That’s the international terminal at Atlanta’s airport.

and yes, Delta does it right.

I have been on a Delta “Angel Flight” where the Captain announced the situation and the honors due the hero flying home in the cargo hold. A fairly young (to me anyways) Army Sergeant in his dress blues was on board. The Captain instructed that we should all remain in our seats let him depart first as he was accompanying one of our heroes on his last flight home.

NO ONE acted up or disturbed the situation.

Frankly it was heart-wrenching.

I couldn’t even tell the story to others without chocking up.

Thank you for that. I just sent them a thank you note using their web page.

Choked up just reading your story - would have been able to hold back tears if on one of those flights.
