Status Changes:
There have been a couple of questions regarding C+ when a member's status drops down after January 31. Typically, seats will hold unless there is an equipment change. If there's a change, the passenger(s) will most likely be seated in regular economy. There are reports of some success contacting @delta to get reseated in C+.

On March 1, 2015, DL rebranded Economy Comfort as "Comfort+."

Comfort+ FAQ - LINK
Offering:
- C+ is a complimentary upgrade (space available) for DM and PM after booking. GM can access for free at T-72 and FO at T-24. (There is no longer a discount for GM/FO.)
- Sky Priority boarding
- Extra legroom and, on international a/c, extra recline
- Free wine, spirits and regional craft beers, plus premium snacks
Complimentary premium entertainment from Delta Studio(No longer relevant as of July 1st; Entertainment now complimentary in Y)- On JFK-LAX/SFO flights, a Luvo sandwich wrap and frozen Greek yogurt bar, pillow, blanket, and sleep kit are included
A few general notes regarding DL C+:
- On international a/c, the bulkhead seats often have a significant amount leg room (other than the 764).
- The bulkhead and exit row seats are often narrower as the tray table and/or IFE unit are in the arm rests. The arm rests do not move which, coupled with a smaller seat, can be uncomfortable for larger pax.
- The first row of regular economy seating after EC IS NOT recommended. The last row of EC has the EC recline and members have reported that there's no extra space between this row and the first row of regular Y.
- Selecting C+ Seats - You cannot select or purchase C+ seats until after booking is completed on revenue or award tickets. The UG has to clear as well.

747-400 / 744 / 74S:
- dl.com seat map: 747-400
Rows 22-26 - 42 total C+ seats. - Legroom:
Row 22 ABC/HJK and 24 DEFG are the bulkhead seats. 22C/H are noted as having unlimited legroom and some have noted that people can congregate due to the proximity of the lavatories, which are located directly in front of the first row of C+ on the 744. 22ABC have recently received poor reviews because of the lav and galley - people tend to congregate in this area and it can become stinky. Comments on 22K indicate that pax can access the aisle without disturbing other passengers. Also, the lavatory near 22HJK is blocked for BusinessElite pax, so there tends to be fewer disturbances and become less smelly over the course of a long flight. Also, seats 22B and 22J can be used for bassinets.
Some might prefer the legroom of row 35/51 on the 744 with less recline and tray in armrest. - Related Threads and Posts:

On the 764, the bulkhead seats (row 15) have less leg room than the 763's; there's probably about 2' or so between the edge of the seat and the wall. The bulkhead seats do not have moveable arm rests and the tray table/IFE monitor are in the arm rests. In my experience, I felt like the A332/333 and 763's had better recline in EC than the 764. - IFE:

Hi Everyone,
I know this is a topic that has been discussed in many threads...decided to create a one-stop-thread. Also, many of us have now had the chance to utilize the Comfort+ section on C+ equipped flights. I figured this could serve as a consolidated thread especially as people come to the forum looking for answers. I've put the a/c I am familiar with below and have pulled info from other threads.
I will happily update information I do not have based on others' input. For now, I'll leave it with the international equipped a/c and the thread can be updated with domestic information as the program is rolled out.
Please let me know if I missed anything!
Thanks!

Economy Comfort:
NOTE:
1. The bulkhead seats often have a significant amount leg room (other than the 764). These seats are narrower as the tray table and/or IFE unit are in the arm rests in some cases. The arm rests do not move which, coupled with a smaller seat, can be uncomfortable for larger pax.

Legroom: See link below for pics of legroom on the modified 763ERs, which is still decent, but not as good prior to modification. The bulkhead seats do not have moveable arm rests. On 763's with row 20 and 21 as C+ seats, note these are both exit rows and seats recline in both rows.
On the 763's (not all types), there is a lavatory for Y passengers on the AB side. Passengers waiting to use the lav can congregate in the open area by the bulkheads. In some instances, passengers use the space in front of the CDE bulkhead seats to move to the other aisle. There is a lav on the FG side, but it is reserved for J passengers.

Flying to Hawaii in EC:
- From DL's EC page: 3-4" (7-10 cm) extra legroom/ Up to 50% more recline on select routes (JFK to/from SFO or LAX, and ATL to/from HNL). However, I believe that not all of the a/c used on the routes have additional recline - it is a/c dependent and alcoholic drinks are not complementary.
- Cost appears to be up to $99 for EC to/from Hawaii.

