Flight cancellations can happen for a variety of reasons, including weather conditions, technical issues, or operational decisions by the airline. While they are relatively rare, if your flight is canceled after booking, we are here to support you every step of the way.
In most cases, the moment we receive confirmation from the airline or supplier that your flight has been canceled, we will notify you right away. However, there can be rare situations where the airline has not yet informed us, and you may find out about the cancellation directly from the airline, either through their own communications or when you're already at the airport.
If the cancellation happens while you're at the airport, the best course of action is to go straight to the airline's check-in or customer service counter. Airline staff on-site are the only ones who can help you with immediate solutions such as rebooking you on the next available flight or providing temporary accommodations if necessary.
If you're notified before your travel date, or after the fact, our team will assist you in processing a refund or exploring alternative travel options, depending on what the airline offers. Please log in to your MyArea account using your order ID and booking email to view your status and submit any requests.
Please keep in mind that because Farera is an intermediary, any refunds for canceled flights must first be received from the airline before we can process them to you. We will keep you updated on the progress and process the refund to your original payment method as soon as we receive the funds.
Additionally, if your canceled flight was departing from, arriving in, or transiting through the European Union, you may be eligible for financial compensation under EU Regulation EC261. Compensation can be up to €600 per passenger depending on the flight distance and length of delay. You can file a claim directly with the airline, or use third-party services like AirHelp to manage it on your behalf.
While cancellations are never ideal, we're here to make the process as smooth as possible and ensure you're supported throughout.
