I wanted to thank everyone for their information and suggestions and to let everyone know what happened. Basically, it became moot because my husband's health got worse and we have canceled the cruise. The good(?) news is that we should get 100% refund even with the standard protection policy. Maybe after the dust settles I will call EZ Air and find out what would have happened if I tried to cancel the first leg of the 2 flights.

I'm very sorry to have been confusing! To me, the flight into Seattle was inbound and the flight out of Seattle was outbound. Especially since they were not part of a round trip flight. I did not even realize there were specialized meanings, thank you for the explanation. You are correct, the two legs have different 3 digits (006 for Delta, 016 for United). That's helpful to know. My information comes from (1) how generally unhelpful EZ Air was when I inquired about changing flights - hypothetically - and (2) online chat with Princess today - you're right, I should take that with a grain of salt. They told me to call EZ Air tomorrow but also said it was a round trip and canceling one would cancel the other flight. Very discouraging. I can see where United might have no idea that I've missed the Delta flight. But EZ Air would know - and I guess they could cancel the United leg?

One more tidbit, while they are different cities and different airlines, apparently EZ Air considers them to be a round trip. Perhaps my best chance is to have someone at EZAir unlink them so one can be cancelled? Thank you to everyone for your thoughts...

The inbound flight is Redmond OR to Seattle so it's not a very expensive flight. It can be as low as $79.

The two flights are on different airlines, so I don't know why one would even know about the other (other than that they are both booked through EZ Air). The first leg is on Delta and I tried to cancel on the Delta site but they say it is booked through a 3rd party so I have to go to EZ Air to cancel. So is there anything we can do to avoid the cancellation of the United flight after the cruise? I just don't see why being unable to make one flight means they can cancel the other flight... We have the basic travel insurance with Princess, I don't think it covers airfare. And next time I will definitely pay closer attention to which credit card I use to pay with. It looks like we may have to fly into Redmond just to use this leg of the flight....

Hi, hope someone can ease my mind. We are sailing to Alaska from Seattle on Princess Discovery on August 10. We had a whole 3 week West Coast trip planned but health issues meant that we can only go on week 3 - the cruise. So we are now flying into Seattle from a different city than we booked on EZ Air. So I want to cancel that leg (I know it's non-refundable but is there also some kind of penalty? It's only $250 fare for both of us) but KEEP the cruise and KEEP the EZ Air flight back to our home city. I'm getting the sense from Princess (they say it's a "round trip" even though it's different cities and different airlines) that if we don't show for the inbound flight, they will cancel the outbound flight - and charge a 100% cancellation fee? can they do that?Apparently EZ Air is not available until tomorrow (Monday) but does anyone have any advice or insight here? Thank you!
