Refund eligibility depends on the type of booking and the policy of the service provider (airline, hotel, etc.). If the flight is refundable, you can request a refund through the "My Trips" section. Non-refundable tickets usually do not qualify for a refund but may allow for changes or credits. Refunds for hotel bookings depend on the hotel's cancellation policy. If you booked a non-refundable hotel room, you may not be able to get a refund, but you may be able to rebook. Vacation packages often have specific cancellation rules based on the components (flight, hotel, car rental). Expedia's customer service can help determine what is refundable. For requests related to refunds, contact Expedia customer service, and be ready to provide your booking details.
If your booking isn't showing up: Look for a confirmation email in your inbox or spam folder. Log into your Expedia account. Ensure you're logged in with the correct account, and check the "My Trips" section for your bookings. If you have your booking reference number, you can use it to find your reservation. If you're still having trouble, contact Expedia customer service for assistance in retrieving your reservation.
