8. Ticketing policies

Once You have completed Your booking via Book with KAYAK, You will receive an Order Confirmation from Us, either directly or through our third party customer service provider, to the email address You provided. This email serves as a proof that You have successfully made an order via Book with KAYAK and it reflects Your Passenger(s) details, Itinerary Details and Summary of Charges.

Please note that with the Order Confirmation we acknowledge that the order was received and it is processed by Us or by the third party. The Order Confirmation shall not serve in any case as an electronic ticket or a guarantee to board the plane. Once the payment is received and Your reservation is ticketed, You will receive a separate email with the e-ticket receipt.

The ability to cancel or modify a booked flight is restricted and will depend on the airline's fare rules or other terms and conditions. While some airlines may allow free cancellation within 24 hours after the ticket issuance, this possibility is limited for specific airfares and ticket types. If You wish to cancel Your reservation, please contact Our Customer Care representatives at 1-855-920-9942 and request the cancellation policy of Your ticket.

Changes to name details are restricted by many airlines, therefore in case any change is required, You should be aware that modifications are applied only allowed in accordance with the airline's policy. Most airlines treat a name change as a cancellation, to which standard conditions and charges would apply.

In case that You request any changes and/or modifications caused by a change in Your travel plans or Your personal circumstances (cancellation or modification), in addition to the terms and conditions of the airline company, Our processing fees will apply.

9. Refunds and cancellations

Voluntary cancellation by passengers

We understand that travel plans can often change. If You wish to cancel Your booking, depending on Your ticket policy, You may be eligible for a partial refund.

Ticket cancellation must be done at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled departure time. Passengers holding tickets that were not canceled prior to the departure, passengers who did not show up for the flight or did not board after the check-in process, might not be eligible for a refund.

Refunds must be requested only within the ticket validity period and are only possible if/should the fare rules of the purchased ticket permit it. If You purchased a discounted fare, this may be partially or completely non-refundable.

For partially used tickets, the refundable amount will be recalculated according to the unused sector and only if the airline policy allows. If there is no ticket value left, the unused tax (if any) will be refunded.

If Your ticket is not eligible for a refund, We will offer You alternative options according to the fare rules of your ticket (e-credit or exchange if available).

When refunding the ticket, additional flight services purchased from third parties (e.g. insurance, airport transfer) are not canceled automatically. To cancel these services, please request them directly from the third-party provider of the specific service.

Schedule changes and involuntary cancellation

If the airline company cancels a flight or fails to operate it according to the originally scheduled time, You will have the possibility to choose one of the offered alternatives for Your travel arrangements. We will ensure that You are notified of any significant changes once We become aware of them and We accept no liability for any changes or costs incurred that may result.

You will have the choice of accepting the change of timing or a new travel arrangement offered by the airline. If the changes are not acceptable, You might have the possibility to apply for a refund in accordance with the conditions of carriage. In case You are eligible for a refund, Our processing fee applies, as well as the deduction of non-refundable fees.

Applicable surcharges in case of cancellation

The ability to refund Your ticket is subject to the rules of the ticketed fare and specific terms and conditions of the airline company, therefore administrative fees and penalties may apply.

Our services are provided in full by Our agents. By services We mean processing any requests made by You to cancel, change or refund Your ticket. For these services offered by Our company via Our service center, social media, or all other channels, a processing fee of $100 applies. All penalties and fees are calculated per ticket.

Processing fee for customers holding tickets with a Support Package included will be charged in accordance with the type of Package purchased.

Administrative Fees, tips, and/or Support Packages are considered non-refundable charges. Also, any applicable airline penalty or cancellation fee is non-refundable by default and will be deducted from the amount to be returned to You.

We have no influence and therefore cannot be held liable for the outcome of the cancellation/change/refund process, which is the total discretion of the airlines. Nevertheless, the processing fee paid to process Your request, which is not the airline's fee to cancel/change/refund the ticket, is a service provided by Our company and cannot be returned.

