@Delta been a loyal flyer for years but this DL5045 flight is out of control. Over 5 hours of delays with multiple issues and no updates. We aren’t even being able to deplane. Trying to get home with wife and 2.5 year old son but this is devastating. Please address.

The wonderful pop singer Marilyn McCoo (pictured with her husband Billy Davis Jr.) in a photo we took some 45 years ago, turns 82 today. We can only hope that today is the dawning of a "new age of Aquarius." @kathyireland @mccoodavis #MarilynMcCoo
