N1613B
*Note: This configuration is used inclusive on SEA-PVG, ATL-LOS. It also frequently works SEA-ATL to provide rotation. These aircraft do cover flights to Europe All 36J seats will be sold because it has a crew rest module installed. Also, the Y seats are the older ones like the 777 with the older IFE system (only 767-300ER type with that, all others are the newer seats/system).
**All retired 6/30/2020 due to COVID-related fleet simplifications

What DL is believed to do is put all flights with 26J as the 76Z Version 2 configuration and then change it to 76Z Version 1 closer to departure as needed. If you select 20-21CDE when it is 76Z Version 2 and it changes to 76Z Version 1, it should seat you in 13-14CDE considering that 20-21CDE doesn't exist on the configuration it changed to. All other seats are numbered the same regardless of Version 1 or 2, although there may be minor differences such as row 20 being an exit row on Version 1.

Yes, but AFAIK DL has never committed or stated anything about 763 getting new D1 cabins. The 764s have always been used for heavier D1 routes. Thus makes sense that only 764 would get new D1.

Another clue that the refurbished 763 doesn't have the new D1 seats is that seat count remains at 26 (same as the current 76Z with the existing D1 seats). Current 76Z config is 26 D1 + 35 Comfort Plus + 165 Main Cabin. If the new seat count with the addition of 18 PS seats is correct (26J+18PS+21W+151Y), then it means they did not extend the footprint of the D1 cabin (but the new D1 Suite-like seat takes up more space, hence the refurbished 764 went from 40 D1 to 34 D1 seats in the same area).

If you check the current 76Z seat map, the new PS cabin of 18 seats (so 3 rows of 2-2-2) kind of takes the place of rows 13-16 of the current Comfort Plus. While the new Comfort Plus of 21 seats (3 rows) kind of lines up with the existing rows 17-19 etc. The current rows 20-42 in the Main Cabin are exactly 151 seats (which is what the new config supposedly has for Main Cabin).

They were D1 before. Now that nothing has changed, you're saying they're not D1 anymore?

I think it's fine, and correct, to call them D1 seats. Your use of the word "suite" however is where you get lashed

Ok group, need some more insight. Was it this thread or another one that stated that no Delta B767-300ER's other than "Z1" versions will ever return to active duty as a DL aircraft? That being said, In looking at my favorite sight to find current status's of frames (rzjets.net), it doesn't show any of the version L's (8 remaining active of the original 10) with the "WFU" status, or any of the version Z2's (2 of the original 5) shown as "WFU" status, or any of the version T's (all 7 active) with the "WFU" status. In attempting to do web searches of these "WFU" changes - I have found none. So, I guess that leaves just Delta Airlines that knows for sure the status's of these small groups of different B767-300ER planes. I guess I am asking if anyone can say for certain that these "76E" anomalies are in fact "removed from service" Sorry, I got a bit wordy here - but I would like to keep my DL info sheet as current as possible. Thanks to all of you in advance.

188 is in the air a day early. However, neither its current flight (JFK-LAX, DL326) nor the flights 188 is scheduled for for tomorrow show the new config seat-map wise, either on Expertflyer nor dl.com.

N190DN will be - just not real soon.....was hoping you had connections on the B767-300ER interior updates schedule. No "T" or "L" or "Z2" versions will be converted, as most (or all) have been withdrawn from use and/or have been stated as all ready having their last revenue flight on the rzjets.net website. The remaining "Z1" frames that have been built post 1995 will probably be updated - this then would keep about 32 usable frames in service. Currently there are 20 or 21 active which leaves 10 or 11 that are still being stored that will need to be activated again. Just N188DN has been interior upgraded - and no hurry in putting the PS seats into the B767-300ER's. The majority of the 767's are currently being used domestically and or hub to hub.

A simple refresh to the IFE would be marvelous. I hate jabbing my finger at those small, dingy, yellowing screens.

On another note, my thinking on the converted group of the B767-300ER's (all Z1 versions - roughly 30-32), is a mixture of GE and PW engines. One would have thought that DL might have upgraded only GE's (or PW's) - not both....just thinking that less parts (or engines) to keep on hand. Thinking inside the box - and (to me) makes logical since. Any feedback is welcomed.

N197DN is back in service.
N176DZ is en route to VCV. Still unknown if that is for paint, retirement, longer-term storage, or something else.

It's been at ILN since 1-Apr-2020. It was built in 1999 -one of the newer 76E's Delta has. This frame I would have expected to have been one of the surviving air craft on DL's fleet. VCV is generally the graveyard - but there could be exceptions. Anyone know the number of cycles this guy has, and whether its up for a major check?
