No way I would pay $300 for a lie flat for a 2.45 hr flight during the day. |
Agreed, not worth it. Let a poor elite get it for free. :)
|
$100 per hour seems high. I'd pass.
|
I'm 6'5 and no way am I giving $299 for a domestic flight if I'm already in C+!
Now for biz to Europe or Asia, sold! |

Hello, I suppose I am the only one who can really answer my question but I am interested in your input. I am flying DL MKE-DTW-PHX in F. I am in Economy Comfort (or whatever it’s called now) on the way back PHX-MSP-MKE. I got an offer to upgrade PHX-MSP in F for $299. I am tempted because the seats on this route are lie-flat and that would be nice. It’s about a three hour flight which isn’t long. So what are your thoughts....is the extra $299 I would be paying worth it? Thanks! |
If you're planning to sleep some, go for it. If not, I'd save the money.
|
Yeah, I'd definitely pass on this one.

Personally I wouldn't do it for that price but everyone's different. Did you look at the seat map to see your upgrade chances?

No way. If you are a Plat and have some chance of comp upgrade, paying $299 nullifies your complimentary elite perks. Granted it's not a sure thing but why give in to delta's coffer and pay when you've already paid to earn up the ranks. To me, that's silly.

The F seat map currently shows 16 empty seats. The agent I talked to thought my chances of getting upgraded were “good” but of course that’s very subjective. The funny thing is they also had 48,000 miles for an automatic upgrade. I just upgraded from PS to D1 on a MSP-ICN flight this summer for 40,000 miles! Much better deal! |

Jiburi SDC can be very valuable. |
I personally would not for this route. Lie flat is nice but for this length of a flight I don’t think it’s worth it. Hopefully you’ll get your upgrade. When is your flight? |
