My father passed away yesterday, and I have spent the day in a fog of travel and funeral arrangements. Knowing I had to fly out immediately, I was expecting exorbitant costs. Searched around, found the best ones on Kayak. Then I called around to the airlines for their bereavement fares. Most of them are non-existent or bullshit, but I ended up having a very positive experience with Delta. They didn't even ask me for the hospital or funeral home name, and quoted me a price well below the fairly decent Kayak price. Ticket is also fully refundable. So thanks, Delta, for making a horrible time a little less horrible.
