The 24 Hour Cancellation Rule

Many airlines offer a 24-hour cooling-off period as a customer service policy, allowing you to cancel your flight, incurring no fees if you change your mind or otherwise need to cancel within 24 hours of booking. This policy typically applies to both refundable and non-refundable tickets.

One of the best ways to ensure costless flight cancellations is to book flights with flexible fare options. Airlines offer different ticket categories, and those with more flexibility tend to have lower change and cancellation fees.

There is no capping on the refund amount. 100% of your ticket value would be refunded to you. Instant Refund of the entire Ticket price (airfare only) will be initiated when the cancellation confirmation from the airline has been received.

Flight Cancellations and Compensation:

When flights are cancelled, airlines are required to either arrange an alternative flight that departs within two hours of the original departure time or provide a refund for the ticket.

You can get your money back for all parts of the ticket you haven't used. For instance, if you have booked a return flight and the outbound leg is cancelled, you can get the full cost of the return ticket back from your airline.

In those cases, generally a cancellation fee will be deducted from the original cost of your flight and then any remaining value is provided as a credit/voucher that can be used towards the purchase of another ticket. Exactly how much value you'll retain depends on the fees, and those vary by airline.

Cancelling flights can incur a fee. A cancellation fee charged is sometimes charged by the airline, depending on the terms and conditions of your ticket. If you purchase a fully-refundable flight ticket, this fee may not apply. You might be wondering why you would pay money to cancel a flight that you're not flying on.

The cancellation fee represents the average costs that we encounter from a cancelled reservation received that far in advance. If we offered a full refund when we were able to fill a spot, then we'd have to charge the full trip price (instead of just a cancellation fee) to someone whose spot we were unable to fill.
