Winter Storm Fern: Delta's Plan to Keep You Safe and Moving

Winter Storm Fern is causing a stir, and Delta is taking action. They're canceling flights ahead of time to keep everyone safe. Ice and snow are expected to hit Atlanta on Sunday, with heavy snowfall in the Northeast starting Sunday afternoon. Delta wants you to know that if you're traveling this weekend, it's a good idea to change your flight plans. They've got waivers in place until Monday, Jan. 26, so you can adjust your travel without extra fees. You can do this easily through the Delta app or their website. Delta is also working hard to make sure things run smoothly. They're adding more staff, like pilots and flight attendants, and moving experts from colder areas to help with deicing and baggage handling in Southern airports. They're also trying to keep planes out of the frozen precipitation to speed up recovery once the weather improves.If your flight is canceled or delayed, Delta will automatically rebook you on the next available flight. But if you're not happy with that option, you can contact them for help finding another flight. And if your flight is delayed for more than three hours domestically or six hours internationally, you can get a full refund for the part of the ticket you didn't use. Delta is doing its best to keep everyone informed. They're sending updates to customers' phones or emails, so you can stay up-to-date on your flight status. They're also encouraging customers to check their flight status before heading to the airport.
