Maybe you've just had bad luck? That, or my brain is doing some revisionist history on me (also possible...).
I wouldn't rule out bad luck on my part, but I know I haven't had it on DL metal on any JFK-LHR/AMS/CDG/TXL flight in the last two or three years--sample size probably about a dozen eastbound, TATL flights ex JFK.
Maybe one difference is time of departure? I tend to prefer flights leaving after 6:30 or 7, even 8 or so, so maybe one factor is DL wanting to get the service done faster so they can turn the lights out.
