I wanted to put this to the test and searched Portland to Seattle and found it available for $113 as advertised. The website only shows a few dozen sample city pairs but there are many others as well, so check to see if your desired cities are included.

Bottom Line

First class may be cheaper than you think especially with Delta aggressively trying to fill up their first class cabins with paid passengers rather complimentary Medallion upgrades, so it never hurts to price out first vs. coach and see how much of a difference there really is.
