In-flight amenities

First Class seats have 110v AC power ports.

Overview

This version has recently been introduced and features an extra row of First Class and the mid-aft galley has been eliminated.

The right-hand side of the aircraft features duo seats which may be more desirable for travelling couples. There is no video or audio and overhead storage is unlikely to accommodate large bags.

Seat pitch is reduced towards the rear of the cabin. Due to rear mounted engines, the aircraft is noisiest towards the back and seats behind the rear exits should be avoided.

Standard comfort seat. Two power outlets for the 3 seat. The row is inline with the window so you have a little bit more shoulder room.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2020/01/19 for Seat 20c

Smallest seats in the delta fleet that I've ever sat in, 16.8" . And at 5'4, the leg room was noticeably tight, and this is something that is almost never an issue for me. Delta, please get rid of these asap!

Submitted by Tom B on 2020/01/18 for Seat 14A

The ribs of the interior protrude into the shoulder space of this seat. Also, there are two international power ports on this row.

Submitted by Tom S on 2019/11/21 for Seat 3D

Even though it is an old aircraft the interior is not. Very comfortable with ample kneeroom, seat width and elbow room. However, it is difficult for window seat passenger to get out during flight. Lack of seatback entertainment; must use own smart phone, tablet, or laptop. I used iPhone but is was not very efficient. Will not work on Kindle. Luckily, I had downloaded videos to my Kindle.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/11/15 for Seat 35C

Shame on Delta for having this old bird stilli n the sky. Delta is my main carrier but every time I want to fly to Toronto to see my family I have to get on this bucket of bolts. This seat in the rear of the plane is a recipe for certain migraine. Is it possible that no regulations exist for noise pollution on aircrafts?

Submitted by Maria F on 2019/11/09 for Seat 25E

Old and comfy but very cold. Lining coming off the plane walls! No armrest at Exit seats on window side

Submitted by Taylor L on 2019/10/27 for Seat 26A

26A/B along with 26 D/E have a permanent seat divider. Awful for couples.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/09/23 for Seat 2C 2D

My wife and I occupied these seats and found them to be comfortable with ample leg room and the ability to recline. The arm rest divider is fixed but it was not an impediment in any way. Our flight(s) totaled about 4 hours and the seats were comfortable for the entire time.

Submitted by Dave R on 2019/09/11 for Seat 10C

Plenty of legroom available, but since the tray are in the armrests, the seats might feel uncomfortable after a while. You have the furst class seats ahead of you, and a clear view down thr aisle, akd into the cockpit

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/08/25 for Seat 13C

The seat has a plug in, but could not connect to gogo inflight after paying for pass. Spent entire time in chat with gogo troubleshooting by signing in and out and new tabs,etc. Finally said the technology on this aircraft is getting too old. Won't stream and slow to load pages. So credited me. So..Wi-Fi wont stream and barely works. Plane too old. Seat was comfy though

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/06/12 for Seat 20E

I am a 5'4" small person. My knees were touching the seat pocket of the seat in front of me. My 14"-wide roll-on bag would not fit under the seat.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/04/26 for Seat 14C

The spacing between rows 13 and 14 was visibly less than the spacing between rows 10-11, 11-12, and 12-13; while row 14 is designated (and priced) as Comfort+, there is little to no more legroom than standard economy. If you're paying (dollars or miles) for Comfort+, avoid row 14.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/04/08 for Seat 20E

I read all the comments before my flight, and this plane was in fine shape. Seat 20E was 17" wide at least, maybe 17.5. I'm 5' 10" and I had about 3" of knee space, no worries. "Loud plane?" Not from where I sat, it was actually one the quietest flights I've had recently! I sat in 29E on the return trip, DSM-ATL, and ditto, it was not overly loud at all.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/02/13 for Seat 33b

Surprised to be an MD-88. My first thought was, they are still flying these crates? As a small person I didn't feel cramped by the engine noise was extreme even with earbuds. Decent movie selection via the app. FA was solicitous in getting me hot tea with milk as there was only coffee and water served. Ridiculous boarding procedure. I was a "basic" fare and had to wait nearly 40 minutes to board.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/10/31 for Seat 16A

This is the smallest seat, with the least amount of legroom that I have ever flown on. The legroom was so cramped that I had to yank my carryon through the row just to get it to the seat. None of us in the row could use armrest because the seats are so narrow we needed the extra space. Horrible experience, I will avoid this aircraft at all costs going forward.

