Site like pda.continental.com for DL?

Does Delta have a website like pda.continental.com, where you can go look the day ahead and see where you are on the upgrade list?

Thanks.

I believe the answer is that there is a mobile website, but it doesn't have upgrade lists on it like the CO site does, unless there's a new feature that I'm not aware of.

On the other hand, DL does have gate monitors that show this and CO doesn't, so...

I hope the powers that be take the best of the mobile sites and adopt the nwa platform that at least allows a change in seats from any phone. I've found that feature very helpful!

The CO mobile site is amazing. DL needs something like that.

I agree. CO PDA site is way better. There is so much information and the info is easily accessible.

Upgrade list is a real nice feature (especially for airports without a GIDS), as well as equipment (ship) number (so we can see if a 737-800 has PTVs, etc.) as well as where the incoming equipment is coming from (good for looking ahead and seeing if the plane is going through a city with bad weather, etc.).

CO's pda site has a color ascii diagram of the seat map for your flight, which is very helpful if you are checking for availability (standby etc) or changing seats. the elite upgrage list and the standby upgrade list are on the pda site also, which is huge.

the flight status page on CO is much more user friendly than the DL version. As the above poster mentioned, you can check where your aircraft is coming from, which is great during IRROPS.

DeltaWebDev should go on a coast to coast junket on the major airlines (non-delta), with nothing but a blackberry. Get a good look at everyone else's best practices and incorporate them into the DL site.
