Do You Know About the 24 Hour Rule?

Just got back from San Francisco this morning so this post will be a short one.

I had a blast visiting San Francisco this past week and working with Ava. I learned so much and it’s great making content with a Pro!

So…ever book a trip and make a mistake?...

It’s happened to me and it’s the worst feeling. Still not as bad as watching people pay extra to check luggage on a Spirit flight. Don’t do it bruh! 🙅🏽‍♂️

Booking flights can be stressful AND if you don’t read my blog,... they can be expensive.💸 First off, you want to make sure the flight dates are correct. So, don’t rush! Secondly, a lot of people delay booking their flights because of the cost. But this isn’t always the best strategy and I have some tips to make this process less painful.

Most people don’t know this, but the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) allows you to cancel all flights booked within 24 hours.😲 AND it doesn’t matter if the flight is a nonrefundable ticket. This is the law!!

FYI: ALL AIRLINES MUST HONOR THIS RULE.

In order to conquer procrastination.. if there’s a trip I’m unsure about, I just book it! If I’m too anxious the next day, then maybe that’s an indication for me to cancel the trip before the 24-hour deadline is up. ⏰

Sometimes I forget about the deadline and end up going anyway. 🙃DON’T BE ME!

Make sure you cancel your flight within the allotted 24-hour time limit! I was once off by a couple of minutes and Frontier wouldn’t honor the deal...😣

Let me know if you end up using any of these tips!

Happy Flying Busy Travelers ✈️
