Pray for a weather waiver?
When I called British airways, they refused to give me back the miles since it was within 24 hours. They insisted that I change the flight. So I did, and moved it out a week. And then I called to cancel, with no problems 😊
The worst part was waiting on hold for eternity 😩
Worked very well for me with AA last week, I called American Airlines telling them that it's forecasted to snow (last Monday) ,put me on hold and cancelled my ticket and redeposited my miles at no charge.And guess what, it didn't even snow. Although, Boston was hit pretty hard
