Is there a light at the end of the poor soft product PS tunnel?
According to Delta’s latest news release (morning of March 15th), “Customers can expect additional enhancements to the Delta Premium Select in-flight experience later this year.”
I really hope it means going back to pre-pandemic days for this otherwise not bad at all product.

As someone who did PS, C+ and C- TATL during the last weeks i would not spend an extra $ for PE over C+. This es especially true right now with planes still relatively empty. If you can get an duo seat in C+ for yourself you will have more comfort then in a PE seat because of the fixed armrest in PE.
Absolutely no difference in service for someone paying + $ 1000 over the guy flying on an basic economy fare. I still have some memories from "back then" when we had hot tissues/towels in Y, an extra drink and nuts service before the dinner ( which had about 50% more food as the ones served right now ), a ice cream snack in between....but then maybe i's just my age.

Do Premium Select passengers have Fast Track Security at LHR
I'm travelling DELTA for the first time on a TATL (LHR>SLC) in Premium select (G). Do I have access to Fast Track security at LHR T3 or SLC?

When they launched the product in 2017/2018, it might have been too good relative to the marketplace, but today it’s totally garbage.
Flew to CDG last week on a DL A350. Catering was the worst that Delta has had since the merger with NW and made USAir economy catering circa 2009 seem edible.
Flight crew was totally useless and received better service in comfort plus on a 550 mile domestic flight.
Return to US on Air France Premium Economy was light years better in terms of service, and at least the food was edible

I've been flying regularly AF Premium Economy for years. They serve the regular Economy meal plus a small appetizer and a small dessert that are a bit different than economy. Have they recently upgraded their meal offering (i.e. last two months)? If not, I've always found DL Economy meals way better than in AF. I would take a Premium Select seat over a Premium Economy AF seat in a 777 any day.

Improved/Added Premium Economy on AF/KL
This is a brand new offering by AF to enhance PE. DL is truly now the bottom of the barrel with their "Big Middle Seat" version of PE

And my experience in March was the exact opposite. Flight to Charles de Gaulle Delta was great. Flight back on AirFrance did they load a crew? Well yes they did but they didn’t actually want to actually interact with passengers. After they threw the food at us they were never seen again and speaking of food the Frenchman next to me apologized on behalf of his country for providing that garbage (it was that bad - that’s the worst meal the French have ever produced.😀
I was actually very disappointed because I booked it this way on purpose assuming that air France based on reports here was a better choice. Not on my flights.
