*Travel agency tickets issued for travel between October 7, 2023 and October 31, 2024, will be refunded by Delta. To avoid having Delta process the refund, agencies must reissue or refund tickets no later than Wednesday, October 23, 2024.

  • A ticket has already been reissued by Delta or the ticket is partially used; or
  • Customer contacts Travel Agent directly to initiate the refund
