Is there a ranking system I'm unaware of? I thought Delta was one of the better ones compared to say frontier or spirit.

Frontier and Sprint are a different tier than Delta, which is in the same tier as American Airlines. With Frontier and Sprint, you should expect everything to cost you something snd your trip to be bare bones.

Delta shouldn't be like that at all. But within its tier, it's the worst.

So what are tiers and who is in which one?

From my experience:

  1. Major - Delta, United, American Airlines
  2. Value - Southwest, JetBlue
  3. Budget - Spirit, Frontier, Allegiant

I'm not sure where Alaska and Hawaiian airlines fit in since it's been a while since I've flown with them.

I'd add Alaska Airlines to the major category.
