![]() ![]() I went to Delta to get the answer, and this is what spokesperson Michael Thomas had to say. Presumably the decision wasn’t made long before that. Less than 4 hours before the new, earlier departure time, Michael got a text from Delta saying the flight would go 15 minutes early. It actually changed the estimated departure time like it would in a delay. Sure enough, Delta didn’t just shut the doors early. But wait, that’s not what’s happening here. Well this one seems obvious, right? I mean airlines close their doors early all the time, and it’s not uncommon for them to push back before scheduled departure. Look at the screen, it’s scheduled for 10:15, status is leaving at 10:00. It looks like it wasn’t only us, but also the flight to Atlanta. ![]() Tonight, about three and a half hours prior to departure, we got a text telling us that our flight on Delta was leaving early.
