Schedule change policy

Updated March 17th, 2022

Normally we will operate our flight according to original time table, but sometimes we need to adjust the timetable for different reasons. These changes are normally made more than 14 days before scheduled time of departure and booking is updated with a TK, UN/TK or UN segment. 

Notification of schedule change

    • Booked in GDS: Notification will be sent on schedule change queue in your GDS.
    • Booked on WEB: Notification will be sent to the email address registered in the booking.

Additional information

    • When a schedule change is accepted/confirmed in GDS or per email/phone, the confirmation is binding and normal fare rules apply.
    • Schedule change is a change in departure time for a flight ahead of time and should not be mixed up with delays and irregularities close to departure where other rules apply. Contact Agent Support if you are not sure how to handle these changes.
    • Rebooking must be made before departure
    • TK elements should be confirmed (HK) or cancelled preferably 7 days before departure.
      Any TK nowshow-segments may result in an ADM.
