Refundation Air ticket services (RATS) in case of Cancelled flight, Denied boarding, Missed connecting flight or Delayed flight.
If you or your relatives, friends, colleagues etc. are not satisfied with the outcome of the refund, i.e. that you
Airline has refused to pay you a refund in money and has instead offered you an unacceptable, unusable
voucher, you can contact us - we will take over your refund and arrange a proper refund according to the applicable
rules and regulations.
Airlines are currently offering matching amounts instead of cash refunds
In the form of a voucher. The vouchers offered have different rhetoric. They are not always equivalent to
of the amount paid, nor can the voucher always be redeemed according to the customer's needs, in particular
given the current situation developing in the field of travel of the COVID 19 pandemic.
customers who will accept a voucher for various reasons and there are those who will not. It is generally seen,
that the will and intention of the airlines is to delay as much as possible the dissolution of cash flow. It seems that
in the event of a disagreement between the passenger and the carrier, the only fair solution is to refund the money that
seems to remain a full obligation for all carriers. Acceptance of VOUCHER is voluntary
and the passenger has the right to a cash refund of the ticket price and to refuse the voucher.
What is the procedure for using the RATS service offered:
Ticket refunds must first be requested from the ticket issuer or directly from the carrier.
Currently, airlines offer an equivalent amount in the form of a refund instead of a refund
voucher. If you do not agree to the voucher offer, you must notify the carrier and ask for
explicitly ask the carrier to refund the amount to the bank account indicated. The carrier should, within 7 days
respond. If this does not happen, we can offer you the legal assistance of our cooperating
law firm under the following conditions:
Total price of tickets up to 5.000 CZK commission from successfully recovered refund
is 30% of the amount recovered
Total price of the tickets 5.000 CZK and the amount of the commission from the successfully recovered refund
is 20% of the amount recovered
If you wish to terminate the cooperation during the ongoing process,
the law firm will require a cancellation fee of CZK 2,500
It is your responsibility to inform the law firm promptly, but no later than
within 30 days if the carrier has paid the money into your bank account
during the pendency of the lawsuit, subject to a penalty of CZK 5,000.
Rules for reimbursement
in the event of cancellation, the airline must
offer passengers a choice between:
1. a refund of the purchase price of the ticket within seven days
2. re-routing under comparable traffic conditions
and at the earliest opportunity
3. re-routing under comparable traffic conditions to the final destination
destination at a later time at the passenger's request, subject to seat availability
The client pays the deductible only if we provide a refund
from the relevant airline.
Generally, the Law Firm will in the first instance ask the airline to reimburse your
reimbursement. If this is not paid within the time limit and if jurisdiction is given
Czech courts have jurisdiction to hear the case (the vast majority of cases), the airline will be sued
the airline. The length of the court proceedings depends on many factors (the speed of the judge, the speed of translation
the speed of the judge's translation, the length of service of the claim, whether the claim is brought by a minor, etc.)
and normally ranges from about 3 months to 1 year. Jurisdiction of Czech courts to hear the case is not
if the carrier is a non-EU carrier, the place of departure and arrival is completely outside the EU, and even
in the case of a connecting flight back to the EU, i.e., in such a case, the case cannot and will not be brought
legal action.
24/7 multilingual on-phone COVID-Assistance
There is a free 24/7 helpline where you can contact us in case of operational irregularities.
In case of operational irregularities, problems with ticket refunds or anything related to Covid-19.
The helpline is used to provide information on what you are entitled to in a specific situation under ECR 261/2004. Own
