Southwest Airlines is known for its customer-friendly policies, offering flexible options for cancellations and refunds to suit various travel needs. With policies that are straightforward and designed to minimize fees, Southwest allows travelers peace of mind when booking. Here's a detailed look at Southwest’s refund policy for different fare types and situations. If you have specific questions or need assistance with a refund or change, our support team is here to help at 1-855-738-4265. Refund Eligibility by Fare Type Southwest offers three primary fare types: Wanna Get Away, Anytime, and Business Select. The refund policies vary depending on the fare, with Business Select and Anytime fares being refundable to the original form of payment, while Wanna Get Away fares are typically non-refundable. However, even non-refundable fares can be canceled, and the funds saved as travel credit for future use. If you need assistance determining the eligibility of your ticket type for a refund, reach out to us at 1-855-738-4265. 24-Hour Cancellation Policy Southwest allows travelers to cancel or change their reservation within 24 hours of booking to receive a full refund to the original form of payment, regardless of fare type. This flexible cancellation option applies to all tickets as long as the booking was made at least seven days before departure. To take advantage of the 24-hour cancellation policy or to process a refund within this window, contact our team at 1-855-738-4265. Refunds on Wanna Get Away Fares Wanna Get Away fares are Southwest’s most economical option and are generally non-refundable. However, if you cancel a Wanna Get Away fare, you will receive a travel credit instead of a cash refund. This credit is valid for one year from the original booking date and can be applied to future Southwest flights. To inquire about a Wanna Get Away refund or to verify your credit balance, please contact us at 1-855-738-4265. Anytime and Business Select Fares Both Anytime and Business Select fares are fully refundable, meaning travelers can cancel these tickets and receive a full refund to their original payment method. This makes Anytime and Business Select ideal for travelers needing maximum flexibility. Southwest will process refunds for these fare types promptly, but processing times may vary by payment method. For guidance on refunding Anytime or Business Select fares, call 1-855-738-4265. No-Show Policy and Refunds Southwest has a no-show policy for flights that helps ensure seats are not left empty. If a passenger with a Wanna Get Away fare does not cancel or change their reservation before the scheduled departure, the fare may be forfeited. However, Anytime and Business Select fares will remain eligible for a refund or travel credit in no-show situations. To avoid potential forfeiture, please make changes or cancellations at least 10 minutes before departure. For clarification on the no-show policy or assistance, contact 1-855-738-4265. Southwest Travel Funds and Credits When you cancel a non-refundable Wanna Get Away ticket, Southwest converts the value into travel funds or credits, which can be used for future bookings. These credits are tied to the original passenger’s name and are non-transferable. To check the balance of your travel credits or to learn more about how to apply them to a new booking, please call 1-855-738-4265. Refund Process and Timeline Once you’ve initiated a refund request, Southwest typically processes refunds within 7-10 business days, though this may vary depending on the payment method. Refunds issued to credit cards may take less time, while those to debit cards or PayPal may experience a longer processing period. To check on the status of your refund or if you have questions about the timeline, please contact 1-855-738-4265. Refunds for Unused Add-Ons and Extras Southwest does not generally refund payments for add-ons, such as EarlyBird Check-In or upgraded boarding, if you cancel your flight. These additional services are non-refundable, even if the flight is canceled. However, some exceptions may apply depending on the circumstances, so if you have questions about a specific add-on or need assistance with a refund, reach out to 1-855-738-4265. Refunds for Canceled Flights by Southwest If Southwest cancels a flight due to operational disruptions or weather issues, the airline offers customers a choice between rebooking on an alternate flight or receiving a full refund. This policy applies to all fare types, ensuring passengers have flexibility in case of unexpected disruptions. For more information on receiving a refund for a canceled flight, please contact our team at 1-855-738-4265. Companion Pass and Rapid Rewards Members For Southwest Rapid Rewards members or those traveling with a Companion Pass, the refund policies remain consistent with the fare type purchased. Companion tickets can be canceled, and the original ticket holder’s funds will be processed according to the fare rules.
