Annoying because this is basically the main reason I got ExpertFlyer to begin with.
As noted at the top of the Seat Map page for a DL seat Map:
Economy Comfort seats will always be shown as Blocked or Occupied regardless of actual status.
Therefore a Seat Alert for those seats will never alert you to anything as DL doesn't share the true status of those seats at this time.