Economy Comfort Companions:
There has been a bit of discussion on whether or not companions on a different PNR can be seated with a DM/PM (international) or DM/PM/GM (domestic) in EC for free. The T&C specify that companions must be on the same PNR.
However, in practice, DL appears to be honoring an EC seat assignment for one companion.

Status Changes:
There have been a couple of questions regarding EC when a member's status drops down after February 28/29. Typically, seats will hold unless there is an equipment change. If there's a change, the passenger(s) will most likely be seated in regular economy. There are reports of some success contacting @deltaassist to get reseated in EC.

I know this is a topic that has been discussed in many threads...decided to create a one-stop-thread. Also, many of us have now had the chance to utilize the Comfort+ section on C+ equipped flights. I figured this could serve as a consolidated thread especially as people come to the forum looking for answers. I've put the a/c I am familiar with below and have pulled info from other threads.
I will happily update information I do not have based on others' input. For now, I'll leave it with the international equipped a/c and the thread can be updated with domestic information as the program is rolled out.
Please let me know if I missed anything!
Thanks!

Economy Comfort:
NOTE:
1. The bulkhead seats often have a significant amount leg room (other than the 764). These seats are narrower as the tray table and/or IFE unit are in the arm rests in some cases. The arm rests do not move which, coupled with a smaller seat, can be uncomfortable for larger pax.
2. The first row of regular economy seating after C+ IS NOT recommended. The last row of C+ has the C+ recline and members have reported that there's no extra space between this row and the first row of regular Y.
Recent thread on booking EC seats: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/delta...ooking-ec.html
Selecting C+ Seats: You cannot select C+ seats until after booking is completed on revenue or award tickets.
International Aircraft:
Per DL, International/transoceanic Comfort+ offers up to 35" pitch and 6" recline. (LINK)
747 - International:
Rows 22-26 - 42 total C+ seats.
Legroom:
Row 22 ABC/HJK and 24 DEFG are the bulkhead seats. 22C/H are noted as having unlimited legroom and some have noted that people can congregate due to the proximity of the lavatories, which are located directly in front of the first row of EC on the 744. 22ABC have recently received poor reviews because of the lav and galley - people tend to congregate in this area and it can become stinky. Comments on 22K indicate that pax can access the aisle without disturbing other passengers. Also, the lavatory near 22HJK is blocked for BusinessElite pax, so there tends to be fewer disturbances and become less smelly over the course of a long flight. Also, seats 22B and 22J can be used for bassinets.
Some might prefer the legroom of row 35/51 on the 744 with less recline and tray in armrest.

Flying to Hawaii in EC:
- From DL's EC page: 3-4" (7-10 cm) extra legroom/ Up to 50% more recline on select routes (JFK to/from SFO or LAX, and ATL to/from HNL). However, I believe that not all of the a/c used on the routes have additional recline - it is a/c dependent and alcoholic drinks are not complementary.
- Cost appears to be up to $99 for EC to/from Hawaii.

EC and Priority Boarding/Baggage Allowance:

Economy Comfort Companions:
There has been a bit of discussion on whether or not companions on a different PNR can be seated with a DM/PM (international) or DM/PM/GM (domestic) in EC for free. The T&C specify that companions must be on the same PNR.
The Economy Comfort Medallion travel companion benefit is applicable for up to eight companions traveling on the same reservation as the Medallion member.

Status Changes:
There have been a couple of questions regarding EC when a member's status drops down after February 28/29. Typically, seats will hold unless there is an equipment change. If there's a change, the passenger(s) will most likely be seated in regular economy. There are reports of some success contacting @deltaassist to get reseated in EC.

I've been on the 752v1. All coach has IFE on these but most content requires payment. The EC seats have complimentary movies and other programming.
Edit: This was on domestic flights. I'm not sure if they change the IFE on TATL flights to give all coach movies. Haven't ever had the pleasure of a TATL flight in a 752.

Wow! Thanks for this! I've got a flight coming up in EC on a 777 at the end of the year and was just wondering if it would be worth trying to get row 31 from the GA when I get there. Sounds like it might be better than 34. My only question not covered here is whether or not having a window seat in 31 is worth it or if you're still just looking at a whole lot of wing?

Greetings from 31A on a 777 (waiting for departure to DXB). Legroom is awesome. View of engine pod is second to none. 
I got the bulkhead at the gate. Was originally in a non-EC aisle. Was charged $80 at the gate, even as a PM. Does that sound correct to you guys? GA said only Diamonds get free EC but that, as a PM, I got a 50% discount. I paid up obviously but was definitely surprised to have to do so.

I believe DL will make refund, just write a complain on DL.com.
