1. Cancel Your Ticket First

• Go to “My Trips” on Delta’s website or app.

2. Refund Policy Basics

• Within 24 Hours of Booking:
  All tickets (including Basic Economy) can be canceled for a full refund, no penalty.

• Refundable Tickets:
  Cancel any time for a full cash refund to the original payment method.
