Your Refund Rights

Your Refund Rights

Air travel disruptions can happen. When they do, passengers may be entitled to refunds depending on the circumstances of their booking and applicable regulations.

RefundJet helps you understand and navigate that process.

Consumer Protection Framework

Passenger refund practices are guided by consumer protection principles and aviation regulations designed to promote fairness, transparency, and timely handling of eligible refund requests.

These frameworks encourage airlines to:

  • Provide clear fare rules
  • Communicate disruption impacts
  • Process eligible refunds within reasonable timelines
  • Maintain transparency throughout the refund process
When You May Be Eligible for a Refund

Eligibility depends on your ticket conditions and the nature of the disruption. Common scenarios include:

  • Flight cancellations by the airline
  • Significant schedule changes
  • Involuntary downgrades or denied boarding
  • Certain operational disruptions affecting travel completion
  • Under NCAA regulations, airlines may also offer care or re-routing options when a flight is cancelled. Refunds apply when you choose not to continue the journey.

Refund eligibility always remains subject to airline fare rules and specific circumstances.

Refund Timelines

Guidelines exist to support timely refund processing. However, timelines may vary based on:

  • Payment method used for the original booking
  • Airline internal procedures
  • Intermediary involvement (agents, travel platforms)
  • Complexity of the disruption

Passengers should expect communication and status visibility throughout the process.

What RefundJet Does

RefundJet does not replace airline decision-making. Instead, we provide structured support to help passengers:

  • Prepare complete refund documentation
  • Submit requests through appropriate airline channels
  • Track claim status
  • Understand next steps and timelines
  • Reduce delays caused by incomplete submissions

Our goal is to make the process clearer, more organized, and less stressful.

How Payments Work

When a refund is approved:

  • The airline pays the refund directly to the passenger
  • RefundJet does not receive or hold passenger refund funds
  • Our service fee applies only after a confirmed refund

This keeps the process transparent for all parties. A separate ₦50 bank mandate authorization charge applies during setup.

Transparency and Data Protection

RefundJet maintains:

  • Clear service disclosures
  • Consent logging
  • Secure handling of personal information
  • NDPR-aligned data practices
A Collaborative Approach

RefundJet is designed to complement existing airline processes by improving documentation quality and passenger understanding — helping both passengers and airlines manage refund workflows more efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions

▸Does RefundJet Collect The Payout?

No. Airlines pay eligible refunds or compensation directly to your account. We collect the agreed service fee after a successful payout.

▸Why Is A Mandate Required?

The mandate lets us debit the service fee after an airline payout. A separate, one-time ₦50 bank authorization charge applies to activate it.

▸How Long Does Approval Take?

Mandate verification may take a few days. You can always track the current status in your dashboard.

▸Do You Process Tickets Purchased Through Travel Agencies?

No. RefundJet currently supports only airline-issued tickets. If your ticket was purchased through a travel agency or third-party platform, please contact the agency directly for refund assistance. They remain responsible for managing refund requests on behalf of their customers.

▸What Bank Account Should I Use For Authorization?

The mandate authorization transfer (₦50) must come from the same bank account you selected during setup. Transfers made from a different account will not activate the mandate and cannot be refunded.

▸When Does My Claim Start Processing?

Your claim starts processing only after your direct debit mandate is active. These are two separate steps: first, your mandate must be authorized and activated, then we begin working with the airline on your behalf.

▸Can I Submit a Claim on Behalf of Another Passenger?

No, unless it is a group ticket. Claims may only be submitted by the actual passenger, except where the ticket is part of a group booking, the submitter is a member of that group, and all passengers are on the same flight and PNR. In such cases, the group lead may submit the claim on behalf of the team.
