You can find out more about what can be considered an emergency circumstance in our terms and conditions.
Why book Emirates refundable flights?
Did you know that booking non-refundable flight tickets can be more expensive than booking tickets that are refundable? When you cancel a non-refundable ticket, you'll be charged a cancellation fee and there'll be no guarantee of a refund.
This is why refundable flights can be cheaper as you'll be entitled to a full refund with only a small cancellation fee to pay. We recommend booking refundable Emirates tickets to avoid being disappointed should you need to cancel your flight.
You can receive a full refund for your Emirates flight if you cancel within 24 hours of making the booking.
