Welcome to Delta Air Lines! We’re thrilled you’re considering flying with us. To ensure a smooth and enjoyable journey, we’ve outlined some key details regarding fares, rules, and program benefits.
Fares and Availability
Keep in mind that fares displayed are based on real-time pricing and subject to change at any time. It’s always a good idea to book your tickets as soon as possible to secure the best rates.
SkyMiles: Your Gateway to Rewards
Are you a SkyMiles member? If so, you can earn miles on most flights. Just remember that Basic Economy fares don’t qualify for SkyMiles accrual or Medallion Status. To learn more about SkyMiles, including program rules, mile accrual, redemption, and travel benefits, please visit our Membership Guide & Program Rules page.
Basic Economy: Know Before You Go
We offer Basic Economy fares for those looking for budget-friendly travel options. However, there are some important considerations. Basic Economy tickets are non-refundable and non-changeable. You won’t have a seat assignment until check-in, and upgrades are not permitted. For a complete rundown of Basic Economy restrictions, check out our Basic Economy rules.
Seat Configuration and Amenities
The layout and amenities on board can vary depending on the aircraft type and size. To explore our seat products and onboard experience, simply visit our Onboard Experience page.
Baggage Charges
Let’s talk luggage. Checked bag fees depend on your destination and whether you’re flying Basic Economy or a higher fare class. For example, within the United States, the first checked bag is $35 USD, and the second bag is $45 USD. For international destinations, fees can vary. We recommend reviewing our Excess Baggage page for a comprehensive breakdown of baggage fees for all destinations.

Changes, Cancellations, and Refunds
