P not "premium"

They are a great way to get a discounted First Class fare that, on occasion, is cheaper than a non-discounted full Y fare. But the caveat is the non-refundable status on most, but not all P fares. Check your fare rules carefully. As for seating, you may choose any available seat in the First Class cabin. Aircraft type will determine the seating type.
+1. "P" used to mean "premium," but now it's just another discounted F, like A.

Check the seat map and the diagrams: http://www.delta.com/planning_reserv...yout/index.jsp.
