Atlanta was the only passenger flight

Sitting next to an empty seat on a plane is a luxury for many airline passengers, but a Delta passenger was much luckier - he was the only passenger on a flight from New Orleans to Atlanta.

Stephen Schneider flew home and, without even waiting, received a “private” flight, writes USA Tuday.

“I was very nervous. I couldn’t believe it, it seemed to me that I had missed my flight,” Schneider shared his impressions.

But he was on his flight, although he was the only passenger, since all the others were transferred to other flights due to the delay. Delta tried to contact him to report a flight transfer, but the company failed because they incorrectly recorded the passenger number.

Therefore, when he arrived at the landing and he was offered to change the flight or leave his previous booking, he chose the second option and turned out to be the only passenger on the plane with 160 seats.

“At first I felt very bad, I didn’t want the plane to fly just because of me. But they told me that the plane had to return to Atlanta anyway,” Schneider said.

Delta said they were glad that their passenger had survived the solo flight experience.
