Customer Service & Contact

If you purchased your flight ticket from a travel agency (including online agencies), please contact your travel agency directly. Your travel agency is responsible for checking and processing any refunds due.

Any refunds due will be issued to the original form of payment in accordance with the terms and conditions of the type of fare purchased. Please note that some tickets are not refundable or carry a service fee that will be deducted from the refund amount. You can find out whether and under what conditions your ticket is refundable in your passenger receipt email under "fare conditions".

• Your flight booking will now be canceled, and you will receive an automatic confirmation email. If you purchased your ticket online, the refund will be made automatically, and no further action is required. For tickets booked via a travel agency, we ask that you contact them.
