If during your travel within, or to/from India , there is a flight cancellation or delay or denied boarding on a flight for which you hold a valid and confirmed reservation, you are entitled to certain rights in accordance with the Civil Aviation Requirements, Section 3 – Air Transport, Series ‘M”, Part IV, Issue 1, dated 6th August, 2010, effective 15th August, 2010, passed by the Director General of Civil Aviation. For your ready reference, we give below a summary of these rights. Full text of this CAR is available on http://dgca.nic.in/rules/car-ind.htm
Many a time, passengers who hold a confirmed & valid booking, do not or are unable to report (i.e. ‘No Show”) for travel before the time limit specified by the airline. In such cases, an airline is allowed to levy appropriate ‘No Show’ penalty under Rule 135 of the Aircraft Rules, 1937 and the same will be deducted from the fare paid by the guest.
To reduce the possibility of flight departing with unoccupied or empty seats, the airlines overbook flights to a limited extent. In such overbooking cases, an airline may have more guests reporting for a particular flight than the seats available on such flight and as such, may need to deny the boarding to some of the guests.
In the above event, before denying the boarding, Jet Airways would endeavour to first ask volunteers to give up their seats so as to make such seats available for other booked guests to travel on the flight. In return, Jet Airways, at its own discretion, would offer to the volunteer such benefits / facilities which, it may wish to offer.
In case you are denied boarding involuntarily on a flight for which you hold a confirmed reservation, you are entitled to the following monetary compensation: A] The monetary compensation indicated below shall be given only if the amount of ticket costs is higher than the compensation amount: a) Rs.2,000 or the value of the ticket whichever is less, for flights having a block time of up to and including one hour. b) Rs.3000 or the value of the ticket whichever is less, for flights having a block time of more than one hour and up to and including two hours. c) Rs.4000 or the value of the ticket whichever is less, for flights having a block time of more than two hours. If the cost of the ticket is less than the amount of compensation indicated above, you will be entitled to an amount equivalent to the ticket cost in addition to refund of air ticket. [Block time is the total time from the moment an aircraft first moves for the purpose of taking off until the moment it finally comes to rest at the end of the flight.] B] The above compensatory amounts will be given to you in the form of a MCO (Miscellaneous Charges Order), which can be encashed at any of our ticketing counters/offices. C] Additionally, you will be offered the choice between the following: a) Refund of air ticket at the price it was purchased. OR b) A flight to the first point of departure OR. c) Alternate transportation under comparable/alternate mode of transport (whenever applicable), to the final destination OR. d) Alternate transportation under comparable/alternate mode of transport (whenever applicable), to the final destination at a later date, at the passenger’s convenience, subject to availability of seats.

A] In case of flight cancellations, whenever possible, Jet Airways will endeavor to inform you through a telephone call or SMS, as far in advance as possible of the scheduled time of departure, provided at the time of creating your booking, you had given the relevant contact information e.g., working telephone number (landline or mobile) at the time of booking.

C] However, please note that, no financial compensation shall be payable to you, if you have not provided adequate contact information at the time of making your booking or when you are issued a ticket for firm travel on the selected flight. In such a case, Jet Airways will either refund to you the ticket price or make reasonable endeavour to make alternate travel arrangements as per your choice. If you elect to travel to your destination on an alternate flight, Jet Airways shall provide you with meals and refreshments in relation to the waiting time at the airport. D] Further, no such compensation shall be payable in the event : a) You do not accept the alternate travel arrangement made by Jet Airways; Or b) The cancellation occurs due to extraordinary circumstances beyond Jet Airways’ control (as described in paragraph nos.

Such extraordinary circumstances may in particular, occur due to political instability, natural disaster, civil war, insurrection or riot, flood, explosion, government regulation or order affecting the aircraft, strikes and labour disputes causing cessation, slowdown or interruption of work or any other factors that are beyond our control. B] Additionally, Jet Airways would also not be liable to pay any compensation in respect of cancellations and delays clearly attributable to Air Traffic Control (ATC), meteorological conditions, security risks, or any other causes that are beyond Jet Airways’ control but which affect Jet Airways’ ability to operate flights on schedule. Extraordinary circumstances should be deemed to exist where the impact of an air traffic management decision in relation to a particular aircraft or several aircraft on a particular day, gives rise to a long delay or delays, or an overnight delay, or the cancellation of one or more flights by that aircraft, and which would not be avoided even though all reasonable measures were taken to avoid or overcome the impact of the relevant factor and, thereby, the delays or cancellations are caused.

For such guest on a journey to from or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America., the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of certain carriers parties to such special contracts, for death of or personal injury to guests is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed U.S. $75,000 per guest, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For such guests traveling by a carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the carrier for death or personal injury to guests is limited in most cases to approximately U.S. $ 10,000 or U.S. $ 20,000.
The names of carriers parties to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of such carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by any limitation of the carrier's liability under the Warsaw Convention or such special contracts of carriage. For further information please consult your Airline or Insurance Company Representative.
