A rather ugly winter storm is forecasted to hit Washington, D.C., this Sunday and Delta Air Lines just issued a travel advisory-weather waiver for passengers flying through one of three airports.
- Baltimore, MD (BWI)
- Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA)
- Dulles International Airport (IAD)
Sunday, January 19, is currently the only affected date. Tickets must be rebooked by Tuesday, January 21. Rebooked travel must commence no later than January 21, as well. Here’s the waiver’s official page on Delta.com.
Any applicable fare differences should be waived, provided you rebook in the originally ticketed cabin of service (i.e., Main Cabin).
You can read more about the storm here. It certainly will affect some travelers heading into town for Inauguration Day events.
Be Proactive
If you’re concerned, you might want to start making flight changes now before the ticketing lines (phone and in-person) get especially busy.
Remember that airlines generally don’t pay for any expenses (hotels, meals, ground transport, etc.) if you’re delayed due to weather. I hope you booked with a credit card offering good trip delay coverage or you hold travel insurance. (Or both!)
Contact Delta Air Lines for Rebooking Help
If you have questions or need to rebook travel, contact Delta Air Lines directly (not “Delta Airlines”) or the provider through whom you originally purchased travel.
