Delta or United?

Both of these airlines are charging me the same price to fly in in July (and its the cheapest). Their checked bag rate is the same. I have never flown United..is it any better than Delta?

Which airline do you ladies prefer to use?

Re: Delta or United?

I fly about 4 times a month...United is slightly better. JetBlue & Virgin are my favorite airlines.

Re: Delta or United?

I just flew Delta this past weekend, and while I've never flown United, I can't say I'd recommend Delta, so it could be worth a shot!

ITA Jet Blue is better than most and Virgin has a reputation for being a top airline, but most times when I'm leaving the plane and they say 'Thank you for choosing _____' I think to myself, I wish I had a private jet

I've had seriously the WORST experiences with United (flights cancelled twice, baggage issues, looooong lines in Hawaii) - I am never flying with them again.

OH Wonderful!!

DH and I just booked with Delta vacations, coz they were the cheapest (airfare plus hotel) to head out to Vegas.....I hope we don't have any issues.

We normally fly Jetblue, but their prices were out of control. We got our vacation (hotel and airfare) for about a little over $1,000. Jetblue was trying to charge us just for the airfare $1,000. Seeing how everyone dislikes Delta I am hoping we don't have that bad of a flight, coz if we do, DH is not going to be a happy camper.

THIS. UGHHHHH. I fly between NYC/Chicago for work and United is my company's preferred carrier. All I can say is....HORRIFIC. I have had flights straight up cancelled for no apparent reason (sunshine in chicago and sunshine in NY)....Chicago is a united hub so pehaps I am jsut getting the brunt of bad stuff bc of where I'm flying to/from...but YIKES...united BLOWS.
