They could at least update the TV section with some different episodes of Friends, or other sitcoms, or add some reality TV programs; plus they must have a ton of movies in their library they could add. I have emailed Delta, tweeted them about this. No response. I know it is of such minor concern, and safety comes first...I get it, but it seems like such a simple switch to make customers that have had to fly a ton during this pandemic happy. The middle seat is nice and all, but give me a Diet Coke and a new TV show to watch while flying and I would be such a happy flier
Oh man, that sucks. They are obviously trying to save money by not paying for new movies, but if they’re paying for the current batch they might as well rotate it. I have no idea how it works or how they pay for having a library.
I’m glad I asked. This is my first flight since the pandemic hit and it’s not long, just going from Alaska to Virginia so it’s only about 10 hour of flying. Red eye to Seattle so I’ll be sleeping. I think I can find something to read or watch for the rest of time :-)

worst part for me is not having a cold soda or ice water available. I hate warm water and a warm soda is worse. And I hate carrying food but it looks like I’m going to need to at least have some snacks. My 2 layovers (Seattle and Detroit) are both barely an hour. Hopefully I’ll be able to at least grab a sandwich at a Starbucks or someplace.
