As travelling globally slows down due to the outbreak of coronavirus, various airlines have announced flexible rebooking options for passengers who wish to cancel or reschedule flights.
Emirates, Etihad Airways, and Air Arabia are the airlines which said that they will offer free cancellation and rebooking. Emirates said it will change booking fees for the passengers who decide to change their travel due to the virus outbreak. This is applicable for tickets issued between March 7-31.
“Customers can change their booking to any date, for travel within an 11-month date range in the same [cabin] class without penalties. Difference in fare, if applicable, applies. The policy covers all existing destinations across the Emirates network,” the airline said in a statement.
Adnan Kazim, chief commercial Officer of the Emirates Airline, said: "The situation remains dynamic and we will continue to look at ways to provide flexibility, convenience and peace of mind for our customers.
