Default Delta says the problem is weather-related; that's not true

Yesterday (June 25) the 2:08 p.m. flight from Portland, Ore., to Atlanta was held at the gate for 2+ hours. The explanation was that severe weather at ATL caused the FAA to institute an air traffic control hold; no traffic would be permitted to land or depart at Hartsfield while this was in effect. This morning I went and double-checked. I counted approximately 120 arrivals during the time this mandatory hold was in effect, and about 180 departures.

Plain lying to your customers is reprehensible.

Just be honest with me; I can deal with the truth.

I was hoping the "new" Delta would demonstrate improved customer service. Boy, was I wrong.
