If you have had a delayed flight when flying Delta it's likely they sent you a food voucher. The voucher can't be used for in flight purchases but the idea is that you use that voucher at one of the dining establishments at the airport while you're waiting. Far too many times, you don't even get the voucher until you've taken off and a few years ago I tried playing with a few things to see how I could use it and not waste it and always forget to post it...not today.

So the voucher is basically a pre-paid mastercard number (QR code to use at the airport food court) with a exp date and CIV code but usually has an expiration date not that far after your flight. We flew 2/14, had a delay they sent us a voucher and it had an an expiration date of 2/19.

If this happens you you what you can do if you don't spend it in the airport is load that mastercard on to your doordash, Chi Fil A or Starbucks, etc app for payment and use it after you land/arrive.

I forgot to mention in the post but once you add the card to your doordash wallet for example, it still needs to be used by the date they tell you (not the expo date on the card). But it does give you a few more days to use it.

The daughter appreciated her $35 5oz lobster roll from Freshies here in Park City today thanks to Delta

I'll never understand why people intentionally eat at an airport or on a plane (int'l excepted.) The worst I've done is buy a footlong at Subway for a flight to Asia.

It wasn't purchased at the airport; that's the point.

I wonder why alcohol is excluded. What difference does it make to Delta on how you spend the voucher?
