  • 9. Is a transfer always guaranteed?
    A transfer is not always guaranteed, but is usually included in airline tickets from one airport to another. However, there are certain factors that may affect whether a transfer will be possible: Delays - A delay in your first flight can significantly impact your ability to connect to your second flight. Despite airlines' best efforts, delays can make connecting flights impossible. Additionally, a delay to the second flight may also result in a missed connection to the next flight, especially if the time between flights is short. If you travel on one ticket, the airline should provide you with another available flight.

In some cases, the airline may be responsible for providing alternative connections, compensation or support for the missed connection. However, it is worth remembering that situations such as delays caused by weather conditions or force majeure may exclude the airline from liability. In any case, it is important to communicate calmly and professionally with the airline's customer service to find the best solution to the situation.
