I was flying home from Germany for study abroad and whoever booked my flight gave me a 7 hour layover in ATL, even though there were two other flights to home before then🙄 I just called Delta directly and asked. I was 100% willing to pay because after 9 hours on a plane, you just want to be home and not sitting in an airport, but she didn’t charge. Maybe I got lucky with whoever answered the phone, but it’s worth a shot. It also depends on how booked your current flight vs. the flight you want to be on is

Same day - you have higher chance of no fee, I guess they figure higher chance to sell a seat

I assume that the earlier flight just works better for your schedule. Isn’t that enough?

Seriously. Partner 1 is like an angel for even caring so much to actually offer that
