I have flown to Europe 41 times in the last 40 years. Every trip but maybe three with Delta. Three trips this Summer, all with Delta. They are the best. I just wanted to pass something along to you, back in the 1980's all coach seats were like the present-day comfort plus.

[@fejic]

Delta has really stepped up their game

[@ellona3645]

Almost had a heart attack my first time flying with Delta I thought my seat was taken. Apparently they just upgraded me to Delta Comfort 😂

[@WSAirplanes]

The same happened to me on a Avianca's and American flight, both I was already seated.

[@lordcolby5010]

I really like that timeline in the menu. Great idea Delta.

[@SalomonAviationTravel]

Nice trip report! I was on a flight from SLC-CDG a year ago and from what I remember the service on Delta was exceptional even in economy! Thanks for the video!

[@redstone51]

STARBUCKS COFFEE??? ON DELTA??? AMAZING!!!

[@gop4usa12]

Comfort+ is definitely well worth the extra cost. I flew it last year from PDX to MSP and it was a pleasant experience. I'm also looking forward to my trip this year to Munich where I'll also be making a connection in Amsterdam. I love the 767 with it's 2-3-2 configuration and feel fortunate that Delta is holding onto it long enough for my trip this year. I understand the 767s will all be gone in a few years.

[@zakelwe]

I wish I had that little old lady always next to me on that sort of flight! Impressed with the meal and also the information given out about when you can consume when. Top work delta. BA etc take note

[@danielclooney6248]

Great video and very impressed with the food you've shown on DL. The bus gates are frustrating.

[@AstroGoalHorns]

7:34 Totally agree! When I got off my first long-haul from Seattle to Keflavík, we had a bus gate. It sucked.

[@avinashgargi3493]

My best flight experience was with Delta.

[@gabrielduerr4409]

Wow, love your videos! You are the best trip reporter. Although you are not so frequent like simply aviation, you don’t make our videos cringe with the smiley faces and stuff.

[@powerkingspowerstroke1405]

Other people will probably say different but I wouldn’t fly anybody other than Delta.

You’re right, others will say different

[@pierre.l97133]

I always use delta. And just say lol. Plenty of other company are way better.

[@natarshaharris2933]

Delta is the only airline I will fly also.

[@clydeinverness1197]

@@somchai9033 Airfrance, KLM, Luftansa, Iberia or Alitalia before Delta. I have Flown Delta JKF- CDG and they were ok but they dont come close to the European Carriers.

[@kayBTR]

M Vaduz How are they different?

[@airfreak75]

Free tarmac tour. I would never complain about that. What aircraft park at what gates is determined by operations. At AUH, DOH, DXB and the old IST it is perfectly normal for 12+ hour flights to park at remote stations.

[@MarkJFromm]

Deltas Features and amenities are top notch. No wonder they are the worlds best global airline

[@dubaikasi]

Wie immer ! Danke bestens !

[@TPAspotter]

Very nice trip repoert/review.

[@yingdeng488]

Lol true bus Gates should be illegal after long hauls. Amandeuce you are the best

[@finndenengelsman5666]

At schiphol it is very rare to get a busgate after a long haul. Normaly the bus gate are for the klm embraers.

[@theapproachpath2025]

@@finndenengelsman5666 Actually, I know I'm late, but they always use these particular 3 gates specifically for Long Haul flights and it doesn't really suck for an av-geek like me, but they use these gates for the SLC-AMS route (Unless it's on the seasonal KLM service) and for some other routes, 747 used to be common at these 3 gates but since retirement I don't know what they park there, The embraer gates are too small for any widebody and even the A321 couldn't fit in it.

[@prowelsh56]

I am 6'2" can I survive comfortably in DElta economy....for a 12 hour flight? Thank you for any advice.

[@bbtravelvideos]

Hi Amandeuce! Another great and well made report, really enjoyed it! I actually hate those early afternoon/evening TATL flights back to Europe. I find it so hard to fall asleep (as it just turns night at your original destination once you arrive). Delta have a great economy product. Hadn’t seen the menu’s before, another nice touch! The food looks delicious, how did that pale ale taste? Never knew we used bus gates for arriving widebodies here at AMS.. Thanks for another great report! Brendan

[@amandeuce]

I really like that pale ale, I usually get it on Delta flights now :)

[@andrewrys8663]

Delta I see has Been very Good for Very long Flights. Sorry about the Bus to the Main Airport. When I was In Amsterdams Airport for a Changeover from Oslo then Amsterdam to Calgary I didn't have to Take a Bus. Happy you enjoyed the Service on Comfort Plus. KLM was very good too I flew. I Also got Tea Service after my Meal with a Lemon Tart in Economy class. KLM is part of Sky Team Too.

