More chaotic air travel may be on the horizon.

Are you flying into Orlando this year?

Of course, an increase in travelers is expected this 4th of July weekend. There are so many places to go for the holiday — including Disney World! But the increase in traveling is hitting at a time when flight cancelations and staffing shortages are on the rise.

According to the Washington Post, Delta is allowing customers to change their 4th of July weekend flights for no cost. Airlines are notorious for being stringent on the ability to change flights without an additional cost, so…this may mean Delta is already planning ahead for massive cancelations.

Travelers flying between Friday, July 1st and Monday, July 4th, will be able to rebook for free, without having to pay for the difference in fares, or a change fee. There are some rules, however. Your route must remain the same, and your rebooked trip must begin no later than July 8th.

While this provides Delta travelers with a bit more flexibility, it also implies that a weekend full of potentially long lines and cancelations. To see what recent flight cancelations have looked like, click here. Or, click here to see what to do if your flight to Disney World is canceled.
