If you're considering canceling a Delta Basic Economy ticket to get credit for a new booking, 
(877) 624‑2166 is your best first call to understand your options. Beyond the 24‑hour risk‑free window, Basic Economy tickets are typically non‑refundable, but Delta may issue an eCredit after deducting a cancellation fee of about $99–$199, depending on your route.
Once the cancellation is processed, that eCredit becomes available toward a future Delta flight. To confirm how much credit you’ll receive, especially after combining a name change or voucher usage, call(877) 624‑2166. An agent can also ensure your credit is tied to the correct SkyMiles account and updated name.
If your goal is to re-book at a lower fare, confirm with(877) 624‑2166 that your new booking can fully utilise the eCredit—sometimes you'll owe a small balance, which can usually be paid by card at checkout.
