Because Delta still can't stop the website from falling over randomly and for no good reason?

One good thing I saw in the T&Cs was explicit clarification about SDC:
This is in contrast with main cabin stating is needs to be in the same fare class. Except, DL is hiding the fare class so you don't know what it is when getting flight results. Insane

Sent in my feedback on the updated booking UI/UX, as well as these upcoming rebranding and 'experiences'.

I suggest others send in their comments as well... its the only way DL will know they are making it more confusing, annoying, and difficult to book.

Delta, and others, have been overly complex for decades. I think my Delta PhD may have expired.

Fare class is shown after flight selection. It does take one more step, but they are not hiding it. It’s not particularly useful for SDC since it doesn't actually show which classes have inventory open, just what is for sale. You need an EF account to see actual open classes.

Delta thinks its customers are enormously stupid and just looking for ways to give them more money more money, especially when it’s OPM.

I’ve been wrong before but one phrase keeps coming to mind about this particular move…

DL may not be hiding fare class, but they're not making it easy to consider when making decisions about what ticket to purchase.

United: Unveils beautiful new Polaris Suite Product.

Delta: Unveils even more confusing branding scheme across all cabins, laying groundwork to cut perks by "unbundling", which is really price discrimination to extract more revenue by bundling.

Why do I have to go through multiple additional steps just to get the fare class at the end of the process navigating through the different 'experiences' and upsells before I pay? And thats on the website. The app doesn't show it even at booking unless I tap on each individual flight at the booking page to see what it is. What a cluster f*ck of a UX

Wow! So if I buy Delta Main Extra over Delta Main Classic, that gives me a tiebreaker for that one bulkhead seat in F over the 43 others on the list…

This is getting as complicated as boarding groups…

LOL, yeah, or a tie-breaker for that one precious middle C+ seat if you’re in the unwashed low-status classes.

Anyone who chooses to buy any of the “extra” fares is simply self-selecting as an incredibly easy mark.

Sounds like that tiebreak is at the end, after other main items such as million miler, elite status, spend, credit card etc etc.

HAHA that was awesome. 😝

NO, "Extra" means that the ticket is fully refundable (without a fee) to the original means of purchase (credit card, etc.).

THIS. Not to go down a rabbit hole, but I find it funny that for ages after Polaris launched, everyone complained about getting the 'old' J (PMCO or PMUA) product being advertised as Polaris. Now it feels like Delta is way way way behind United in terms of a consistent hard product, still operating 3(?) distinct products between the reverse herringbone, crappy 767 and 'new' Delta One Suites...
