At the end they got up to 500 and decided to grab it after confirming they could put me in a MSP-AMS-CDG that arrived 5 minutes before the ATL-CDG segment. Moved from 767 on the ATL-CDG to a 330, which was much nicer.

Overall, nice experience with Delta, I'm considering switching to them...
Cool! Did you try to negotiate Delta One on MSP-AMS? That would have been a no brainer...
