I'm learning the hard way that Delta can stand for "Doesn't Ever Leave The Airport". On a replacement plane from BOS to ATL (with onboard wifi). Landing 10 min before my ATL to BHM flight departs. Wondering if the Force will be with me at ATL. The flights are at adjacent gates, so as Bill Murray said in Caddyshack - "so I got that going for me."
