Delta Air Lines

I currently have an upgrade offer from Delta to move from Comfort+ to Premium Select on an ATL–MAD flight departing in 12 days. The offer is priced at 39,900 miles per person (or $839 cash equivalent). The upgrade would include a more spacious seat, additional legroom, increased...

The Sky Club at Haneda really answers the question of whether the Reserve Card is worth it. For me, it already makes sense to have it, but this lounge takes things to another level and puts many other Sky Clubs to shame. It isn’t the largest lounge, but the food quality is...

I was in the JFK Sky Club last week and saw someone treating the lounge like their own personal office and living room combined. For almost an hour, everyone nearby basically became part of his day. We got to hear details from a business meeting, updates about his mom painting a...

I was pleasantly surprised to receive an unexpected upgrade from Premium Select to Delta One, likely because Premium Select was oversold, though I am not certain. I was very impressed with the Delta One Lounge at LAX, especially the steak frites. The onboard Delta One experience...

It was fine, I wouldn’t get it again; but I do feel a sense of accomplishment after chasing this high for a year.

I recently flew on a brand-new aircraft from Detroit (DTW) to Las Vegas (LAS), and the cabin was surprisingly empty, which made the experience even more comfortable. The first class seats felt very spacious and well-designed, with multiple storage compartments and built-in...

I’m excited to see Delta operating flights in Hong Kong again after leaving the market in 2018. They are now competing directly with United Airlines and Cathay Pacific with a new daily nonstop service between Hong Kong and Los Angeles. We are flying on DL88 today, which feels...

I am trying to book a flight using Aeromexico points, but I am running into an issue. When I search for flights using points on the Aeromexico website, the Delta-operated flight does not appear. However, if I disable the “use points” option, the same Delta flight shows up...

I am flying Delta One from MSP to PMS and I am trying to decide which meal to pre-select. I am having trouble making a simple decision and wanted some input. I am currently leaning toward one option but I am still unsure.

Delta appears to be offering itineraries on its new Hong Kong (HKG) route that include interline connections with Cathay Pacific. This is interesting because Delta typically relies on Korean Air for connections within Asia. It’s also notable that United has similar interline...

I had a business trip itinerary where I was originally planning to fly back home to the US. Instead of going straight home, I checked what it would cost to reroute and fly from Osaka to Manila first, since I have a business meeting there, and then continue home to Cleveland...

I know this is a long shot, but I am hoping someone on this flight might see this. I lost two plush keychains while boarding and I think they may have fallen off my backpack. They are my comfort items and I am really upset about losing them. They are Moon Knight plush keychains...

I was traveling with two other people and had originally paid 80 dollars to upgrade to an exit row seat, which seemed like a good option for a 13 hour international flight. However, just before boarding I noticed in the Delta app that I had been reassigned to a standard economy...

I’m flying Delta One on an Airbus A350-900 from Johannesburg to Atlanta and trying to decide which seats are best. The available options are in rows 1, 9, 10, and 11. I’m looking for advice on which row would offer the most comfortable experience in terms of privacy, noise...

Short 2-hour flight from SLC to SJC, but I am just a regular SkyMiles member. I have honestly never seen an upgrade to First Class priced this low before, so I decided to treat myself. Really excited for my first time up front and curious to see what the experience is like...

I’ve been Platinum/Diamond for about 10 years and recently ran into something I haven’t experienced before. I typically book First Class specifically to keep Same-Day Change (SDC) flexibility, especially when I want access to the last available seats. On my most recent trip, I...

I’m flying internationally next week with my husband and our 1.5-year-old for a wedding. Since our first flight is around 10 hours, I decided to bring a car seat because I’m hoping my daughter will sleep more comfortably, similar to how she does during car rides. I intentionally...

I thought this was cute. There’s supposedly a game viewing area close to my gate.

Why does the seat map show a bunch of seats that according to the seat key are “unavailable” and then they show seats that are “occupied.” What’s the difference between the seats?

I have an upcoming flight and have been hoping to upgrade to Delta One. Over the past month, I have been checking the upgrade prices several times a day and have noticed a pattern that I find hard to explain. For the most part, both Premium Select and Delta One upgrade prices...
