Change and cancellation rights are set by the airline and the fare rules attached to your ticket. This guide explains how to think about the decision. Airline rules, schedules, and government requirements change, so confirm specifics with the airline or the relevant official source before you book.

  • Note the booking provider's name
  • Read the fare rules before purchase

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Assuming a refund is automatic
  • Contacting the wrong party after a schedule change
