How to plan for a situation like this other than buying one way tickets if claiming insurance is not an option? |

Jalsa:I didn't know we could use the canceled ticket to do this.
as long as they don't considered as no show, its all same. cancelled means you didn't travel as planned and airline is informed. It seems, Air India seems to be lot flexible in rebooking. So if same class is available, then you are fine with $150 per ticket. Srimanthudu - Audio review |

Musicfan:ince your tickets are with air India, if the date you look and the tickets are available in the same class you purchased, air India charges only $150. You can get this done on call or visit air India office in Hyderabad. The fare difference will be charged only when the class is not available. But since now the back to school season is over, you should easily get without additional fare difference
Yes, for 8/21 there was no fare difference. I didn't know we could use the canceled ticket to do this. As of today, there's no status update. Visa status shows date as of 9/10 |

Musicfan:u can always try, This ticket is still valid for travel until 1 year from the date you purchased the ticket. The travel should be before that. If you bought ticket on 24th July 2015, you travel has to be by 23rd july 2016,. If you decide that its not worth rebooking, you can claim refund and get full money back from insurance.
Will try this. Thanks again. |

Musicfan:Kayak/airlines will allow you to use the cancelled ticket for any future travel upto 1 year. but that will include rebook fee and fare difference. This is not worth.
oh is it possible? if that's the case provided i get my passport sometime next week, I can try this option and see if that comes out to be cheaper than new ticket. If we can claim insurance, then they should cover new date cost or no? |

since you get refund from insurance not from airlines, you will get full refund. Airlines will deduct cancellation fee and give the remaining amount, provided the ticket is refundable. Else you wont get anything. Kayak/airlines will allow you to use the cancelled ticket for any future travel upto 1 year. but that will include rebook fee and fare difference. This is not worth. So just cancel, claim refund thru insurance, get passport and then get a new ticket. I think this is what everyone in this DB feels. So just do it. Srimanthudu - Audio review |

Jalsa:
Cancellation of ticket is required for refund purposes also. Once you cancel you can claim refund. When you claim refund of the ticket from insurance you will get full money of the ticket value. For now just go ahead and cancel the ticket calling airlines or Kayak, whichever is faster.. Since you get full refund, get a new ticket after getting passport. That way you will avoid tension as everyone said here. Srimanthudu - Audio review |

Jalsa:He said cancellation will be $300 per head and will be deducted from the ticket fare that was already purchased. Rest of the amount for refund should be claimed by talking to the travel agent.
this is true...my friend used my credit card to purchase tickets to india and had to cancel because the houston embassy did not give them their passport in time.... 350$ dollars deduct chesi rest of the amount was debited to my CC...you wont paying be paying any money extra... so talk to the agent and see if you get the remaining money back...sometimes they dont give you citing some stupid reason |

Jalsa:cancel cheyakapothey no-show fee emi padaledhaa?
nothing happened as far as i remember...most people suggested that it was better to cancel and atleast inform the airlines...they said it was for security reasons or some other administrative purpose... I got frustrated because the airlines kept asking for an exact date to pospone the travel which made me pixxed off...basically they wanted me to pay some300$ charge for a certain date and I wasnt sure whether I would get the passport I dont think they give you any money for cancellation... I dont have any experience with travel insurance and how it works I would follow OTs advice Onlytruth:DO NOT REBOOK the tix yet, wait till u have passport " with you "...literally "With you"

I just talked to AI agent, please let me know if this is true. He said cancellation will be $300 per head and will be deducted from the ticket fare that was already purchased. Rest of the amount for refund should be claimed by talking to the travel agent. Idhi correct info ne ichaada vaaadu...if yes, no problem in canceling and will book only after i get my passport. Till now I was thinking this $300 will be charged to my credit card. |

Musicfan:Withoug passport, it is not recommended, but you can take a chance if you are fine with 150$ penalty per ticket. normally you wont get it on Friday if you didn't get an update today on DS-160. But its all US consulate. no one can predict.
bro, I have to re-book it or pay the no-show fee which is more than re-booking fee for now. and I checked fare for 9/21 a week past now. Are you suggesting to just cancel the ticket and pay 450$ per person penalty? |

Jalsa:Only thing is I'm worried about kid missing her therapy sessions...and re-registering at school
You can call school and let them know. That is not an issue at all. Or ask some one here to call the school. Its no big deal at all. Withoug passport, it is not recommended, but you can take a chance if you are fine with 150$ penalty per ticket. normally you wont get it on Friday if you didn't get an update today on DS-160. But its all US consulate. no one can predict. Srimanthudu - Audio review |

Musicfan:Options with you are cancel ticket to rebook on the same ticket thru airlines. Non-refundable tickets will not get any refund unless you have insurance or some critical issue like health and others which airlines will honor. However you can hold on to the ticket and rebook to save money. But if new ticket is cheaper than rebooking, better do that. First you will need to talk to airlines and let them know. If they take it as no show, then you cannot rebook even.
Yes, talked to them, the only option available is to postpone the ticket in the next 1 hour. otherwise, I will be charged 150$ penalty + 300$ no show fee per ticket. Re-book to 9/21 is same fare (ZERO fare difference) and 150$ penalty per person. idhi better option laaga undhi.. Only thing is I'm worried about kid missing her therapy sessions...and re-registering at school. but, it's not in my hands...oka vela ippudu rebook chesaaka repu passport vasthey malli one week gone ikkada... |

meedi different gaa undi, approved ani cheppinataruvata emi documents adagaru. Since they asked for 797copy, it is something like 221g, but technincally not. Normal gaa processing takes 2-3 businessdays to print and one day to send it to collections center or courier. With this additional request it should take additional week, but you never know as this not entitled to 14 day max period where you can talk to consulate at that time. Srimanthudu - Audio review |

ok, so i just have to forego this ticket for tomorrow and when i get my passport look for booking whatever date is convenient price/time wise. asalu ghoram proper status undakapovadam....anyway, my bad luck that i couldn't get sep 2 date for interview (it asked for second payment as i already rescheduled once). their processing is taking appropriate time i guess...3-7 business days. btw, once visa is issued, malli POE daggara em problem undadhu kadha for verification due to delay in status update across multiple systems? |
