Delta Air Lines is making it a little easier for passengers when vacation plans change. The airline stated that it will no longer charge change fees for same-day travel changes and will not charge people who attempt to fly standby for an alternate trip. Same-day travel changes can now be made directly on the Fly Delta app within 24 hours of their scheduled departure. The new flight must take off on the same day as the original flight.<\/p>\n<p>In airport parking news, DFW Airport parking is likely to cost more, with the Dallas Fort Worth Airport authorities planning to hike parking rates by $3 a day from October. This seems to be a recurring pattern, with airport parking lots looking to make up for losses of the past year. You might be better off looking at parking options near the airport instead of at the airport. Also, be sure to book your parking spot early enough so you won&#8217;t have any unpleasant surprises, such as parking rates being hiked at the last minute. Worrying about parking is the last thing you want to do when you have a flight to catch.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.way.com\/airport-parking?utm_source=way-blog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=what-happened-with-air-travel-last-week-august-2-8-2021\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22395 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/General-Airport-parking-banner.png\" alt=\"Air travel reaches another pre-pandemic high, but with niggles\" width=\"970\" height=\"90\" srcset=\"http:\/\/wordwblog02.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/General-Airport-parking-banner.png 970w, http:\/\/wordwblog02.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/General-Airport-parking-banner-300x28.png 300w, http:\/\/wordwblog02.way.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/General-Airport-parking-banner-768x71.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re going on a work trip or a family vacation, make sure to book parking now.
