Delta Air Lines Refund: How to Request It

Delta’s result depends on the fare and why travel changed. A qualifying direct eTicket can use 24-hour risk-free cancellation; a refundable ticket can return to the original payment method; a nonrefundable ticket usually produces an eCredit unless Delta canceled or significantly changed the itinerary and you decline alternatives.
