Delta postpones media day in wake of bad airline press
Delta Air Lines has postponed its “media day” that had been planned to take place this week in New York City. The move is the latest fallout from a month of bad press that’s hit the US airline industry since an April 9 passenger-dragging incident on a United Express flight made headlines around the globe. Delta communications chief Ned Walker said: “With the recent focus by Congress on airline customer service issues that have gone viral on social media, we decided that the timing is not right to showcase Delta’s product innovations and global strategy”. Prior to the wave of bad airline news that began in April, Delta was expected to focus on items like planned cabin upgrades and new airplanes due to begin arriving at the carrier in the coming years. <br/>
