You only can cancel your ticket, if the rules of the fare you purchased allow you to cancel the ticket. Usually the cheaper the ticket the more restrictive it is. Therefore super-economy fares do not allow tickets to be cancelled. Economy tickets allow one change, but it cannot be cancelled, and normal or base fares allow tickets to be cancelled with a 20% penalty.
