"could benefit from a bit more cushioning"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Nice looking seat with adequate storage and large video screen. Unfortunately seat felt hard / uncomfortable after a few hours. Inflight bedding was soft and plush, but when the seat transformed into bed it still was not enough to help soften bed. Simply could not get comfortable. I really wanted to like this seat as its aesthetics were really nice. Definitely an improvement over the older Delta One, but the seats could benefit from a bit more cushioning.

"full flat seat is tilted too much"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Delta One was my first choice before covid but this time the seat layout, size, angle gave me the worst experience. The leg space for window suit was way too small. At full flat position, I couldn’t turn my body because my feet are stuck in the leg space. I had to make seat upright first to turn my body. The full flat seat is tilted too much, so my body was tense whole flight. I had a backache when I arrived in Seoul, then after taking the inbound flight( this time at center suite) I had a little more legroom but seat was still too steep, i started having a muscle tenderness (couldn’t walk or wake up) for 1 full day after the flight. Food was worse than before but still acceptable for Coming back flight. The food prepared in Seattle was so bad. As an appetizer, I had a half cut egg roll, fried shrimp, both were tasteless. Food prepared in Korea was a tasty chicken salad. Never fly Delta One any longer.

"seat is so uncomfortable"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | ATL-LHR Boeing 767-400 Delta Premium Select, looked pretty fancy online. Seats looked new, width good, leg room good, definitely new Entertainment system - USB ports, free WIFI for messaging, good food... all a waste when the seat I am sat in for 8 hours are so uncomfortable. My back is in agony. There are no ergonomics in the seat design. No support whatsoever for the back. And not able to sit straight to stretch my back out either. The head rest seemed to push my head forward, forcing me into a weird stoop with shoulder and back having to awkwardly compensate. The seat recline just made matters worse. The footrest, whilst well intentioned, was also a disaster of design. Because it was the base of the seat opening out it meant the front of the seat was solid, so no opportunity to put heels under, to take a bit of body weight. And the foot rest was very shallow, so only heels sit on it and it doesn't go forward far enough so your feet are never in a natural position. Far better when the foot rest is attached to the seat in front. I usually enjoy a flight and it was the final part of my holiday, unfortunately I could not wait for this flight to end. Very disappointing. I pity the person in Comfort Plus who was immediately adjacent to the toilet. Appalling design.

"legroom was not so great"

(Canada)

Trip Verified | Seat was quite comfortable, but legroom was not so great (I am 6ft tall). IFE was very good and outlets were available. Overall, it isn't bad but I was definitely happy to strech my legs after 10 hours aboard.

"a narrower seat"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | Delta One business class on the Boeing 767 provides a lot of privacy but the consequence is a narrower seat which is mostly felt in sleeping conditions as it gets tight at the shoulder level. Cabin layout is also starting to show its age and it is poorly maintained.

"Seat had tons of leg room"

(United States)

Not Verified | Seat had tons of leg room, my husband is 6.5’ and GS at least an additional 8” of space between knees and seat. Arm rests were fixed with tray tables inside them. Storage space under seat was small but allowed for extra leg room so worth it.

"These seats are tight"

(United States)

Trip Verified | If Delta Economy comfort is supposed to have more room than regular coach, I can’t imagine how tight regular economy must be. These seats are tight. I had seat 12A and I’m pretty sure it had less room than the other side. The rows are offset and it seems like they made up some room on 12A-C. I would avoid these seats if you can. Row 10 has the most legroom on A-C as it has first class and no bulkhead in front of it.

"a comfortable way to fly"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Atlanta to Paris in Delta Premium Select on Boeing 777. Seat was reasonably comfortable in the full upright position although not much of an improvement over regular economy. In the reclined position, the fold-out footrest was just a little bit short for my height/leg length (I'm 5'11), but the extra recline and legroom was much appreciated. Delta provided noise cancelling headphones but the noise cancelling effect was minimal at best. If you use your own earbuds/headphones, bring a two prong adapter. The video screen is larger than economy and Delta's usually excellent selection of movie and TV options is available. Meals were served on real China and flatware by an attentive dedicated flight attendant. I had a delicious steak dinner that could have passed for a business class meal, although it was served all at once rather than in courses. The TUMI amenity kit comes with a nice zipper case but skimpy in its contents. In all, Premium Select is a comfortable way to fly and a significant improvement from Economy but not worth the steep price, unless you get upgraded.

"big noise from engines"

(Japan)

Trip Verified | I seated at 51J and 50A seats for my outbound and inbound flights. These seats are windows side which provide a good view in economy cabin. However, it take a little bit difficulty when we want go out during these long haul flights. The seat legroom and width in economy cabin is quite comfortable. It was a long time not flight with Boeing 777. I always remembered the big noise from their engines so that you should prepare and use earphone with noise cancellation if you flight with Boeing 777.

"WiFi during flight"

(Japan)

Trip Verified | MD-90, Seat 21E next to window provides a nice view with almost two windows. The seat width is smaller but it is still good enough for me. There are AC power supply in your seat and WiFi during flight.
