what are the delta comfort seats

Delta’s Economy Comfort has 3-4 more inches of seat pitch (distance from back of seat to front of seat in front of you – or simply how much leg room you have) than their regular coach seats. In addition, the seats are supposed to have up to 50% more recline.

Delta Economy Comfort Review

Delta Economy Comfort Review Patrick September 14, 2012 Uncategorized 1 Comment I have flown a few flights in Delta’s Economy Comfort the last few weeks so I will review this new product from Delta rather than just one flight. I flew Economy Comfort from SAN – JFK, OKC – ATL, and ATL – SAN. All three flights were on different aircraft (737-800, 757, and MD88) which gives a good reference to any difference in their seats or service (click here see Economy Comfort review of A319, A320, CRJ 700 & CRJ 900 and E175 plus updates on Delta’s Economy Comfort and new Delta Comfort + )

Unlike United’s Economy Plus which takes up the first several rows of coach, Delta’s Economy Comfort is only in the first 3 to 5 rows on all their aircraft (including International wide-bodies). The service and seats are the same as the rest of economy. No free meals or drinks or anything else. On international flights there is complimentary spirits and specialty cocktails in Economy Comfort (beer and wine are free in all Int’l Economy). Also as of May 2nd, on JFK – LAX & SFO flights, there is a complimentary snack served and free beer, wine & spirits). Economy Comfort is free on domestic flights for Diamond, Platinum, and Gold members (50% off for Silver or free at check-in) and full fare coach passengers. All other passengers need to pay a fee (cost depends on route) On International flights it is only free for Diamond & Platinum members of Delta’s Sky Miles program. There is priority boarding (zone 1) when sitting in Economy Comfort, but as most passengers are Elite members that is not a big bonus. From San Diego to JFK we flew on a 737-800 and I had the bulkhead aisle (10C). Economy Comfort is the first three rows of Economy, Rows 10 thru 12. Of the three flights this was by far the most uncomfortable. Partly because of the flight time and because this aircraft did not have the personalized video screens at each seat that most of Delta’s 737-800 have (and they promoted this flight having, my return flight also did not have it). There was only a small overhead screen that was hard to see the picture clearly (plus it was a movie I did not want to watch). But what made this flight uncomfortable was that the bulkhead seats armrests do not raise. I did have an aisle seat which provided even more leg room then the other Economy Comfort seats, but because the armrests do not raise their is less personal space. Plus there is no seat-back in front of you so there is only a very small seat pocket for the in-flight magazines (and little room for your belongings). While I need to loose a few pounds I am not that big and when the armrest is secured it lessens the seat width by an inch or two. Making to feel you are being squeezed into the seat and leaving no room for my headphones or anything you would want with you while seated. I did purchase the Yogurt & Granola Parfait with Fruit. It was a little expensive at $4.99 (considering Alaska serves a hot breakfast for $6) but was tasty and filled me up enough that I was not hungry even though that was the only thing I had eaten all morning. The next flight from OKC to ATL was on a MD-88. I was seated in 12C, an aisle on the 3 side (configuration of MD-88 or MD-90 is 3×2). This was the most comfortable flight because the seat next to me was empty. The seat pitch in Economy Comfort is almost the same as first class so with the seat next to me empty I was able to put my belongings in that seat and felt as comfortable or even more so than if I was in First. Plus even though this was a 2 hour flight there was no service in First and economy served the typical snacks for sale or choice of pretzels, Peanuts, or cookies. So the only thing I felt I missed out on was a few Twix bars (which I do miss!!). The third flight was on a 757 from ATL -SAN. This 757 has 5 rows of Economy Comfort on one side and 4 on the other. Other 757’s have 3 on the left side and 4 on the right. The seat numbers are not