How many hours before a flight ticket can be cancelled?

Last updated on April 25, 2023

Most airline tickets can be cancelled up to 24 hours before a flight is scheduled to depart. However, the exact time depends on the airline and the type of ticket you purchased. For most tickets, you should allow at least 24 hours before cancellation. Some refundable tickets may allow for a longer cancellation window, while most nonrefundable tickets may require cancellation within just a few hours. Be sure to check with the airline for the exact cancellation window for your ticket.
