Understanding how to cancel an Alaska Airlines flight can save you time, money, and unnecessary stress. Alaska Airlines offers a flexible cancellation policy that allows passengers to cancel flights within 24 hours of booking for a full refund, provided the departure is more than 24 hours away. After this period, cancellation rules depend on the fare type. Nonrefundable tickets are usually refunded as travel credits, while Saver fares allow cancellation only within the 24-hour window. This guide explains the complete online cancellation process using the Manage Booking option, what fees may apply, and how refunds are processed, helping travelers manage sudden changes with confidence.
