Bearman Cartoon: Delta Fares Rise and Flights Fall

Posted by Bearman

Once again CVG has the highest ticket prices but nothing seems to be done about it by airport officials.

This editorial cartoon by Bearman appeared at the cincinnatibeacon.com on July 23, 2008.  It depicts a Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Airport CEO playing with a toy airplane as charts indicate a fall in Delta flights and a rise in Delta fares at CVG

    I’ve had it with Delta. Totally had it!

    As a Medallion Member- I don’t care if I ever fly again after this weekend’s adventures. I’ll be flying AirTran out of Dayton from this point on!

    1. Good Weather- Planes were all late- and I had early flights before noon.

    2. Usual air tour of the city of Atlanta- was over an hour instead of 30 minutes

    3. Missed my Cincinnati Connection- that was booked with over an hour and a half between flights. This has NEVER been an issue in the 5 years that I have been flying this flight.

    4. Sat and Sat in Atlanta and kept getting bumped despite my miles and Medallion membership and was #25 on the standby list for 3 flights to CVG.

    5. Got on the 10:45 PM flight to Cincinnati after being in Atlanta for over 6 hours after I finally started to raise hell. And I mean I was raising hell by this time.

    Now for the fun part.- The plane was filthy, smelled like puke, we were told since the flight was late- would we please line up according to zones so we could board as quickly as possible. Imagine a full MD88 full of people asking each other, “What zone are you?” Newpapers everyplace, sticky floors-it was terrible.

    As of yesterday-I have had a nasty gastrovirus flu like virus. Wanta bet where it came from? And they want us to still support them???
