On that occasion I had the opportunity to fly for the first time with Delta Air Lines, but above all it was the opportunity to fly in two classic airplanes that are on their way out of the market., so it was historic for me and a moment to share it with you..
Quito – Atlanta
The first leg was in a Boeing 757-232 license plate N686DA, msn serial number 27589, with 24 years since his first flight on Delta, set to 3 lessons (20 in Executive, 41 in Economic Plus and 132 in Economics) with total capacity of 193 passengers powered by 2 PW2037 engines.
Every Boeing seat 757 It has an individual entertainment screen.I traveled by emergency exit, obviously the space between seats is excellent.The Boeing 757 of Delta have their years, but they were remodeled and repowered, which makes them look in excellent condition and modern.Generally in emergency exits there is no seat recline, but the extra space is appreciated, even more so if you don't have companions in line.
This is the menu for domestic flights and the prices.
Paid menu, but this flight included food service.

Atlanta – Toronto
After a stopover of just over 3 hours, The journey continued towards cold Toronto, but the adventure did not end, it was time to board for the first time (possibly the last) a McDonnell Douglas MD-88 serial number MSN 43417, with 27 years since your first flight with Delta, Capacity for 138 passengers in 2 classes and powered by 2 PW JT8D-219 engines.
Boarding for the first time on the MD-88, a pleasant impression that such a classic airplane is still in such good condition and equipped with WiFi technology. fully packed flight.Already during the day the enormous control tower, although each terminal has its mini tower.Starting filming from the Terminal 3.The spotting in Atlanta is incredible, But they are 100 Delta planes for each 20 de otras aerolíneas 😀Incredible flying in the MD-88 and emergency exit.The top panel maintains its classic look.¿Alguien la tiene?The photo of the card that could not be missing.Crossing the clouds with the famous sun halo, ¿sabes por qué se genera este efecto?The service in this section was an optional snack and drink. In my case almonds and water, you always have to stay hydrated.Landing in cold and snowy Toronto.already on land, un poco de spotting 😉Already in Toronto I was able to enter the cockpit, simply, beautiful analog cabin.
Usually, a pleasant experience flying with Delta to Toronto, the service is excellent and it reminded me past times of aviation where there was greater glamor when flying with a full service, abundant, cordial and quality.
Crew members who speak English and Spanish, good food and drinks, more technology made the flight of more than 12 very manageable hours.
