Emirates Airlines Cancellation & Refund

Emirates Airlines cancellation policy

Emirates Airline's cancellation and refund policy, updated as of 26 December 2024, offers clear guidance and support for passengers needing to cancel or request a refund.

Refundable Tickets

If you have purchased a refundable ticket, you can cancel your booking and receive a full refund minus any cancellation fees. The refund will be processed using the original method of payment.

Refund for delayed or canceled flights by Emirates

If your ticket is non-refundable, you will not be eligible for a refund, except in cases where Emirates cancels the flight. However, you can change your flight reservation for a fee or apply the value of your ticket toward a future trip.

Flight changes

If you need to change your Emirates flight, you can do so via Emirates Airlines Manage Booking. You may need to pay a change fee; any fare difference will apply.

Special circumstances

In case of illness or other emergencies, you can apply for a waiver of the cancellation fee, subject to Emirates reviewing your documentation.

Refund processing

Refund requests for canceled flights are processed according to the fare conditions of your ticket. Refunds are typically issued within 7-14 business days or longer for credit card payments and bank transfers.

Refund for delayed or cancelled flights by Emirates

If Emirates cancels your flight or there is a significant delay, you may be eligible for a full refund or a rebooking, depending on the situation. This can also apply if you decide not to travel due to a flight disruption.

How to request a refund

Refund requests can be made through Emirates Airlines Manage Booking or by contacting the Emirates Customer Service team. You will need to provide your booking reference and other necessary details.

Refund for non-used flights

You may be eligible for a partial refund if you haven't used part of your ticket (e.g., missed a connecting flight or unused segments). Contact Emirates for more information on how to proceed.

Emirates Airlines Missed Flight

• If you miss your Emirates flight, contact the airline immediately. Emirates may rebook you on the next available flight, depending on availability and ticket type.
• Rebooking fees may apply, and the airline's ticket conditions will determine your eligibility for a fee waiver.
• If the missed flight is due to an Emirates delay or error, you may be eligible for compensation or rebooking at no additional cost.
• You may need to pay a change fee or purchase a new ticket for non-refundable tickets.