Refund processing time

In most cases, the refundable amount will be credited back to the original method of payment; however, there are exceptional situations in which tickets will be refunded via alternative methods such as check or PayPal. We will issue refunds for eligible tickets within 20 business days for credit/debit card purchases, but please note that this does not include Your own bank processing time.

10. Additional service bundles

The service bundles offered along with the tickets, allow You additional flexibility in case of reservation changes or refunds, ticket cancellations within the day of purchase, and Price Drop Protection offers further price protection services, subject to the following terms:

• You can either choose to purchase a Standard plan or Plus plan service bundle.
• Reservation changes include, but are not limited to date change, routing change, name correction, seats reinstatement.
• Our regular processing fee when a reservation change is requested is $100.00. If a service bundle is acquired the processing fee is reduced to $25.00 with the Standard plan, and is completely removed with the Plus plan.
• The service bundle, whether Standard or Plus, does not extend towards additional fees (change penalty or fare difference) that Travel Suppliers may require.
• For ticket cancellation requested within 24 hours of booking, exclusively for US market tickets, KAYAK will charge a processing fee of $50.00 for the Basic plan. There are no fees for Standard and Plus plans. For similar requests outside of 24 hours of booking, or non-US markets, in addition to airline company fare rules, our processing fees apply.
• Price Drop Protection is a service offered in addition to the ticket which consists of KAYAK searching for your exact itinerary (flight numbers and travel dates, fare conditions) within 24 hours after Your booking in order to spot any price changes that can lead to additional savings on the ticket(s) You booked with KAYAK.
• If you acquired the Plus plan that includes Price Drop Protection, You authorize KAYAK, in case a lower price is found, to rebook Your itinerary and reissue Your ticket(s) by keeping the same itinerary. 50% of any savings obtained from rebooking Your itinerary under Price Drop Protection will be shared with You.
• The eligible cashback amount will be credited to You via the original form of payment.
• The Price Drop Protection is not available on all itineraries or all airlines and it does not serve as any sort of guarantee of savings. If within given 24 hours KAYAK is not able to spot price changes, the ticket(s) will remain as originally booked.
• Costs for Standard and Plus plans are non-refundable and shall be considered consumed once any of the given available options are exercised.

11. Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) Plan

The second package offered in addition to airline ticket cost is the KAYAK Cancel for Any Reason plan. It allows the customers to request ticket cancellation without any documentation and receive a partial refund under below terms:

• The cancellation request must be made with our Customer Care department via phone or ‘Contact us’ form at least 24 hours prior to Your first scheduled departure.
• The plan does not apply to tickets changed or canceled directly with the airline. In such cases the plan is to be considered no longer applicable.
• Within 24 hours of departure, the CFAR plan is not applicable and airline imposed fees will apply
• The Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) plan is non refundable
• The cancellation request applies for the whole booking. It can not be applied towards an individual flight segment.
• The plan does not offer coverage after the trip has started, including requests at the airport and/or at the point of destination.
• Once a valid cancellation request is received, the customer will be refunded the full cost of the ticket.
• The plan does not cover any additional purchases related to the ticket expenses (pre-selected seats, additional baggage, insurance packages, etc.). Such expenses will not be refunded.
• For this plan, the refund will be issued within 15 days from the day of the request. The refund money will be transferred to the original form of payment.
• The plan is considered used and non refundable in the case of full refunds being issued by the airline due to involuntary flight cancellation because of airline schedule changes, irregular operations or other Unforeseen Circumstances.

"Unforeseen circumstances" means any extraordinary event that can be described as any circumstance beyond the reasonable control of an airline. For example, but not as a limitation, hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, cyclones, thunderstorms, blizzards, volcanic eruptions, high winds, excessive precipitation, wildfires and other natural disorders, or civil disorder and unrest, political instability, quarantine, aircraft maintenance problems and security issues.

