Music News - Airlines come to the aid of U2 ticket holders

12 March 2006 - 0 Comments

There have been concerns raised by ticket buyers holding flight arrangements for the U2 Vertigo tour dates in Australia and New Zealand, which have now been postponed due to a family illness.

Michael Coppel Presents has been liaising with Air New Zealand, Qantas and Virgin Blue to assist U2 ticket holders holding airline bookings affected by the postponement.

All three airlines have willingly and graciously agreed to offer passengers holding U2 tickets a reprieve from the usual cancellation and change fees, as outlined below, and we thank them for their consideration in doing so.

Further information regarding the postponed concerts will be made available as soon as it comes to hand.

AIR NEW ZEALAND:

Passengers should contact Air New Zealand prior to the date of their flight in order to change their booking. Holders of non-refundable fares have the opportunity to transfer their fare to one of the same class once rescheduled concert dates are announced. Change-of-flight fees will be waived. Passengers may have to pay the additional costs if the same fare is not available.

QANTAS:

Passengers should contact Qantas by Monday March 13 to access waived fare conditions. Holders of non-refundable fares have two options – changes can be made free of charge with ticket value used towards any other QF flight on the domestic network or, the fare value can be stored in credit for use within 12 months of the date of the original ticket issue.

VIRGIN BLUE:

Passengers should contact Virgin Blue by Monday March 13 to access waived cancellation and change-of-flight fees on fares only booked within relevant dates for the U2 concerts. Passengers may have to pay the additional costs if the same fare is not available.

Passengers are advised to discuss fare options and terms and conditions with their airline or travel agent as soon as possible.
