Need to Change a SWISS International Air Lines Itinerary?
SWISS provides rebooking for eligible tickets, but restrictions can apply. The ticket status, itinerary, fare conditions and requested new flight can affect whether a change is available and whether an additional fare amount applies.
If your SWISS ticket was booked through a travel agency, the ticketing source can affect who is able to service the booking. SWISS advises customers to contact their travel agent in relevant agency-booking situations. BookMyReservations can review servicing options for tickets we can handle and can also help compare a new reservation when the existing ticket cannot provide the itinerary you need.
Rebooking and Fare Difference
SWISS states that an additional amount may apply when the newly selected fare is more expensive because of a change in route, travel date or booking class. The applicable fare rules should be reviewed before confirming a change.
If the current ticket cannot provide a workable option, search available flights.
Ticket Exchange or Reissue
An eligible ticketed itinerary change may require the ticket to be recalculated, exchanged or reissued so the new flights and applicable fare are reflected correctly.
Business & First Class Changes
Premium-cabin itinerary changes remain subject to ticket rules and availability in the requested cabin and booking class. A new flight or travel date can change the fare.
For cabin-related options, see flight upgrades.
SWISS Tickets Purchased Through a Travel Agency
SWISS guidance directs or recommends travelers to contact their travel agency in a number of agency-booked rebooking, cancellation and refund situations. The ticketing source and booking circumstances can therefore affect who is able to service the reservation.
What Can Affect a SWISS Rebooking?
SWISS lists restrictions for online rebooking, including ticket and booking status requirements and itinerary limitations. Its rebooking guidance also states that a more expensive new fare can result in an additional charge. Availability and the applicable fare conditions should be checked before a change is confirmed.
Missed a SWISS Flight?
A missed flight can affect more than the sector that was missed. SWISS conditions state that if a passenger does not show up for a flight without notifying the airline in advance, return or onward reservations may be cancelled. Prompt review of the itinerary is therefore important.
See missed flight rebooking options or call (855) 666-8742 to review available options.
SWISS Cancellation and Refund Requests
Refund eligibility depends on the fare conditions and circumstances. SWISS states that, for eligible refunds, the value can be calculated according to fare conditions and flights already used. For agency-booked tickets, SWISS recommends contacting the travel agency.
For general assistance, review flight cancellation and refund options.
Partially Used SWISS Tickets
If one or more flights from a ticket have already been used, the refund or remaining-ticket calculation can differ from a completely unused ticket. SWISS states that in eligible cases the unused portion of the fare value, taxes and fees is calculated for refund.
See partially used ticket assistance.
Cancelled or Disrupted SWISS Flights
For short-notice cancellations or disruptions, SWISS says it may automatically rebook passengers and can offer alternative rebooking options. If a ticket was booked through a tour operator or travel agency, SWISS also says the traveler can contact that provider directly.
When a New Flight May Be Needed
An existing SWISS ticket change is not always available or practical. If the ticket cannot be serviced by BMR, the requested change is restricted, or the available rebooking does not meet your travel needs, a new reservation may need to be considered.
Search available flights or review last-minute flight options when travel is urgent.
Important: SWISS flight-change, rebooking, cancellation and refund options vary by fare rules, ticket status, availability, itinerary, market and issuing provider. BookMyReservations does not guarantee that every SWISS ticket can be changed, refunded or serviced. Applicable options and pricing should be reviewed before confirming a transaction.
Information to Have Ready
Have the passenger name, SWISS itinerary, travel dates, origin and destination, and booking or ticket information available. Also have your preferred new date, flight or cabin ready when possible. Do not send payment-card information by email.
