In
the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic Delta Airlines Reservations changed its previously strict (and
expensive) ticket cancellation and change policies and charges. In its
most current update there are no change charges on tickets for the following
class of fare for flights departing from North America:
Main
Cabin
Comfort
First
Class
Delta
Premium Select
Delta
One
At
present, Delta continues to offer a reduction in change fees for Delta tickets
that originate in other countries outside North America, except for Basic
Economy tickets.
If
you decide to alter your ticket for a new flight, you'll need to pay the
difference in cost, if higher. If you choose to cancel your flight, or if
the new fare is lower you'll receive a credit towards future
travel. Credits are usually valid for one year after the date of purchase.
However,
this leaves plenty of flexibility for those eager to travel however, as
Tripadvisor board member Joe C discovered, future flight credits aren't without
limits. "Booked a [flight] last year only to be told that my trip was
canceled and I'd receive a 'credit' for future travel," the user
wrote. "Tried to book a new reservation in 2021 only to be told the
[price] had quintupled! Gee, thanks Delta .... Bait and switch post-COVID...now
I know why they gave a travel credit instead of a refund!"
The
option of standing by for a more efficient flight will cost $75, unless you're
a Delta Gold Medallion elite or greater.
