OVERBOOKED FLIGHT

Within the aviation industry, airlines overbook flights based on historic data which shows that sometimes passengers do not cancel their fights when they change their travel plans.

When the flight is overbooked, implying that the number of passengers exceeds the available seats, Fly Allways will first provide passengers the opportunity to voluntarily cancel their seat in return of compensation and assistance as described herein.

When there are insufficient or no volunteers, Fly Allways will proceed with denying passengers involuntarily. In the event of involuntarily-denied boarding, we will usually deny boarding based on check-in time.

Denied boarded passengers are entitled to compensation and assistance, on the express condition that they have presented themselves for the check-in procedures within the required time. Passengers denied due to health, safety, or, security reasons, or by customs are not qualified for aforementioned.

Compensation in case of denied boarding

A financial compensation of USD75.00 will be offered to passengers at the airport.

Assistance in case of denied boarding

Fly Allways will offer the passengers the following options:

     • Rerouting under comparable transport conditions, on the first available FAW flight, or
