WATCH: CCTV footage shows Delta Air Lines plane crash-landing at Pearson Airport

New Delhi, India
An American passenger of Delta Airlines had a "ruff" day while on a flight when a 'good boi' was given preference over him. 
On Reddit, a sulking Delta passenger posted a picture of a VIP dog, due to which he was downgraded to a bad seat.
<h2>What happened?</h2>
On Saturday (Dec 21), a Reddit user by the username ben_bob shared his grievance with Delta Airlines. In a post titled "Just Got Downgraded for a Dog," the user revealed that while travelling by a Delta Airlines flight that day, he had received an upgrade "first thing in the morning," only to be downgraded some 15 minutes later "to a worst seat than I previously had" because "something changed".

The passenger details that he was "disgruntled" by the experience, but when he boarded the flight, his annoyance was turned into "lividity" when he saw a dog in his first-class seat.

Apparently, the dog in question was a service animal, and upon contacting airline support, he was told that "you may be relocated for service animals" and there is nothing they can do.
Ben Bob then goes on to remark: "There is no way that dog has spent as much with this airline as I have... What an absolute joke."
He then questioned if there was even a point to being loyal to an airline "anymore". Bob further claimed that he stayed loyal to the airline even when "others complained about this airline mistreating customers lately and slipping in service levels," but that now he's questioning his allegiance.

<h2>Netizens react</h2>
Some users were quick to poke fun at him, commenting that the dog had a "super smug look".
"F you bro. Just. F. You," they added.
Others jested, "The dog is probably a diamond medallion 2 million miler" (Delta's top status level).
However, some users sympathised with Ben Bob's plight and commented that "the last-minute seat switch wasn't required", while others commented that the numbers of service animals seem to be increasing manifold.

A Delta Airlines flight from Atlanta to Charlotte on Wednesday (June 28) after the crew reported malfunctioning gear to air traffic control. In a statement, a Delta Airlines spokesperson said that Flight 1092 landed safely without the use of nose gear at Charlotte Douglas International Airport.

A Delta Airlines flight from Atlanta to Charlotte on Wednesday (June 28) after the crew reported malfunctioning gear to air traffic control. In a statement, a Delta Airlines spokesperson said that Flight 1092 landed safely without the use of nose gear at Charlotte Douglas International Airport. Passengers aboard the flight disembarked using the jet slide. The flight landed safely and no injuries were reported. Photographs from the runway showed wheels on the ground under the wings, but the nose of the aircraft on the runway. The jet slide extended from the door of the aircraft with firefighters helping passengers disembark. The Boeing 717 aircraft had 96 passengers, two pilots, and three flight attendants on board. What happened to the aircraft? As per the statement, the trouble began when the pilots received a “nose gear unsafe” indication as the aircraft approached the Charlotte Douglas International Airport and so they flew by the air traffic control tower so controllers could visually inspect the plane. Controllers saw the nose landing gear doors were open, but the gear had not descended and the pilots landed the plane without the nose gear.

An unidentified passenger shared a video of the landing with WCNC-TV which showed passengers braced with their heads down and arms holding on to the seat back in front of them as the aircraft landed. 'We were going to hear a big thud': Passenger Speaking to the news agency Associated Press, passenger Chris Skotarczak said that if he had not seen the aircraft's shadow without the nose wheel down and been told to brace for landing, he would have thought nothing was wrong. “The pilot told us, we’re going to land, we’re going to hear a big thud and we’re going to hear a lot of grinding,” Skotarczak said and highlighted the emergency landing was smoother than a regular landing. All passengers were taken to the terminal. They were asked to leave everything else on the aircraft as they left. Such landing gear failures 'very rare': Former pilot Gregory A. Zahornacky, a former airline pilot, told the Associated Press that such landing gear failures are "very rare" and that commercial airlines in the United States have a “fantastic” record of maintaining planes. Zahornacky said the crew did what they were supposed to do when the nose gear did not work as expected, which is to extend the rest of the plane’s landing gear to absorb energy as the plane touches the runway. “I think there’s probably very minimal damage to the aircraft, which is secondary … to the safety of the passengers and the crew. So I think that’s the big takeaway here is that everything was handled the correct way and safely done,” he added.
