Delta has permanently eliminated exchange rates for international travel, and is also extending the elimination of exchange rates for all tickets purchased through March 30.

Major U.S. airlines began implementing temporary exchange rate waivers this year to overcome the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last month, American Airlines said it will eliminate exchange rates for first class, business class, premium economy and main cabin tickets for all international long-haul flights.