consistent either. I was in 21 C which can be a bulkhead on some 757’s, but was not on this flight. I was in the 2nd row of Economy Comfort. Luckily the person sitting next to me was not that big so I felt I had some room. This flight was full but did have personal video screens. So I was happy to finally be on a plane that had it. Of course, it didn’t work. The live TV was not working and I did not want to pay for a movie. They do have some free programing and I watched what is normally shown on flights with overhead entertainment. The seat was the same as the prior two flights. Other than when I tried to sleep I reclined the seat to it’s fullest and I could not feel any difference than a regular economy seat. They say Economy Comfort has up to 50% more recline, but I guess 50% of nothing is still nothing. I did buy (I used one of my Elite coupons, otherwise cost $6.50) a Travel Treats Snack Box which I guess is better than just getting pretzels or peanuts. They also offer another snack box or a Turkey and Provolone Sandwich for sale. There was enough in there to relieve my hunger. On all three flights I got up to use the restrooms and as I walked by the exit row I tried to see if they provided more leg room than Economy Comfort (I didn’t think it was appropriate to get down and use a tape measure so I just eye-balled it). Most of the exit row seats had arm rests that could be raised and did seem to have more leg room. I am not sure why they do not include these exit row seats in their Economy Comfort. Of course only the last exit row seats recline. The first exit row seats do not recline. I discovered two things from these trips. One it is getting much harder to get upgraded on Delta. I am a Million Miler Gold and was # 20 on the upgrade list on a few of the flights. The second is that Economy Comfort is certainly a more comfortable way to fly than regular Economy, however, I can not say that it is that much better. In fact, I will choose the second exit row seat in the future over an Economy Comfort seat. Outside of Economy Comfort being in the front of the cabin the exit row offers even more leg room. Now, this is my opinion on domestic flights. My guess is that with the free spirits on the International flights (and maybe that is where the recline is more noticeable) one would feel that they are getting a little more than just regular Coach Class. That said, please do not think that either Delta Economy Comfort or United’s Economy Plus compares to Air France, British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, or other international carriers Premium Economy product. They do not. They simply have a few more inches of leg room and in the case of Delta has some free alcohol on Int’l flights. Otherwise same seat and same service as regular economy. As an update to this review. Delta announced today (May 2, 2013) that on flights between JFK and SFO & LAX that Economy Comfort passengers will receive free beer, wine, and spirits, a free premium snack, and a complimentary newspaper. These transcontinental flights are usually flown on 757’s and occasionally 767’s, and 737’s. With these new upgrades to Economy Comfort on these two routes I probably would not choose the exit row over Economy Comfort. However, on all other routes I think the exit rows seats have more space and therefore more comfortable. In addition, there is a difference between Economy Comfort and preferred seating with Delta. Outside the exit row (which is considered preferred seating) the only advantage of preferred seats is they are closer to the front of the plane. They have the same seat pitch and width as the rest of economy. As a further update, I flew from SAN to JFK yesterday (May 6th) on a 737-800 and based on my own advice sat in the exit row and not Economy Comfort. There are two exit rows (17 & 18) on this aircraft and I sat in the second row aisle (18D). Unlike the Airbuses, the armrests on the these exit row seats are immovable (do not raise). Luckily the seat next to me was free so I had space to put some personal items there, otherwise I would have felt cramped. There is, however, plenty of leg room (more than the rest of Economy Comfort – including the bulkhead). This plane, like the one I reviewed earlier did not have personal