Delta Air Lines has officially announced their upcoming premium economy class seating for long flights. It has been named "Delta Premium" which will be scheduled on late 2017. Delta Premium is an another aircraft that will be introduced next year together with Airbus A350s and another one in 2018 which is Boeing 777, based on the report by Fox News.

Delta Premium will have its additional space and more facilities which include 19-inch wide seats, 38 inches of area for legroom, 13.3 inch for in-flight screens and power ports for every seat and many more according to Delta's siteAs for other services, travelers are entitled to have a free drink, blankets, comfort kits and noise canceling headphones. The Delta Premium ticket holders will also have a faster check-in for customers, will be able to sidestep long queue of security line checking, will board flights earlier and have swift baggage return, as further explained by Fox News.

In a statement of Delta's Senior Vice President Tim Mapes he said that, "Delta Premium is Delta's latest example of paying careful attention to what customers tell us they want and responding with unique products designed to meet their individual needs." The USA Today also reported that Delta is open for a 360-view of its new Delta Premium cabin that will showcase the 2-4-2 seating arrangement.

Based on the said report, Delta will be the second U.S carrier to have a true international premium economy cabin with this development. It has been noted that the first American premium-economy planes have not yet started to sell those seats as a distinct class of service, but is expected to rollout in the spring,

Delta's current fleets are Boeing 767, Boeing 747 and the Airbus A330. These are wide body aircrafts that fly long-haul international routes. Meanwhile, shorter international routes to Europe and South America are for narrow-bodied planes like the Delta's Boeing 757. Regular passengers of Delta most probably will keep an eye if the company will also add Delta Premium to any of those aircrafts, as described by USA Today.
