Wondering if someone on here can answer a question about the first class layout on the DL 757 configured to 16/144.
I notice that this a/c is used from PDX to HNL occasionally and to other destinations and curious if the first class seats are biz elite style or if they're the regular 38" pitch seats found on other DL 757s. Any info is appreciated...thanks

These are Business Elite seats with 60" pitch. They are the former NW Trans-Atlantic 757s. Note that to Hawaii they only have overhead video, and not AVOD like Delta's ex-TWA Business Elite 757s.

Does anyone know off hand what DOMESTIC routes BESIDES JFK-LAX/SFO tend to see these 757s? It can't be too many as so many are flying these routes and to Europe

Actually, 75A's aren't used on JFK-LAX/SFO
MSP-PDX, PDX-HNL, and occasionally MSP-MKE - unless they changed that. Otherwise, they're scheduled to be used on JFK-SEA also, I think.

I believe there is some merger confusion going on here. Prior to September 2009 PMDL referred to the Ex-TWA 757's as the 75A. From September 2009 forward, the Ex-TWA 757 are supposed to be referred as 75E but that hasn't caught on to everyone yet.

One other question then...if these were ex-NWA birds, are these the cloth flat/angled NWA seats or the DL cradle variety? Think I need to head to HNL out of PDX if it's the former.

The NW 75A seats are totally different than the A330 World Business Class seats. However specs are similar. The recline on them is 178 inches and pitch is 60.
