minus-squaremozzlinkfedilink15•5 months agoEvery airline I have purchased even nonrefundable tickets from has been willing to refund it no questions asked within 24 hours. VITAL caveat: This DOESN’T APPLY if you’re going through Kayak or whatever. Just buy direct from the airline. I learned this the hard way.
minus-square@delirious_owllink4•5 months agoYeah but some resellers like kayak offer 48 hour refunds. Its very useful for those annoying border control agents that insist you have an exit flight for your one-way journey. Just cancel it after entry.
