Not sure why DL would care about restaurants towards D. I can't ever see them giving up C1, C3 and possibly C7, considering these in relative position to the SkyClub
Jump to postWhat I never got was when they were completing construction on the D gates, they made the gates wide enough to fit a 744 on the two end gates, but didn't bother planning for customs access. I mean, I guess you could tow from the other end, but that is wear and tear on aircraft that don't necessarily...

Jump to postIt's amazing how many people rely on pensions.
