One of the key features of American Airlines\’ cancellation policy is its 24-hour risk-free cancellation period. This allows passengers to cancel their reservations within 24 hours of booking without incurring any cancellation fees, provided the booking was made at least 2 days (48 hours) prior to the scheduled departure. This policy applies to most tickets purchased directly from American Airlines and is particularly beneficial for passengers who need to adjust their plans shortly after booking or who have uncertainties about their travel dates.
