Delta Offering Free Flight Changes Over 4th of July Weekend
Delta and other major airlines have had to cut back on their normal flight schedules due to worker shortages and weather cancellations, yet airports are expected to be crowded with holiday travelers this weekend. In fact, the Fourth of July weekend is expected to be the busiest for air travel since before the start of the pandemic.
Delta officials say they’re expecting “operational challenges” this weekend and they’re offering passengers free flight changes from July 1-4. The offer applies to all ticket classes.
“This unique waiver is being issued to give Delta customers greater flexibility to plan around busy travel times, weather forecasts and other variables without worrying about a potential cost to do so,” according to the carrier.
