For $401, you can get a front seat to the total solar eclipse on a Delta flight

  • The upcoming solar eclipse has sent some Americans into a frenzy trying to find last-minute solutions
    to view the once-in-a-lifetime event.
  • Delta has a standard flight
    path
    from Portland, Oregon, to Atlanta which not only follows the
    majority of the eclipse’s path, but will also be airborne during the
    event.
  • This option was recently discovered by Todd Evans,
    who overlaid the path of the flight with the path of the eclipse using
    FlightAware and NASA’s eclipse data and shared his findings on Reddit.
  • Passengers
    on Delta flight 2466 will get an above-the-clouds, low-atmosphere
    vantage point
    with no more hassle than what airport security provides.
    This is a surefire way to avoid eclipse traffic; in fact, it’s probably
    the most relaxed way to experience the eclipse firsthand in its
    totality. Read more (8/10/17)

Not my airline but shit, this is a good deal

I am so bummed about missing this.
The next one is only in 2024… if we are still around then.

At least my company is throwing a “partial eclipse” party.
