I fly Delta all the time. It’s a little more expensive, but not a whole lot, and they’re very competent and pleasant. They lost my luggage only once, probably because of security (I had arrived with not a lot of lead time) but they delivered it that evening.
Sometimes the lowest price is not everything. Spend another few bucks and get a decent flight with nice people.
Two blankets? That’s luxury, eh?
And inside too. Beauty.
