Delta waives change fees for New York, Newark and Boston flights after severe weather on 12–13 November 2026

Delta Air Lines is allowing customers booked to travel to, from or through five airports in the north-east of the United States on 12 and 13 November 2026 to change their flights without a change fee, under a severe-weather travel advisory published on its website. The airports covered are Newark (EWR), White Plains (HPN), New York JFK and LaGuardia (LGA), and Boston (BOS).

The advisory applies to tickets issued on or before 12 November 2026. Customers can move to another flight within the rebooking window at no cost. If the new flight departs on or before 16 November 2026 and is in the same cabin, the fare difference is waived, although the waiver only covers flights in the same booking class. When the rebooked travel takes place after 16 November, a difference in fare may apply.

Customers who prefer not to travel can cancel and receive an eCredit for future travel, which can be used towards a new ticket within one year of the original issue date. Delta also notes that changing the origin or destination of the trip may lead to a fare difference.

The advisory does not say which flights were cancelled or delayed, nor when it was first published. Passengers booked with Delta should check their flight status and options in the airline's app or website before going to the airport. Travellers flying with other airlines through these airports should check whether their own carrier has published a similar policy.
