Delta Air Lines reports it is offering customers whose flight plans may be affected by severe storms in New York City and Philadelphia the ability to make one-time changes to their travel schedules, Nov. 6-8, without incurring fees.

Customers booked on Delta-ticketed flights to, from or through the following airports Nov. 6 through Nov. 8 may rebook for travel with the same origin and destination. New flights may occur before or after original travel dates as long as they are ticketed and rescheduled for travel on or before Nov. 16, 2012.

• John F. Kennedy International Airport
• Newark Liberty International Airport
• Philadelphia International Airport
Flight delays are likely at airports in locations listed above as a result of high winds and heavy rain,Delta said. Delta said it will proactively reduce flight schedules to minimize delays.
Delta encourages customers to make changes and manage their travel at delta.com and using the Fly Delta app. All customers traveling in impacted markets should check their flight status via delta.com or the Fly Delta app before arriving at the airport.
Changes to origin or destination may result in a fare increase, and any fare difference between the original ticket and the new ticket will be collected at the time of rebooking, Delta said. Customers whose flights are cancelled may request refunds.
