I had booked on the same booking 3 tickets (me and my parents) and when I tried to check them in (online) there was no way to do the check-in only for them, I had to check-in for all the passengers in that booking.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\">Also, I checked the refund policy and, as expected, I couldn&#8217;t get a refund.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\">My parents told me someone was seating at my seat on that flight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\">Is it allowed to not give refunds but sell a ticket for the same seat twice making twice the money? My mother probably told them when she was dropping her luggage that I wouldn&#8217;t fly but I am still surprised they could give my seat away without verifying with me (no emails or notifications in the app) just because a lady told them I wouldn&#8217;t fly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\">Has anything like that happened to anybody else? How likely do you think it is to get a refund?<\/p>\n<p class=\"_1qeIAgB0cPwnLhDF9XSiJM\">The flight was within the European Union by the way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, I tested positive for covid the day I was flying.
