Not just Delta but why subject yourself to flying any airline these days.
If you live in NJ and want to visit your aging mother in South Florida every month, or you want to go on vacation to places like Norway, you have to fly on an airline unless you're way wealthier than I am.

For the past 5 years I and one or 2 others have driven across the country for competitions and in all the instances it was either as cheap or cheaper than flying, we’re able to take what we wanted/needed, didn’t have the hassle, saw cool places and met neat people.
Our longest straight run was return from Ennis NC to the SF Bay Area in 46.5 hours. If you don’t want to non stop there’s always low cost motels or sleeping on the ground :-)
