Delta Carrying Mets to World Series? I thought Daniel Murphy Did!

Delta Airlines

It’s been tough being a New York Mets fan over the years but 2015 has been a really great season. With the World Series starting on Tuesday night, it will be the Mets first time back in 15 years.

I’ve been watching more baseball than usual due to the playoffs. Since the WS doesn’t start until next week, Lucas can have the TV back until the series begins!

If you’ve been following the playoffs, you may have thought that Daniel Murphy’s record six straight playoff games with a home runs streak led them to their upcoming World Series appearance. But you’d be wrong…. Continue reading Delta Carrying Mets to World Series? I thought Daniel Murphy Did!

One of the bigger news stories over the past week has been the killing of Cecil the Lion in Zimbabwe by an American dentist.

Cecil was a famous lion due to his black mane and was a star attraction at Hwange National Park where he was illegally lured out to be hunted on private property.

The American, Dr. Walter Palmer from Minnesota paid over $50,000 for the hunt and shot Cecil using a bow and arrow. The lion was then killed by a bullet after being tracked for 40 painful hours. Palmer claims that he did not know the hunt was illegal since he used local guides. Continue reading Delta Airlines Bans Transport of Hunting Trophies

Is Delta Airlines really making flying better? Let’s take a look. Continue reading How Delta’s Making Flying Better

When it comes to Delta Airlines, on an almost daily basis all I seem to hear is bad news…

I haven’t been on top of all of the upcoming negative changes since I am not a mileage runner and I also don’t have loyalty to Delta. However, if I fly on a revenue flight with Delta in the future it sure will be a pain if miles earned from flying goes down. Continue reading Cheers! Delta Adds More In-Flight Craft Beer Options

Delta Ordered Over 222,000,000… in 2013

DeltaLogoIt always seems to be a fun time when snacks are given out during a flight. Maybe it’s not exactly fun but it is a good way to break up the boredom and have something to do. These days it seems like a big surprise or better yet, a reward when snacks are offered due to how stingy the airlines have become.

The funniest part of receiving  an airline snacks is the fact that it’s probably not even something that you really wanted! Did I really need that tiny bag of pretzels? What happened to the honey roasted flavor that used to come with my peanuts?  Continue reading Delta Ordered Over 222,000,000… in 2013
