I thought Delta.com would be clearer about this but the pop-ups for explanations of refundable are contradictory and say things like "fares displayed are refundable. Certain restrictions apply." How can refundable have restrictions, and what are the restrictions?

So what fare classes are always fully refundable, B and Y and F? Or best to wait until right before departure so I am within the 24 hour cancellation window (or does that not work for one way tickets originating in Europe?)?

Also assuming that the Southwest benefit of no-penalty cancellation of points tickets would not work with Delta (for someone without status).
Why would dl.com be clear about how to commit a crime? You are both illegally entering the EU and buying a fraudulant ticket.
