It's a new cabin:http://www.delta.com/content/www/en_...m-economy.html
However, I'll stick by my assertion that the name sounds like Premium Economy light, just like Priority Pass Select means that you don't have privileges in all of their lounges. Maybe DL should have named basic economy to be Main Cabin Select--it sounds fancier.

I was confused by the term "Premium Select" too.
After a bit of searching, I realized Delta changed "Delta Premium," as their Premium Economy product was called when announced three weeks ago, to "Delta Premium Select."

Some TPAC routes are A330 and even 767. Sometimes the aircraft type changes seasonally. This could be very confusing.

I don't know why gate agents would try to deny downgrade compensation. Not only is it a standard procedure, but it (1) doesn't do any harm to the agent or station and (2) makes the customer happier and easer to deal with. Feels like some agents just live for the confrontation lol.