This seat at the front was very comfortable and roomy! You are close to the galley and lavatory activity and can sometimes hear the auto-pilot call out to the pilots. I was not bothered by any of this but it could prove bothersome to other travelers.

It's not just row 1, all first class seats have tray tables in the arms rather than on the seatback in front of you. As a person of some girth (5'10", 300 lbs), I was still able to use my tray comfortably, but YMMV.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/09/25 for Seat 2C

Inconsistent sizing on 2C's seat belt. Could not find any difference in jet version/generation, but flight from DAY to ATL, 2C's belt was a full 6 inches shorter than 2D, and I had to request an extender. For ATL to DAY, they were the same length. Unsure if this is due to previous belt damage, improper replacement, or what, but worth noting. When you pay for First Class to get more room and avoid the humiliation of asking for an extender, it stinks having to ask anyhow.

Flew this seat from ATL to BWI. Plenty of space, although the space under the seat in front of me was lacking. Good legroom, AC power. Plane is getting a little long in the tooth, though the interior has been recently refitted.

Rows 10, 11,and 12 are extra-cost, extra-legroom. Rows 13 and 14 are extra-cost BUT NO extra-legroom. Nothing but argument from the Delta customer service representative. The on-board flight attendant said "MD88s dont have that many extra-legroom seats...most people buy these seats for the extra liquor." My flight was at 10AM.

typical airplane seat. one caveat though - there is ac power, but i used it with my ipad mini 2 and it drained the battery. so keep that in mind if you have a similar device. that aside, its a pretty good comfort seat. id buy for sure.

26F is slightly narrower than an average seat. The seat has a full separation under the armrest, but more importantly the seatbealt is shorter which may cause an issue for customers of size.

I bought comfort + and these seats are marked comfort + on chart. But the knee room is same as economy, and very tight. This one row is clearly mismarked as comfort + and I now have to take up getting a refund with delta corporate. The rest of the comfort+ seats have much more leg room. Luckily I took scaled pictures. DO NOT CHOOSE THIS ROW!

Avoid this plane if possible. This is a VERY old plane with EXTREMELY noisy engines. Row 32 is right in front of the engine so a lot of noise/vibration. It seemed like the plane and my seat were shaking from the engine the whole flight.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/02/12 for Seat 26D

Flight was on tail number N692DL. Was in 26D and the arm rest for these seats was solid and could not be raised like the belonged to the exit row. Also the site says the seat pitch reduces toward the back of the plane however I had no issue with legroom (had some to spare even) in row 26 and 27 being 6' 3". On other MD88 flights i've been rows 16-18 and been more cramped. I plan on sitting toward the back more on future flights.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/02/08 for Seat 24A

Although 24A does not have full recline, the back of you seat is less likely to be kicked since 25A is also exit and has extra leg room. I find that in 25A my seat gets kicked or hit quite often by the person behind me.

Economy class on these MD-88 is a joke. I am a big guy (6'4" 300) but i can normally do just fine in refular economy. My fligjt ATL-MIA was the worst flight of my life. Pitch is MAYBE 30", and the width is even worse. This plane is super tight! Avoid if possible

Worst flight ever. I am 6 feet tall, 170 lbs. I fly 20-30 flights/year. I did NOT fit in this seat. The distance from the back of the seat to the tray table did not accommodate the length of my legs and I was forced to sit at an angle for 3 hours. Super uncomfortable. Again, worst plane ride ever.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/02/22 for Seat 11e

This is a Delta Comfort window seat& it was the most uncomfortable and small seat I have ever sat in. The arm rest does NOT go up, and there is a tray in the arm rest (or something...didn't pull it out) which makes the seat more narrow. The extra so-called leg room is barely noticeable. I would never book this class again. They need to have the arm rest go up for more room!!! My husband and I were totally squashed in.

