ATLANTA, Aug. 27, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Delta Air Lines' (NYSE:DAL) customers booked on flights traveling to or from select cities in the Gulf Coast region may make adjustments to their travel schedule due to the impact of Hurricane Katrina.
Delta has proactively cancelled some flights in anticipation of the storm, and is currently working with customers to assist their travel plans.
Impacted cities include the following:
-- New Orleans, La. -- Alexandria, La. -- Baton Rouge, La. -- Lafayette, La. -- Monroe, La. -- Gulfport, Miss. -- Jackson, Miss. -- Meridian, Miss. -- Mobile, Ala.
Customers who have purchased tickets by Aug. 27, 2005, and are scheduled to travel Aug. 27 - Sept. 1, 2005, to, from or through select cities on Delta, Song(R), Delta Connection(R), or Delta-coded flights, may make a one-time change without penalty or additional fees if tickets are changed by Sept. 1, 2005, and travel begins on or before Sept. 1, 2005.
Customers may fly prior to their original departure time without penalty, and those whose flights are cancelled may request refunds.
Changes to origins and destinations may result in a fare increase, and any fare difference between the original and new ticket will be collected at the time of rebooking.
