While Hurricane Isais continues its path toward the eastern United States, Delta Air Lines issued a change fee waiver for airports in several major metropolitan markets such as Baltimore & Washington, D.C., New York, and Philadelphia.

Affected destinations are:

  • Allentown, PA (ABE)
  • Baltimore, MD (BWI)
  • Hartford, CT (BDL)
  • Newark, NJ (EWR)
  • Newburgh, NY (SWF)
  • New York, NY – Kennedy (JFK)
  • New York, NY – LaGuardia (LGA)

  • Philadelphia, PA (PHL)
  • Richmond, VA (RIC)
  • Washington D.C. – Dulles (IAD)
  • Washington D.C. – Reagan (DCA)
  • White Plains, NY (HPN)

The waiver is effective for Delta travel on August 4 and August 5.

Delta said tickets must be reissued on or before August 8, with rebooked travel commencing no later than August 8, as well.

Passengers may make a one-time change without being assessed a fee, though fare differences may apply.

      I think this might provide extra protection for people who now need to make multiple changes to their tickets — first because of COVID and now the hurricane.
