Delta Air Lines announced today it's blocking the sales and assignments of certain aisle and window seats. They're also capping available first class seating capacity to 50%; Delta Premium Select, Comfort+, and Main Cabin are knocked down to 60%.

The change affects aircraft with seating configurations of:

t
• 1×2 (i.e. first class on an ERJ-175)
t
• 2×2 (i.e. Main Cabin and Comfort+ on, well, any CRJ)
t
• 2×3 (i.e. Main Cabin and Comfort+ on a 717)

Main line and Delta Connection fleet are affected.

This policy is effective through June 30. Delta says this "is the most recent addition to a number of health and safety measures we've taken to promote a safe flying experience for customers and employees."
