Delta Airlines tests low fare seating option

HOUSTON – We're all looking for ways to save money while traveling. Now Delta Airlines is testing a new low fare seating option.

The Orlando Sentinel reports the "basic economy" seats are about $12 to $20 cheaper than regular economy seats.

They are non-refundable and no cancellations or changes are allowed after the tickets are purchased.

Passengers who choose a basic economy ticket will not be able to select their seats. Instead, they will be assigned by a computer.

Passengers can still earn frequent flier miles on the cheaper tickets.
