Got such good news/treatment from Delta Airlines to get to this cruise, I needed to share:
We'd booked to fly direct months ago from Seattle to Orlando overnight on the 7th arriving on the 8th...
And, although arriving the same day as boarding the cruise is a chance to take, we did since it was a direct flight early enough.
However, a week or two ago, Delta cancelled this direct flight and rebooked us on an itinerary that took us from Seattle to Atlanta overnight, then changing planes (55 minutes only!!) for the jont to Orlando the same morning of arrival.
I became worried that the time to change flights in Atlanta was too short, that we may make it but what about our luggage...
But after the bomb scare at MCO last Friday, I was reminded that you can't control the crazinous that can occur at an airport!
So, I called Delta today to express my fright that we could miss our cruise or our luggage could, and I would like to respectfully request that they waive the change fees so we could rebook to a more "safer" flight itinerary for our situation.
Not only did the agent waive change fees, he said while I was describing the situation, he'd already found a direct flight from Seattle to Orlando during the day of April 7th....
And he was able to book us on this flight at no additional charge!!
What!?! We'd booked the red-eye to save $$ and ended up on the day flight!
Very AWESOME customer service from DELTA!!
So,
Now we need to book a hotel the night before the cruise!
Where are you staying?? (Port Canaveral area)?
