Avis sur la compagnie aérienne Delta Air Lines

Flew RDU-ATL on 8/30/09, and had to rebook from a flight on the MD-88, due to bad weather. Flight was jammed packed, but luckily I managed to still get an aisle. Flight attendants took good care of us, and I made it down to ATL with over 1.5 hours to spare until my connecting flight.

Flew RDU-MSP on 12/29/09. Selected this exit row aisle seat at check-in. Legroom was plenty, and I was able to put my laptop case under 8D, and still had plenty of room to fully stretch my legs.

For a non-preferred/exit row seat, still pretty decent, with about 33" of legroom. DL has done a good thing by putting seatback televisions at every seat.

These aircraft are perfectly suited for a high density route, especially one like HNL. The first class cabin is small compared to the aircraft and with two flight attendants and excelled AVOD, the five and a half hours flew by

This is the smallest plane I have ever flown in. On the first leg of my trip I made the mistake of choosing row 7 which did not recline. My larger than average frame made my trip very uncomfortable. On the return I was in row 9 which did recline and improved my comfort somewhat. Overhead storage was minimal so bags were collected at the door and returned when we exited.

This airplane is very nice, and with the new delta interiors it make for a very pleasant 45 minute flight. Also, the fact the tray tables are in the armrests in first class seems to create quite a bit more room.

I flew this aircraft from LAX to ATL. The fully lie-flat seats in business class are really neat, however, the layout makes it very difficult to see out the window. You face away from the window, and you only get one window to look out of. Essentially you have turn your head about 100 degrees to look out the window. I like the space for laptops and for food. It has plenty of power outlets - one for your computer, and a USB charging port, which is nice. You have no place unfortunately to store your luggage under your seat...everything MUST go in the overhead bins. I prefer Delta's lie-flat seats in business class of its 767-400LR aircraft better.

While these seats are very nice and comfortable for the short 1 hour flight from Orlando to Atlanta (and certainly better than coach), they would not be good for transcons because the leg room is less than that of the rest of the fleet.

This airpane is fabulous for a regional jet. The overhead bins can actually hold roll aboards! These seats, in my opinion, are nicer than most of mainline Delta. The recline is significantly more than anything I have ever seen in a domestic product, and the crew was nice and the airplane clean. These seats look really good also, and have a lot more padding than those of the CRJ-900. This is my new favorite domestic airplane!

While these airplanes are aging, Delta has done a very nice job keeping the interiors new looking as well as comfortable. First class on this airplane is all leather (as with all of Delta), and the leg room is good. Even though this is a bulkhead, the leg room isn't much more than the normal seats, but there is no one reclining into you. The recline is good and you have a very good view out the window also. However, because you are right next to the lavatory, sleeping is not easy with the associated light and odor. However, a very comfortable airplane non the less.