I paid $9 to upgrade to this seat which was shown on Delta's website as being a Delta Comfort Seat. When I got to my seat I realized this was not a Delta Comfort Seat. I hailed a stewardess and was moved to seat 14D. The regular seats on these planes are very cramped. My Delta flights that day on the MD-88 and the 717-200 had annoying engine fumes the whole way.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/02/21 for Seat 27D

Surprisingly pleasant aircraft and seat. Even though it is an old plane, noise was not too bad. A smooth flight and seat 27D offers ample legroom. (And I am 6' 3"). Window is aligned, so one can see enough (wing, and behind it).

Flew on this old bird from MSP-ABQ. The aircraft is old inside. Lets make that clear. The seats are old as well as the bins and other fittings. Bins were very small and the leg room was tight.

Not bad, window lovers rejoice for you can lay claim to two windows! One at shoulder provides a little extra room, one beside 19E seatback provides best view without too much strain on neck.

Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/08/13 for Seat 26A

Decent seat, better than average recline. Only problem is that there is a bulkhead in the ceiling that prevents the doors to the overhead bins for rows 25 and 26 from opening completely on either side of the plane; this makes it impossible to load larger carryons. Had to stick mine over 28 which made for a tricky exit upon deplaning.

This seat was the best Premium Economy seat I've ever sat in. I was able to fully extend my legs and still have a couple inches to spare. The only complaints I have are that the tray table was a little difficult to open, and the amount of legroom made it harder to reach your personal items. Otherwise, an A+ seat!

This seat is the sweet spot; why it has mixed reviews I have no idea. Same width as other seats, and the arm rests are not fixed like other ER seats. I would take this seat over 33A, as 33A is hugging the curve of the wall and the Emergency Exit door cramps in on your space - as well as the flight attendant when they are seated directly in front of you on a jump seat, facing you.

Comfort+ is good on your backside and could be tolerated for many hours, width isnt great but sufficient, economy seats on delta are like wood, no padding. It would be revolutionarty of Delta to adopt the comfort+ seat to standard economy. The alcohol, its included in comfort+, they only had one mixed drink available from the menu but was decent. Is the upgrade worth it at $30 over economy? yes.

More leg room than Delta's 757-200, but the arm rests were lacking - thin, hard, immovable, and really only one in the center of D and E. Row is on the wing, so the view is obscured (if you care), but it's a very quiet ride other than the occasional adjustment of flaps. This plane didn't have charging stations/plugs or any TVs/screens mounted, but the interior was in good shape and didn't appear aging - just not upgraded.

Under no circumstances are you to sit in these seats. They're cramped, loud., smell, and have zero recline. The legroom amount I'm sure is smaller than the regular seats and at my 1.8m (5' 11") stature I was rubbing my knees against the metal arms. The engine roar is deafening, especially when reverse thrust is engaged on landing. Though there'd be nothing to see, the lack of a window can add to airsickness and nausea. You are, frankly, sitting where a closet or storage might be and that makes me very sad to think about. If given the option to fly in these seats or walk to your destination, pick the latter.

Maybe I was spoiled because on my outbound flight I flew in a Boeing 717-200 and the Comfort Section was CLEARLY roomier and more outfitted than the Coach section. But I didn't find this seat to be any better than the Coach seats three rows back, AND there was no AC outlet which was a bit frustrating. Tight fit and my bag, which fits EVERYWHERE - didn't fit in the overhead compartment and couldn't fit in its entirety under the seat in front of me. I had to straddle my bag the whole flight.

I am 6' and broad shouldered. I flew in 16E and 17A recently. Both seats have the same issues. First is the pitch. My knees were wedged against the seat in front. I've lived with this before on other airlines, but something peculiar about the Delta seats. Due to the narrow width of the seats, one knee was wedged against the seat frame and/or the metal spring for the magazine pouch. This was extremely unpleasant. Regarding width, I was in a window seat both ways and I could not sit up vertically due to the outside wall of the hull and the narrow seats. I had to twist slightly to avoid pressing too much in to the person next to me. I will avoid this air frame all together in the future.

I need to defend seat 11D! I got seated in 11D because seating was not assigned until we got to the gate. I had read the awful reviews here, but the only other option was 33C, and I didn't want to smell the lavatories. As it turned out, it was roomier in terms of both leg room and width than the standard economy seats. Also, the people who get to select these seats are in a special class that is below first class, but above standard economy. They get free alcoholic beverages with these seats, which is a new rule that began March 1st, 2015. I don't use alcohol, but I could have gotten a free drink as well, just for being in the seat! By the way I am overweight, and I was able to fasten my seatbelt in 11D without an extender. Back in 22C, I had to use an extender, because the regular seatbelt only went 75% around "me belly." Back in 22C, elbows were always an issue. In 11D, my seat mates must not have had elbows, because I never got poked once.

