Hello - newly made Delta Gold. I know it doesn’t mean a lot in terms of status but when I book travel in the future can I preselect Delta Comfort seats where it shows starred seats on Trips? TIA

Delta Comfort are not the starred seats in Trips. Those are simply the preferred Economy seats (come up as blue if open on the Delta website seatmap). Gold does not have immediate access to Comfort Plus if I remember correctly (but it has been 12 years since I was Gold so I don’t remember).

As far as I know you can’t. I think gold comfort plus seats don’t clear until 5 days before maybe? But even as Diamond I select a normal/preferred main cabin seat on trips and wait for the Delta app to upgrade me.

like

The delta benefits page will say the time window before you clear for comfort+ or first class. Looks like it clears up to 3 days before.

Not as Gold. You qualify for upgrade 72-hours before the flight. If you are ATL, LGA, LAX or DTW based, you won’t get the upgrades.
