Boarding on time with a strict priorities respect. To be mentionned, with DL, if one of the pax is Elite Plus, the whole group up to 6 people, get the SKY mention on their boarding pass, as long as they are all in the same PNR.

On US Domestic flights, EC is free of charge for Elite Plus and people in the same PNR. So, we'll all fly EC on that leg. Very good legroom:

Conclusion

The flight was lovely and the crew attentive and friendly. The DL product is solid and well above what UA, US or AA can offer.

The mark for the catering may seem high, but DL offers two drinks, and a snack. No other legacy carrier offers that in the US.

That leg will mark the beginning of 10 wonderful days across Idaho and then Wyoming and Yellowstone. Pictures in the next FR, stay tuned :)
