Delta Comfort: Is Premium Economy worth the money?

In this trip report, we'll take a look at Delta Comfort so you can determine whether premium economy is worth the money. We'll highlight the benefits of Delta Comfort and also discuss how to get a seat in Delta Air Lines' premium economy cabin.

The flight I took was between Atlanta and Bermuda so that means, in addition to seeing the seat and amenities of the Delta Comfort Premium Economy cabin, there are stunning views of Bermuda's beautiful ocean and beaches (be sure to watch to the very end!).

A Delta Comfort Review isn't complete without talking about all of the benefits that go along with the more expensive ticket, so we'll be sure to highlight them in the video.

Delta Comfort is also known as Delta Comfort+ and Delta Economy Comfort. They're all names for Delta Air Lines' entrant in the Premium Economy category.

So, please let me know in the comments section: After watching this Delta Comfort Review, do you think Premium Economy is worth the money?

I've flown Delta Comfort+ on a long haul flight and paid about $150 extra for the seat 1 way and it was worth it. Hoping to use it again in October! Great video and Bermuda looks stunning!

I flew on Delta comfort+ on my flight from Orlando to LaGuardia on an A321 and I thought it was fantastic, it's the kind of flight you wish lasted longer. The flight attendants were super nice and friendly, I also enjoyed the free snacks you get on the flight

It’s cool seeing these old interiors. It gives me nostalgia. But I’m also glad we moved on to something better

We used it last summer to Walt Disney World. LAX-ATL-MCO and MCO-LAX on return. Was definitely worth it for that 4-5 hours leg! Having 2-3 cocktails and tasty snacks was great.
I must point out that we booked main cabin and after paying, a window popped up and an offer for upgrade to COMFORT+ came up and I clicked it. I was then allowed to change my seats to the new cabin and charged an extra $120 total for all 3 legs of the trip. It would have cost us $125 per person extra doing it from the start!

I am 6-3 and almost always fly Delta, and when I do I always get the comfort option. It isn't that much more than economy and I like boarding before everyone else, and the extra leg room. If you are price conscious then maybe you won't want to spend the extra bucks, but I feel the benefit outweighs the cost.

I don't usually pay for Comfort+, but with Medallion status it's a nice perk when I get upgraded. I agree with Jeb that an 'upgrade' to a middle seat in C+ isn't really an upgrade if you had a window or aisle seat to begin with. Glad you liked the chicken wrap. I always buy mine in the airport now, after the one I bought onboard had exactly ONE chunk of chicken in it. Otherwise, I agree with C. Ryan that Delta is #1.

I checked out when flying from Seattle back to Raleigh/Durham. It was well worth the extra cost. I was not as tired as I was when I flew out the 1st time. Great product for longer flights.

Took a flight from SCL - ATL in Economy + in a 767. That's a almost 10 hours flight. Seat pitch was really fine but besides of that no big difference from regular economy. Meal and drinks were the same and the seats were almost identical.

[sarinfserg]

I don’t think is worth it on a short flight, I’m sure, though, on a long flight the extra legroom is very much appreciate

[JAHughes]

Totally worth it!! I take this flight a lot. It’s like most fly class on Delta flights, in America.

[ryanfrisby]

I got bumped to Comfort Plus on DL Connection CRJ-900 with Endeaver from TPA-CVG and found the legroom amazing, even more than the standard economy seat on the mainline 737-800 I had going down!

[alejandropartida]

It is really worth it. You have sky priority access, a lot of extra legroom, and you can choose your snacks on most classes. I always fly comfort+ and it is the best🤩

[ryanc]

YES, Comfort + is incredibly worth it. Delta, the best US airline, provides amazing service. You get attentive service, unlimited snacks, tons of great legroom and recline, sky priority boarding, and I believe that the seat is more comfortable than main cabin. Highly recommend if you are tall and/or have a long trip.
EDIT: I said “Unlimited snacks” as of all the times I’ve flown Comfort+, FA’s have never take then tray away once you grab a snack.

[youngruff]

I’m 6’7. I fly delta comfort every chance I get because of the legroom. Those few extra inches make a big difference. And the free drinks are great too!

[JustinMorales]

This upcoming trip is our first trip in Comfort + and I wasnt sure what to expect. We originally booked an economy ticket and the price dropped after the required COVID tests coming into the country. So we took our original price that we paid and upgraded to Comfort+. Thanks for going over the benefits because I really had no idea. Thanks!

[lilseedy_boi]

Awesome video and nice landing, gotta love the reefs (I’m a resident of Bermuda)

[supa_hot_ice]

I went to the Delta Museum today, and I can see you weren't lying about your face being in the A350 video :D

[joshuav]

Sounds pretty decent, and that water was stunning! You’re not an aviation fan if you don’t like the window seat...

[lancescriber-neal]

I can only fly Delta Comfort or First though 6'1" is not the tallest, I cannot fit my legs in anything else. And I the free drinks.

[miata]

It is surprising that no one commented on the seat width; since that is the case, I will.

The economy plus seat on Delta's 738s is the same width as the regular coach seats, and that is what, 17.3 inches? Rubbing shoulders with the neighboring passengers is inevitable and 3 X 3 seating on a single-aisle 'plane is not my idea of "premium" anything. Being 5'-7" the extra pitch is not a selling point, and passing a snack basket once during a four-hour flight also is not worth the extra money. Delta's IFE is nice, but not extraordinarily so. However, treat myself for vacation travel so I buy the economy plus seat for the priority boarding. Sorry, Jeb, but I cannot be as enthusiastic about Delta's economy plus product as you seem to be.
