United Airlines offers a 24-hour cancellation policy, which allows passengers to cancel their flight for free, as long as the cancellation is made within 24 hours of booking. This policy is especially helpful for travelers who book flights and then realize they need to make changes soon after. To cancel within the 24-hour window, simply log into the United Airlines website, find your booking, and follow the cancellation steps.
For those who purchased refundable tickets, cancellations beyond the 24-hour window can still be made without incurring a fee. However, if you’ve booked a non-refundable fare, you may receive travel credits instead of a monetary refund. Be sure to review the fare conditions of your ticket to know what to expect.
