Nice to be flying these again

Ages since I flew a Boeing 757. These were a quantum leap over the likes of B-727s and Tridents for short/medium-haul flights, and my favourite memories of the type go back to the latter-1980s/early 1990s, when British Airways employed them on their UK domestic shuttles. Being in head-to-head competition with British Midland, the on-board service was second-to-none, with three-course meals and whatever you wanted from the drinks trolley. With BA now having taken the cheapskate route in order to maintain their share price, I no longer fly them.

 

Now that I am based in the United States, Delta has become a carrier of choice. This TPA-ATL flight was good, though I admit to have paid a premium fare.
