What a joke. So my fiance and I booked the flight 6 months in advance because it is extremely difficult for us both to take off work. She is a banker, and i work in EMS. We both got approved for 2 weeks in December for our anniversary trip and not to mention, she is from there and hasnt been back since she moved to the USA 13 + years ago. Delta decided that for *their* convenience, they would take the liberty of adjusting our flight to have a 5 hour layover in new york. I specifically set up the flight so that it would be direct, not a 10 - 12 hour experience. Her family is supposed to meet us at the airport, and rolling in at midnight on 12/1 is not going to work for them. We also booked a rental to be picked up on 12/1 and this causes obvious problems with that too. I called, the first representative was very bland and not empathetic to the situation at all, so i asked to be transferred to a manager. The manager, Mark, was also extrodinarily bland and refused to do anything about it. He said the only thing he was willing to do would be to either schedule us on a flight later in the day for less layover time (but still landing at midnight) or push our trip back a whole day to the following day. Major inconvenience considering the car situation, its our anniversary, and the fact that when i book a flight - it is booked for what works with our schedule. I dont book it to be chopped and screwed around for the airlines convenience. When i asked mr. Mark for a partial refund or a voucher/upgrade, he would not do it and again was very bland. To put it bluntly, ill not be flying delta in the future and ill be sure to share my experience everywhere i am able to review this airline/anytime anyone in my life brings up wanting to take a trip anywhere. GREAT job delta, you have some amazing ways of screwing people around. I hope you go bankrupt again.
