FOLLOWING THE POLISH GOVERNMENT'S DECISION TO EXTEND THE SUSPENSION OF AIR SERVICES UNTIL 9 MAY 2020 AND IN REFERENCE TO THE CLOSURE OF THE EU'S EXTERNAL BORDERS UNTIL 15 MAY 2020, LOT'S PASSENGER FLIGHTS SCHEDULED FOR 15 MAY 2020 HAVE BEEN CANCELLED.

In this difficult situation, the safety and comfort of our passengers come first. That is why we have introduced a new ticket exchange procedure, which allows passengers to flexibly change the date or route of their flight even in the next two years.

If you have a ticket for any flights operated by LOT Polish Airlines that have been cancelled due to the closure of air traffic in Poland, that were purchased:
- no later than on March 13th, 2020 for journeys between March 15th and March 28th, 2020,

- no later than on March 24th, 2020 for journeys between March 29th and April 11th, 2020

- no later than on April 9th, 2020 for journeys between April 12th and Arpil 26, 2020
or
- no later than on April 24th, 2020 for journeys between April 27th and May 15, 2020
you can take advantage of one of the following options to change your reservation flexibly:

1. USE THE VALUE OF YOUR TICKET AS A VOUCHER

Do you need more time to plan a new trip with LOT? You can contact us within up to a year of purchasing the original ticket and get a voucher. The value of the original ticket recorded on the voucher can be used for any flight from the LOT offer.

The voucher will be valid for one year (12 months) after receipt. During this time, you can exchange the voucher for a new flight, which is scheduled within the next 12 months.

If you would like to give the voucher to a relative or a friend? From now on, not only the passenger can use the voucher for any flight, but also the person to whom it will be given.

If the price of the new ticket for which you will exchange the voucher is lower, the difference is refunded as a new voucher, which is valid for 12 months from the date of issue.

What you need to do to exchange your ticket for a voucher:

• You can use the Ticket Change form – you will receive a confirmation of the exchange of your ticket for a voucher by e-mail;
• If you purchased your ticket through a travel agency, you can also exchange your ticket for a voucher through your travel agency;

If you choose this option, you will receive from us an additional code entitling you to a 30% discount* on your next LOT trip.The promotional code will be valid for one year (12 months) after receipt. The code can be used to book any flights offered on the LOT route network, in all travel classes.

You can also exchange your ticket for the cancelled flight for another ticket on a completely different route whenever convenient for you. If the new ticket is more expensive than the previously purchased one (e.g. a short flight to London will be exchanged for an intercontinental flight to Tokyo), we will deduct 200 PLN* from the price difference due.
