>2 hours hold time, AYFKM?
We have a trip at the end of October to Turks and Caicos on Delta. Over the last couple of months they have twice changed our return flight itinerary. So our booked 2:45 layover is now 5 hours, and we ultimately get home at about 2 in the morning after a 5 hour layover in ATL (in masks). We're in the DC area so can use IAD, DCA, or BWI. BWI now has a much better connection, getting us home before midnight. I log on to Delta's website and while I can "change" the flight, I cannot change the airports. So I have to call Delta reservations.
I called this afternoon and gave up after 1.5 hours on hold. Then I tried their chat function in the Delta app. They texted me back after an hour and a half and asked if I still wanted to wait for them to get back to me. I declined.
I just called Delta again - 11:00 pm Eastern, and they told me they had a 2 hour 10 minute wait (which was good since they told me nothing this afternoon). I'm going to try again tomorrow, hoping weekdays are better than weekends.
I was a frequent flyer for a long time and would call the reservations number with flight disruptions, it was always much faster than waiting in line at the the airport customer service desk. Not any more I guess?
Have others seen this and does anyone have a workaround?
