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)follow @the-future-now
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.
