Turkish Airlines + Lastminute.com Cancellation

ijihuh

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on how to deal with cancelling my flights (15 Jul - 12 Aug) bought from Lastminute.com for Turkish Airlines? How much am I supposed to get back? And can someone tell me their experience working with Lastminute or point me to a existing thread?

Thank you.

If you want to cancel flights then you just tell them you want to cancel but What I have learnt is If YOU cancel  in advance then you are not necessarily entitled to any refund; only what is stated in the t's and c's at time of booking (flights only don't usually give any refunds)   You would really need to wait until nearer the time to see what the state of play is then.   If the airline cancels the flight then you should be entitled to a refund (whether this would be cash or a voucher no idea) things changing daily so keep watching.

You might be able to move your flight dates, or take a voucher atm,  or at some point in time get a refund if flight is cancelled.

Lastminute   seems to want to charge a fee for refunds, but you can't get a copy of their T&Cs that state it, just some pop up.
Turkish airlines might have been an issue with refunds,  but that might have changed.
You will have to look if your ticket can be cancelled,  if not then  hopefully you can get a voucher or a date change.
If it's is cancelled then you would be due a cash refund.

What would be the minimum I am entitled to or does that all go away when I am the one to initiate the cancellation?

If you cancel, more than likely it's a non refundable ticket,  so are due no refund,  but you could try to get a voucher or move dates.
If they cancel  you are due a cash refund.

You’re better to wait for them to cancel your flight. My BA flight to Turkey (our 28/6, back 12/7) has just been cancelled so the dates are moving forward. 

In general, if you cancel then you won’t get a refund, but if the airline cancels then you should.

I would advise informing better about their regulations, I had some issues with the refund when I canceled my flight...