entertainment or live TV. Just overhead entertainment. The screen was far from row 18 so it was hard to watch. My seat did not recline, but the window seat did (I think mine was just broken). I did not see anyone in row 17 recline their seats, so they may not recline (typical of first exit row). Delta has changed their breakfast yogurt. It is still $4.99, but now instead of a large yogurt it is a bag with Blueberry Greek yogurt, cranberry/almond breakfast bar, and a banana. None of these were particularly good (banana was green). I liked their old yogurt. This aircraft had Wifi and blankets (which are located in the overheads at the exit row). The flight time was just under 5 hours and we landed a few minutes early. Here is other update, and it is a bit of a bombshell, and honestly one change I can not see sticking, as I believe there will be a revolt with their Elite members. Delta has introduced three levels of Economy. Starting in February or March of 2015 it appears Delta will change the name of Economy Comfort to “Delta Comfort +”. I am not sure if they will add any seats to the current layout of Economy Comfort, but they have increased the service and overhead space with Delta Comfort Plus. Premium snacks (I would think similar snack on LAX/SEA/SFO to JFK flights) will be served on longer flights as well as complimentary beer, wine and spirits on all flights. So this is a very positive change. What isn’t so positive is Delta will also introduce two other levels of Economy; “Main Cabin” and “Basic Economy”. Both are the same seats (non Delta Comfort +) and will receive the same service – Free soft drinks & snack as well as access to Delta’s IFE for a fee, whether it is through Delta Studio or seat-back AVOD. The only difference is with Basic Economy fares (lowest fare) you will not be able to select your seat in advance. They will be issued at check-in (online or at the airport). In addition, Medallion members will only have limited benefits when purchasing a Basic Economy ticket. They will still get priority check-in, free baggage, and priority boarding. However, they will not be eligible to upgrade to First Class nor Delta Economy +. Nor will they be able to select their seat in advance. This applies to all levels. Silver to Diamond. This is a big risk for Delta. I already read where Gold Medallion members no longer received Economy Comfort seats at time of booking and had to wait until 72 hours before departure. This was reason enough to think about leaving Delta, but not to be eligible at all, I don’t see this sitting to well with their core customers. Now, from what I read, these Basic fares will not be in all markets and then the current rules will still apply. Also, if you purchase a Main Cabin fare then you are eligible for the full Medallion benefits. All this falls in line with Delta trying to get people to pay more money for a seat. If it is a few more dollars for Main Cabin over Basic Economy then it may work. If not, I can not see a Diamond Medallion member happy to be in the last row of Economy. A few additional updates (Feb 2017). It seems that the “Basic Economy” will stick as United and American will also introduce the same Basic Economy fares that will have the same restrictions. But it appears these fares are only on a few routes where they compete with Spirit, Sun Country, or any airline that has the same low-fare model. Also Delta now publishes Comfort + fares. So you don’t need to pay extra for Comfort+ seat. You just purchase it for a price that is higher than the “Main Cabin” fare (I have seen anywhere from $20 more to $100 more depending on route and distance). I could not find these fares on any of Delta’s international flights. Delta has also increased the food offerings for Comfort+. Now most flights will receive an upgraded snack and food option (on longer flights a wrap and frozen yogurt bar. On shorter flights basket service that would be similar to the First Class basket served on non meal flights). Lastly, and a very positive change, Comfort plus, like First Class, used to receive free in-flight entertainment. Now it is free throughout the entire plane. All classes, regardless of fare. Whether it is through seatback IFE or on your personal device through gogo inflight and Delta Studio.

