The first A320 to get new seats/cabin is still in mods. All the currently flying aircraft still have old seats.

N335NW is still in Mobile AL, but should be back is service in two weeks.
I'll be there Monday to start airflow and smoke detection testing.

Misscom.
Hi! I was wondering like if the Tray Table would be in the Seat-Back or in the Armrest! I think its the difference between A320-211/212/214. I really need help!

All the 320s I've been on had them in the armrest... and you can't use the tray table if the pax in front reclines since they'll be in your lap.

Can someone explain the difference between old vs. new F seats in these? I'll be flying MSP>JFK in early August in F. When booked the outbound was on a 737-800 but has since changed to an A320. The return will be on an A319.

ETA: Off topic a bit, but in researching my options before booking I was surprised by the number of smaller planes on this route. Lots of 717, some A319/A320...an occasional 737, and a surprising number of RJ for a hub to hub flight. Surprisingly, the options to connect through DTW had a good number of 757 between MSP and DTW. I'm sure one of you Delta know-it-alls would know why that is....just seems odd to me.

We haven't seen a 320 with the 'new' seats/mods yet. Supposedly its going from 12F back to 16F, however the entire cabin is going slimline which means they'll be packing more sardines in Y as well... so don't expect anything great in terms of legroom or comfort if you get a new one (which is unlikely as there won't be many done by Aug).

Yes, seating will be some form of slimline, but wider (18" vs. 17.2) and not the same as the ones in the 739's according to an anet thread. The cabin mods will apparently use the Zodiac "ISIS" system --

Um, it's a DL hub-to-hub route which tend to have quite a bit more capacity for connecting folks (as opposed to mainly O & D).

I figured that was the case, however, not being a big frequent flyer, I thought it seemed odd for one hub to hub route (MSP>DTW) to have bigger planes as opposed to another (MSP>JFK/LGA). Just an observation that made me curious.

They really need to rethink their branding! Same conundrum ISIS (the NFC payment company) had before they switched their name to SoftCard.

They should go for "Tally-Ban" systems

From what I hear, a re-branding effort is underway.
It is likely that the word "smart" will be part of it.

Flying in October
Hello I'm flying October 8th LGA TO MCO on an A320. I was wondering what the odds of the refurbished A320 are
