United cancellation help explains how to cancel, who to contact and what refund or credit may apply. Whether you receive a refund, an United credit or nothing depends on the fare and the reason for cancellation.
If United cancels your flight, you may be able to request a refund instead of accepting a credit or rebooking. Read what you are offered before you accept.
Keep your confirmation number and written proof of cancellation. If you bought through a travel agency, the cancellation may need to go through them.
Refunds and credits are decided by the airline and the fare rules, not by Book a Flight. Fares labeled refundable and flights the airline cancels are treated differently from voluntary cancellations.
United operates major hubs including Chicago O'Hare, Denver, Houston Bush Intercontinental, Newark and San Francisco.

United cancellation help: can you guarantee an outcome?
No. United rules and your fare decide the outcome. Book a Flight is independent. Call +1-855-365-0395 for guidance.
Can I call Book a Flight about my United booking?
Yes. Call +1-855-365-0395 and we will explain your options. We are an independent service and not part of United.
Will I get a refund if I cancel?
It depends on your fare and the airline's rules. Refundable fares and airline-initiated cancellations are treated differently. We cannot guarantee a refund.
What is the difference between a refund and a travel credit?
A refund goes back to your payment method. A credit stays with the airline and may expire.
