A glorious day for a few employees. I'm on a flight with no one left to upgrade. 1 empty seat and 3 NRSA's in F and NO SHENA.

Also had 1 empty in F on my first flight this AM.

I SDC'd my 3rd segment and got an instant upgrade on the new flight. The 4th and last had cleared at T-5 along with the first 3.

Wonder if NRSA's have a Shena thread of their own somewhere?

It looks like I chose a weird day for an MQM MR. My next flight (#4 and last of the trip has 3 empty in F, ALL upgrades have cleared, and there are 4 NRSA's left awaiting seats. There are 80+ open in back.

The competition in the SEA market must really be getting fierce.

Every flight I've taken today has been half empty.

It this Cinco De Mayo recovery day?

it's approx 2200 here in SEA, which means it's approx 0100 in kipperland, so I will have to channel her ...

Greetings everyone. I am not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this but, can anyone tell me which international routes offer delta first class seating? Can their be first class seating from say Shanghai to Paris? All I am seeing is First/Business, which is only showing business class seats. Thank you.

FC, on Delta, is only for domestic flights and it is far below Delta's international Business Class product. Many (most?) international business class cabins have lie flat seats with each having aisle access. I was not aware, however, that Delta flew Shanghai to Paris. I thought all of its flights started or ended in the US.

Delta does not fly PVG-CDG, that I am aware of. It would be an MU or AF codeshare (if appearing as a Delta flight #), most likely. MU and AF do offer first class on some of their routes. As we all know, you cannot redeem SkyMiles for any IFC product, but one would be able to book revenue first class and credit to their SkyMiles account.

Can you get a Delta codeshare flight on MU or AF flights without your itinerary starting or ending in the US? I know that I cannot fly TLV-Europe on any SkyTeam flight with a Delta codeshare number unless I am connecting to a US-bound flight.
