Any fee which will be charged for catering these services is non-refundable. TrekHops does not promise that you will get the same seat as requested. We give no guarantee that your special request will be entertained by a particular airline. That’s why we suggest users to get connected to the airline before the departure date to confirm these requests.

Please note that optional services and products are subject to the terms of use and availability of the airline. TrekHops strongly advised its users to go through the airline’s restrictions imposed on buying the optional services and products.

Schedule changes and flight cancelations

Flight cancelations

Cancelation of flight and schedule changes may occur due to-

• Fuel prices
• An airport gate or terminal change
• Civil unrest
• Bankruptcy
• Natural disasters like a volcano, hurricanes, earthquakes, etc.
• low/ high/ peak travel seasons

According to the policy, TrekHops shall not be held accountable for the missed, canceled, or not connecting flights owing to schedule changes by the airline.

Schedule changes policy

Policies associated with the schedule changes are different for different airlines and are beyond our control.

Any changes in the scheduled flight may occur because of the operational needs of each airline. The changes in arrival/departure dates, cancelations, routing, flight number, or time are often a prediction of travel requirements for a future date, but these can also show changes on the same day. Flight cancellation may occur when the airline temporarily cancels its services to some cities or stopped its services on some days of the week. If there is any change in the flight schedule, TrekHops will make every possible effort to inform you about the same. However, to confirm your flight, connect to the airline directly within 72 hours of departure.

Before departure

TrekHops will send you a notification via email if there is any change in the flight schedule within four hours of the flight time. We will also connect with you through other communication modes that you have provided at the time of making a booking, but if you haven’t received any call from us consider the email as the final notice.

For the changes happening within four hours, tickets will remain non-refundable. Some tickets may not be refundable even if the change is occurring after more than 4 hours. We are not answerable for any flight that is missed, canceled, or not connecting because of the schedule changes by the airline.

Departure date

If any user is already at the airport and now there is a change in flight schedule, then talk to the airline agent at the airline’s counter. Options may be limited due to severe weather conditions. Weather of the connecting city and your destination city may be different from that of the departure city, so keep yourself updated with the flight schedule, airport condition, and weather. It is the best idea to stay in touch with the airline on the day of departure to avoid such conditions.

Customer notification

Whenever we receive an update from the airline about the schedule change, we will send at least three emails and call at least once to inform you about the same. If you are unable to contact the airline or TrekHops prior to your departure, you may:

• lose the value of your ticket and possibly your travel can be postponed, and
• miss your flight

Customer responsibilities

As a customer, you have to reconfirm your flight within 24 to 72 hours prior to the scheduled departure. Keep checking your email to stay connected with the flight schedules and response in a timely manner.

Services offered

Once you contact us, we will connect to the airline on your behalf and provide you the best solution possible. Sometimes, the only way to solve this is to cancel the flight and refund the money.

TrekHops will try to get the airline in question to pre-protect our user. It only depends upon the involvement of the airline in your itinerary. We will request a refund on your behalf if the airline is not able to re-protect the traveler.

If the scheduled flight gets canceled, we will contact the airline, find the other flight options, or/and discuss the refund.
