Do movies on those 757, 738, 763, 762, MD90 not count? How many movies does NW have on domestic routes. Yes, I will assume that you are talking about in seat IFE. Not sure by what you mean that Delta doesn't have it on international flights.

The people who run this website show that Delta has the best availability and for one day a few months ago we got to look at RON availability. There were 9 FC seats available to HNL on the same plane.

As an example, alcohol is still free on international Y on NW and AF (SkyTeam members). Their food is also better, but that could be my personal taste.
Actually, I agree. I have always said that allowing LUT upgrades was a big mistake but clearly Delta took a LOT of flack on this one. As to alcohol, I say charge everyone for it, even in FC, domestically and internationally.

Their food is probably better, Delta's sucks. But food is not service, the service is the bringing of the food.
