I suppose there were the odd cases where your PNR was 11 months old and you literally had no space to push out the ticket, but those are fringe cases. For the majority, cancellation of any ticket within 2 hours has always been available for $180.
I see. Thanks. I had successfully book a trip online at 23:59 ET yesterday (!!). I was afraid I would have to pay 180$ if for some reason I needed a refund.
