How do I refund a ticket?

Open the order in My trips, choose Refund, review the penalty and confirm. The amount goes back to your wallet or IBAN.

When will I receive my refund?

Wallet refunds are instant; IBAN transfers take up to 72 working hours.

What is the difference between charter and scheduled flights?

Charter tickets are usually cheaper but non-refundable, with stricter change rules.

How early should I be at the airport?

Two hours before a domestic flight and three hours before an international one.

What is a private compartment?

Buying every berth in a compartment reserves it for you and your companions only.

Why can't I pick the seat next to someone?

A seat beside a passenger of another gender can only be taken by companions on the same booking.

What is a provisional rate?

The rate is provisional and becomes final once the hotel confirms; we will tell you before it is final if it changes.

Where can I see my visa application status?

In your account under My trips and on the application page; every status change is sent by SMS.

I was charged but no ticket was issued

The system retries issuing several times; if it still fails the full amount is returned to your wallet.

How do I change the site language?

Use the four language icons at the top of every page; your choice is saved to your account.
