I'm a bit shocked to hear about Delta, because as you say, Delta has (in my experience) always been horrible. I mean, it wasn't Continental, but still. It seems ridiculous that airlines will charge people who volunteer to be responsible for the emergency exits, but then again, most people just want to sit there for the extra leg room. If they start charging to use the bathroom, I will feel compelled to answer the call of nature as publicly as possible. I'm curious though, as to why airlines had to resort to the current model when there are so many flights. I almost wish there were some kind of nationwide public air service, but I'm sure that I would complain about that too.
