Passenger can make any changes needed.
Finally, it's doubtful youre paying for full F. Those generally cost thousands of dollars.
Thankfully Delta has an automated system that enabled them to phone me back so I did not have to wait on hold to make my mother's flight arrangements. I did in fact purchase a full F fare as Mom's hurrying to spend time with her sister whose husband of 50+ years just passed away. She and her husband have always held a very special place in my heart too. Given that, and my mother's own age and health issues, I wanted her to have the maximum flexibility. I also felt that on a F fare, the airline will provide her the best care in the event of IRROPS which may be more likely on the heels of the recent hurricane.
