What is Opodo?

Opodo made its debut as a British brand back in 2001 and quickly made a name for itself as a fast and reliable website to book a variety of different travel services. This success was immediately followed up by two more websites in the next 5 years. Today, Opodo offers a huge range of services and flights as well as holiday packages that allow customers to travel to the four corners of the world. In 2011, it became a part of the eDreams ODIGEO group along with four other major brands (eDreams, Travellink, GO Voyages and Liligo). The Opodo brand benefited from this association which brought a new level of service and quality to its customers. Today you can use Opodo to book flights, hotels, rent a car and select cruises, and you can contact their customer service team to get the latest deals and offers. Opodo first came together through a collaboration of nine different airlines. These companies were united with a goal to offer a new kind of travel service, one that would quickly and effectively enable travellers to customise their entire travel plan. Opodo's purpose has not changed over time: it still wishes to provide fun, efficiency and value for money to all its users.

When searching for your flights you’ll be able to see the notification of the free cancellation service and its time frame directly on the results page. If you cancel the booking within the allocated time, you will get a full refund of your ticket, including the service fees.

How do I know if my flight is refundable?

Refunds are subject to the conditions of the flight ticket you purchased – whether it is refundable or not – as well as to the airline – if they cancel the flight or you voluntarily do it. In case your ticket has been issued by IATA airlines, your tax refund will be managed by Opodo. If your ticket has been issued by non-IATA airlines or your payment has been processed directly by the airline, you should request the refund directly from the airline concerned. For more detailed information please read carefully the Opodo General Terms and Conditions as well as the General Airline Conditions when you plan your trip.

How long do airline refunds take?

According to the EU Regulation EC 261/2004, airlines are obliged to refund the full price of the ticket within 7 days in case of a cancelled flight. However, in the case of exceptional circumstances like the coronavirus pandemic or an airline bankruptcy, the refund authorization may take longer, from a few weeks to a few months. The EU regulation applies to passengers who fly within the EU and with an EU or non-EU airline, passengers who fly to EU from outside the EU and with an EU airline, passengers who fly from a EU country to a non-EU country with a EU or non-EU airline.
