But yes... Delta's interline agreements are lagging behind the industry. Airlines like UA has ZED business class agreements with Lufthansa, Swiss, Air Canada etc.
Delta employees can only standby for coach class on ZED tickets with other airlines. I wish we negotiate reciprocal business ZED agreements with airlines which offer it.
Anybody have factual data on the ancillary costs to fly in business/1st on there own metal at United? How about American? What is the cost structure for Zed upgrade?
Agreed, it would be nice to have the option for the ZED...but will take our plan over UAL/AA for "own" metal
