Cancel a Flight or Review Ticket Value
Before cancelling, check the fare rules and whether the ticket is refundable, eligible for credit or subject to restrictions.
Cancellation timing matters: some reservations have deadlines and unused flight coupons can affect subsequent segments.
Refunds, credits and fees depend on the actual ticket, airline rules, purchase channel and whether the airline cancelled or materially changed the service.
Before requesting assistance
- Confirm the passenger name exactly as shown on the ticket.
- Locate the airline confirmation code and 13-digit ticket number, if issued.
- Identify the ticket issuer and whether any flights have already been flown.
- Prepare the desired travel dates, airports and any alternative flights.
How the review works
- Identify the booking: confirm the airline, itinerary and ticket status.
- Check servicing responsibility: determine whether the ticket is controlled by the airline, BookMyReservations or another issuing provider.
- Review available options: assess applicable fare rules, flight availability, ticket value and potential costs.
- Confirm before proceeding: review any quoted amounts and conditions before authorizing a transaction.
Airline-initiated schedule changes, disruptions and voluntary traveler requests may have different rules. Contact the operating airline promptly for urgent airport-day disruptions.