what does nasa say about why we have moon phases

It is all a result of the Moon's orbit around the Earth, and the Earth's orbit around the Sun. And exactly when you see the Moon in the shape of a 'U' (lit on the bottom) rather than a backward 'C' (lit on the side) depends on what latitude you are at. But the explanation is the same regardless of when you see it from your location. We see the Moon in the night sky because it is reflecting light from the Sun. The Moon does not generate any light of its own. So the lit part of the Moon always points toward the Sun.

StarChild Question of the Month for March 2002

"Star Child Question of the Month for March 2002Question: Why is the crescent Moon sometimes lit on the bottom? Answer: A careful observer will certainly notice that over the period of months, the crescent of the Moon does indeed seem to go from being lit on the ""bottom"" of the Moon to being lit on the side of the Moon. So what is happening to make the Moon look different?

Now as you can see in the diagram, as the Earth travels aroound the Sun, the tilt of the Earth on its axis sometimes points the northern hemisphere toward the Sun and sometimes points the southern hemisphere toward the Sun. This is why we have seasons here on Earth. But this also changes the apparent path of the Moon across the night sky when you are on the Earth looking out at it. Sometimes it travels at an angle toward the horizon and sometimes it travels straight down toward the horizon. When the crescent Moon travels straight down toward the horizon, you will get the 'U' shaped Moon. Many describe this as when the 'horns' of the Moon point upward. This can happen once or twice a year, again depending on the latitude of your location. This diagram shows typical paths for the Moon during the year (and the resulting look of the waxing crescent Moon) for a specific latutude in the northern hemisphere. Notice that during winter, the Moon sets north of west and follows a path almost straight down to the horizon. During the summer, the Moon sets south of west and follows a slanted path down to the horizon. Folklore Can Be Confusing!This change in the appearance of the Moon has been observed for a very long time. And many conflicting definitions have been given to these lunar appearances. Some ancient skywatchers spoke of the crescent Moon when the bottom seems to be lit as the ""wet moon"". They thought it looked like a bowl which could fill up with the rain and snow of the winter season. In Hawaiian astrology, Kaelo the Water Bearer rules from January 20 - February 18. According to the Hawaiian Calendar, Kaelo is the ""Dripping Wet Moon"" month. However, many other cultures have defined the Moon when lit on the bottom as the ""dry moon"" since in that configuration, the Moon is ""holding in the water"". As winter passes into spring and summer, the crescent shape slowly shifts toward the south and begins to ""stand on its end"". To some ancients, this represented the Moon assuming a pouring position in which it will lose its water and result in the great summer rains. The result was the creation of a ""dry moon"", one which held no water because it all poured out. On the other hand, other cultures said that such a moon is a wet moon because it allowed the water to pour out!Return to the Star Child Main Page Go to Imagine the Universe!

how much jake paul merch

The gear was typical merch fare, an aesthetic that's well established: long-sleeve graphic T-shirts, hoodies, distressed denim jackets with prices ranged from $30 to $100 for a skate deck. Jake Paul might be the future, but his taste looks a lot like the present.

