Three out of four legs of my round trip from BWI to FL Delta would not allow me to sit beside my wife. They claim change of equipment which is deltaspeak for trying to gouge us for more money to sit next to our travel companions. They charge a reservation fee for every other row which intentionally is designed to not allow people to sit next to each other. This is going too far and violates the latest regulation on fee transparency, and presents a safety issue and unhappy customers. There was a parent behind me whose kids were at the front of the bus and spouse several rows behind. If I treated my customers this way I would be out of business. I will not use this airline again. This is why I don't fly anymore unless absolutely necessary.
