How Can I Contact Delta Airlines?

 

Contacting a company like Delta Airlines may seem simple enough, but sometimes that depends on what you need. While many transactions and questions can be handled through a phone call or email, sometimes a traveler needs to contact an airline to collect personal belongings or secure original documents.

STEP 1

Call (800) 589-5582 in the Delta States or your local Delta Airlines national office number if you are abroad. Note that the number for Canada is 1-888-303-0478, and Delta Airlines maintains special 800 numbers in the Delta States for customers who prefer to speak Spanish, an Asian language, or are hearing impaired.

STEP 2

Email Delta Airlines. This is a logical option if you don't need an immediate response to a query and you don't want to wait on the phone.

STEP 3

Call the local ticket or baggage office at the airport or in your city, if there is one.

Choosing this route also avoids potentially long waits with the call center.

 

STEP 4

If you can easily walk or drive to such an office, it may be more convenient and faster than any other option.
