Delta announces special mid-day flight on April 8 to follow solar eclipse's path

A MARTÍNEZ, HOST:

Good morning, I'm A Martínez. There are folks who will fly across the country to see this spring's solar eclipse. But how about flying along the totality? Delta has announced a special midday flight on April 8 from Austin to Detroit following the eclipse path. They're even using a plane with bigger windows to make it easier to see. A couple of things - please keep your seat belt securely fastened until the captain turns off the fasten seatbelt sign. And don't forget to wear those special protective eclipse-viewing glasses. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
