American Airlines offers a cancellation policy based on the ticket purchased. For non-refundable tickets, passengers typically do not receive a cash refund but may get a travel credit, minus cancellation fees. Refundable tickets, however, allow for a full refund if canceled before the flight. If the airline cancels a flight, passengers will be issued a full refund, regardless of ticket type. Passengers can also cancel or change their flight within 24 hours of booking without a fee, as long as the departure is at least two days later
