How to Cancel Your Trip Reservation on SquadTrip

Travelers request cancellation from their trip page. Here is how to send the request and what happens next.

Overview

You cannot cancel a booking yourself. To cancel, you send a cancellation request to your trip organizer, who reviews it and decides. Your booking, your payment schedule and your access to the trip all stay exactly as they are until the organizer confirms the cancellation.

Sending a cancellation request

  1. Find your trip and click Details

  2. Click Request Cancel in the row of actions (on a phone this reads Request Cancellation)

  3. A window opens titled Send Cancellation Request

  4. The subject is filled in for you as "Cancellation Request" and cannot be edited

  5. Explain why you would like to cancel. A reason is required — the send button stays greyed out until you write one

  6. Click Send Cancellation Request

  7. You will see Cancellation Request Sent!

Your organizer receives your name, your email address, the trip name and your message. If they reply, it goes to the email address on your account.

Refunds

At the organizer's discretion, based on their refund policy

Nothing changes until your organizer cancels the booking on their side. If you need payments to stop in the meantime, say so in your message.

Why can't I cancel it myself?

Organizers handle refunds and payment plans case by case. Sending a request gives them the chance to talk through options with you — adjusting a payment plan, moving you to another date, or transferring your spot — before anything is cancelled.

Before you send

  • Read the cancellation and refund policy in the FAQ & Legal section on the trip page

  • Include any dates or details that help the organizer understand your situation

  • If you have not heard back, use Contact on the same page to follow up

Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

Can't find the Request Cancel button

Log in, open the trip, then click Details. It is the red button in the row of actions. If the booking is already cancelled you will see "This booking is canceled" instead.

Send button is greyed out

You need to enter a reason for cancelling.

The subject line won't let me type

That is expected. It is fixed as "Cancellation Request" so organizers can spot it.

I sent a request by mistake

Nothing has been cancelled. Use Contact on the same page to let your organizer know.

Looking for "Cancel My Booking"

That button has been replaced by Request Cancel. Travelers no longer cancel bookings directly.
