“Passengers with confirmed flights have the option to rebook prior to or within thirty days from their original flight date for as long as the new schedule falls within the ticket validity period. They also have the option to refund the full ticket cost, as refund charges are deemed waived,” it added.
The airline also said that it may cancel more flights as new information comes in on the flight movements of APEC leaders. (PNA / Azer N. Parrocha)
