Swiss Airlines cancellation policy may vary based on your ticket type and time of cancellation. Here are a few points for your reference:

  • Economy Light is typically non-refundable and non-changeable (except within 24 hours of booking).
  • Economy Classic & Flex are refundable with possible fees; changes are allowed.
  • Business/First Class are totally refundable with no penalties.
  • Award Tickets can be canceled with miles redeposited (may involve a fee).
  • 24-Hour Rule applies where you can make free cancellations within 24 hours of making a reservation, if booked at least 7 days before departure.

Always verify your ticket’s rules in "My Bookings" on swiss.com before you proceed to be even more sure of the process
