Ann Coulter Goes to War — With Delta: ‘Worst Airline in America’
Sometimes the famous are just like the rest of us.
Conservative firebrand Ann Coulter found herself in a very familiar predicament Saturday evening — on the receiving end of tyranny/incompetence from a U.S. airline. The perpetrator this time, was Delta.
Just when you think it’s safe to fly them again, the worst airline in America is STILL: @Delta

While the title of “worst airline” is a close call in a world which also includes United, Coulter continued in rapid succession with her characteristic tact. The issue appears to be a decision by the airline to remove her from an extra leg room spot to a more traditional seat in coach.
… barbaric.
Does your union hate you, @Delta? Not really worth spending all that money on planes when @Delta gate staff give your seat away.

“Why are you taking me out of the extra room seat I specifically booked, @Delta?’ Flight attendant: “I don’t know.” pic.twitter.com/a0M1faZXMu

In what must have been an amazing plane fight, Coulter even decided to shame the person who took her seat and what seems to be her very unsuspecting family.
.@Delta didn’t give my extra room seat to an air marshall or tall person. Here’s the woman given my PRE-BOOKED seat: pic.twitter.com/iDNB8xXXOd

Hey @Delta, you mind telling me why it was an “emergency” to move someone else into the seat I had carefully chosen in advance and booked?

Also, @Delta, your wifi doesn’t work — probably to prevent passengers from tweeting from the plane about how they’re being treated.

The airline does not appear to have publicly responded to Coulter’s tirade — but needless to say, we’ve all been there. Some problems are truly bipartisan.
For good measure, Coulter ended the rant with a plug for Jet Blue.
.@JetBlue has free wifi and doesn’t wantonly remove passengers from their assigned seats, booked in advance FOR A REASON. @Delta sucks.

UPDATE ——— it continues!
So glad I took time investigate the aircraft & PRE-BOOK a specific seat on @Delta, so some woman could waltz at the last min & take my seat.

But at least @Delta was nice @ it, summarily snatching my ticket from my hand & ordering me to move w/o explanation, compensation or apology
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) July 16, 2017
Suckiest @Delta moved me from my PRE-BOOKED SEAT & gave it to some woman, not elderly, child, or sick. I have pictures so don’t lie, @Delta!
