Notification of the Lowest Fares
When a customer inquires about a fare or makes a reservation by calling our contact center, visiting our website, or speaking to a representative at one of our ticket counters, we will inform them that the lowest fare offered by us on a particular ticket may be available elsewhere if that is in fact the case.

Notification of Flight Delays, Cancellations, and Diversions
We will endeavor to notify ticketed passengers and the public if the status of a flight changes. A change in the flight’s status is a cancellation, diversion, or a delay of more than 30 minutes. We will notify passengers and the public of any flight status changes within 30 minutes of learning of the change through all means available to us (airport displays, gate announcements). If we become aware of additional changes to a flight’s status, we will notify passengers and the public within 30 minutes of learning of the additional change. We will also provide flight status information to passengers in the flight’s boarding gate area at a U.S. airport, on Arajet's website, and via our contact center upon inquiry by any person.
To the extent that flight status displays or other informational displays at the U.S. airport where the flight has been delayed, cancelled, or diverted, are controlled by us, we will use those displays to notify customers of the flight’s status change within 30 minutes of learning of the change. If the display system is airport-controlled, we will provide airport authorities with the necessary information within 30 minutes of learning of the change.
On-Time Delivery of Baggage
We will make every possible effort to ensure that your bags travel on the same flight as you. If your baggage does not arrive with you, you should file a Property Irregularity Report claim (PIR) prior to leaving the airport, as this will help us locate your baggage and also allow us to explain the baggage recovery process to you.
Should your baggage be mishandled, we will make every effort to promptly return your baggage. When your missing baggage is located, we will return it to you at your local address. If you have expenses because of such delays and are eligible to receive compensation under applicable treaties or Conventions, we will compensate you for reasonable and necessary expenses as required.
If you paid a fee to transport baggage and the baggage is subsequently lost or delayed by 15 hours or more, we will refund the fee you paid, as required by applicable law or regulation.
Allow Customers to Keep and/or Cancel Reservations for 24 Hours
When you make a reservation with us, we will either hold your reservation at the quoted fare without payment for 24 hours or allow you to cancel your reservation without penalty for 24 hours, so long as you make the reservation at least one week prior to the flight’s departure.
Prompt Ticket Refunds
Passengers must submit a request for a voluntary refund in order for us to begin processing. While we aim to process eligible refunds within the specified time frames, refunds can only be completed once we have received all necessary information from the passenger. Please note that some fares are non-refundable. In situations such as flight cancellations or oversold flights, we will, if required by law or regulation, refund fees for optional services that the passenger was unable to use.
For all eligible tickets purchased within the U.S. by a passenger using a credit card, we will provide refunds within seven (7) business days of receipt of all required refund information from the passenger. (It may take credit card refunds multiple billing cycles to appear on your credit card statement. Please contact your credit card company to ensure the refund was properly processed.) Tickets purchased with a check or cash will be refunded within 20 business days of our receipt of all required information from the passenger.
Refunds for electronic tickets can be obtained through our website at Submit a request – Arajet Helpdesk.

Proper Accommodation of Customers with Disabilities and Special Needs
We strive to provide our customers with disabilities and special needs the attention and service they require for their trip.
Some requests should be made before you get to the airport so we can plan ahead for your safe and comfortable travel. In accordance with our Conditions of Carriage, our staff may ask for proof or medical documentation, so we ask to please have them with you.
Every one of our passengers is important, including those with disabilities, medical conditions or other special needs, including:

Assistance animals/rescue/service dogs.
Customers with aisle wheelchairs.

Proper Accommodation of Customers’ Needs During Extraordinary Delays
In the event of a lengthy tarmac delay, our 'Contingency Plan for Lengthy Tarmac Delays' will be activated to ensure the needs of our passengers are promptly addressed throughout the delay.
This plan has been designed to reinforce our commitment to passenger safety and comfort, especially during delays caused by weather, air traffic control, government restrictions, or other unforeseen circumstances. A tarmac delay is defined as the period during which an aircraft remains on the ground with passengers on board, without allowing them to disembark. For departures, the delay begins once the aircraft's main door is closed (or the last door if multiple doors are used for boarding); for arrivals, it begins when the aircraft touches down.
Should a tarmac delay of four (4) hours or more occur, we will, if safety and security conditions permit, offer beverages, potable water, and a snack no later than two (2) hours after the delay starts. Additionally, we will provide operable lavatories and medical attention if necessary, during the delay, and keep you informed of developments during the delay.

Oversales
If a flight departing the U.S. is overbooked and more passengers with confirmed reservations are present at the gate for departure than can fit on the aircraft, our representatives will request volunteers to give up their seat. Volunteers will be compensated and booked on an upcoming flight. If enough passengers do not volunteer, we will be forced to deny boarding involuntarily in accordance with our boarding priority rules.
Boarding priority factors may include, but are not limited to, the following:
A passenger's time of check-in.
Whether a passenger has a seat assignment before reaching the departure gate for carriers that assign seats.
The fare paid by a passenger.
A passenger's frequent-flyer status; and
A passenger's disability or status as an unaccompanied minor.
We will treat passengers who are involuntarily “bumped” with fairness and consistency and in accordance with applicable DOT regulations. In most cases, passengers who are involuntarily denied boarding on covered flights are entitled to compensation under U.S. law. If you have questions or would like additional information on our overbooking policies and the compensation due to passengers who are involuntarily denied boarding, please review our Conditions of Carriage or speak to one of our Representatives.

Mitigation of Inconveniences that Result from Flight Cancellations and Diversions
When one of our flights is cancelled and you miss a connection, we offer various services to mitigate any inconvenience you may experience.
In the event of a cancellation or significant delay, we will do our best to reroute you on our next flight with available seats. If one of our flights is forced to divert, we will try to inform you before departure if a diversion is possible and if the decision to divert is made after takeoff, a member of our flight crew will inform you. If your flight diverted and subsequently cancelled, we will try to reroute you on another flight as soon as possible.
