What is the fee for traveling with a musical instrument on my Delta Air Lines flight?

Delta Air Lines allows passengers to travel with musical instruments either as carry-on luggage, checked baggage, or by purchasing a separate seat for larger instruments. The fees for traveling with a musical instrument on Delta Air Lines depend on the type and size of the instrument, and whether it is carried on board or checked in.

• Carry-on luggage: If your musical instrument meets the carry-on size requirements (up to 22 x 14 x 9 inches or 56 x 35 x 23 cm), it can be carried on board at no additional charge, provided there is space available in the overhead bin or under the seat in front of you.
• Checked baggage: If your musical instrument does not meet the carry-on size requirements, you may check it as part of your checked baggage allowance. Standard checked baggage fees apply, which vary depending on your ticket type, destination, and frequent flyer status. Oversized and overweight baggage fees may also apply if your instrument exceeds the size and weight limits for checked luggage.
• Separate seat: For larger instruments that do not fit in the overhead bin or under the seat, you can purchase a separate seat to secure your instrument in the cabin. The cost of this seat is equivalent to a full adult fare for the same flight and class of service.

Please note that these fees and policies are subject to change, and it is always best to consult Delta Air Lines' official website or contact their customer service for the most up-to-date information.
