Delta Air Lines and other airlines have dropped any charges for changing flights due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Coronavirus Pandemic: Airline Change Fees

The airlines are trying to cope with travel plans that have been in disarray as the nation and much of the world adjusts to the new normal due to COVID-19.

Here are the change fee policies for each airline:

Delta Air Lines

Delta is broadly waiving change fees for travel affected by COVID-19/coronavirus. That means all travel departing in March or April 2020, as well as all tickets purchased in March 2020. See Delta’s change fee policy here.

American Airlines

American Airlines is letting you cancel your flight online now. They want you to call when you’re ready to rebook. See American Airline’s change fee policy here.

If you:

Bought your ticket before March 1, 2020, for travel through April 30, 2020, you can rebook without change fees.
Booked your trip March 1 – March 31, 2020, for travel through January 30, 2021, you can also change your reservation at a later date without change fees.

United Airlines

United says it will continue to fly its regular schedule from Europe to the U.S. through March 20, except Houston-London and Denver-London, which they’re suspending after March 16.

From March 20 through the end of April, United expects to fly three daily flights to London and have daily service to Amsterdam, Brussels, Dublin, Paris and Zurich

Southwest Airlines

As you may know, Southwest already has a no-fee policy in place for all its fares.

If you would like to rebook, you may change your travel up to 60 days from your original flight date by visiting Southwest.com/rebook.
