Refundable UK to Thailand airline for DTV application

Which airline offers refundable UK to Thailand ticket

Hello, I’m preparing my DTV application with an agency and I’ve been asked to upload my flight from UK to Thailand. They’ve told me not to use booking or anything 3rd party and instead book directly with the airline and to also get a refundable ticket. Does anyone recommend an airline I can book refundable ticket with?

Commenters suggest that most non-budget or major airlines provide refundable ticket options, with Turkish Airlines and Etihad mentioned. Advisory notes include potential long refund processing times and advice to use a credit card for quicker refunds.

Every non-budget airline has refundable tickets.

But be aware that the refund can take several weeks, so use a credit card if you need the cash back asap.
