"Eclipse Enthusiasts Face Challenges for Prime Viewing Opportunities"

Passengers on a Delta Air Lines flight from Dallas to Detroit hoped to witness the total solar eclipse from 33,000 feet, but many were disappointed as the angle of the sun and cloud cover made it difficult to see. Despite this, some passengers still found the experience of witnessing the eclipse's shadow racing towards them to be memorable. Delta had planned the flight for months, and other airlines also offered special eclipse-viewing flights, with some passengers booking seats specifically for the unique experience of witnessing the eclipse from the sky.
