Expecting a friend on a Delta Flight and attempted to use their flight status three different ways using the flight number, both airports, and their latest update list.
The flight does not snow up in any of the three ways. Using their flight schedules I can find the flight to verify I entered the correct info. Using two different web searches I got the information. Rechecked Delta's system and still no flight.
I have not flown Delta in a very long time... And this looks like one more thing they do poorly and one more reason to avoid them.

I don't know, I use them quite a bit and other than the occasional delay i've been pretty happy with their service. If you don't have it, get their app on your phone, i use that exclusively when traveling with them.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

I like Delta, Alaska, and Southwest. They cover most of my flights.

Never had a problem in several decades flying with them and Northwestern before they bought them out.
Family flys back and forth from Ca. to Mn. several times a year. Never had a problem with tracking.
We all use flight aware.

Just type their flight number into a search engine. All the flight trackers will pick it up and you'll have your answer. Delta jacked up my trip home a few days ago from Boston. We had 6 hours of delays getting back.

https://flightaware.comWorks very well for both commercial and private aircraft. When flying ourselves to meet people I just give them the tail # I'm flying.

I don't use Delta because from here, you can be flying to the North Pole and they'll route you through Atlanta first.

It has arrived, but their website does not know it yet! I used other apps to get it.

American sucks the worst I've ever used, by far.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
