Can I cancel my TUIfly flight?

Do you have a flight with TUIfly that you can no longer use? Plans change, we know. We help many travellers like you recover money from their non refundable flights every year. Read below to find out if you can cancel your ticket and get a refund or change the name and sell it to someone  else. 

Can I cancel my TUIfly flight and get a refund?

Yes, however, you will be charged a processing fee of €15 per person for each cancelled flight (CHF 21/GBP 13/USD 21/CZK 370/SEK 140). TUIfly’s Terms and Conditions state that the fee is €35, which contradicts the information given on their site - it will be one of the two, just bear that in mind. And you will not receive a full refund after the cancelation, just the passenger-related taxes and fees for the section of the flight you did not take. If you want to recover more money for your flight, you can transfer  your flight in the name of someone else to redeem some of your money from the unused flight. More information on name changes is below. 

If you have purchased a TUIfly holiday and you have flights are part of the package, the cancellation fees are different and can be found here.

Can I change the name on my TUIfly booking?

Yes! If you’re travelling with TUIfly, you can transfer your ticket to someone else. This means that you are able to get a refund for your flight by selling it to another person.

Short and mid-length flights

processing fee of €33 per person and route (CHF 50/CZK 870/GBP 29/SEK 340/USD 46)

International flights

processing fee of €60 per person and route (CHF 88/CZK 1,570/GBP 53/SEK 620/USD 84) 

Domestic German routes

In addition, if the current, alternative flight price is more expensive, any difference must be paid. However, if the fare is lower, a refund cannot be made. If a rebooking and a name change are made at the same time, the fees are doubled (one for the rebooking and one for the name change). Also, if you have a return flight, you have to change the name of both legs of the journey. It is not possible to fly with your name for the outbound flight and then change the name for the inbound flight.
