      Frequently Asked Questions

      • Can I get denied bоarding cоmpensatiоn because оf оverbооking? What are my оther airline customer rights?

        In this case, you can expect to:

        • Recover the full price of the ticket within 7 days from the date of the incident
        • Get a ticket on the next flight to your final destination under similar terms.
        • Select a later flight under similar conditions.

        If you choose to travel on a different route and are required to wait, the carrier is required to provide you with free meals and drinks, access to two free calls, and let you use email or send a free fax. When you have to wait for a flight for one or more nights, you must be granted free accommodation in a hotel, including transport to/from the airport.
