Southwest Airlines is one of the only airlines that allows you to make free changes to your bookings ( the deadline for making changes is 1 hour prior to departure). But Southwest also has a great cancellation policy. When it comes to Senior Fares, as long as you cancel your ticket at least ten minutes prior to departure, you can get a full refund on your ticket in the form of cash. This is same policy that applies if you purchased an Anytime fare or a Business Select fare. Both of those are the other type of refundable fare types but Business Select tickets have additional perks such as: Guaranteed A1-A15 boarding
Fly By lane access
Free premium drink
12 Rapid Rewards per dollar spent
Fully refundable fare
Note: If for some reason you fail to cancel your Senior Fare ticket and you become a no-show, things are much different. In that case, you’ll be issued something called Travel Funds (more on that below).
