Delta Airlines is a major American airline headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. The company was founded in 1929, has a fleet size of over 850, and travels to over 320 destinations worldwide. If you have an upcoming Delta Airlines flight and need to request wheelchair access, follow the steps as outlined below.


Request Wheelchair Access Online

After you have booked your flight, you can request wheelchair access online.

  1. Go to https://www.delta.com/
  2. Select ‘Manage My Trips.'
  3. Enter the details of your trip. You can enter your first and last name along with a choice of your:
  • Confirmation number
  • Credit or debit card number
  • Ticket number
  • Next, make a special request under your trip details for wheelchair access.
  • You should receive an email confirming your request has been submitted.


    • Fill Out Delta Airline's Online Form

    You can fill out an online form requesting wheelchair access.

    1. Go to https://www.delta.com/contactus/disability-service-request
    2. Fill out the details of each of the sections:
    • Passenger details for the person needing special assistance
    • Reservation details
    • Contact details
    • Service request details
    • Travel details
  • You should receive an email confirming your request has been submitted.


    • Contact Delta Airline Customer Support

    You can also call into Delta Airline's customer support team to request wheelchair access for an upcoming flight. You will need to provide certain details, such as your contact details, the details that match your passport, and your travel details. Once the customer service representative has processed your request, make sure to ask for an email confirming your request. Keep the customer service agent on the phone until you receive the email and have a chance to review it. If you're taking multiple flights, you will want to ensure that every flight has a wheelchair request.

    If there are any issues at the airport, and you don't have the wheelchair access you requested, you can show a Delta Airlines employee the confirmation email. Take a screenshot of the email or bring a print out of the email with you on your travels.

    Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Delta Airlines Problems?

    GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
