I’ve long said that United Airlines has the best mobile app. Delta Air Lines is quickly leveling the playing field with some changes to its own app. The latest update to its mobile app, version 7.5, introduces several key features designed to simplify trip planning, enhance day-of-travel visibility, and give SkyMiles® Members even more control and insight throughout their journey.
One of the most anticipated updates is the Flexible Dates Calendar, a redesigned tool that allows travelers to easily compare fares across multiple days to find the best price for their trip. The new Flex Calendar streamlines shopping by displaying flight prices in a simple, scrollable layout. This makes it effortless to spot the lowest fares, even during peak holiday periods.
This enhancement is particularly helpful for those redeeming Delta American Express Companion Certificates or using eCredits, as it highlights eligible dates within the same interface. The result is a faster, clearer, and more flexible booking experience tailored to travelers who want to maximize their benefits.
For iPhone users, Delta has expanded its Live Activities and Dynamic Island features, adding even more real-time information directly to the lock screen. Passengers can now view essential day-of-travel details such as boarding zones, seat assignments, and baggage carousel information (all at a glance and precisely when they need it).
This enhancement builds on Delta’s ongoing effort to deliver a seamless digital experience that keeps travelers informed and in control from check-in to arrival.
The update also brings a brand-new Delta Sky Club Tracker, giving Delta SkyMiles® American Express Card Members a clear view of their club access and benefits. Members can now track their Sky Club visits, monitor annual spending, and follow progress toward earning unlimited club access for the following year (all directly within the app). This new tool is part of Delta’s continued focus on transparency and convenience, ensuring members can easily understand and manage their travel perks.
In another time-saving enhancement, travelers can now update their Known Traveler Number (KTN) directly in the Delta app—eliminating the need to log in through delta.com. The change makes it easier to keep TSA PreCheck® and Global Entry information current, ensuring smoother security experiences at the airport.
Later this month, Delta will introduce Delta Concierge, an all-new digital travel assistant designed exclusively for SkyMiles Members. Launching as a beta experience for select users, Delta Concierge will deliver personalized, real-time support through the app, helping travelers navigate every stage of their journey with confidence.
Powered by generative AI, the feature aims to complement Delta’s award-winning customer service teams by providing fast, accurate answers on the go. This innovation is part of Delta’s broader investment in building a more personalized, connected, and stress-free travel experience for its customers.
Anthony’s Take: With these latest updates, the Delta app continues to evolve in a great way. It offers intelligent tools that connect every stage of the journey. From fare comparisons and loyalty tracking to real-time updates and digital assistance, the app ensures travelers stay one step ahead, every step of the way. Whether booking a last-minute holiday trip or planning months in advance, Delta’s enhanced app puts power, flexibility, and confidence in travelers’ hands.