[@brandonmmmmmmmm3293]

this is fire

Good to know 14A has the windows, flying that seat in June.

watch out there is different 767 configs

Amandeuce yeah but I'm on this configuration...for now

Do they give complimentary headphones?

[@erickhaas8665]

Thanks for the video! Bringing my wife to Chile in 11 days and it's good to see what Comfort+ is all about!

[@amandeuce]

how was the flight?

[@Kimbaface]

You mention using an upgrade with Platinum. I'm newly Platinum and totally confused on how to use it. It seems like you book regular economy and then request the upgrade closer to the flight? How risky is that? Also, I just looked at flights I need to take and it said "no upgrade certificate allowed" on many of the options. Sigh.

[@bradmason8334]

Row 14 was OK for me, but it’s across from the lavatory (diagonal)... a lot of foot traffic... I didn’t see you mention that, what’s your take on the distance?

[@shudeskaleonard9042]

Do they offer seatbelt extenders?

[@omstennis9198]

can I use the Lounge at the Airport with Delta Comfort Plus?

[@Ahuntsicspotter]

Delta is the exception off the airline industry here in North America.

[@jenjen4658]

I flew to london on delta in economy it was a night flight we bounced and swayed all the way across the atlantic ocean didn't sleep 1 second lol but it was a great vacation

[@genocideking1622]

When u fly delta comfort plus do the meals come free with it or do u have to pay? Also do u get all those extras for free as well? I was wondering because I’m flying to from Phoenix to jfk to San Juan in September.

[@amandeuce]

meals on long haul international flights are always free on delta. and yes all extras are included!

[@derekjackson1039]

Delta and jet blue for sure

We had to do a bus gate when we left Paris CDG!!! But I was flying Delta and it was a great flight!!!!

[@toyioncrenshaw1579]

Odd question but, How tall are you? My boyfriend and I are planning our first trip out of the country and are thinking of flying Comfort+ but, He's 6'3 and I don't want him to be all scrunched up in the seats with little to no leg room.

[@SeaJayBelfast]

I'm 6'8 and fit in Delta comfort+ without touching the seat in front.

[@patricktimothy8354]

Great job. But,even if you fly a lot,the view in and out of SLC is one of the prettiest anywhere.

[@TripReportaviation]

the IFE was surprisingly new despite the age of the aircraft. They must have upgrađe the IFE

[@macorey54]

I love flying Delta! I've flown several times Chicago to Amsterdam. Great service & great flights.

[@appliancehelp]

Is there enough room for my dog Carrie? I have a small four pound Yorkie i am bringing with. Could you elaborate some on the room under the seat? Thanks

[@amandeuce]

ugh no idea how big dogs are but if its a tiny puppie i think it fits under the seat

[@ThatDamnPandaKai]

Amenities wise, Delta isn't anything special, but I do think their staff are much better than a lot of other Airlines.

[@holbriland6584]

Do you get the lounge access with purchase of comfort plus?

[@amandeuce]

nope

[@HB45175]

Never been on a 767 so had no idea the cabin door slides from above! Pretty unique feature.

[@protocolofficer2629]

[@rak7673er]

Exactly! The 767 is a unique plane!

[@reohtz4878]

As a retired Purser for Delta Airlines, I appreciate your kind comments in your very comprehensive review. Please note that gate assignment at Schipol are done by the tower and all airlines flying there,including KLM, are arbitrarily assigned fates, including bus gates.

You got access to the sky lounge with comfort plus?

I been flow delta once and when I got first class, you not access to sky lounge, only by using certain card or have to pay it. Only Delta One got access and first class in select domestic flight and international flight.

[@masad.739]

I just flew comfort plus (Seattle to Osaka). It did not come with lounge access. In fact, I barely noticed any difference between comfort plus and regular economy (Osaka to Seattle).

