Delta picked him up in a Porsche
« on: November 03, 2011, 01:55:34 AM »
From another forum:

Quote
Delta just made my night. I was flying from DFW to ATL and after we pulled up to the gate everyone began speculating about a white Porsche outside. When I walked off the plane I found out the car was waiting for me. They drove me directly to my car bypassing the whole process of having to ride the train. I just made DM but if this is any indication of the service I will get, I am sold. The driver said this was a new service offered for DM members at random. Has anyone else received this?

And he posted pics to prove it. Unreal.

Very cool indeed!

But with the amount of DM members, I would say it would be a very random (rare) occurrence...

Yeah, won't work, airlines/airport luxury hasn't evolved enough in the usa to offer such a service.

Maybe with some rich sheik flying to riyadh it will work.

And it probably won't.

If you have the money to afford true luxuries, you drive (get driven in) your car to your private plane.
In the US, its not that expensive.

I'm sure there are those that have the money and still fly commercial but they're probably not the majority or enough to make luxury a standard.

That's true... must be like a lottery thing or something.

I will tell you this from my LH travels, it is really fun to drive up in a Porsche right to a plane.
Cool that a domestic carrier would have one though!

They are private. You have to be logged into the dropbox accountholder's (AJK's?) dropbox account to see them.

I'm saying, you can't see them because they're private, he should've posted public pictures.
