The same applies when claiming ticket fare reductions the passenger does not fulfill. The regulations of sentence 1 and 2 do not apply when the acquisition of a ticket or the verification of discount entitlement were omitted due to reasons beyond the passenger’s control. The increased ticket fare is reduced to an amount of € 7,00 (seven euro), if the passenger is able to present a valid ticket within a week of the determination date that has been purchased at any of the carrier’s points of sale prior to departure.
The carrier reserves the right to exclude animals from transport, especially due to following reasons:
Additionally pets are not allowed to be seated on seats. Dogs must be kept on a leash and be muzzled if instructed to do so by the staff or if required by law.
