Cancellation Policy Of American Airlines

American Airlines is the world’s largest airline when measured by its fleet size, scheduled passengers carried, and revenue passenger mile. The airline has been in operations for over 85 years now and is known for its customer-friendly policies.

If you have booked a flight with American Airlines and wish to cancel the booking, it is worth your time to familiarize yourself with their cancellation policy and process. Airline policies can be a little confusing due to the various terms and conditions. Below we summarize the major guidelines of the Cancellation Policy of American Airlines.

The customer is entitled to receive a full refund if they cancel their flight ticket within 24 hours of the purchase. This only applies to bookings made at least two days prior to the flight’s scheduled departure.

If you have made your booking from a travel agent or any other party and not directly from American Airlines, you will have to contact the agency directly for any cancellations.

If the customer has purchased a refundable ticket then they are eligible for a full refund which can be requested online through the official website of American Airlines.

If the passenger happens to have purchased a non-refundable ticket then they won’t be able to receive a refund after the 24 hour period. Although, when a non-refundable ticket is canceled before the departure, the passenger can use the unused value of eligible fares for a future booking with the airline.

It is essential to note that the cancellation policy of American Airlines depends on the type of fare booked by the passenger.

For any reservations booked as part of a group block, the 24-hour refund policy is not applicable.
