Delta Air Lines Says It Will Suspend Special Services for Congress Members

Airport escorts and “red coat” assistance for lawmakers will be suspended, the airline said on Tuesday, citing the extended partial government shutdown.

Almost as if they shouldn't be getting special treatment in the first place!

Wasn’t it Delta that added an entire flight so some congresscritter could get home easier?

Maybe it was Continental.

United had a "chairman's flight" between NY and a SC airport that was created so the chairman of the Port Authority of NY/NJ could fly to his vacation home on the weekends.
