Delta Airlines Non-Refundable Ticket Cancellation

If a non-refundable ticket has been purchased and you want to cancel it then Delta Airlines will deduct a cancellation fee from your original ticket cost. The airline will provide an eCredit on the remaining value, if any. You must use the eCredit within one year from the date of issue of ticket to purchase a new ticket for future travel.

You will have to pay $200 or more as a cancellation fee (subject to change as per existing fare rules), which depends on your itinerary purchased.
