The Additional Service Agreement and the agreement for the services order by You with the respective Selected Carrier or any other third-party service provider are two separate legal contracts constituting the mutually independent relationships, and We do not bear any liability for the provision of the respective service. Please note that the Additional Services may also be subject to additional charges You will be obliged to pay, imposed by the Selected Carriers or any other third parties processing Your request for services brokered by Us within the provision of the Additional Services, and You will be acquainted with the amount of these additional charges prior to Your ultimate purchase of the respective Additional Service.

We will not charge You any extra costs in addition to the Full Price for the use of means of distance communication that We use in order to communicate, negotiate and enter into the Service Agreement with You, i.e. there are no service charges for Our communication with You via the internet or over the telephone, unless You use the extra-charged priority telephone line after You have been acquainted in a comprehensible manner with the specific amount of the call costs charged in this respect in addition to standard rates of Your phone provider.

      In either case, after We have been informed about the Flight Disruption according to Scenario A, We will at all times under a qualified event offer You the following solutions (as available), from which you may select one solely at Your discretion:
      1. We will search for alternate transportation to Your Destination. Should We find an alternate of the price not exceeding the price You paid for all the unused Flight(s), We may offer You (an) alternate Flight(s) or other means of transportation to Your Destination at no additional cost to You. We may also offer You the alternate of the price exceeding the price You paid for all the unused Flight(s) when the difference between the price of the offered alternate and the price of unused Flights must be paid by You, if selected. In case We are unable to provide You with the offered alternate Flight(s) or other means of transportation for You online, upon Our confirmation, You may purchase ticket(s) for alternate transportation to Your original final destination, as agreed upon by Us and You, at the airport or other place of transition and, at Our discretion, We may refund You the pre-agreed price of such ticket(s) up to the price You paid for all the unused Flight(s) under the conditions given in Art. 6. hereof. Please note that You are always obliged to contact Us and obtain Our confirmation before purchasing ticket(s) for the alternate transportation on Your own, otherwise You will not be entitled to the refund of its price hereunder.

      If You decide not to use any above-mentioned options offered to You under the Kiwi.com Guarantee, We may offer You (as the alternative to the Kiwi.com Guarantee) the provision of the Additional Services consisting in processing the cancellation of all the unused Flight(s) included in Your itinerary and refund requests for prices of these Flights with the Selected Carrier(s) due to the Flight Disruption - see Art. 4.1, Letter (iii) hereof. Please note that the specific terms of the Kiwi.com Ticket Fares shall not apply in this case.
      You are obliged to reply to Us promptly after receiving Our offered solution(s) under the Kiwi.com Guarantee, but in all cases within the reasonable time before the time of the scheduled departure of the first Flight of Your itinerary. Please note that Our offer may be changed due to the availability of the offered solutions. After the time of the scheduled departure of the first Flight of Your itinerary, if not accepted by You, this offer is null and void, thus You will not be entitled to the Kiwi.com Guarantee in this matter.

In case We are unable to buy the offered alternate Flight(s) or other means of transportation for You online, upon Our confirmation, You may purchase ticket(s) for alternate transportation to Your original final Destination, if agreed upon by Us and You, at the airport or train station and, at Our discretion, We may refund You the pre-agreed price of such ticket(s) under the conditions in Art 6. hereof. In case We are unable to find (a) reasonable alternate Flight(s) or other means of transportation due to a disproportionate price difference between the potential alternate transportation and the original price for the unused Flights, We may agree with You on Our proportional contribution to the costs associated with the mutually agreed alternate transportation. This option will be determined and agreed upon on a case-by-case basis. Please note that You are always obliged to contact Us and obtain Our confirmation before purchasing ticket(s) for the alternate transportation on Your own, otherwise You will not be entitled to the refund of its price hereunder.

