Claim it through Chase Travel or Delta Air Lines. Here's how.

How to claim a price drop through Chase Travel
3 methods ranked by ease and success rate.
- 1
Book the same flight at the lower fare first, so you do not lose it
- 2
Log in to your Chase account, open the travel section and find the original booking
- 3
Cancel it in the Chase Travel portal. Airlines must allow penalty-free cancellation within 24 hours for US flights booked at least seven days before departure
Cancel through Chase Travel, not the airline: Chase issued the ticket. If you paid with points, the points are generally returned to your Ultimate Rewards account.

- 1
Find the Chase Travel phone number in your booking confirmation email or your Chase account (it varies by card)
- 2
Ask the agent what cancelling would return under the airline's rules. A non-refundable fare usually becomes a flight credit with the airline, often minus a change fee
- 3
If the credit is clearly worth more than the new fare, cancel and use the airline credit toward the cheaper booking
The credit comes from the airline, not Chase, and the airline's rules decide how long it lasts and where it can be used. Confirm how any leftover balance is kept before you rebook, since Chase does not promise it.
- 1
Open your trip in the Fly Delta app or My Trips on delta.com with Delta's 6-character confirmation number and your last name. Use the code Delta sent, not the booking site's itinerary number
- 2
Try "Change Flight" first and pick the same flight at the lower fare. If Delta shows the difference coming back as an eCredit, confirm: your seats and booking stay as they are
- 3
If Delta will not change it or shows nothing back, choose "Cancel Flight" instead. Before you confirm, check that the full ticket value is kept as a Delta eCredit
- 4
Book the same flight at the lower fare on delta.com or in the app and pay with the eCredit. Whatever is left stays as an eCredit in your name
- 5
If the eCredit will not apply online, call Delta at 1-800-221-1212 with your ticket number (it starts with 006) and ask an agent to apply it
Do this yourself in the app or on delta.com, not through the booking site and not by phone or chat: Delta charges $50 for changes it makes on a travel-site ticket and waives it in My Trips, and a booking site may turn the ticket into its own credit and keep the leftover. Delta will not let you do this in the first 24 hours after booking. The eCredit goes to the traveler named on the ticket, and a ticket paid with card points comes back as an eCredit, not points.
Delta Air Lines change fees
Even when claiming through Chase Travel, the underlying fare class determines whether rebooking makes financial sense.
Delta Air Lines change fee by fare class
These are Delta Air Lines's fees. Chase Travel may also charge additional service fees. Confirm the total before proceeding.

Common questions about claiming a price drop on Delta Air Lines when booked through Chase Travel.
