757 Premium Select

We are booked in Premium Select from LIS to BOS. I cannot find much about the Premium Select seat on the 757. Has anyone experienced the 757 PS product. Rather long flight after what should be an interesting experience leaving LIS. Thanks.

The seat is a domestic F seat. I can't comment on the service but I imagine there are some trip reports out there.

In general expect the same type of service as domestic first, plus a pre-arrival meal. The seats are a couple of inches wider than A350/777 seats, but don't have leg rests.

Yep, they don't have a dedicated 757 PS fleet and just rotate in domestic 757's and market the F seats as PS. Today's BOS-LIS flight was operated by N823DX which arrived from DTW the night before as flight DL1145.

Are all of the domestic 757's ETOPS certified?

I’ve said this many times on here but this is really dumb. Because they market it as PS, it is impossible to purchase domestic FC on any domestic legs at booking, even though it’s basically the same seat on both flights. DL should really include domestic FC on connecting legs with PS tickets on the 757 only.

No, the 75D’s do not have ETOPS certifications. Only the 75S, 75G, 75H, and 753 are ETOPS equipped.

It's a smart move to use the domestic configured 757 with the FC seats, to serve more leisure thin markets and have a PS service, so not lay flat and modest food improvement.

As others have stated, it's a standard domestic F seat. I flew the product to Iceland last month and was pretty impressed with the service and cabin crew in both directions (something I won't ordinarily find myself saying on a US airline). With that said, the seat is not particularly comfortable for a flight of that length, but it was manageable. Next time I'd probably go via EWR on UA since they fly lie flats.
