How does United Airlines handle flight cancellations? United Airlines’ cancellation policy varies based on ticket type. Refundable tickets offer the most flexibility, allowing you to cancel up to departure for a full refund. Non-refundable tickets may not offer refunds, but you could receive a travel credit to use for future flights. Additionally, United Airlines’ 24-hour risk-free cancellation allows you to cancel any booking within 24 hours of purchase for a full refund, as long as the flight is at least seven days away.
You can easily cancel through the “My Trips” section on the United Airlines website or app.
