All these services are considered additional and are offered under different conditions according to each airline and at a differential cost. Please note that low-cost airlines usually operate in small, regional and/or secondary airports. Before confirming your purchase request, carefully review the conditions and rates that are informed for each case since some of the additional services must be booked and paid in advance. However, some others can be purchased during the flight, this is at the sole discretion of the airline.

Should any of the aforementioned modifications occur 24 hours prior to the departure time of the flight, by instructions of the service provider, the Agency will inform the available alternatives and will only proceed to confirm the modifications with its express prior confirmation or acceptance. Any claim or request related to the provision of the chosen service must be addressed to the airline, being the airline the one providing the transportation service.

The air tickets will be issued automatically with the information entered by the User in the Platform without any manual intervention by the Agency. Once issued the air ticket(s) and generated the electronic ticket registration, the airlines do not admit (or in certain cases admit with costs) changes of names or surnames on an air ticket, even in cases of typing errors in the names of passengers and / or names and surnames reversed. If the air ticket contains any error, the airline may not allow boarding. The Agency is not responsible for errors and/or inconsistencies in the personal data entered by Users on the Website.
