Airline adds policy to expand commitment to safe travel beginning July 29

Starting July 20, customers who believe they have an underlying condition that prevents them from wearing a mask are required to complete a "Clearance-To-Fly" process before being permitted to travel, for everyone's safety.

Delta is offering the highest standards in sanitization and protection for travel confidence

Requiring that customers wear masks is an extension of our safety commitment, and enforcement is a responsibility we take seriously.

This data-driven effort is a rapid response to insights gathered from Delta customer surveys.

In keeping with best practice guidelines from the CDC, starting May 4 Delta will require all customers to wear a face mask or appropriate face covering when traveling.
