Delta Airlines Flight Change Policy
Delta Air Lines offers flexible flight change policies for its premium cabins, including Delta One (international business class) and Delta First (domestic first class). Here's an overview of the key policies:
Flight Change Policy for Delta One and Delta First
- No Change Fees: For tickets purchased in Delta One or Delta First, there are no change fees for flights originating in the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands. This applies to both domestic and international itineraries.
- Fare Differences Apply: If your new flight costs more than your original, you'll need to pay the difference in fare. If the new flight costs less, the remaining value may be issued as a Delta eCredit.
- Same-Day Changes: Same-day confirmed changes are available for a $75 fee, subject to availability. However, this fee is waived for Diamond, Platinum, and Gold Medallion members.
