My travel plans have unexpectedly changed, and I no longer need the upgraded seat I booked on Delta flight. How can I downgrade?

These steps will help you downgrade your Delta flight seat if your plans change at the last minute and you no longer need the upgraded seat you booked:

• Check the fare rules of your original ticket to see if you can change or refund paid upgrades if you booked them through the My Trips seat map or offers shown on the Trip Details page.

• If the fare rules say that the upgrade can be changed or refunded, call Delta's customer service and ask for a downgrade. Give the details of your reservation and say that you no longer need the upgraded seat.

• Depending on their rules and the fare rules of your original ticket, Delta may let you downgrade and give you a refund or credit for the value of the paid upgrade.

It's important to remember that paid upgrade seats usually can't be moved to a different flight or itinerary. In addition, you can't buy paid upgrades after the check-in window for the flight has closed. You might get an eCredit for the value of your paid upgrade if you cancel your flight before the 24-hour check-in window opens.
