A few months ago, I had to fly from Atlanta to Los Angeles for a last-minute business trip, and I used Faresmatch to book my Delta Airlines ticket. It was my first time using their platform, so naturally, I was a bit nervous about whether my booking had gone through correctly. I didn’t want to get to the airport and find out something was missing, so I decided to check my Delta booking status right away — and I’m glad I did.
Here’s how I went about it, step-by-step, plus a few things I learned along the way that might help you too.
First, after booking through Faresmatch, you’ll receive a confirmation email that includes your Delta Airlines booking reference number (also called a PNR or confirmation code). It’s usually a six-character code made up of letters and numbers. Once I had that code, I went straight to Delta’s official website.
On Delta’s homepage, there’s a “My Trips” tab at the top. I clicked that, entered my
confirmation number and
last name, and hit “Search.” Within seconds, my full flight itinerary popped up — departure times, terminal info, seat number, and even the aircraft type. It was such a relief to see everything confirmed in one place.
However, here’s where it got interesting. A few hours later, I realized I needed to change my seat to one closer to the front since I had a tight layover. When I tried updating it online, the system wouldn’t process it because the ticket was booked through a third-party site (Faresmatch). That’s when I called
Delta’s customer service via Faresmatch at 877-297-0699, and honestly, that saved me a ton of time and stress.
The representative who picked up was incredibly polite and professional. She verified my booking in less than a minute, confirmed my identity, and quickly modified my seat preference. She even walked me through how to add my SkyMiles number so I could earn miles for the trip. I didn’t have to call Delta directly — Faresmatch handled it all since my booking was processed through them.
What really impressed me was how simple it was to track updates after that. Whenever there was a schedule adjustment or gate change, I got an email and a text message right away. Plus, by logging back into Faresmatch, I could see my updated itinerary synced with Delta’s system.
One tip I’d definitely share: if you’re ever unsure about the status of your Delta flight, or if you can’t find your confirmation email, just give Faresmatch a quick call at
877-297-0699. They can instantly retrieve your booking, resend the confirmation, and even help with cancellations or refunds if needed. It’s so much faster than waiting in a queue at the airport or trying to troubleshoot on your own online.
In my case, I had to later adjust my return flight by a few hours because of a delayed meeting. Instead of rebooking everything manually, I just called the same number again. The agent explained my options, checked fare differences, and helped me pick a new flight in under ten minutes.
So if you booked your Delta flight through Faresmatch and want to
check your booking status, here’s the quick version:
- Grab your booking reference number from your email.
- Visit the Delta Airlines “My Trips” page and enter your details.
- If you face any issues — like flight changes, refunds, or missing confirmation emails — call 877-297-0699 for immediate help.
It’s genuinely one of the easiest booking support experiences I’ve had, and after that, I started using Faresmatch for most of my Delta trips. They’re quick, responsive, and always get the job done.
