## How do I change my flight?

Change of plans? It happens! All flight changes start on Hopper. Hopper will use your airline and fare details to guide through changing or requesting to change your flight.  
  

If you booked a basic economy fare, or a fare that does not permit changes, your flight can't be changed by Hopper or the airline.   
  

Note: If your flight departs in less than 24 hours, contact the airline directly to make a change.

### To change your flight:

#### On the app:

1\. Tap **Help**

2\. Select the flight you'd like to change

3\. Tap **Change my flight**

4\. You will be prompted to contact the airline or to continue changing your flight on Hopper

5\. To continue changing your flight on Hopper, review the flight change policy on the **Change my Flight** screen

6\. Tap **Change dates** and/or **Change airports** to make your new selection(s)

7\. Review your changes and Important info section

8\. Depending on your booking, you will see the option to either **Request Changes** or **Search new flights**

#### **If you see Request Changes:**

### Change policies and fees

Depending on the fare you booked, the airline may charge fees to change your flight. Hopper must approve all changes with the airline before they are processed. 

### To review change policies:

#### On the app:

1\. Tap **Trips**

2\. Tap the flight you want to review

3\. On the **Trip Summary** screen, tap **Fare Details**

4\. Review the **Charges** section

#### On the web:

1\. Log in to your account

2\. Click your name, then click **My Trips**

3\. Click on the flight you want to review

4\. Click **View Details**

5\. Review **Fare Details**

### Cancel instead of change

If you've booked a refundable fare, you have the option to cancel and rebook your flight, instead of changing it.

If you made your booking within the last 24 hours or your booking status is pending, it may also still be possible to cancel free of charge. To see if you're eligible, start [canceling your flight](https://help.hopper.com/HyI_ItuKP) and review the details on the **Cancel My Trip** screen.

### Contacting the airline to cancel

If you are prompted to contact the airline to cancel your flight, they may ask for your confirmation number.  
  

If Hopper is processing your change request, please allow at least 24 hours for the support team to respond. Deciding to pursue changes directly with the airline within 24 hours of submitting your initial request to Hopper may result in the airline charging additional fees. Hopper is not responsible for an additional fees paid to the airline.
