We're entitled to repairs just like paying customers. My bag got trashed and I asked the question at the luggage counter. I filled out a report and sent my bag in for repairs. The bad news-there is something like a 48 hour limit to report it and you're going to be without your bag for a couple weeks.

I think this is a more realistic & fair appraisal of the Ex-Im Bank:

RealClearPolicy- Time To Retire The Export-Import Bank

Forbes was the most critical magazine of Delta's interest in the Trainer Oil Refinery, calling it "stupid". Most analysts think it will help Delta's bottom line. I haven't been impressed with Forbes articles recently.

That guy in the article was all over the place. First he asserts that the Ex-Im bank only gives loans to companies that have no access to credit but then claims Delta pays higher interest because they have a poor credit rating. Do these other carriers have high credit ratings or do they not have access to credit, you have to pick one or the other.

Second, he claims that there is no subsidy in the Ex-Im bank. Then he claims if we end the Ex-Im then carriers will all go to Airbus because they have subsidies. Which is it, are there subsidies or not?

This was probably written by a Boeing PR guy and handed off to Forbes along with a large advertisement buy.
