Opodo's Refund Policy Explained

You are not entitled to a refund if you miss your flight. This is considered a no show and awards you no compensation. You may only receive a refund if you requested a cancellation in advance.

You may also not receive the refund you're expecting if you booked budget tickets. Most will state that they are non-refundable, so it's important that you always look at the fine print when you're making purchases. However, the airline will often offer alternative options, such as:

  • A voucher to be used on another flight
  • The ability to rebook your flight for another date

Opodo Refund Timeline

Generally, airlines are expected to issue refunds within seven days. However, those time frames have been extended in recent times. It can take up to several months before you see the money back in your account.

Also, Opodo may be who you booked through, but they are not an airline themselves. They may need to wait for the airline to issue the refund first before it can then be issued to you.

Where Will I See My Refund?

Your refund should return to the same payment method you used to purchase the ticket. If you do not see it within the correct time frame, you should first contact your bank before reaching out to Opodo again.
