Exact same issue here. Sometimes the Diamond line will place my order with very vague definitions. “A sandwich like a BLT or Burrito or Hamburger. Well that’s helpful. Two FAs showed me a note on the manifest that this is a known problem and IT is working on it, so we should get our first email sometime in 2020. |

So I just ignored .... although I would have been curious to see what would happen if I selected fish on domestic first. !!!!
I've never known Delta to offer a fish meal. It certainly isn't among the list of options offered on Delta.com for special meals. |
Flew last night MSP to SAN and when they came around to talk about dinner he started with "Im sorry but all of the chicken was pre-selected so we only have the second choice" which went over REAL well with the entire cabin. Sigh.
Don't you think if they knew they were out and since they have 24 hours they could adjust and still offer some choice? |

On my last two round trips I received the email on the outbound only around T-72 and nothing for the return. My mom had the same experience last week also. |
Just received an email for SFO-SEA at aprox. T-70. Breakfast flight, choice of chorizo omelette or corn chex cereal & yogurt. (I went with the cereal).

That chorizo omelette might be the best domestic airline breakfast I have had in 20 years. And I continue to be dumbfounded that DL still hasn't learned that the higher carb option is almost always the one left over. Until this meal pre-selection affects what they stock the planes, it is a useless exercise. |

Got 2 emails today, a few hours apart, for Tuesday’s SFO-MSP and MSP-TPA. I like this new F perk; I like knowing what to expect—it helps me decide what/whether to eat or not eat in the Skyclubs. ^ |

It was actually a great flight, other than that. And, no, I never have been offered the pre-select option, and have just got used to not expecting choices any more, especially since I usually like to sit in the last row of first class. |
Pre-select emails went out to both my spouse and myself today for a breakfast flight at about T-70. I was happy to see our choices were accepted by the system as my last F flight about a month ago I had to get Twitter involved as the system would error out. Fingers crossed the meals stick and we get a pre-select for the return as well! |
