Flight Upgrades

Hello everyone!

I will be flying from HNL to SEA on 12/3 and back on 12/11. I have some Delta skymiles but I don't see an option to upgrade my seats on any of the flights. Does anyone know if this is an option I am suppose to have?

Thanks!

Only if you are on a Y, B or M fare. And you would have to call; it can't be done online.

Isn't it Y B M H Q K for the Hawaii flights and Y B M only for genuine international BE upgrades?

To the OP. Call DL and ask if you can upgrade. If your ticket is too inexpensive to qualify, you might be able to pay the difference and up fare. They may or might not charge you a change fee of probably $150. Before agreeing to pay anything additional, make sure that upgrade inventory is really available for your flights.

I stand corrected. It is now YBMHQK for all domestic flights including Hawaii. I must have missed the memo.

Correct... K fares and up to/from Hawaii.
