Understanding Delta's Flight Change Policy
Policies depend on the ticket you purchased. It can be confusing.
Main Cabin & Above
Tickets like Main Cabin, Comfort+, and First Class no longer have change fees for travel originating in North America. However, you are still responsible for the **fare difference**, which can be high. Our agents can find options to minimize this cost.
Basic Economy
Basic Economy tickets are the most restrictive. They are **not changeable and not refundable** after the 24-hour risk-free cancellation period. We can review your ticket for any rare exceptions, but in most cases, a new ticket must be purchased.
Award Tickets (SkyMiles)
Changing a flight booked with SkyMiles has its own set of rules. It can often be done with no fee, but finding available award seats on a new date is difficult. We specialize in handling complex award ticket changes. Call us to handle the process.
We Handle Changes for All Delta Routes
Our agents can manage any domestic flight change.
Specializing in International Delta Changes
Complex international changes are our specialty.
Expert Tips for Cheaper Delta Flight Changes
Changing a flight can be expensive. Our agents know how to find the best value.
Call for Unpublished Options
Delta provides agents with access to different booking systems and alternative flights that you can't find online. This is the #1 way to find a cheaper change.
Be Flexible with Dates & Times
Flying on a Tuesday or Wednesday is often cheaper than a Friday. Our agents can instantly check a full week of fares to find the lowest-cost day to fly.
Consider Nearby Airports
Sometimes, changing your flight to a nearby airport (e.g., Fort Lauderdale instead of Miami) can save you hundreds in fare differences. We can check all local options for you.
Understand Fare Buckets
Airlines have dozens of "fare buckets" for the same seat. We know how to navigate them to find the lowest possible fare class for your change, minimizing extra costs.

Delta Flight Change FAQ
How do I change my Delta flight ticket?
You can try to change it on Delta's website, but this can be complicated and show limited options. The easiest way is to call our agents. We can access all available flights, find the lowest fare difference, and handle the entire change for you in one call, saving you the hassle.
What is the Delta flight change fee?
Delta no longer charges change fees for Main Cabin and above tickets originating in North America. However, you must still pay the **fare difference** between your original flight and the new one. This is often the most expensive part. Basic Economy tickets cannot be changed at all.
Can I change my Delta Basic Economy ticket?
This is the most common question we get. Unfortunately, Delta's policy is very strict: Basic Economy (E) fares are **not changeable and not refundable** after the 24-hour risk-free window. Calling us allows us to confirm this policy for your ticket so you know your options, which usually involve purchasing a new ticket.
How do I cancel my Delta flight for a refund?
Whether you get a cash refund depends on your fare. Refundable tickets get cash back. Non-refundable tickets (like Main Cabin) will receive an **eCredit** for the value of the ticket, which you can use for future travel. Basic Economy tickets get no refund or credit if you cancel. Our agents can process this for you and ensure your eCredit is issued correctly.
What is a Delta eCredit?
An eCredit is a travel voucher from Delta that you get when you cancel a non-refundable flight. You can use its value to book a new Delta flight within a certain time frame (usually one year). We can help you use your eCredits, which can be tricky to apply online.
How can I upgrade my Delta flight?
You can upgrade with cash, SkyMiles, or Global/Regional Upgrade Certificates. The prices online can be very high. Our agents have access to different upgrade inventory and can often find more cost-effective ways to get you into Comfort+, Premium Select, or First Class. Call us to check upgrade prices for your flight.
Is it cheaper to upgrade my Delta flight in advance or at the gate?
It's a gamble. Gate upgrades can sometimes be cheaper, but you risk the cabin being full. Securing your upgrade in advance guarantees your spot. Our agents can check the advance upgrade cost for you and advise on the best strategy, giving you options you can't see on Delta.com.
What is Delta Comfort+? Is it worth it?
Comfort+ is Delta's premium economy seat. It offers up to 3 inches of extra legroom, dedicated overhead bin space, priority boarding, and free alcoholic beverages on most flights. It's a popular upgrade, and we can help you add it to your existing Main Cabin booking.
Can I upgrade from Delta Basic Economy to Comfort+?
No. Delta's rules state that Basic Economy fares are not eligible for any seat changes, including paid or complimentary upgrades to Comfort+ or First Class. You must purchase a Main Cabin ticket to be eligible for these upgrades.
How do I change a Delta flight booked with SkyMiles?
Changing an award ticket can be complex. You need to find a new flight that has award seat availability, which is often limited. Our agents are experts at searching for award inventory and can handle the process of changing your SkyMiles ticket or redepositing your miles for you.
What is a "fare difference"?
The "fare difference" is the change in price between the ticket you originally purchased and the new ticket you want. You must pay this difference even if there is no change fee. Our agents are experts at navigating Delta's fare "buckets" to find new flights with the lowest possible fare difference.
How do I change a flight within 24 hours of booking?
Delta (and all US airlines) must allow you to cancel a flight for a full cash refund within 24 hours of booking, as long as you booked at least 7 days before departure. This applies to ALL fares, including Basic Economy. If you booked with us, call us immediately to process this.
My flight was canceled by Delta. What are my options?
If Delta cancels your flight, you are entitled to a full cash refund, not just an eCredit. They may also offer to rebook you on their next available flight. Don't wait on hold. Call us. We can handle the airline for you, ensure your refund is processed, or find new flight options to get you to your destination.
Why should I call you instead of Delta?
Time and expertise. We offer no hold times and have expert knowledge of Delta's policies to resolve your issue efficiently. We have access to booking systems that can find creative routings and fare options you can't see online. We handle the hassle so you don't have to.
Are you affiliated with Delta Air Lines?
No. MyAirplaneFare.com is an independent travel agency. We are not Delta Air Lines. We are a paid concierge service that specializes in helping travelers manage their bookings, including Delta flights. This allows us to provide unbiased advice and focus solely on solving your problem.
