Delta clamping down on Live Shipments!

The problem isn’t Delta not shipping. The problem is the new temperature restrictions :)
 
He told me no temperature. Will be at customer risk and suggested pm/overnight ship outs
 
Assuming that is true and that guy knew what he was talking about, that’s very good news :)
 
You could tell me Delta has launched a new rule that requires all children below the age of 8 months to be stored in the overhead compartments and I would believe you.
 
I look at the forecast before I plan on buying anything related to fish or coral

Excellent point, I do same - departure point, Louisville, and arrival. I concluded long ago that if you rely on somebody else's good judgement you are likely to be disappointed as not.

Now says this, which was not there a couple days ago.

Only shipments exempt from the temperature limits above are birds (including day-old chicks and poultry), cold-blooded animals (including live fish and live seafood) and mice or rats bred for research purposes.
