Air France Refund Rules: Cash vs. Credit (2025)

Updated: December 2025 | Verified by Flight Experts

The 30-Second Summary

Air France policies can be tricky. While most "Saver" or "Basic" fares are non-refundable, you are legally entitled to a **CASH refund** if the airline cancels your flight or changes the schedule significantly. Do not accept a voucher that expires! Call **1-844-656-7300** to claim your money.

1. The 24-Hour "Booking Loophole"

Regardless of the ticket type, you can often cancel for a full refund within 24 hours of purchase. If the Air France website hides the refund button, our agents can force it through. Call **1-844-656-7300** immediately.

2. Involuntary vs. Voluntary Cancellation

Know your rights under US Department of Transportation rules:

Scenario A: You Cancel (Voluntary)

You typically receive a **Flight Credit** or **Voucher**. These usually expire in 1 year and are non-transferable. Don't let them go to waste.

Scenario B: Manufacturer Cancels (Involuntary)

If Air France cancels your flight, you are entitled to a **100% Cash Refund** to your original payment method. Demand this option.

3. Hidden "Senior Fares" (65+)

Many airlines still file "Senior Fares" for specific routes that aren't advertised online. If you are over 65, call **1-844-656-7300** to search for these exclusive fare buckets.
