Description
Refunds for Southwest flights depend on the type of fare you purchase. Business Select and Anytime fares are 100% refundable, meaning if you cancel your flight before its departure, you will receive a full refund to your original payment method. This is a great option if you need maximum flexibility in your travel plans.
For those booking on a budget, Southwest’s Wanna Get Away fares offer the lowest prices but are not refundable. Instead of a cash refund, if you cancel a Wanna Get Away fare, you will receive travel credits that can be used toward a future flight. These credits are valid for one year from the booking date and provide a good balance between affordability and flexibility.
