Austin DeSisto | Nurphoto | Getty Images Delta Air Lines is dividing up the front of the plane into even smaller groups, offering a new “basic” fare for business and first classes that comes without perks like free seat selection and airport lounge access. The carrier is following United Airlines, which made a similar change earlier this year to its Polaris long-haul business class and other higher-tier cabins. Carriers are seeking to maximize what they can get out of high-spending customers, whose resilient travel demand has helped bolster the industry.
