Delta flights through netflights

Looking for some reassurance, I have seen delta flights through net flights at a price not to far off what I wanted to pay but never booked through netflights before.

Do you get access to your booking online for seat selection straight away?

Anything else I should be aware of if not booking direct with airline?

Thanks

Ive used them for Virgin flights. Booking was confirmed within 20 mins and could log onto the virgin app straight away with the booking number. I did a fair bit of internet stalking on them and as a third party booking agent they have a good reputation

You should be able to select seats as soon as the flight is ticketed. The biggest potential issue of booking with an agent (especially with a US carrier a long time in advance of travel) is that any changes to the ticket (by you or the airline) in advance (basically pretty much until online check in opens) have to go through the agent.

This does not apply to things like seat reservations and baggage, but does apply to schedule changes, cancellations, or any change you wanted to make to flights/dates etc. You therefore rely on the agent telling you about changes, but Netflights has a fairly good customer service reputation in this regard.

Booked delta flights through netflights a few years ago and can highly recommend them. Could see booking on delta site same day and when delta cancelled our connecting flight we were able to choose a different flight to suit us just as you would if booking through delta direct.

We've booked flights with them twice and found them very helpful.

I looked at booking with them for May but Skyscanner were £300 cheaper

Thanks everyone, I booked... well sorta.
It turned out that going to netflights through skyscanner was cheaper than netflights 1st and it was a Virgin flight (i know its the same as delta technically) logged onto Virgin and booked my seat
They only had 1 seat at the cheap fare so i booked it for me and will keep an eye out to book DH his seat when the price drops again. The next seat was £75 more but i figured it might be a friday late afternoon price hike for the weekend so fingers crossed.

I booked with netflight.com and I enjoyed the flight by Delta much better than Virgin as on the way home with Virgin was okay. I would fly with Delta in future.
