Description
When canceling a Spirit Airlines flight, getting a refund depends on the type of fare you purchased and the timing of the cancellation. Spirit Airlines operates under a strict refund policy, typically offering non-refundable fares. However, there are exceptions. If you cancel your flight within 24 hours of booking and the flight’s departure is at least seven days away, you are entitled to a full refund. This is in line with the U.S. Department of Transportation's 24-hour cancellation rule.
Beyond that 24-hour window, Spirit Airlines offers credits instead of refunds for future travel, but this comes with a cancellation fee, which varies depending on how close the cancellation is to the flight date. To cancel your flight, log into your Spirit account, navigate to "My Trips," and follow the cancellation process. You will be shown any applicable fees and whether you are eligible for a refund or travel credit.
