   Ticket Information

 
The following information is subject to change without notice.

See mytripandmore.com/baggage.aspx for updated airlines allowance and charges.

We recommend that you pack the carry-on bags with important items like medicines and valuables as well as a change of clothes and toiletries.

Notice-overbooking of flights:
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on the flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation> If the flight is overbooked, no one will denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for payment of the airline's choosing. If there are not enough volunteers, the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. Complete rules are available at the airline counter. Delays not caused by the airline are exempt from compensation.
Rules vary, so please check with airline in question.

Seat assignments:
We take proactive steps to accommodate your requests as best we can., however there are times when an airline can not accommodate your request due to an oversold flight. Most airlines do set aside a certain number of seats for 'airport check-in', so in the event you do not have a seat assigned prior to departure. please check at the airport.
The best way to avoid getting denied boarding is getting a seat even though the seat may not be the seat you prefer.

Traveling with infants and pets:
Advanced notice must be given. There are restriction on how many can be on board.
For pets, please contact the airline directly for more rules.

Children travelling alone:
Age and transfer requirements vary and most airlines will have a handling fee per child/transfer. Airlines have different age limits and an unaccompanied minor must be declared at booking.
Each airline only allow a certain number of unaccompanied minors per flight.

Mileage Credit:
To be assured of receiving correct mileage credit please present your card before each flight departure. Some discounted/consolidator tickets may not give mileage credit.

Please consult the airline or your travel agent prior to departure. In some cases when 'code share flights' are used mileage credit will be credited only on the 'validating carrier', if in fact miles are to be credited based on type of ticket purchased. If the name on your mileage does not match the name on your card, you will not receive miles.

We recommend that you keep all travel documents until you   received your mileage statement showing the credit miles.

Options for unused non refundable
tickets and date changes
:
Although there is no refund on a non refundable ticket, there are times when a completely unused ticket may be applied to future travel on the same airline for up to one year from date of issue, less a penalty.
Partially used tickets, travel is limited to the original itinerary and remaining value is calculated against the flown portions of the trip.
Change of cities flown can only be done on a fully unused ticket and then subject to the fares that apply at time of change.

Obtaining a refund:
All tickets should be returned to the original place of purchase and a airline penalty may apply.

Lost tickets:
You may be able to receive a refund on a lost ticket once a form is filled out and completely signed by each passenger. Each passenger must pay for a new ticket using the current eligible fare valid for travel on the original dates indicated on the original ticket(s). A airline fee will apply in all cases and there is usually a minimum of 6 months to receive the funds back from the replacement ticket less the fee of approximately USD75-150.00
