OP bought 2 seats to get from A-B - that's it. DL will provide that. Nothing more. Enjoy. Safe travels.

Maybe it's because it's Sunday night here, but I don't have clue about what you are talking.

On the other hand A can lean on to the window and annoyingly climb over B quite often to the lav. C can have the perks of aisle seat.
As you can see, it sucks to be in middle. The false leverage is just to mentally make up the misfortune.

OP: Don't listen to these people....you're absolutely right demanding two J seats for your atrocious troubles.
Quite frankly, forget J - you should be asking for vouchers on: http://www.deltaprivatejets.com/

Sounds like a reasonable demand!

Since the OP has never returned it's possible that he took a course in reading comprehension and read the T&C's, original seat maps, etc.
In any case, since the thread is no longer meaningful, how about a mod shutting it down?

I swear I think I have mild cases of both of those. I like to get up often and that's only realistic I the aisle, but I also like to see out the window when we land, otherwise I may get airsick. I want an option for an aisle with a guarantee the window passenger will leave the window open for the final descent. I'd pay extra for that.
- Long-haul BE with 1-2-1 seating
- RJs with 1-2 seating
- Buy the whole row on everything else
- DPJ
In all seriousness, I usually go for the aisle because I don't like feeling trapped in the window, but I also love looking out the window. I have a small internal debate every time I open a seat map... The single seats on RJs and long-haul BE are always a joy to ride in.
