Got an email today saying "comfort + is exactly what you need to seamlessly make your connection."
And has a link to choose seats.
Two problems:
1. I don't have any active reservations
2. I booked a last minute ticket yesterday morning for a flight later in the day and there were no c+ seats available.
If this is in response to my booking, this shows DL IT at its best!

Although, this would be a good marketing move - "we see you have 40 minutes to connect from B10 to F15 at MSP. Why don't you buy up to C+ to only miss you connection by 10 minutes instead of 20"

MCO-LAX-NRT is one of the worst. 40 minutes. We're informed enough to avoid something like that, but the average traveler isn't. DL just making trouble for themselves here.

..Anyways.. Good luck though. Probably a good idea to make that swap, then maybe just maybe you'll have a shot at a Porsche when you get there
One can dream right. Also once again, back to my point, why the ugly Panamera. Coulda' went for something stylish like the Maserati Quatraporte, but nope; It just had to be that hideous excuse for a sports car. Oh and also, top speed is useless on a tarmac. So, what's the point of a sports car anyhow? Might as well get a Bentley. I once again rest my case.

My rant is... How long does it take DL to answer a complaint? I sent in a legitimate compliant several months about FL 1774 and two since and have not gotten one response yet.

If they did that, mark my words they'd go straight over the woodford and provide OJ and Mimosa
One critical flaw however is the shared TV on board, imagine when two siblings get in a fight over what they want to watch.
Aside from that, much much more desirable IMO to a Porsche.

The new Panamera (2017 model year) actually looks pretty good. And I wasn't a fan of the current one either.
