Please call Delta's Meeting Desk, (800) 241-6760, and mention NADA's convention account number, 176154A.
Northwest Airlines will waive administrative fees and some fare differences for passengers traveling to the Superbowl and the NADA Convention. To take advantage of Northwest's special waiver policy, passengers originally ticketed for travel to New Orleans for the Superbowl or the NADA Convention must reschedule their tickets before October 31, 2001. Passengers must rebook the same itinerary in the same fare class for travel the previous or following weekend. Original minimum/maximum stay requirements still apply. Northwest will waive administrative fees and any fare differences resulting from a change in the day of week, time of day or seasonal application. If the same class of service is not available, passengers will be able to apply the full value of their ticket against the current fare and Northwest will waive the administrative fee. Cancellation penalties will apply for passengers no longer traveling. Northwest will refund any administrative fees to those passengers who have already reissued their tickets prior to the establishment of the new policy outlined above.
Southwest Airlines charges no change fees.
