Specifically, we would like to assess how informed their Disability Customer Service Representatives know Delta's policies concerning the carriage of service animals in the aircraft cabin and their ability to communicate these policies to their customers.</span><br><span></span><br><span>We are seeking individuals willing to help us with our assessment by calling Delta's disability customer service line and ask some specific questions. So that our assessments are valid and reliable, we would like to discuss this initiative with those willing to make one call and send a written narrative of the call. If you are interested in helpin out with this effort, please join us for this meeting.</span><br><span></span><br><span>When Sunday September 16, 2018</span><br><span>When: 8:00 p.m. Eastern (7:00 p.m. Central; 6:00 p.m. Mountain; & 5:00 p.m. Pacific)</span><br><span>Call-in Number: 641-715-3300</span><br><span>Participant Code: 560908#</span><br><span></span><br><span>We look forward to gathering some great information to help make our work more effective.
