Another 600 Delta flights cancelled, more expected

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) – Delta is continuing its operational recovery Saturday following an outside vendor technology issue that prompted the airline to pause flying for several hours on Friday.

As of 10 a.m. on Saturday, more than 600 Delta and Delta Connection flights were canceled, mostly in the morning and early afternoon.

According to the airline, additional cancelations are expected as some of Delta’s technology continues to recover from Friday morning’s vendor-caused issue.

The airline says they are notifying customers about delays and cancelations in their itinerary via the Fly Delta app and text message, and offering re-booking options that can be managed online.

Customers are encouraged to check delta.com or the Fly Delta app for the latest information about their itinerary.

A travel waiver, which offers customers the ability to make a one-time change to their itinerary, is still in effect for those with travel booked on Saturday, July 20.

The fare difference for customers will be waived when rebooked travel occurs on or before July 25, in the same cabin of service as originally booked.

Delta says they will continue to offer meal vouchers and hotel accommodations where available for customers whose flights are significantly delayed or canceled Saturday.
