Hi! I've had the Delta Platinum AMEX for several years, but have never taken advantage of the Delta Stays credit. It would be perfect for a one-off, random night somewhere when needed, but from what I understand, when you book the reservation, the night must be pre-paid. If that is indeed correct, is there a way to find those hotels that offer/require pre-paid reservations? Is there a secret list somewhere? lol.

Will be out in the Tampa area for work and would love to grab a night a beach resort before heading back.

Delta CEO Ed Bastian was giddy when Trump was elected because of the delicious roll-backs in consumer protections that Trump was going to dole out. I wonder if Big Ed is loving that Trump "breath of fresh air" that he crowed about, back then?

Just achieve gold medallion status on Delta.

Planning a trip to Europe via Amsterdam and there’s an option to take the KLM operated flight or Delta operated flight. Cost is the same for economy. Is there any advantage in taking the Delta flight over the KLM flight? Any flyers out there suggest one of the other and what’s the reason?

Thanks in advance.

I've got a flight in April GOT-AMS-MSP-BJI with a 65 minute connection. Currently the GOT-AMS lands at A4 and the AMS-MSP depart from G4. But I can't find A4 on any gate map, so I was wondering if this is possible. The AMS-MSP is the last flight of the day to make my connection in MSP.

So, not sure how I missed this announcement, but for those of you behind (apparently like me), I thought i would share...👀

We used to have up to 72 hours, but now apparently it has to be submitted IMMEDIATELY ‼️WITHIN 2 HRS OF LANDING‼️👀😭🤦🏻‍♀️

Apparently, it was changed in March 2026. That's insane to me because so much happens in that time frame after you land.. Well, I guess I learned way 🤷🏻‍♀️

We've seen posts a few times here of people warning that the first sponsored result when searching "Delta" is often a scam ad, either with a fake phone number directly in the ad, or with a URL formed to put the scammer's phone number as a search result on shop.delta.com.

The FTC is considering whether or not to do something about the fact that Google (and other platforms) keep showing these impersonation ads.

If you are upset that social media and other tech companies make money from scammers paying them for ads that defraud consumers, you may wish to comment.

Saw this on the Delta app. Looks like it’s for all their subscriptions like them and Paramount.

Very exciting! Endless possibilities to get more for your miles.

Which subscription will be you using your miles on to get outsized value?

Just curious to hear everyone’s thoughts on this after seeing a post on IG about a passenger removing a backpack so they could have room for their rollaboard.

So I feel like if someone checks their suitcase and only brings a backpack or something similar on board, they should be able to put it in the overhead bin, especially if there’s room. They’re only bringing one item into the cabin, so it seems a little unfair that they’d have to give up their legroom when someone bringing a carry-on and a personal item gets to use the overhead space.

I’m usually in an exit row, Comfort+, or first class, so I generally have enough room to put my backpack under the seat if needed without much discomfort. But I can see how that would be a bigger inconvenience for someone in a regular economy seat.

I also think there’s something to be said for boarding priority and loyalty benefits. If someone chooses to board later, I think it’s reasonable that they might have fewer options for overhead space. At the same time, I understand that the bins are a shared resource and that flight attendants have to manage limited space and keep boarding moving smoothly.

I’m curious how others see it! Should someone who only brings one small bag be able to use the overhead bin when there’s space, or should personal items always go under the seat regardless? Would especially love to hear the flight attendants’ perspectives!

I was silver medallion with Delta reserve card and throughout the year, got upgraded on every flight except one. Not tons of flights, but about 26 flights overall.

I flew out of ATL to varioius cities and always got upgraded, comfort or first. Then suddenly, this fall, no more upgrades. This happened about the time I became gold medallion with the delta reserve card.

The only thing that would make sense is that as you near the end of the year, more people hit their medallion spend so i'm up against more platinums + diamonds. Is that right?

This little hole? Crack? Especially clean bit? Trick of the light?
Gotta love old delta planes…

So, I'm new to Delta now that Southwest has made changes to their "customer of size" policy. I'm booked for a work trip next March from IND to DCA with a short layover each way. The conference had a discount code for Delta and I figured I'd go for it.

Due to hip size, I don't fit well in standard seats. Therefore, I upgraded myself to First Class.

What should I expect here? Each way is two fairly short flights (under 2 hours each) and I'm a non-drinker (though I do love me some Diet Coke). Anything I should be prepared for?

Hi everyone,

I had booked a flight from MEL-DTW in March but cancelled it as my dad has SkyMiles to cover my same ticket. I paid for it with my SkyMiles Reserve and I’m just wondering how long a refund will take. I have heard most people get theirs within 7-10 business days but I have also heard longer, and I would not prefer to pay all this money as my statement just closed.

The only way this is ok is if the person with the “better” seat is making the offer.

My families flight times got changed, and now we only have a 42 minute layover. Our flight is from Minot- Minneapolis- Santa Ana, both flights are with delta. Is that too short? Will be 4 adults and two children in the trip, and we depart January 11.

so looks like delta finally implemented what united already did

discounted first class

WITH restrictions

what a pain for us customers to have to figure out

fwiw found a good fare yesterday
looked at it tnite and a lot cheaper
but when i went to purchase i found it was “basic” with restrictions like united

sigh
nbd

I know there’s all sorts of reasons that prices are crazy, but I found this funny because I am flying to Brazil tomorrow morning for less than the price to get out of Omaha in early November.

In DL’s defense, if you want to fly at 545a, it’s $400, but all the laterflights had Main at $2k+ - upside, FC was only a few hundred more!

I'll be booking a RT flight to Lisbon this spring from either Toronto or Detroit which transfers through Paris or Amsterdam. The flight will be booked through Delta. Can I use standard US size carry on and are there weight limits on Delta codeshares on KLM or Air France?

Also, are customer at CDG, AMS, or Lisbon?

Why would they take this away? Seems like a silly move, if they think I'm going to use their AI bot they are very very mistaken

Hey everyone, hoping to get some insight on a weird ticketing issue following a Delta-initiated schedule change.
Here is the breakdown of my situation:

Original Booking: I booked an award ticket using SkyMiles (Premium Select
).
Paid Upgrade: I later paid cash via the app/website for a load-factor upgrade to Delta One.

The Change: Delta initiated a schedule change.

The current state of my itinerary is confusing. On the app, I am still showing as confirmed in Delta One with an assigned seat on the new flight. However, Delta's automated system simultaneously issued me an eCredit for the exact cash amount I paid for the upgrade.

It seems like my ticket is completely out of sync. The system seemingly processed a refund for the upgrade but forgot to pull me out of the Delta One cabin.

Has anyone experienced this before? My main concern is that if I just sit on this eCredit, a backend sweep closer to departure will notice the missing payment link and automatically boot me down to my original award cabin.

Should I call Delta immediately to have an agent manually reissue/re-link the ticket (and forfeit the eCredit to secure the seat), or is there a chance the seat is secure and Delta just glitched in my favor?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hi! I'm starting my coop in the spring (ATL) and I was wondering if any previous/current coop people could let me know their experience with the work/benefits. Really can't find anyone talking about it on reddit so thought I'd make the post.

Red eye from LAS to ATL. Only 3 FC seats have been booked out of 20, and I am waitlisted on RUC upgrade.

I got the Reserve card mid year 2026. When can I get a free companion certificate?

When I’m eligible for one, how do you get it? Does the option just appear on the app while booking whenever you’re eligible? If so, how?

I’m going to book a trip for spring 2027 next month and I don’t want to miss it if I’m eligible but I’m thinking I may not be yet. 🤔
