Yes, I was referring to the "extra legroom" seats which are only a few rows back in regular economy... no expectation they would UG us to Premium Eco here although I wouldn't complain

... not a big deal but still...
Even though they are not skyteam which is understandable, the main issue I have is that DL actually moved their operations at LHR to the Virgin terminal, so I don't think it is unreasonable that they provide some sort of DL/Skyteam/Partner lounge in this major hub. Then again, they've been paring down benefits for some time now with their "enhancements" so it's not that surprising. Overall, still probably a win because the Virgin clubhouses in the US are 10 times better than any Skyclub but would be nice if they could negotiate us into the LHR lounges but I doubt it's their priority at this point...
