How To Avoid Flight Cancellation And Change Fees
Most travelers aren't aware just how much it costs to cancel or reschedule a flight due to the change fees charged by the airlines. The way people usually find out is that they get sick or have a family member die, and end up having to reschedule a vacation. Only then do they realize how much they're about to be gouged. Here's how to avoid a change fee on your next trip.
Some tips for avoiding change fees:
- know if you're buying a refundable or non-refundable ticket
- Tickets bought on third party sites will have more restrictions and often more change fees. Buy direct.
- Cancel the ticket as soon as you can. Often you can cancel within 24 hours of purchase it's no big deal.
- Purchase travel insurance.
- Hope for a travel waiver due to inclement weather.
- In some cases you can get a full refund when a family member dies, natural disasters occur and a few other scenarios.
