Although doesnt look to be on routes as part of the JV if it's just 777s and 350s that is getting it.

Delta Premium, the latest cabin experience from Delta Air Lines, will debut on select international flights in late 2017.

Delta Premium will feature:

• More space with up to 38 inches of pitch, up to 19 inches of width and up to seven inches of recline. Delta Premium seats will also offer adjustable leg rests and head rests;
• Westin Heavenly® In-Flight Blanket with pillow and a TUMI amenity kit featuring Malin+Goetz Travel Essentials, allowing customers to settle in and arrive well-rested;
• Pre-departure beverage service followed by fresh, seasonal menu selections presented with Alessi serviceware designed exclusively for Delta;
• A 13.3-inch, high resolution in-flight entertainment screen that is among the largest in its class, allowing customers to stay entertained with Delta Studio’s industry-leading library of complimentary movies, shows and games, and noise-cancelling headphones;
• In-seat power ports for large and small devices and convenient storage to keep them within reach;
• Sky Priority service, which includes faster check-in, accelerated security, priority boarding and expedited baggage service.

To be included in their A350 fleet and added to the 777s by 2018.

Sounds interesting. Little disappointed at the "Up to 19" width" as this is 2" shorter than VS, though on-par with PE expectations I suppose. Hoping that Delta deploy this on some of their LHR routes as I'd be very interested in giving this a try, and would certainly encourage me to fly them TATL more often.
