Are bereavement fares still offered by the airlines?

Policies vary from airline to airline, but generally, bereavement fare discounts no longer exist. Instead, the airlines offer flexibility in the form of waivers of change fees, or sometimes waiver of advance purchase requirements. Proof of death in the form of a death certificate is required. With some airlines the traveler pays and then gets a refund of the change fee and in others the fee is waived up front.
