Delta took what it called a 'creative' step to solve a massive baggage problem for passengers flying through troubled Heathrow Airport

New York Delta Air Lines took what it called a"creative" step to solve a massive baggage problem for passengers flying through troubled Heathrow Airport. Others might call the move extreme: the airline flew a plane from London to its hub in Detroit packed with 1,000 lost bags and zero passengers.
