How much does Delta charge for Comfort Plus?

Comfort Plus fares can be upgraded from Main Cabin for as little as $10 on some short-hop Delta routes ? but could cost you hundreds of dollars on others. Loyal Delta flyers who have earned Medallion Status can get upgraded to Comfort Plus for free.



The cost to upgrade to Delta Comfort+ is not a fixed price; instead, it utilizes dynamic, date-based pricing that depends on the route, flight duration, and current demand. Generally, for domestic U.S. flights, you might see upgrade offers ranging from $15 to $150 per segment. For long-haul international routes, the price can climb significantly, sometimes between $100 and $500 or more, depending on how close the flight is to capacity. Comfort+ provides up to 3 inches of extra legroom, dedicated overhead bin space, and "premium" snacks and alcoholic beverages. It is often more cost-effective to book Comfort+ at the time of initial purchase rather than waiting to upgrade later, as the fare difference is sometimes lower than the post-booking upgrade fee. If you have Delta Medallion status, you may be eligible for complimentary upgrades to Comfort+ shortly after booking (for Diamond and Platinum members) or closer to departure (for Gold and Silver members), making it one of the most popular perks for frequent flyers.
