I was hoping to try again for my return flight but my account is still showing pending for yesterday’s flight (no other RU available on my account at present). Does anyone know how long it takes for RU to be refunded to your account when unsuccessful?
Welcome to your first FT post!

Usually 2-3 days to return an RU, but can be up to a week. Sometimes, you need to call or msg on WhatsApp.
