Cancellation Policy

At Lastminutes Deals, we understand that travel plans can sometimes change. This Cancellation Policy explains the general terms that may apply when a customer requests cancellation of a flight booking or travel-related service.

Cancellation, refund, and change conditions may vary depending on the airline, fare type, route, booking conditions, and applicable laws.

1. Flight Cancellation

Customers may request cancellation of a flight booking by contacting the relevant support team.

However, whether a booking can be cancelled and whether a refund is available depends on the applicable airline and fare rules.

Some flight fares may be:

  • Fully refundable

  • Partially refundable

  • Refundable after applicable deductions

  • Non-refundable

Customers should review the fare conditions before completing their booking.

2. Cancellation Before Departure

If you need to cancel your flight before the scheduled departure time, please contact us as soon as possible.

The applicable cancellation conditions will depend on the airline and fare purchased.

Cancellation charges, airline penalties, service charges, or other applicable fees may be deducted from any eligible refund.

3. Cancellation After Departure

Bookings that are cancelled after the scheduled departure time, or where a passenger does not travel, may be treated as a no-show according to the applicable airline rules.

In such cases, the fare may be non-refundable or subject to additional restrictions and charges.

Customers should contact the relevant airline or booking support team as soon as possible if they are unable to travel.

4. Airline Cancellation

If an airline cancels a flight, significantly changes the schedule, or otherwise disrupts the itinerary, the options available to the passenger will depend on the airline’s applicable policies and relevant regulations.

Depending on the circumstances, available options may include:

  • Rebooking

  • Alternative travel arrangements

  • Credit or voucher, where offered

  • Refund, where applicable

The applicable airline will determine the available options based on its policies and the circumstances of the disruption.

5. Cancellation Charges

Cancellation charges may apply depending on the applicable booking conditions.

Potential charges may include:

  • Airline cancellation fees

  • Fare penalties

  • Service charges

  • Administrative fees

  • Non-refundable taxes or charges, where applicable

The exact amount, if any, will depend on the specific booking and applicable terms.

6. Refund Eligibility

A cancellation request does not automatically guarantee a refund.

Refund eligibility depends on factors such as:

  • Airline policy

  • Fare rules

  • Type of ticket

  • Time of cancellation

  • No-show status

  • Applicable taxes and fees

  • Other booking conditions

Where a refund is permitted, applicable deductions may be made before the refund is processed.

Please refer to our Refund Policy for additional information.

7. How to Request a Cancellation

To request cancellation, contact our team with the relevant booking information.

Please provide:

  • Passenger name

  • Booking reference or confirmation number

  • Flight details

  • Travel date

  • Reason for cancellation, if required

  • Contact information

Providing accurate booking details helps us process your request more efficiently.

8. Cancellation Request Processing

Cancellation requests are subject to verification and the applicable airline or travel provider’s rules.

Submitting a cancellation request does not mean that the booking has been cancelled immediately.

A cancellation should be considered completed only after confirmation has been provided.

Customers should continue to treat the booking as active until they receive confirmation of the cancellation.

9. Changes Instead of Cancellation

If your travel plans have changed but you still intend to travel, you may be able to modify your booking instead of cancelling it.

Depending on the applicable fare rules, changes may be possible for:

  • Travel date

  • Flight

  • Route

  • Passenger information, where permitted

Change fees, fare differences, and other charges may apply.

10. Non-Refundable Fares

Certain promotional, discounted, or restricted fares may be non-refundable.

Even where the base fare is non-refundable, some taxes or charges may be treated differently depending on the applicable airline rules and local regulations.

Customers should carefully review fare conditions before making a booking.

11. Special Circumstances

Certain circumstances may be subject to separate airline or regulatory policies.

These may include:

  • Medical emergencies

  • Serious personal circumstances

  • Government travel restrictions

  • Natural disasters

  • Major travel disruptions

  • Airline schedule changes

Supporting documentation may be required in some circumstances, and approval is subject to the applicable airline or provider.

12. No-Show Policy

If a passenger does not appear for a scheduled flight without cancelling or changing the booking within the applicable timeframe, the airline may classify the booking as a no-show.

A no-show may result in:

  • Loss of the ticket value

  • Additional charges

  • Cancellation of remaining flight segments

  • Limited or no refund eligibility

Customers should contact the relevant airline or booking support team before departure if they know they cannot travel.

13. Refund Processing After Cancellation

If a refund is approved, the time required to process and receive the refund may vary depending on:

  • Airline processing time

  • Payment method

  • Banking institution

  • Payment provider

  • Nature of the refund

Once a refund has been initiated, the time it takes to appear in the customer’s account may depend on the relevant financial institution or payment provider.

14. Customer Responsibility

Customers are responsible for checking their booking information and understanding the applicable cancellation and fare conditions before completing a purchase.

We recommend reviewing:

  • Cancellation rules

  • Refund conditions

  • Change fees

  • No-show conditions

  • Baggage rules

  • Other airline restrictions

15. Important Notice
