I work for a major airline in revenue management in Europe and want to clarify - Delta doesn't offer just "Delta Vouchers" for overbooked compensation... you can select gift cards including amazon, Target, best buy, and visa or american express gift cards which makes the whole process better than other North American airlines like UA, AC, and AA. I've been trying to get my airline to do something similar becuase it's so much more positive for customers. And just because you hear an announcement doesn't mean that it's actually oversold. Historical data shows a certain number of people won't show up or will misconnect, so we overbook to account for this. we do this frequently in my airline too. Therefore, the staff are making the announcements in anticipation but frequently everyone gets to board with no shows or misconnects losing their seats closer to departure time.

Wow, that's interesting. I didn't know that one. Thanks for the insight and taking the time to leave a comment!

One advantage DL has with this flight is the timing and aircraft. Arriving in Tokyo at 2pm gives you plenty of time to enjoy your first day. And being an A330 you have 2-4-2 configuration which feels less crowded

Great video. You look like a college student. How was the recline and customer service on delta airlines. What brings you to japan

Yes! All LAX is connected airside via moving walkways. American terminal 4 to Delta Terminal 2/3 will likely take about only 25 minutes, so 2 hours is plenty!

Are you sick?

Mask? Unreal.

I glad he wore a mask. Why should we care? What is unreal is the clearly sick people who don’t wear masks, hopefully you’re not one of them. :)
