Reconfirming return Delta flight in Italy
Delta has given me the following number at which
to reconfirm our return flight from Italy to the U.S. 800-477-999 We'll not be in a hotel 24-48 hours before flight time and will have to call from our cellphone. Has anyone had the experience of reconfirming a Delta flight in Italy? Many TIA, A. |

Calling the day or two before isn't so much to reconfirm your reservation, but more to reconfirm the time of departure (and perhaps, if the flight was cancelled, get some different return travel arrangements). And yes, in case there was some screwups with your reservation, it is better to know a day or two in advance than when you show up at airport. This applies also if there was a change of aircraft type and your set pre-selection is no longer what you'd want. Also, calling a couple days before return trip is good to leave some telephone number where you can be reached in case of last minute schedule changes. |

What about a pay phone? |

I do know that my WIND charged me nothing to dial an Italian toll free number to call Net2Phone the last time I used the phone I purchased in Italy. This was from rural Sardinia. Maybe this has changed too? |
