Delta's All Coach 767-400ER International Service?

How does Delta's international coach service on their Boeing 767-400ER (configured for all coach) compare with Delta's international coach service on the 767-300. Given a choice and a similar price should I choose one over the other?

What route are you flying and when? DL's converting their 764s to the international configuration with AVOD in each seat. That's why I wonder...

Delta has daily flights between Atlanta and Rome (Flt#76/77)and between Cincinnati and Rome (Flt# 32/33)that uses this equipment.

I see them on delta.com now. These aircrafts will not have personal video screen, so it'll be like the 763s. At least the planes are newer and you have bigger overhead bins (and nicer looking, contoured ceiling).

It'll be great to get one of the FC seats but only paying coach fare.

So you think that the seats on this plane will be larger than the seats in coach on a regular 767? Do you get any more leg room and/or recline on these seats?

If you can get rows 1-7 (you'll see the "F" seat missing on DL's seatmap - actual configuration is 2-2-2 not 2-3-1), you'll get a domestic first class seat. 39" pitch, 18.5" width, and individual screens.

But those are reserved for high DL Medallion members (not sure exact level required), and they go fast, as expected.

If you sit on Row 10 back, you get the same coach seat and no IFE, like on the 763s.

Any Medallion level can reserve a seat in the "first class" section (it will be a domestic first class seat with coach food and service) and I believe also full fare coach passengers. Otherwise, you can request at check-in if there are any available.
