Travel Forum / Travel Types / Air Travel / March 2005Flight Cancellation
Hi I'm in Uk and have a flight booked to Ti land in June. I paid full amount already £750.00 and now need to cancell my holiday. I have been made aware that i may loose most or some of my money!!. Before I approach the flight bookers that I paid the money to, can anyone give me some information on how to go about it best? Is there a standard charge for cancellations? is it on a sliding scale on the notification of non travel to the date of departure. Is there discretion used with regards to reason for cancellation??. Thanks in advance Mike > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Mike First check your travel insurance and see if you can claim through them.

The first thing you need to do is read the T&Cs thst were sent with your ticket. > I'm in Uk and have a flight booked to Ti land in June.

If you do need to cancel, be honest about the reason and they may be able to help you. Check with your travel insurance company as well - as long as it's not disinclination to travel you should be covered at least partially. > Is there a standard charge for cancellations? is it on a sliding scale > on the notification of non travel to the date of departure. Not for scheduled flights, sometimes for charter flights. You haven't indicated the airline or the route, so we can't really comment. > Is there discretion used with regards to reason for cancellation??. Not usually. Cancellation is cancellation. The only discretion is that sometimes an airline may waive part/all of the cancellation fee if you're cancelling for the death/serious illness of a family member - and they'll need to see paperwork to prove it.

Generally the cheapest tickets do not allow any refunds at all, a mid priced ticket may allow it for say GBP50 whereas a full fare economy ticket will allow refunds with no penalties.

Early cancellation *might* lead to a lower cancellation fee. Regards, ULF >Hi > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >Mike I have no idea where Ti is and what the cancellation policies are in the UK or which carrier you are on. In the US, there are cancellation penalties of $50-100 but you get a voucher to use on another flight. |>Hi |> [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] |the UK or which carrier you are on.

This airline can probably get you there: http://www.thaiair.com/ Cheers, Alan, Australia |
