Fuck Delta and their shit Comfort+ and fuck them for not letting elites book it gratis anymore. Lipstick on a pig (the MD-90 is a piece of crap and a flying death trap).

You can still book it gratis. Click the upgrade option on the app and check the comfort box - aren't Accenture people supposed to be techy? 😂😂😂

D1, as of May 26th they've taken that away. Clicking upgrade now just puts you on a waitlist for day of departure. You gotta pay for the crap now. My redcoat friend said it's been awful for them since the change.

Don't have to pay. Just wait a few minutes after you select upgrade and choose your seat.
