What's an e-ticket?


An e–ticket (electronic ticket) is a paperless electronic document with a unique confirmation number that neatly replaces the hassles of a paper ticket. When you purchase an e–ticket, we email it to you within 30 minutes of your booking. Simply print it out and bring it with you – along with a valid photo ID – to the airline counter when checking in for your flight.

What are the different types of Flights? 


There are four types of flights:


Direct Flight- Just like its name, direct flights mean a flight between two points arranged by an airline without any change in flight numbers. There is a possibility that your flight may include one or more stops at some point. The passengers of direct flights may not leave their plane until their destination except for technical issues.


Indirect Flights-  Indirect flights provide more independence to travellers. With Indirect flights, you can avail yourself the chance to break the journey by not taking the whole way one time and can land anywhere in between. The transit destination in indirect flights depends on the airline you’re travelling with. Like connecting flights, indirect flights are also cheaper.


Connecting Flight- Connecting flights are the opposite of direct flights, as they need passengers to leave the plane to board a different aircraft to reach their desired destination. The major reason people choose connecting flights is that they are much cheaper than direct flights and non-stop flights. However, one should keep in mind the cost factor during connection while booking connecting flights.


Non-Stop Flight.-  Direct flights may include one or more stops but non-stop flights are continuous flights that behave exactly as they sound. Passengers will fly straight from one city to their desired destination with no stops along the way. 

 

What is the maximum number of seats I can book?

A Maximum of 9 seats can be booked at one time. If you need to book for more than 9 travellers you will have to–complete the booking process for the additional travellers.

How to claim a NO-SHOW refund?

Claiming a refund for a no-show (when you miss your flight) can be challenging, as most airlines have strict policies regarding no-shows, and refunds are not typically granted in such cases. However, there are a few steps you can take if you believe you have a legitimate reason for missing your flight and wish to request a NO-SHOW refund:

Review Your Ticket Terms and Conditions: Start by carefully reviewing the terms and conditions associated with your ticket. Pay attention to any specific policies related to no-shows, cancellations, and refunds. This information can usually be found on the airline's website or in the booking confirmation you received.

Contact Tripmaza service and support desk Immediately: As soon as you realise you will miss your flight, contact the Tripmaza service desk. Explain your situation and provide any relevant details, such as the reason for your no-show.

Document the Reason: If your no-show was due to circumstances beyond your control, such as a medical emergency or a flight delay on a previous segment, be prepared to provide documentation or evidence to support your claim. For example, if you were delayed due to a medical issue, provide a doctor's note or hospital records. It's important to note that airlines have different policies regarding no-shows, and refunds are rarely granted in these situations. 

The outcome of your refund request will depend on the airline's discretion and the specific circumstances of your case. Be prepared for the possibility that you may not receive a refund, and consider alternative options, such as rebooking your flight for a fee or with a fare difference, if available.



What is a Transit Visa and what are the policies applicable?

A transit visa is a type of visa that allows travellers to pass through or layover in a country for a limited period while en route to their final destination in another country. Transit visas are typically required when you need to change flights in a country and exit the international transit area of the airport. The policies and requirements for transit visas can vary widely depending on the country and the specific circumstances of your travel.

  • Purpose of Transit Visas: Transit visas are intended for travellers who have connecting flights in a foreign country and need to pass through immigration and customs to change planes. They are not designed for tourists or individuals planning to stay in the country for an extended period.

  • Transit Without Visa (TWOV): Some countries have agreements or policies that allow travellers to transit through their airports without a transit visa if the layover is relatively short. This is known as "Transit Without Visa" (TWOV) or "Transit Visa Exemption." The specific conditions for TWOV can vary.

  • To ensure a smooth transit experience, it's essential to research and understand the specific transit visa policies of the country where you'll be transiting through well in advance of your trip. You can usually find detailed information on the official website of the country's embassy or consulate and can also connect with Tripmaza for the same.


How can I make a special service request (wheelchair, special meal, pet transportation and other services)?

If you would like to request any special services on the flight you should contact the airline directly. Please note that some services might require an additional charge
