DL owns 49% of virgin. Probably the same team developed the apps and just changed the colors...efficient ha

Weird. The playstore is where I downloaded from yesterday and when I go in, it shows 5.1. I posted in another thread a screenshot from within the app showing 5.1.

I don't know the details of publishing mobile apps but it wouldn't surprise me if updates are rolled out to users in stages either by the publisher or by Google or both. Guess I'll just keep checking back periodically

Anyway, 5.1 is much better. Seems they might read this thread after all. Seat map is usable again.
Go Delta.

Saw that too. I love that the preselect meal option is available in the app now, long overdue. But 21 days sounds pretty ambitious. Will be interesting to see if and/or how often the catering changes within T minus 3 weeks.

I don’t think this will be much of a problem. AA has been doing this for a few years now with no major issues and I believe they let you select meals up to 30 days prior to departure.

Just some minor feedback regarding the new meal pre-select in the app: The app notes say the segment should be eligible to pre-select a meal at 21 days from "check-in." I can confirm that the more accurate statement is that meal selection becomes available at 21 days from "departure." This is even true on exception routes that do not list a meal being served, but one does actually occur. Example: SEA-ANC that departs after the dinner cutoff window. The "dinner" option is never listed, but a meal is always served. Sure enough, at 21 days from departure the option becomes available. Return portions of itineraries will become available as that individual segment hits the 21 day window.
