One commenter on X, who said their partner was on the Delta flight, reported that it “smelled horrible” and that vanilla-scented disinfectant used to mask the odor “only made it smell like vanilla s---.”

Hahahahhaha.

INCREDIBLE stench if someone on a neighboring DELTA flight could smell the dog shit on this UNITED flight

Yeah even with code shares I don't think Delta and United are ever the same carrier. Maybe?

Seems unlikely though. Sky West and smaller carriers don't usually share flights between multiple big carriers afaik.

Delta and United are different companies.

[–] huginn@feddit.it 1 points 7 months ago

Yes they are. Never said otherwise.

Code shares are weird and if you don't know about them you should look them up - what I'm saying is that code shares don't get split between two major carriers as far as I know.

So you'll never have a flight that is both United and Delta ticketed. But you'll often have a flight that is United and ANA ticketed. Or Delta and ItalAir
