I was on flight 1287 from Los Angeles to Houston on July 31. My ticket was for basic economy, and I was assigned a seat at check-in. I have flown United and American airlines, and their economy seats are pretty difficult to stand for more than an hour or two. They are hard, don’t have any kind of back support or anything like that. I was absolutely floored when I got in my seat on Delta, and there were literally cushions under my behind and on my back. Super comfortable! The flight went as smooth as glass, and the flight attendants were efficient and attentive. And what I was most impressed with was that they had little video, or TV screens, on the back of each seat, even in basic economy, and all of the movies were free. One of the flight attendants handed out complementary headphones to make the flight even more enjoyable. I had my own, but it was nice to see they provided them to their guests. How refreshing! It made the time, not to sound cliché, but “fly by“. I don’t care what anybody else says or what negative reviews are posted, I will continue to fly only Delta.
