  • The airlines only process name change requests for Delta flight segments in case of interline or codeshare agreement flights.
  • You can reissue your Delta ticket only once for name correction purposes.
  • Apart from the name, Delta Airlines Name Change policy doesn’t allow any changes to the date of birth, origin/destination point, ticket date, class, or gender. However, you can make minor changes to the date of birth only in case of mistakes committed at the time of booking.
  • This policy permits only minor corrections of up to 3 characters.
  • You cannot correct your ticket twice. Airlines will reissue the ticket if the request is once processed and the ticket still needs changes.
