What happens to the return leg if only one flight is canceled?

Ask the airline or seller to confirm the status of every remaining segment before accepting a partial refund. A change to one leg can affect linked reservations.

What to check

Pull up the ticket receipt and look for the seller, payment method, unused segments, and any voucher or replacement you accepted. Those details usually explain why a refund is delayed or reduced.

What to do next

Ask the ticket issuer for an itemized decision. If the seller sends you back to the airline, use the airline directory to check the official route.
