Plans change. Maybe your dates moved, or you need to cancel. This guide explains how to change or refund a flight ticket in Pakistan, in simple words.

Prices here are ranges only. They are not fixed prices. Your final fare is confirmed on WhatsApp before you book.

First, Check Your Fare Rules

Every ticket has fare rules. Cheap tickets are often non-changeable and non-refundable. Flexible tickets cost more but allow changes and refunds. Before you do anything, check what your ticket allows — it is printed on your booking or e-ticket.

How to Change Your Flight Date

  1. Contact the airline or your travel agent — whoever booked the ticket.
  2. Ask for the change fee and the fare difference for the new date.
  3. Pay the fee and difference, and get a new e-ticket.
  4. Check the new flight details carefully.

Date changes are usually possible on most tickets, but the fee can be high on cheap fares. Changing early is cheaper than changing at the last minute.

How to Refund Your Ticket

  1. Contact the airline or your agent and ask for a refund.
  2. If the ticket is refundable, the refund goes to the original payment method.
  3. Refunds usually take 7 to 21 working days.
  4. Non-refundable tickets get no refund — but taxes may still be refundable. Ask.

Change and Refund Fees (Ranges)

Fees depend on the airline and the fare type. As a general range:

  • Date change fee: about PKR 5,000 to PKR 25,000, plus any fare difference.
  • Cancellation fee: about PKR 10,000 to PKR 30,000, or the ticket may be fully non-refundable.

These are ranges only. Your exact fee is in your ticket’s fare rules. We confirm it for you before any change.

Name Correction vs Name Change

A small spelling mistake can usually be corrected for free or a small fee. A full name change (a different person travelling) is usually not allowed — you may need to cancel and rebook. Always check the name on your ticket right after booking.

Tips to Avoid Losing Money

  • Buy flexible fares when your plans are unsure.
  • Check the name on your ticket immediately after booking.
  • Change early — fees rise as departure nears.
  • Keep your booking reference and e-ticket safe.
  • Ask your agent first — we handle changes and refunds for you.
