We live in a world where you can expect the unexpected, and anything can change in a minute! Now Imagine you have booked your flight and faced a situation where you had to miss your flight? If you are flying with Emirates then you are lucky, as Emirates announced an update to its ticket policy.
The new policy update makes the validity more generous for those who can’t fly on their scheduled dates. Emirates Airline now offers two options for those who can’t make their flight: Rebook to a new date or request a refund.
If your ticket issued before September 30, 2020 for travel before December 31, 2021, can now rebook to travel anytime within 36 months, which is an extension of 12 months from the previous policy.
Anyone holding tickets issued after October 1, 2020 for travel before December 31, 2021 can now utilize their tickets anytime within 24 months. Additionally, ticket fees will be waived and vouchers or unused portions of Emirates tickets can now be refunded without penalty.
To change your booking, you’ll need to give Emirates a call, If you booked your flights directly with them then your ticket validity will be extended automatically. Or if you booked through an agent, get in touch with them to extend your validity from 24 to 36 months.
And, if you choose to get a refund then you will need to fill a form where you’ll choose whether you’d like the money back in your account or as credit towards another flight.
You can request a refund even if your flight hasn’t been cancelled. However, a change fee and/or a difference in fare may apply if you choose to change the date or destination of your booking.