At least your not flying the 737 MAX

Are you sure Economy Comfort Plus comes with lounge access?

[@koen6468]

No it doesn’t, I’m pretty sure you need to have delta one tickets to enter, But you can use your sky miles card to get lounge access. Or, you need to be a medallion member

[@amandeuce]

I'm platinum with delta, eco plus does not come with lounge access

[@meandtina]

Delta Comfort+ has free access to sky lounge?

[@brizzle3903]

Not anymore

[@noahkgoldwasser8630]

Team Samsung!!!!! 6:41

[@Thedearster]

Quick question. I’m gonna buy a Delta Comfort Plus ticket. But I read if you become a Delta Platinum member, you get an automatic upgrade to Comfort Plus. So, if I become a Platinum member and buy an Economy ticket, will I get upgrade to Delta Plus? So I would save hundreds by going Platinum before I buy the ticket. Can you do that?

[@amandeuce]

Yes, if you're platinum you get the free upgrade(if available)

[@Thedearster]

Amandeuce “If available.” Will I know if it is available once I buy the ticket? Or will I have to wait until I go to the Airport?

[@Thedearster]

Amandeuce How do I become a Platinum member? Can I just pay a membership fee?

[@amandeuce]

as soon as you book you get a complimentary upgrade. you can check the seatmap on delta.com when you book if theres any available. and no, you have to fly a lot to become platinum

[@simplytine2939]

Lol. The pilot is missing i laughed that part

[@flowerpower8125]

The only thing I wanted to see was how much the comfort plus seat reclines , and you didn’t show it

[@holyfox94]

I booked the same seats like the guys in front of you. Is there a TV& tray“❓❓

[@amandeuce]

yes there is!

[@tomekt9675]

So I'm not the only one who was moved to Comfort + unintentionally?

[@seanmcclelland8893]

the bus taxi isn't that bad cause you get a good view of the plane of you get off, I mean id be enjoying the view but that's just me.

Wow. 27 year old aircraft. I know Delta has been buying A350 and what not but is it not a good one to change these old birds too? Are 757 or 767 still air worthy. I would be scared crossing Atlantic in an 28 year old plane. I am nervous air traveller. 😃

[@kennethchongweithart7905]

Nice Sleep Kit! What was inside?

[@amandeuce]

eyeshades and earplugs for sure, maybe even socks

[@tiago161]

There are no socks. You get a toothbrush, very small tube of toothpaste, sleep mask and some very flimsy earplugs that don’t keep any noise out. You only get socks in Premium Select and of course Delta One.

[@ivanbrocko]

I just wonder how tall are you. Sitting in Delta Comfort, what....35 instead of 31 in economy....leg room. You look comfortable.

[@amandeuce]

I'm 1.78 or 5'10

[@kev7161]

Delta Comfort + is really so much better than the new premium economy in my opinion.

[@raetugcheleinhorn9798]

What is the extra cost for comfort plus

[@masad.739]

I just flew Delta economy from Seattle to Paris. I barely see any difference between economy and economy comfort plus in terms of seats. Meals look exactly the same. On my way back, I flew Lufthansa Premium Economy, it was too much nicer than economy (of any airlines) with much larger seats with so much more legroom and better food.

[@amandeuce]

the difference is the additional legroom you get in eco plus. it is not premium economy.

When I was coming back from NYC, as we were climbing my ear wouldn't pop, and it hurt so bad. My mom told the flight attendant and he moved us to Economy+, right behind first class. A whole like 2 feet of legroom. Eventually my ear popped. That was probably the worst and best flight I've had hahaha

sorry to hear about your ear popping experience

[@BlackWindow144]

well never heard about that that we do that in Amsterdam with the bus parking spots... I thought they where only to park the plane x)

[@popdisplay]

Same size as their economy seat. Just a couple of additional inches of leg room. Compared to Virgin Atlantic's Premium Economy, Delta's product sucks.

Hey, I'm flying to Iceland in a couple months, but I have two choices: United Air and Icelandair.

[@KingTuchus]

See- you enjoy this boarding infrastructure despite the fact you have video evidence of why this boarding method is actually terrible. Notice how you had to backup so that some more people chucking their bags into overhead stopped you and therefore pushed you out? It quells anxiety while quietly making the boarding process last longer.