Jake Paul Wants to Sell You...Something

"Style Jake Paul Wants to Sell You... Something By Max Berlinger December 11, 2017At the Internet celebrity's New York pop-up shop, merch wasn't the only thing up for sale. Forget the million dollar smile. Hell, forget the ten million dollar smile. Jake Paul has perfected the 10 million follower smile. He uses that smile—goofy, slightly menacing—like a weapon, deploying it strategically to send his army of fans, most of whom are between 13 and 18 years old, into an alarming frenzy. This weekend, he sent throngs of pre-teen girls and boys into paroxysms of joy at a pop-up shop on the far west side of Manhattan. Despite the first snow of the season, a line snaked around the block. Grown-ups were outnumbered by children three-to-one. A member of the security detail, inside, said that people had started lining up at 3am for a chance to see Paul in the flesh. It was an impossibly big moment—because, for most of his fans, Jake Paul exists solely on the internet. Paul rose to fame on the now-defunct six-second video social media platform Vine before starting his You Tube channel, where he produces daily videos, a mix of pranks, music videos, and personal observations. He currently has 12.3 million subscribers, and has said that he averages 7 million views per video. (For perspective, this summer's most-watched episode of Game of Thrones racked up 16 million viewers.) Paul had a short stint on the Disney television show Bizaardvark, but for the new breed of online famesters, crossing over to traditional forms of entertainment isn’t the end goal. As he told us earlier this year: “Even Disney—off the record, but on the record—knows that I have the power. They love me because of that. I don’t act like it. I’m not walking around all cocky, but the tables have turned.”For a while, anyone over the age of, say, 25 could be forgiven for not knowing who Jake Paul was. But he has spent the last few months parlaying that notoriety into something approaching real-world fame. And as social media influencers break into the mainstream, Jake Paul seems less like an aberration and more like a vision from the future, coming back to warn us of what lies ahead. Spoiler alert: it involves a lot of merch. On Saturday, Paul, 20, was sequestered above his pop-up shop, which featured “Instagrammable” moments: little photo-taking areas that featured neon lights, silvery confetti, and overblown images with Jake Paul inside jokes, like yellow-tinted aviator sunglasses (known to his fans as “yellars”). A large balcony wrapped around Paul's holding room, and from time to time he'd do a lap up there. The kids below would gather and scream, holding their phones up. The songs he’s written and produced for his You Tube page—once made in jest, but now occasionally appearing on the very real Billboard 100 —were piped in. The crowd sang every word to Paul, who stood at the balcony singing it back to them. He'd sometimes descend like a god from Mount Olympus in high-top sneakers. But those interactions were limited because, though small, the kids' collective enthusiasm could get the best of them and Paul could create a stampede that even 6-foot bodyguards had trouble containing. The pop-up served a few purposes. First and foremost, it was a marketing opportunity—for Paul, but also for producers of the third-party products like fidget spinner speakers on display in shiny cases. And, despite Generation Z’s dependence on digital, it was part of a growing trend for experiential moments, things that could be captured and tagged and broadcast on social media. This was the Museum of Ice Cream, but for rude You Tube tweens. But mostly, it was a sort of throwback: to the classic Hollywood of the meet-and-greet. It was a shrine to Paul and, perhaps, a testing ground to see just how far his empire could unfurl itself. Jake Paul stores? Why not?“They were foaming at the mouth, they were jumping on the cars yesterday,” said Nick Schefman, who was working at the event, representing the camera company ION360, which wisely wanted to be seen in-tandem with a man who makes his living filming himself. “I haven’t seen a level of intensity like this since … Justin Bieber.” (No one compares the maddening crowds to those of Elvis or The Beatles anymore). Backstage, Paul was in coach-meets-entrepreneur mode. ""I think people are attracted to [what I do] because I appeal to the mass of America,” he explained. “These kids, like, don't have much in their lives and aren't coming from rich families. Nowadays, high school and middle school, more than ever, there's a lot of pressure, there's bullying and social media. And this”—watching him and a small cadre of other social media influencers live lavish lifestyles on Instagram and You Tube—”gives them another outlet to live vicariously through another group of friends having fun and being positive. ""https://twitter.com/ION360/status/939244794911641600TRENDING THIS VERY SECONDculture Cardi B on Her Unstoppable Rise, Repping Gang Life, and the Peril of Butt Injectionsculture Patagonia vs. Donald Trump Despite his reputation as a troublemaker—he's had a very public, very antagonistic relationship with his Los Angeles neighbors—Paul sees himself as a positive influence. ""I'm a mentor to them, I try to teach them how to set goals for themselves, telling them how to deal with haters, reminding them to smile every day,"" he said. This might sound odd to older observers, who see him as the very avatar of millennial malaise—the manifestation of white male privilege with a dash of Jackass. But Jake Paul is looking to move from pranks to more message-driven forms of entertainment. Oprah, basically, but with more pranks. Downstairs, chants of ""We Want Jake"" were crescendoing. The pop-up shop experience was well-organized, with groups of 100 or so being ushered in for a limited time, allowed to interact with the Instagrammable moments, and hopefully allowed a moment to pose with Paul for a selfie or speak with him. Then everyone was herded towards the merch, which was hung reverentially in a center vestibule as if at Barneys, and then toward the cash registers, where the line seemed to flow, not ebb.

None of which mattered to his fans. ""I think he's really funny, and just amazing,"" said Bianca Baron, an 8-year-old in braids and lipstick from White Stone, Queens, who was walking away with ""a lot of shirts."" ""My whole school knows who he is, they'll be jealous I came. ""Christopher Schernov, 10, discovered Paul on Vine and followed him to You Tube. ""He has such a great life, it's so fun. I watch him every day. Every time he posts, I get the notification."" Schernov and his mother came in from Staten Island for the pop-up. ""Even if what he's doing doesn't seem interesting, I'll watch it and it gets interesting."" When asked to place Paul in galaxy of traditional celebrities, Schernov was quick to dismiss the likes of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. ""He's nicer to his fans, he has a lot of good advice. He has a better personality. He lets his fans touch him or gives us high-fives. Kanye West has his hood up. ""Schernov was a clear Jake Paul superfan—a Jake Pauler —and was visibly excited while talking about him. But when Paul made a lap around the space, Schernov was excited, but didn't move toward him like the rest of the crowd. I asked him why. He shrugged. ""I already have a selfie with him,"" he said.
