Welcome back to the channel today I wanted to show you what you could expect from Delta
Airlines Economy Class on their A350-900 on flight DL147. This is a former LATAM A350. This is one
of the four that Delta acquired from LATAM as they were going through chapter 11 bankruptcy.
I was upgraded actually to seat 22A which is in Comfort Plus. Here's a look at the seats.
You have a 3-3-3 configuration in Economy. It's got kind of a mix of Delta and LATAM.
You do get a pillow and blanket. I say its a mix because you do have some Delta stitching
on the seats but this is definitely all LATAM in the seat. This cup holder style and
definitely that foot rest is LATAM. You do have power and it did work thankfully.
Unlike LATAM you will have Wi-Fi on this flight which I'll show you the options a little later.
You have a nice view out of the window; of the Sky Team livery there. Here is the in flight
entertainment system and the tray table. This twofold tray table which is a unfortunately a
staple of LATAM; so they haven't redone the seats. I don't know if they will
or not. Their were no individual air vents on this aircraft. The leg room was decent. Here's a
look at that footstool which I hate these things in Premium Economy; but to see them in Economy
is not as bad. Mainly not as obtrusive because you don't have a big box down there
messing with your leg room. They did give you a travel kit which was nice. That was a little
different. I guess you could kind of call it an amenity kit of sorts. In it contained an eye mask,
as well as a cleansing towelette, toothpaste, a toothbrush, and some earplugs. I will leave you
with the takeoff and I'll be back to talk about more of the flight here in a moment.
Okay welcome back and let's look at the bathroom in the A350-900 on the Ex. LATAM A350.
They really haven't changed anything from LATAM. Their are no windows so its just a
standard bathroom essentially. You get a couple of mirrors so that's nice.
As far as the meal service went it was started with a bottle of water after takeoff. You also
have some kind of unfold yourself place mat if we will. The food I didn't find that good.
A choice of chicken or pasta was offered and I chose chicken. It came with vegetables, couscous
and a Lemon Blondie dessert. The Lemon Blondie dessert was great but the food was not good. I
didn't enjoy the meal at all so I didn't eat much of it. It was really flavorless in my opinion. The
breakfast service you had fruit with an egg and cheese muffin; essentially an Egg McMuffin. The
egg and cheese McMuffin wasn't bad but the fruit was good. Again overall the food wasn't good. The
crew was really good though. I don't want to take anything away from the crew being friendly on the
flight; but it was a rough experience food wise for me on my first long haul flight with Delta in
Economy. Here's the Wi-Fi options. You have the complimentary messaging which includes WhatsApp,
iMessage, or Facebook Messenger. Their are the options you can choose from. One hour, three hours
to browse through different packages or the full flight flight. The flight was about 8 hours and
20 minutes or so. So you could find it worth it but on a red eye flight most people want to
sleep. So those are your options as far the Wi-Fi goes. The in-flight entertainment was
pretty good. It is pretty much the standard Delta in-flight entertainment. You were able to get
headphones that were passed out if you needed them to plug into the IFE. I will let you look through
a little bit of the in-flight entertainment and I'll be back with my final thoughts.
Okay welcome back so overall my thoughts on this flight were that the food was a
big minus. I didn't enjoy the food at all. I thought it was nice to get upgraded from
regular Economy to Comfort Plus. The flight was jam-packed so outside of the extra leg room
unfortunately I didn't have a row to myself to really spread out. It still is not a bad ride on
the A350 as I've experienced in the past. Their are no individual air vents on this aircraft so
keep that in mind. You do have Wi-Fi available that works with the free messaging option.
Chicken or pasta were the choices; that may vary over time but probably not much in Economy.
As far as breakfast their was no choice; just the fruit with the egg and cheese McMuffin.
Overall the experience as a whole wasn't bad. I used some Delta Skymiles to get
from Atlanta to Santiago de Chile on flight DL147, and that was my experience doing it.
As always I appreciate you watching. I would love to hear your comments below if you've
taken this flight or been on one of these former LATAM A350's now flying with Delta.
