Book a flexible ticket by upgrading to a rebookable ticket! The rebookable ticket is a Travelstart product that allows you to change your travel dates. You’re entitled to one FREE date change which should be made at least 24 hours before departure.
What does this all mean, you might ask? Well, it’s actually a flexible ticket that allows you to make changes to your flight dates beyond the usual restrictions of the airline. With our rebookable or flexible ticket, you are exempt from paying airline penalty and rebooking fees. In the event of a date change, you will only have to pay in the difference if the price of your rebooked ticket is higher that the original ticket.
What this means is that you can save yourself the frustration when your travel plans change and you have to pay an arm and a leg just to change your travels dates. However, with the flexibility to change your travel dates for whatever reason, you won't have to pay crazy date change fees, airlines penalties and service charges.
