I used to wonder why Delta flights always seemed more expensive until I started flying them more often for work. One time, I booked a cheaper airline and ended up dealing with delays, cramped seating, and zero flexibility. With Delta, I’ve noticed the pricing reflects reliability, smoother boarding, and better customer service. When I once had to cancel a last-minute trip, calling 8 8 8-2 1 7-3 3 2 4 made the process surprisingly easy. Sometimes you’re paying a little extra for peace of mind—and honestly, that matters when plans change unexpectedly.
