If you've booked a Hotwire Hot Rate, your reservations cannot be cancelled, refunded, changed, exchanged or transferred. Change fees are not an option. Credit cannot be given for any unused airline tickets. Once you make a booking on our site, your credit card will be charged for the total price shown -- regardless of whether the airline tickets are used. If our travel partners can be absolutely confident that the products they sell through Hotwire will be used in the exact way they were sold, they can offer deeply discounted airline tickets. See our Terms of Use if you have any other questions.
If you are booking our regular-rate, the airline may allow you to change your flights for a fee and any applicable fare difference. For information on changes and other restrictions, please refer to the fare rules by reviewing your reservation in your account. All tickets are nontransferable. Your ticket retains its full value for one year from the date of booking.
If you want to make a change to a regular-rate reservation, you must call Hotwire to prior to the first travel date on your itinerary-otherwise the airline will invalidate your ticket and it will hold no value for future travel. If you're in the U.S. you can reach us at 1-866-HOTWIRE. Outside the U.S. and Canada? Call 1-417-520-1680. Toll charges may apply.
If you are concerned about the possibility of emergency situations that would require you to change your plans, you may want to consider purchasing Trip Protection - a low-cost insurance program that provides trip cancellation/interruption coverage. See also: Trip Protection
