Delta Air Lines Ticket Refund Will I receive a refund if I cancel my ticket? You are entitled to a refund or not; it depends on the type of Delta fare. If you cancel your Delta flight within 24 hours of booking, the airline will refund the full amount without deducting any fees or reservations made at least 48 hours before departure. According to Delta's cancellation policy, refundable tickets are not subject to cancellation fees. Refundable tickets can be changed or cancelled at any time without incurring additional costs.
