If you are more than 24 hours from departure, you have 24 hours to cancel. However if you have to get a human involved with the cancellation then it can get messy since interpretations seemingly vary. If you are under 24 hours to departure at the time of purchase, you have no cooling off period. If you bought the ticket the ticket more than 48 hours to departure you have the 24 hours to get a full refund as of right, and up until 24 hours to departures to get the GGL free cancellation. I assume there is more to this, since I'm sure you know this already?
