I always admired Delta since they were trying to be like it was meant to be, but even Delta has gone south the last few years.

Pilots are on here whining and crying about their pay, pension and God forbid they might even have to work for a living. But they have in fact just become bus drivers (same lousy attitude and service). Make your airline better by providing better customer service, better service more passengers will fly with you, more passengers more money. And more money will eventually get you a pay raise.

With the basics not there you are not going to make it.
Why can the "other" (rest of the world) airlines do it and not here in the USA?
