Delta Airlines Senior Discount – 2025 Guide
Delta does not publicly list a standard senior discount across all routes. However, “senior fares (available in certain markets)” are mentioned as a possibility when contacting Delta Reservations directly. Below is what is known as of 2025 — and what you can try to access.
- Call Delta Reservations. Senior fares may not appear online. Contact Delta Reservations (1-800-221-1212) and ask specifically for senior fare options.
- Book in advance. Senior fares, when offered, tend to apply to specific routes or fare classes and are limited in number.
- Join SkyMiles (free). Members can still earn miles on senior fares or redeem miles for discounted award flights.
- Compare with AARP offers. While Delta is not a direct AARP partner, AARP members can often save on hotel or package deals booked through the AARP Travel Center.
- Check flexible fares. Seniors often benefit from Delta’s Main Cabin Flex or Comfort+ options, which include free changes and more legroom.
Search or Request Delta Senior Fares
Since Delta’s senior discounts aren’t listed online, call or use the “Help Center” to request a senior fare quote. Then compare it to standard or refundable fare options.
