Groome Transportation policy guide. Groome requires cancellation or changes by 11:59 p.m. the day before travel for its published refund/credit treatment: refundable fares can be refunded, while nonrefundable fares receive a one-year future-travel credit. Groome says a reservation must be canceled or changed by 11:59 p.m. the day before the travel date to receive the published refund/credit outcome. The official policy is most useful when it is matched to the customer’s own receipt, renewal date, reservation status or equipment record.
A refundable fare can receive a refund when canceled within the required timing. A refundable fare is canceled the afternoon before travel and is handled as a refund under the published timing rule. Keep the Groome reservation confirmation and fare type together so the timing and status can be reconstructed if Groome Transportation reviews the request.

Status-by-status guide
Timing point: Groome Transportation
Groome says a reservation must be canceled or changed by 11:59 p.m. the day before the travel date to receive the published refund/credit outcome. Treat it as a provider-specific condition rather than an industry-wide consumer rule. Refundable fare and nonrefundable fare are intentionally treated differently. In practice: A refundable fare is canceled the afternoon before travel and is handled as a refund under the published timing rule. Groome reservation confirmation: Preserve it until the next statement or final account screen confirms the change.
The nonrefundable-fare credit is valid for one year from the cancellation date, and travel must be rebooked by that expiration date even if the actual new trip occurs later. If an account screen and an older search result disagree, rely on the current official page and the transaction confirmation. Read that point beside the customer record before closing the issue.

Payment point: Groome Transportation

Same-day reservations are not eligible for credit if canceled, which makes the purchase time and travel date particularly important for last-minute bookings.

Service point: Groome Transportation
