Delta Fare Watch

How this works

Connect

Paste your access token and click Connect. It's kept only in this browser tab's session storage, so closing the tab clears it.

Exact-date check

A secondary check for the dates already held. It's under Tools in the rail when you need it, while Monthly Watch remains the main workflow.

Scan a month

Pick a held itinerary; the target month and an earliest-departure/latest-return window fill in automatically from its dates (edit or clear them for a wider search). Add required Atlanta dates when the trip must cover specific days; returning on the last required date is allowed. Then start a paid Apify Calendar scan. This costs real money and can take a couple of minutes — watch the elapsed timer under the button. When it finishes, open the fare grid report from Monthly scans below. Round trips only; one-way trips have their own section.

One-way

Prices a single direction across a month — SGU→ATL and ATL→SGU are separate searches, each anchored on its own tracked one-way trip. A leg has no stay, so the 4–10 Atlanta-day rule, the weekday-majority rule and the trip-length rules do not apply; only the travel window and your blackout dates narrow it. The whole window is one Calendar search rather than one per trip length, which makes it markedly cheaper than a monthly grid. Nothing is booked on these routes, so there is no baseline to beat and these scans never notify. The result is a date strip: every departure priced, cheapest and best fit marked.

Hidden city

Searches tickets ending at nearby airports, then keeps only a detailed non-Basic Delta itinerary whose segment chain actually connects at ATL or SGU. Calendar prices only choose which possibilities deserve the detailed pass; they never prove a hidden-city route. This is a deliberate manual search with no alerts or unattended schedule.

Blackout dates

Dates you're never available to travel. Every scan automatically excludes any trip that touches a saved range.

Award repricing

Delta doesn't expose award (mileage) pricing through any API, so there's no live source. Check Delta's award calendar by hand, enter the current mileage price here, and it applies your 15% discount and 1,000-mile floor instantly.

Add itinerary

Paste a Delta confirmation or receipt exactly as copied. Parse it first to check what was read, then track it — nothing saves until you confirm. If the receipt replaces a trip you already track (a rebooking), pick it from the dropdown first: the price drop is recorded as an eCredit against that trip instead of adding a second, unrelated one.

Tracked trips

Every itinerary you've saved, cash or miles, with its current baseline price or mileage. Above them, a running eCredit ledger lists every rebooking oldest first — what the fare moved from and to, what it returned, and the balance after it — headed by the total saved to date across all trips. Each trip also shows its own share of that total.

Edit a trip

Route and dates are editable on a placeholder or an award, including switching between a round trip and a single leg — that switch is what moves a trip between the Monthly Watch and One-way sections, and it carries the trip's recorded low along with it. A trip holding a real cash fare only takes notes here: its dates are the baseline every check prices against, so a replacement ticket goes through the rebooking flow under Add itinerary instead. Editing a trip so it is no longer a round trip to Atlanta switches its auto-scan off and says so.

Stop tracking

Removes the itinerary and its recorded price history. It cancels nothing with Delta — this tool never touches your booking. Completed scans stay listed under their own headings, since they record money already spent. If the trip banked eCredits, the confirmation names the amount, because removing it takes that out of your total saved.

Monthly scans

Scans from today and yesterday only. Weekend scans are the exception and stay listed, since they price no ticket you hold; every other pipeline expires, and anything that drops off is still reachable under Archive. A fare quote goes stale within a day, so an older scan is removed from the list rather than left there to be acted on; a scan that hasn't finished always stays, so you can resume it. Resume continues one that didn't finish. Refresh link re-verifies a stale Delta price-verification link without paying for another scan. Open report shows the full fare grid.

Lowest fares seen

The lasting record that outlives an expired scan: one point per completed scan, showing the cheapest verified Main fare it found, its dates, and how much it moved since the scan before. The all-time low and its dates sit at the top, and each tracked trip repeats its own low under Tracked trips. Calendar estimates are never plotted here — only fares a detailed pass actually verified.

Auto-scan (opt in per trip)

Off for every trip until you tick its box under Tracked trips. An enrolled trip is scanned on the configured interval using its held dates plus a buffer — never a whole unbounded month, which costs several times more. Quiet hours are enforced by the server on your local clock, so nothing runs or alerts overnight and daylight saving cannot shift the window. Scanning stops entirely if you untick the box.

Alerts

A scan only pages you when its cheapest verified fare beats your held price by the savings floor and beats whatever it last alerted you about for that trip by the same margin — so a drop that simply persists across the day's scans is sent once, not every few hours. Award and placeholder trips never alert, having no cash baseline to beat. If a notification fails to send, the price is deliberately not recorded as alerted, so the next scan tries again, and the scan row says the alert did not go out.

Run age

Every scan and check is stamped, and the status chips in the top bar show how long ago Apify last ran and how long ago the last exact-date check finished, with what each cost. Ages are measured against the server's clock, not this browser's, and turn red past 6 hours. Each tracked trip also shows when it was last scanned.

Archive

Where a trip or a scan goes when it stops being shown above. Archived and past trips live here instead of a fold-out under Tracked trips, and so does any scan that aged out of its own section or did not fit on the page. An expired scan keeps its saved report but offers no Resume and no link re-verification: its fares are no longer current, and the report is a record of what it found rather than something to act on.

Auto-refresh

The dashboard reloads itself every 60 seconds, so an unattended scan or a watchdog fault appears without pressing Connect again. It only re-reads stored state and never spends anything. It pauses while the tab is in the background, while a scan is running, and while you have anything typed or an editor open — the line in the top bar always says which, and how old the figures on screen are. Untick Auto-refresh to stop it; the choice is remembered.
