๐Tips on How to Get Refund on a Non-Refundable Ticket
Question: BAKIT ang mga promo tickets or low cost ticket are non-refundable?
Answer: Ang dahilan bakit may non-refundable tickets is because para ang mga airlines ay makapag offer ng ticket sa mababang halaga kaya consider sya as perishable goods, and also kaya non-refundable ang promo tickets is because to cover the operational expenses ng airlines. Kung ang low cost ticket ay magiging refundable ang airlines na po ang malulugi dahil anytime pwede magcancel ang mga pasahero - in the end ang airlines hindi nila mamemeet yung number of passengers sa bawat isang flight. So dapat po be responsible po with your travel plans. The only option for non-refundable ticket is to rebook it on other date if you can't take the flight on your original booking date. But voluntary changes can cost you as well a penalties and fare difference because technically ika-cancel mo pa rin yung ticket mo.
Question: Eh papano kung nalate ako dahil sobrang traffic.
Answer: Regardless of the reason why you can't take a flight unless it's emergency then refund or cancellation is still not allowed on a non-refundable ticket. Hindi po kasalanan ng airlines or agent na nagbook sayo kung late ka dumating sa airport lalo na kung na-advise ka ng agent mo ng tamang oras na dapat nasa airport ka na. You are the sole responsible with your own travel. In terms with emergency reason refund is subject for approval pa rin ng airlines and you need to submit necessary proof.
