International Flight Change Fees

Economy Light fares cannot be rebooked. Economy Classic fares and upwards can be rebooked plus possible fare differences. The originally paid ticket amount will be credited against the new ticket. In this case also a fare, tax, fees and charges differential might apply. The following conditions must be observed:

  • The original fare is still available
  • The flight sequence remains unchanged
  • Changes must be made before departure of original scheduled flight
  • Changes not permitted in case of no-show

Otherwise the fare will be recalculated and any fare, tax, fees and charges differential may apply. Flight change fees are subject to change and vary based on origin and destination.

For the SWISS care service for unaccompanied children, in addition to the price of the flight, a care service charge applies per route and per child (even in the case of siblings travelling together): CAD 230

For international flights, the Infant fare is 10% of the adult fare plus applicable fees.
