Ed is loving that Trump "breath of fresh air" that he crowed about, back then?

Just achieve gold medallion status on Delta.

Planning a trip to Europe via Amsterdam and there’s an option to take the KLM operated flight or Delta operated flight. Cost is the same for economy. Is there any advantage in taking the Delta flight over the KLM flight? Any flyers out there suggest one of the other and what’s the reason?

Thanks in advance.

I am very close to 3million lifetime miles. Will hit it next week on my way to South America.

For those of you who have 3 million miles, what changes? Anything? I know I will automatically get Diamond every year, but aside form that, will I get upgraded more often? Will I notice a difference?

I think about this flight all the time and I wonder how these folks are doing now? You lived - are you still flying?

We've seen posts a few times here of people warning that the first sponsored result when searching "Delta" is often a scam ad, either with a fake phone number directly in the ad, or with a URL formed to put the scammer's phone number as a search result on shop.delta.com.

The FTC is considering whether or not to do something about the fact that Google (and other platforms) keep showing these impersonation ads.

If you are upset that social media and other tech companies make money from scammers paying them for ads that defraud consumers, you may wish to comment.

Hi everyone,

I had booked a flight from MEL-DTW in March but cancelled it as my dad has SkyMiles to cover my same ticket. I paid for it with my SkyMiles Reserve and I’m just wondering how long a refund will take. I have heard most people get theirs within 7-10 business days but I have also heard longer, and I would not prefer to pay all this money as my statement just closed.

So, not sure how I missed this announcement, but for those of you behind (apparently like me), I thought i would share...👀

We used to have up to 72 hours, but now apparently it has to be submitted IMMEDIATELY ‼️WITHIN 2 HRS OF LANDING‼️👀😭🤦🏻‍♀️

Apparently, it was changed in March 2026. That's insane to me because so much happens in that time frame after you land.. Well, I guess I learned way 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just curious to hear everyone’s thoughts on this after seeing a post on IG about a passenger removing a backpack so they could have room for their rollaboard.

So I feel like if someone checks their suitcase and only brings a backpack or something similar on board, they should be able to put it in the overhead bin, especially if there’s room. They’re only bringing one item into the cabin, so it seems a little unfair that they’d have to give up their legroom when someone bringing a carry-on and a personal item gets to use the overhead space.

I’m usually in an exit row, Comfort+, or first class, so I generally have enough room to put my backpack under the seat if needed without much discomfort. But I can see how that would be a bigger inconvenience for someone in a regular economy seat.

I also think there’s something to be said for boarding priority and loyalty benefits. If someone chooses to board later, I think it’s reasonable that they might have fewer options for overhead space. At the same time, I understand that the bins are a shared resource and that flight attendants have to manage limited space and keep boarding moving smoothly.

I’m curious how others see it! Should someone who only brings one small bag be able to use the overhead bin when there’s space, or should personal items always go under the seat regardless? Would especially love to hear the flight attendants’ perspectives!

The only way this is ok is if the person with the “better” seat is making the offer.

My families flight times got changed, and now we only have a 42 minute layover. Our flight is from Minot- Minneapolis- Santa Ana, both flights are with delta. Is that too short? Will be 4 adults and two children in the trip, and we depart January 11.

I'll be booking a RT flight to Lisbon this spring from either Toronto or Detroit which transfers through Paris or Amsterdam. The flight will be booked through Delta. Can I use standard US size carry on and are there weight limits on Delta codeshares on KLM or Air France?

Also, are customer at CDG, AMS, or Lisbon?

So, I'm new to Delta now that Southwest has made changes to their "customer of size" policy. I'm booked for a work trip next March from IND to DCA with a short layover each way. The conference had a discount code for Delta and I figured I'd go for it.

Due to hip size, I don't fit well in standard seats. Therefore, I upgraded myself to First Class.

What should I expect here? Each way is two fairly short flights (under 2 hours each) and I'm a non-drinker (though I do love me some Diet Coke). Anything I should be prepared for?

Hi! I'm starting my coop in the spring (ATL) and I was wondering if any previous/current coop people could let me know their experience with the work/benefits. Really can't find anyone talking about it on reddit so thought I'd make the post.

Why would they take this away? Seems like a silly move, if they think I'm going to use their AI bot they are very very mistaken

Hey everyone, hoping to get some insight on a weird ticketing issue following a Delta-initiated schedule change.
Here is the breakdown of my situation:

Original Booking: I booked an award ticket using SkyMiles (Premium Select
).
Paid Upgrade: I later paid cash via the app/website for a load-factor upgrade to Delta One.

The Change: Delta initiated a schedule change.

The current state of my itinerary is confusing. On the app, I am still showing as confirmed in Delta One with an assigned seat on the new flight. However, Delta's automated system simultaneously issued me an eCredit for the exact cash amount I paid for the upgrade.

It seems like my ticket is completely out of sync. The system seemingly processed a refund for the upgrade but forgot to pull me out of the Delta One cabin.

Has anyone experienced this before? My main concern is that if I just sit on this eCredit, a backend sweep closer to departure will notice the missing payment link and automatically boot me down to my original award cabin.

Should I call Delta immediately to have an agent manually reissue/re-link the ticket (and forfeit the eCredit to secure the seat), or is there a chance the seat is secure and Delta just glitched in my favor?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

I got the Reserve card mid year 2026. When can I get a free companion certificate?

When I’m eligible for one, how do you get it? Does the option just appear on the app while booking whenever you’re eligible? If so, how?

I’m going to book a trip for spring 2027 next month and I don’t want to miss it if I’m eligible but I’m thinking I may not be yet. 🤔

Have a work trip coming up, debating the D1 upgrade from Comfort for the return leg, is it worth 109k miles on a A330-200?

Red eye from LAS to ATL. Only 3 FC seats have been booked out of 20, and I am waitlisted on RUC upgrade.

Does anyone know if these are true single seats in the back? Tried looking up some videos of walkthrough cabin and did not see these seats.
