You’ll still enjoy the same great onboard products and service – we’re simply giving them new names that better reflect the Delta brand.

Product Names:

• Main Cabin → Delta Main
• Delta Comfort+ → Delta Comfort
• First Class → Delta First
• Delta Premium Select and Delta One® remain unchanged

Travel Experience: These new fare options give you more choice in how you travel. Your seat, service and everything you enjoy about flying Delta stays exactly the same.

Basic offers lower fares with limited flexibility. Your seat is assigned after check-in, and perks like free cancellation and Same-Day Standby do not apply.

You can get the benefits you’ve become accustomed to when you book Classic — seat selection, no-fee cancellation and Same-Day Standby.

Extra gets you more than Classic or our previous Refundable ticket option. With Extra, you can enjoy full refundability if you decide to cancel, earlier boarding, free Same-Day Confirmed options and more miles earned. 

Each experience (Basic, Classic and Extra) offers different benefits when it comes to upgrade eligibility and priority:

• Extra provides enhanced upgrade priority over Classic and Refundable tickets
• Classic maintains standard eligibility for upgrades
• Basic is not eligible for upgrades

We determine your position on the upgrade list using these factors in order:

1. Medallion Status (Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver)
2. Product purchased (Delta One, Delta First, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort, Delta Main)
3. Million Miler status
4. Experience type (Extra, then Classic and Refundable)
5. Additional tie-breakers (Delta SkyMiles Reserve American Express Card, Corporate travelers, MQDs, Date and time of request)

Ex. A Diamond Medallion with the Classic experience will still be prioritized over any Platinum, Gold or Silver Medallions, even if those members purchased the Extra experience. A Diamond Medallion with Extra will be prioritized over Diamonds who purchased Classic. 

Medallion Members and qualifying Delta SkyMiles American Express Card Members are eligible for complimentary upgrades to Delta First and Delta Comfort, as well as to domestic Delta Premium Select  and domestic Delta One on flights within the U.S. 50, subject to availability.^{†, Go to footer note}

No; there will be no changes to in-flight service and offerings under the new experience. You will continue to receive the same warm, elevated service, regardless of your Travel Experience.

You can upgrade your onboard seat product but cannot change your Travel Experience (fare). For example, when you purchase Delta Main Classic, you can change to any other Classic product (ex. Delta Comfort Classic) subject to the difference in fare, however you cannot downgrade your experience to Delta Main Basic (Basic Economy) or upgrade to Delta Main Extra.

No, when you purchase an Award Ticket using your miles, the Extra experience is not available; however, the Classic experience is available for purchase using miles.

When you use your miles for Award Travel, you’ll enjoy free mileage redeposits when you cancel your Award Ticket (excluding Basic experience Award Tickets) for travel originating in the United States and Canada to anywhere in the world, as well as mileage upgrade awards.

No, these changes will have no impact on your Delta SkyMiles American Express Card benefits. While the names of our Onboard Experience products are changing, this will not change or restrict the benefits you currently receive as a Card Member.
