767-400 Laptop Power
Delta's site says that the 764 has laptop power ports. Has anyone ever used these? (Where are the ports located?) I am thinking about buying the adapter as I have 3 upcoming flights longer than 5hrs each on a 764(ughhh...). Any comments would be much appreciated. Thanks!

The 764 has laptop power at every seat in F. In coach, for the 767-400, each seat group has Empower outlets installed. Although there are not enough outlets for every single passenger (two outlets for a triple seat group), there is access available in all areas of the cabin.
The triple seat group seatup mirrors AA's setup and availability for the power ports.

I believe, and this is what I am unsure about, that the 2 seat sides has only 1 unit in between both seats. Unfortuantely, I don't sit back there all the time.
The seat maps on delta don't show the Empower units, unlike the seat maps on AA.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful than my original answer which came directly from my contact inside Delta. If I find out more, I'll let you know. I've only flown F on the 764.

It would be nice if Delta would wake up and provide such maps including power points. Why is DL always so far behind in providing useful info to their customers?</font>

Go check out the CO site, and them come back over here. You'll find that you have a wealth of info on Delta.com, comparitively...

Power Outlets on the 764
I knew that they had the DC outlets under each seat in F/Y, but I was seated in 17A and noticed a regular AC set of power outlets. I still haven't broken down and bought a DC/AC converter (Christmas??), so this was extremely convenient. The question is, are these new? and what seats are they in?

From a 2002 thread doing a search for Power Outlets...

Although I appreciate the link, I am not referring to the Empower Ports. I am referring to the standard AC power ports that I have only seen at 17A. I have sat in F and have not seen any, and 17G does not have one either.

Sorry, mis-read the question. If I was on the cleaning crew and used them, I could probably help you. Occassionally, I'll also spot them on planes, but I've never documented the location since I do have the empower units. It's amazing because not many people know that the AC outlets exist on the plane. I used to use one on AS all the time in row 25 of an MD-80.

Be careful with those outlets. They are in place for the cleaning crews and operate at 400 Hz. Not good for your laptop converter.
