Did you cancel the flight?  You have to cancel the flight at least 10 min before departure to be able to get credit or for points to be refunded.

For a VERY LONG TIME the rule has been that if you no show a flight, you forfeit the value of your ticket. It's the same for every airline.

Points tickets used to be refundable in this instance but I believe that is changed as well.

 

The only exception is Business Select flights that would be automatically made into travel credits, other fare types will be forfeit - including any remaining legs of your same itinerary so if you no-show the outbound trip your return trip may also be affected.
