Only fully unutilised tickets issued with cash or credit card payment will be considered.
Here is all you need to know to apply for nominating someone on your ticket:
• All tickets booked between March 20, 2020, and August 24, 2020, are eligible for transfer.
• These tickets will be valid till December 31, 2021.
• Only one free change is allowed. Customers will be charged for more than one change in date/flight/route/name.
• If travelling before August 24, no fees will be collected for changing dates or flights.
• If travelling after August 24, you will not be allowed to downsell the ticket, i.e. alternatives at a lower price, but if the flight is available on the same fare code, then the fare difference will be compensated.
• No compensation will be made if the booking code is higher than the existing one.
• No charge will be levied if the passenger wishes to adjust the new fare against the existing one.
• No differential fare refund will be permitted in case the new ticket fare is lower than the existing one.
