Why is my seat not assigned Delta?

Why is my seat unassigned?

If you were not assigned a seat, this likely means you booked a Basic Economy fare, which do not permit assigned seats prior to airport arrival. If you did not book a Basic Economy ticket, it could mean that the airline is not permitting pre-assigned seating at this time or they may only assign seating at Check In.

Do I get my seats when I check-in online?

Can Delta bump you from a flight?

If a flight may be oversold, Delta will ask people as they check in on-line if they want to take a bump. This creates a list of people the gate agent can see at their podium. Some gate agents don't use that list at all, but some do, so you want to be on that list.
