Most airlines that I'm familiar with all refunds (presuming the fare is in fact refundable) any time prior to departure. Are there specific airlines you've checked with that don't allow that?

Thank you! That's good to know. Will you get refund to the original form of payment or travel credit?

That's really going to depend on the airline and fare rules. The airline is the only one that will be able to answer that question with certainty.

And then the terms of the travel credit also vary from airline to airline. For example, Southwest just recently made it not have an expiration date, but many other airlines still have expiration dates for them.
