    What are your options for changes to your booking?

    If your flight is affected by cancellations or travel ban (from February 2 to September 15, 2020), you can:
     





    Convert to a Travel Voucher and get more value for your ticket.

    Equivalent to the unused net value and unused taxes of your ticket PLUS 10% of the unused net value. The unused net value refers to the unused base fare net of commission and other charges/fees. This benefit is available only among passengers who have not made previous changes to their booking. Initially valid for 1 year and can be extended for another year. Travel is subject to fare rules of the redeemed ticket. Requests must be made until November 30, 2020. Click here to know more.




    Rebook or Reroute your ticket.

    Unlimited (No rebooking fee)
    • For first rebooking: No fare difference (same cabin class, travel on or before November 30, 2020 or ticket validity, whichever comes first), applicable government taxes may be collected. Requests must be made until November 30, 2020.
    • For succeeding rebookings: Fare difference and taxes may be collected. Cancel at least 24 hours before your flight to avoid no show fee (fare rules and conditions must be based on the original booking class, travel completed until June 30, 2021, or ticket validity, whichever comes first).

    For rerouting, fare difference, taxes, and no show fee may be collected.




    Refund your ticket without penalties.

    When should you request for changes?

Requests for conversion to travel voucher must be made on or before November 30, 2020.

    If your flight is not affected by cancellations or travel ban (from July 1, 2020 onwards), and you’re opting for voluntary changes, rebook at least 7 days before flight departure to avail of the free rebooking, or at least 24 hours for refund requests to avoid no show fee. These apply for tickets issued until September 15, 2020.

    How can I refund my ticket?

    If your flight is affected by cancellations or travel ban (from February 2 to September 15, 2020), you are eligible for a refund without penalties. If your flight is not affected by cancellations or travel ban (from July 1 onwards), we’re also offering you the option to refund your ticket subject to fare rules. The refund may be subject to applicable penalties depending on the schedule, status, and issuance date of your ticket. 

    Due to the high volume of requests and limitations from the Enhanced Community Quarantine in the Philippines, there may be some delays in processing of refunds. We ask for your patience and understanding during this busy period.
