Power plug connection adaptor fiir Delta
I am a NW Worldperks who often flys Delta to get WP points. I need some help on how to plug into the power outlets. On NW, it is simply a three prong connections but on Delta, there is some kind on an adoptor that I noticed people had. What exactly is it, what is it called (I am a non-techie), can I order it on line, what does it cost?
Any help much appreciated as I have a long flight on Delta coming up.
Thanks

It's called "emPower", and you'll need one if you're lucky enough to get a flight that has functioning outlets. Check Seatguru to see if your seat will have an outlet before you buy. The folks in the Travel Tech forum have several threads explaining how to buy emPower adaptors.

The refurbushed 763's on int'l have a standard three prong outlet in the B/E seats. AFAIK they don't have anything in coach. (except for the outlet in the LAV...you could recharge your laptop there... )

There are also standard US 3-prong outlets in F on the reconfigured ex-Song 757s. Just be sure if you have a laptop to disable charging or you can trip the breaker for the row. Note that if you have a Dell, disabled charging is a "feature" of all third-party adapters like iGo...
