Delta Air Lines has introduced updated travel experiences and refreshed products for its customers, effective October 1. The new options include Basic, Classic, and Extra for Delta Main, as well as Classic and Extra for Delta Comfort and higher-tier products. The Extra experience is available on flights departing from the United States and Canada, with some international markets included.
Customers who previously purchased a “Basic Economy” ticket will now see it labeled as “Delta Main Basic,” while non-refundable tickets are now called “Classic.” Those who bought a refundable ticket for travel after October 1 in markets where Extra is offered will automatically receive the Extra experience without needing to take further action.
Delta clarified that travel experiences cannot be modified after purchase. However, travelers can cancel their itinerary and rebook if they wish to select a different experience, subject to fees or fare differences. Product upgrades—such as moving from Delta Main to Delta Comfort or Delta First—are allowed post-purchase for those holding Classic or Extra experiences. When upgrading, the original experience classification remains consistent throughout the journey. Customers with a Basic travel experience are not eligible for product upgrades but may buy seat assignments within their current product if available.
