Go First Ticket Cancellation Refund Process: Cash-strapped airline Go First’s announcement on Tuesday that its flights stand cancelled for threee days — May 3, 4 and 5, led to confusion among ticket-holders who had booked to travel on the airline. But the airline, which operates around 180-185 flights every day, has precious little to offer for ticket-holders looking to reschedule or for refunds. Although it did agree that the ticket-holders would eventually get their money back, it stopped short of giving a deadline as to when the passenegrs could expect a refund.
Amid uncertainties over its future course, Go First said it would provide a full refund of tickets. In its official communication with passengers and travel aggregators, the cash-strapped airline said that it would issue full refund through the “original mode of payment.” Meaning, those who paid for the tickets via credit card will see the refund reflecting in their credit card statement whenever it is processed, and those who paid through UPI and net banking, will receive the refund directly in their account.
In its communication, the airline stated:
“We regret to inform that due to operational reasons, Go First flights scheduled for 3rd, 4th and 5th May 2023 have been cancelled. We apologise for the inconvenience.
A full refund will be issued through the original mode of payment shortly.
We acknowledge the flight cancellations might have disrupted plans and we are committed to providing all the assistance we can. We thank you for your patience.
