Cancellations
The process of cancelling a passenger is different depending on wether or not the passenger purchased trip protection. Here are instructions on how to cancel a passenger in either scenario.
Canceling A Passenger With Trip Protection
To cancel a passenger with Trip Protection, on the trip dashboard click on Passengers"in the left-hand column, or search for them in the search field at the top of the page using their first name, and last name, or email address. If you search by email address, make sure to include the @ symbol.
On the Passengers page, click on the passenger you need to cancel:
On the Passenger Party Details page, find the passenger's name at the bottom of the page, and click on Cancel.
Review the refunds that are due to the customer and confirm that they have opted into Trip Protection. You will see a statement on trip protection just beneath the section on payments and refunds.
