Delta Airlines has fired back at Ann Coulter — revealing on Twitter how her two-day temper tantrum was over a measly $30.

“We’re sorry you did not receive the preferred seat you paid for and will refund your $30,” the company tweeted on Sunday night. SEE ALSO Delta allegedly boots Ann Coulter from reserved seat Delta allegedly boots Ann Coulter from reserved seat

“Additionally, your insults about our other customers and employees are unacceptable and unnecessary,” it said, in response to Coulter’s weekend-long Twitter rant.

Without a doubt. Ann Coulter's status as a take-no-prisoners conservative makes her a risk-free target for Delta. They'd never dare deliver a snotty response to a prominent lib.

With that said, is there a more boring, overdone social-media genre than the 'Attention, world, I'm flying on {insert airline here} and it sucks' genre of twitter, instagram, facebook? Of course, whatever airline you're on sucks. They all do. Commercial airline travel is a miserable experience but if you want go somewhere far fast for a relatively small amount of money, it's the only game in town.

Snowflakes unite!! All of the snowflakes are in a twist over this. I wonder how many of them even ever pay for the larger seat upgrade.

According to a picture on Ann Coulter’s original tweet, the flight attendant who threw her out of her paid seat was a black female. The notion that this was a racially motivated act is not out of the realm of the possible.

Agree. Look what the doc got from United.

Has Delta issued a statement as to WHY they removed Ann from her pre-paid seat?

Ann can hold her own. I’m not sure Delta doubling down is the wisest move on their part but we shall see.

No. She was not “made whole.” She was forced to sit in a seat with less access room for a long flight. She was inconvenienced. She was not given an explanation from the crew. She was the victim of a bait and switch. It’s not about measly $30 and you know it.

I believe that Timpanagos1 is a fraud. Posting history is very antagonistic and suspicious.

I’m wondering when LiveNation is going to start doing this with concert seats. You THINK you’ve bought your seat but when you get to the civic arena, they’ve gotten a better offer from a later buyer who gets your 4th row seat and you get moved to the balcony. Hey, you’ll get a refund on the price difference between what you paid and what your new seat lists for.

And don’t try scalping your plane ticket. You are not authorized to do that! That’s why we’ve had to present IDs to get on planes since the 1980s. Certainly didn’t stop the 9-11 hijackers and with California and other states knowingly issuing drivers licenses to foreigners with fake names, it certainly isn’t about “Security”.

4chan should look into the background of the black stewardess. See if she is a registered democrat, campaign contributions and social media posts. 10-1 odds this was racially and politically motivated.

They better watch it. That guy that got roughed up on Untied was a professional poker player. Ann Coulter is a lawyer. Just sayin’.

It’s not about security, it’s about makin’ the Amurrican public “feel safe.”

Notice how they set themselves up as the authority in their made up “parent - child” relationship, and thus scold her.

Who are they to determine what is “unacceptable and unnecessary”. Readers will make that decision, thank you very much.

Delta has sucked since the 70s. Luckily for me I’ve only flown them a few times.

Would Delta get snippy like this against a leftist SJW?

Doubtful

I’ve actually had good service with American. They’ve been on-time and honored all my upgrades. That, and my baggage has always arrived undamaged.

I have had bad experiences with Delta also. Glad Ann C. is not just accepting it.

It’s about protecting the right of the airlines to overbook the flights and if you sell off your return ticket (because roundtrips at least once upon a time could possibly be cheaper than a single fare one way) then they are less likely to have open seats.

Now the airlines just kick you off and take the higher fare and “screw you”.
