• What happens if I cancel my American Airlines flight?

If you cancel your American Airlines flight before departure, the amount paid for your ticket will be applied to a flight credit that can be used for future travel within one year of your original ticket's purchase date. Flight credits are non-refundable, but applicable taxes and fees may be refunded. You may also be eligible for a partial refund depending on the fare purchased and the fare rules as applicable.
