Cancel/Refund delta award ticket due to injury
« on: October 16, 2011, 12:50:30 PM »
I booked a Delta award ticket for my grandmother to go to Israel for my cousin's wedding. But over Yom Tov she fell and broke her kneecap. Is there any way to get the miles refunded without any fees due to the injury? I see that United has something like that for paid tickets but I can't seem to find anything on Delta.

Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Never hurts to hear about other people's experiences too.

You asked for advice and suggestions. That's what Dan gave you.  As far as experience I've had no problem with calling numerous times. Good luck!

I had something similar, I had luck calling the corporate customer care and they had me fax a letter from a Dr. and they waived the fees.
