Price adjustment on plane tickets?

Question

we purchased tickets for a trip in November last month for 500$, now the same flight is $330. Is it possible to get a price adjustment, is it even worth asking?

Answer 1

It certainly depends on the airline. If you bought a non-refundable ticket, then I'm not sure they will do anything for you. If you bought a refundable one, they may cancel your reservation and re-purchase the ticket at the new price or just provide you with a refund. I'd DEFINITELY call the airline. But these days with the way airlines are running, I wouldn't set my expectations too high.

Answer 2

i never heard that you can do it but call the airline where you purchase the ticket from

Answer 3

in my view it is not possible,suppose it would go hire side would you like to pay the difference even though you must talk to your airline

Answer 4

Actually, yes, it is...

In most cases, the airlines will charge a change fee, but if the difference in the amounts is more than that, why not.  Since the average change fee is $100, you would get $70 back as either a credit or a voucher for future flights.

Answer 5

It is possible, but far from a sure thing. It depends on what airline, what the fare basis was, and which way the airline's Long Term Strategic Planning is blowing this week. (That last part is a joke. Well, sort of.)

It's certainly worth asking. The worst they can do is laugh and say no... and in the best case, you get back some real money.
