One thought on “Delta Fare Class NT”
Marvin Kale says:
NT Fare is same as baggage fee.
Center seats and nothing free about it except planes leaves full
Cannot get out of center seat unless you pay up charge, Upgrade? Forget about it
All those years spent to be a Million Miler and you get put in center seat when you request free ticket