      1. The purchased Flight tickets must be for a Flight offered to You by Us. If You make any changes to the schedule of the flying route booked through Us without Our assistance directly with the Selected or operating Carrier without Our previous approval and You encounter problems, the Kiwi.com Guarantee is null and void, and thus You will not be entitled to any remedy from Us;
      2. We must receive Your request for a refund of or a partial contribution to the price of alternate transportation purchased by You on Your own upon Our confirmation, in compliance with this Art. 5, within 14 days of the date when You were supposed to arrive at Your Destination according to the original Flight schedule;
      3. Along with the request for a refund, You must submit to Us an unequivocal and intelligible copy of the receipt of payment for the alternate Flight or other means of transportation and the ticket for the alternate Flight(s) or other means of transportation and at least one of these documents must contain intelligible Flight data (specifically the date and time of the Flight(s) and the place of departure and arrival) or data related to other means of transportation, price information and the passenger's name;
      4. Should You decide to opt for the reimbursement in Kiwi.com Credit or for the monetary refund, We will reimburse You at least the amount of the full or partial price which was originally paid for Your journey in the respective form under the conditions stipulated herein. In this case, if Your journey consists of more than one leg, and You have already used certain Flight(s), We will reimburse You the amount of the original price of the unused Flight(s). The eventual refund of the original purchase price paid for the respective Flight(s) obtained from the Selected Carrier(s) will be used and consumed by Us against the expenses spent on the selected option in relation to the provision of Our Kiwi.com Guarantee to You.
    2. Kiwi.com Guarantee – Exceptions. If You, after entering into the Service Agreement with Us:
      1. make any changes to the schedule of the purchased Flight(s) other than through Us; or
      2. make any changes within the contact details with any one of the Selected Carrier(s) in relation to Your Booking; or
      3. make any changes to Your No-Checked-Bag Itinerary (see Art. 1.2.21 hereof), in particular, You add baggage to Your itinerary or make any other changes to Your Flight(s); Our offer of the Kiwi.com Guarantee described in Art. 5 hereof will automatically expire and You shall have no claim whatsoever to the performance by Us of any of the Kiwi.com Guarantee services. This provision does not preclude You from buying (an) alternate Flight(s) in accordance with Art. 5.2 and/or Art. 5.3 hereof – if You do so in compliance with these Terms & Conditions, Our Kiwi.com Guarantee will remain valid and claimable. On the contrary, should You amend or alter the schedule of the original Flight(s) ordered in the Booking without first confirming with Our customer service department and seeking their approval, the Kiwi.com Guarantee will become invalid and We will be absolved of all responsibilities in case of any issue that may occur during Your journey.
    3. Limitation of the Kiwi.com Guarantee – Force Majeure. Please be informed that the Kiwi.com Guarantee does not apply to cases of Flight Disruptions caused by extraordinary circumstances which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Such circumstances may, in particular, occur in cases of political instability, meteorological conditions, governmental restrictions and recommendation incompatible with the operation of the flight concerned, security and health risks, unexpected transport safety shortcomings and strikes that affect the operation of an operating air carrier, significant limitation of airport(s), bus and train station(s) and/or other transition places operation, as well as bankruptcy, and/or insolvency or termination of 50% or more of all flights of the Selected Carrier or any other effect which significantly limits or disables the Selected or operating Carrier to provide its services (hereinafter referred as “Force Majeure”). Please note that in these cases We will make Our best effort to offer You (an) alternate Flight(s) and/or other alternate transportation for You in order to eliminate inconveniences that You may incur in relation to this matter. However, We have no obligation to provide You with the Kiwi.com Guarantee or otherwise cover the expenses for the alternate Flight(s) and/or other means of transportation for the Flight(s) affected by the effects of Force Majeure as well as other connecting Flight(s), which You were not able to use due to the effect of Force Majeure.
    4. Refund process and form of a refund. If You are, under these Terms & Conditions, entitled to receive a refund of the price You originally paid Us or another form of refund (including, but not limited to the Guaranteed amount of the refund), it will be refunded using the same payment method as the one You used to pay Us the Full Price (e.g. if you paid for the Booking via payment card, the refund shall be repaid to Your account associated with the respective payment card or if you paid for the Booking using the Kiwi.com Credit, the refund shall be accredited to You in a form of the Kiwi.com Credit under the Terms of Kiwi.com Credit as available here). In case you paid for Your Booking using multiple payment methods (e.g. the Kiwi.com Credit and in the remaining part of the Full Price the card payment) the refund shall be provided partially by both payment methods in a ratio corresponding to the ratio of the parts of the Full Price paid by the particular payment method originally (e.g. You paid the half of the Full Price for the Booking by Kiwi.com Credit and second half you paid by card, You are entitled to obtain the refund half-to-half in Kiwi.com Credit and refunding Your account associated with the respective payment card). This can take up to 10 working days; if this is not possible, the refund will be provided by a method mutually agreed between You and Us within 14 days after We reach such an agreement on the method of refund. It is pertinent to mention that We bear no responsibility in relation to the transfer of the funds to You, because We cannot in any way influence the transfer process of the monetary refund and such responsibility lies solely with the financial institutions responsible for remitting the transaction from Us to You. In case You are, under these Terms & Conditions, awarded by the Kiwi.com Credit, it shall be provided to You, under the conditions set herein and in the Terms of Kiwi.com Credit, in a respective form, without undue delay, but not later than 10 working days after Your submission of the legitimate request for this remedy or the consent with this form of remedy offered by Us, or the constitution of Your right for Kiwi.com Credit as agreed between You and Us (as applicable). Please note that if You accept Our offer for the Additional Services consisting of processing the cancellation of all Flight(s) included in Your itinerary and refund requests for prices of these Flights with the Selected Carrier(s) due to the Flight Disruption - see Art. 4.1, Letter (iii) hereof, You should consider that Flight(s) fares contain different elements and not all of them are refundable, so even when the requirements of the Selected Carrier for the refund are met, the refunded amount will not be the same as the Full price paid for the Booking.
    5. Assignment of the claims against the Selected Carrier(s). Upon Your application for Optional Services pursuant to the Kiwi.comGuarantee You assign all Your rights, titles and claims against the Selected Carriers arising in connection with the provision of Our Services based on Regulation (EC) No. 261/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 February 2004 establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or a long delay of flights, and repealing Regulation (EEC) No. 295/91 or Canadian Transportation Agency’s Air Passenger Protection Regulations (SOR/2019-150) or Turkish Regulation on the Rights of Passengers Traveling by Airline (SHY-PASSENGER) published in the Official Gazette dated 03/12/2011, No. 28131 or any similar applicable national or international act (law, ordinance, regulation, treaty, precedent etc.) legally substantialize any Your claim against the Selected Carrier(s) (hereinafter referred as the “Claim”) to Us, and You agree to provide Us, or Our authorized subcontractors, with all reasonably required assistance in order to enforce the Claims.

Please note that we waive the assignment of the Claim as specified herein in the extent to which You accept the offer for the provision of services consisting of an enforcement of the Claim (its part) by any third party, e.g., company AirHelp Germany GmbH, brokered by Us.
