Delta is running a “Route Race” where they say they’re letting SkyMiles members and their employees vote on one European island that will be added as a summer 2026 destination.
Eventually he was handcuffed and escorted off the aircraft onto the tarmac and transported to police holding facility Building 610. Footage shows, he quipped about wanting McDonald’s, and deputies… took his food order while processing him.
A Delta Air Lines passenger sitting at the bulkhead was spotted barefoot, with their feet up on the cabin divider. Their shoes were on the floor, with socks crumpled in the aisle.
And they were wearing very short shorts – or possibly underwear – but seeingly no pants.
A passenger accidentally boarded Delta flight 607 from New York JFK to Las Vegas on Sunday. He meant to fly to Los Angeles.
After pitching the role that AI will play in generating incremental revenue for the airline to investors, Delta now says there’s really nothing to see here.

I’ve covered the man who cooked baby back ribs in a hotel bathroom before. He took his talents to the sky, cooking up a snack of garlic shrimp and mash – in a Delta Air Lines lavatory.

Delta Air Lines flight 2809 from Minneapolis to San Francisco had to go around and attempt to land a second time due to low visibility in fog, and was delayed about 9 minutes, but was otherwise like any other flight – until it reached the gate.
Flight attendants have grueling multi-day trips, and they can’t wait for their bags at baggage claim between flights or they’d risk delaying other flights (and passengers!). On the other hand, if nothing happens to change their trip sequence they could check their bag to that night’s destination! The airline might lose their bags… just like with a passenger.
American Airlines CEO Robert Isom sharply criticized Delta Air Lines for using AI to manipulate ticket pricing, calling Delta’s approach “bait and switch” and “not appropriate,” pledging American won’t follow suit.
Every Delta passenger onboard Delta flight 205 from Stockholm to New York JFK today is entitled to $705 (600 euros) in cash compensation, after one of the pilots was arrested this morning for failing a breathalyzer test as the plane was “about to take off” and the flight was cancelled.
