Delta teams are continuing to work with authorities at San Juan’s Luis Munoz Marin International airport to operate flights within the constraints of the damage caused by Hurricane Maria. On Sunday, Delta is scheduled to operate three roundtrip flights each from Atlanta and New York-JFK to San Juan, and plans to continue with this daily schedule.
In an effort to maximize space in the cargo hold for relief supplies, customers traveling to San Juan will temporarily be limited to three checked bags per ticketed passenger. The three checked bag limit does not apply to customers traveling from San Juan. Similarly, customers traveling to St. Maarten and St. Thomas will temporarily be limited to two checked bags weighing no more than 50 lb each per ticketed passenger. The two checked bag limit does not apply to customers traveling from St. Maarten and St. Thomas.
