Delta Airlines has suspended the Specialty Service for member of Congress. They usually get VIP treatment such as skipping the long lines and escorts through the terminals, but they'll just have to suck it up and rub elbows with the commoners now. If they can't get their shit together and fund DHS, they deserve to be treated just like the rest of the cattle. Personally, I don't think they should get any "special services". Let them stand in line like everyone else.

Quote:Delta Air Lines has cut off special services for members of Congress at airports, as the industry continues to feel the effects of the government's failure to pay Transportation Security Administration workers
On Tuesday morning, Delta issued a statement saying it would temporarily suspend specialty services for members of Congress "due to the impact on resources from the longstanding government shutdown."
Members of Congress are given special treatment at airports, including expedited screening, escorts through airports to bypass long security lines, and dedicated reservation desks that, among other things, allow them to make last-minute changes.