Any act or situation which is beyond Our control is known as a “Force Majeure” event. In such a circumstance, We are not liable for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of our obligations or contracts, for interruption of service directly or indirectly from acts of God.

No party will be held legally responsible for any losses or damages of nature incurred or suffered by that other party, as long as this failure or delay is the direct result of a Force Majeure event.

Any act, event, non-happening, omission or accident beyond Our control includes (but is not limited to):

• Strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action.
• Civil commotion, riot, invasion, cyber-attack, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war.
• Fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic, pandemic or other natural disasters.
• Impossibility of the use of railways, shipping, aircraft, motor transport or other means of public or private transport.
• Interruption or failure of utility service (including the inability to use public or private telecommunications networks).
• The acts, decrees, legislation, regulations or restrictions of any government.
• Other causes, beyond our reasonable control.

We will use our reasonable endeavors to minimize any delay or issues caused by Force Majeure or to find a solution by which our obligations under these Terms & Conditions may be performed despite the Force Majeure event.

In case of Force Majeure Event: Your reservation MUST be cancelled prior to the scheduled departure date or You risk forfeiture of the value of the tickets and no refund, rebooking or rerouting option may apply. Your entire tickets will be lost. If You’ve already submitted a request for a refund, take note that your refund may take a little longer than normal to complete due to the sheer number of travelers that may be impacted by the same Force Majeure Event.

We are committed to follow the established policy and try to prescribe an alternative resolution that will suit both sides. Travel Suppliers might offer waivers to cancel, postpone trips or provide a refund to the passengers that might be accessible in case a specific flight that was affected is canceled. If You request any changes and/or modifications caused by force majeure circumstances (e.g. cancellation or modification), in addition to the terms and conditions of the Travel Supplier, our processing fees will apply.

Types of travel services You may be able to select when booking:

Cancel/Credit:

Allows You to cancel now and book new travel at a later date once You are ready to travel again. New dates must be within the Travel Suppliers’s requirements, which usually consist of a rebooking deadline or travel-must-commence-by date. These are typically one (1) year after the date of purchase. This is the preferred and faster option as per the Travel Supplier’s rules and policies, as not all Travel Suppliers allow for a refund option.

Change:

Some Travel Suppliers will waive their penalty fees to allow You to book new flights. New travel services are subject to the Travel Supplier’s restrictions and fare difference. Changes are only allowed for unused travel services. When You request to change your travel service with Us, We will handle fulfilling Your request with the Travel Supplier on Your behalf.

Refund:

If You cannot change your travel services or dates, You may be entitled to a refund. Some Travel Suppliers allow some tickets to be refunded even if you purchased non-refundable tickets. Refunds are usually only available for unused travel services. When You request a refund with Us, We will cancel Your booking and will handle fulfilling Your request with the Travel Supplier on Your behalf.

We will provide refunds based on the circumstances of the case, and only when the following conditions are met:

1. (i) the Travel Supplier cancels or significantly changes a flight,
2. (ii) the Travel Supplier acknowledges that a consumer is entitled to a refund, and
3. (iii) passenger funds are possessed by KAYAK or KAYAK’s third party service provider.

If these conditions aren't met, KAYAK or its third party service provider will not make any refunds. In these cases, the obligation to provide a refund, according to DOT Enforcement Notices, belongs to the airlines, carriers or Travel Supplier.

IMPORTANT:

• Our Company services are provided in full by our third party service providers, by services we mean processing any requests made by the Customer to cancel, change the flight or refund requests, so for these services offered by Our Company a separate reduced fee will be charged.
• Our Company has no influence and therefore cannot be held liable for the outcome of the cancel/change/refund process, which is a total discretion of the Travel Supplier. Nevertheless, the fee paid to process your request, which is not the Travel Supplier's fee to cancel/change/refund the ticket, is a service provided by Our Company and cannot be returned or refunded to you, even if the outcome of the cancel/change/refund request is unsatisfactory to You.