Interior seemed newly refreshed with crisp LED-based lights. Legroom was very tight, pitch must be less than the 33-31 inches stated, I would guess 29-30, but the seats are not the ergo-slimline that make better use of space. At 6'1, my knees pressed on the back of the seat in front and the tray table rested on my legs. When the passenger in front tried to recline, he could not, it was blocked painfully by my knees; the seat was empty next to me, so I could sit askew into the other seat and passenger could recline.. But if the seat had not been empty, it could have become contentious - there would have been no where for me to move my legs.

One other comment for the first class seats is to be sure and try to book in row 2 or 3. The overhead space is very limited for rows 1 due to emergency equipment. Also no video on this aircraft type, but you can use onboard internet for viewing movies and TV shows and you don't have to pay for the GOGO inflight wifi, just use the Delta entertainment app.

This is a dreadful seat with smaller seat width and immovable armrest. Upon measuring the leg space, even the flight attendant agreed that the leg room was the same as regular economy seats. Paying extra for this seat and the one next to it is a ripoff by Delta. The attendant suggested that I contact the airline.

Seat 10A on the MD88 is not a comfortable seat. I was in this seat for the 1st of a 2 leg trip on the same aircraft. The first row of economy comfort seats sit between the protruding ribs of the aircraft paneling. What I experienced was the rib protruding into my shoulder. Since the armrests were immovable, the seat width was unacceptable since I was more or less unable to sit straight up. For the 2nd leg of my flight, I had a standard economy seat in row 17 which was way more comfortable, also a window seat!

The armrest between 11D and 11E cannot be raised. This makes the seat width narrower.

They must have fixed this seat at some point because it's hard as a rock. Good thing it's only a short flight but it pinched my nerves and cut off feeling to my left leg. Worst delta seat I've ever flown in.

This was an awful first class seat. The plane's interior was newly updated. No less than 5 times did the flight attendants and other passengers squeeze in the small space in front of me to let someone pass by. My arm was often bumped as anyone passed by.The table tray was in the arm and did not slide forward enough. (I thought I must be big until I looked at the tiny person in 1D who had the same problem.) The pocket that hangs on the bulkhead in front of you is so small and tight that it's worthless. I made the mistake of putting my phone in there while I ate (no space elsewhere) and struggled foolishly to get it out. Not worth paying for this seat.

Standard economy seat. Noise of the engine is still pretty loud up hear. You want to pick a seat in the front section of the economy cabine. These seats cost extra as they're sold as prefeered seating.

Okay seat, on an old plane. I thought I was going to hate it, but it was a more fun ride instead of a larger plane. I wish they had entertainment!

Worst seat I've ever sit in on a Delta Flight. It was more like Economy Discomfort. The seat has got to be thinner than usual already and then has a tray in the armrest and seatback. 10D/E & 11D/E are terrible if you care about seat width at all.

Seat 36D is one of the worst seats in the plane.The smell of the lavatories is disgusting but what makes it worse is having to wait for everything as well as the flight attendants making all announcements from the back not to mention that the window is completely blocked by the engine

I thought there might be a mistake when Seatguru reported the tray tables in the armrests as there is a tray on the seat back in front of this seat (and 11E) but indeed there is a tray in the armrest making the seat slightly narrower. A better choice might be 12 D or E as they have no tray in the armrest. Still offers more legroom than standard economy.

This is a HORRIBLE seat. This should not be called a standard seat. The view out of the window is completely obstructed by the jet engine, which appears to be about 5 inches outside of the window, meaning not only will takeoff and landing make you partly deaf, your bones will be seriously rattling during both. And if you are claustrophobic, you will not enjoy the view!

Avoid this seat. Delta installed a flight attendant's jumpseat facing what would have been seat 32A. The fflight attendant's telephone equipment blocks the storage under the seat. Finally, this seat is an inch narrower than other coach seats

I've flown many bulkhead 1st class seats & this is one of the tightest one I've been, I would not recommend at all. Could barely put my feet up.
