Delta Air Lines now expects fuel costs to rise by over $2 billion in three months due to the Iran war, prompting plans to reduce flight capacity. The airline aims to manage expenses by cutting growth and relying on a $300 million gain from its refinery. These changes affect Delta's financial outlook and could influence airline capacity and ticket prices.
