well said delta. what a tedious rant. you can find fault with most airlines
Easyjet wouldn’t let me travel through over zealous application of the rules by the check in desk a few years back (other people were allowed to go). very inconvenient but i've flown with them since. they're generally fine
BA lost my bags and have delayed me plenty of times. usually they're pretty good though.
i could mention others
yes ryanair is a bit brisk and loud sometimes and that can grate occasionally, but at the end of the day they get you to malaga or marseille, almost always on time (you're dead wrong about that), in a well maintained brand new Boeing, for not that much dosh.
