Swiss Air Investigation (Dec 2025): Swiss Air is currently under investigation by AirlineComplaints.org for serious violations of passenger rights including but not limited to abandoning passengers at foreign airports; causing negligent delays that result in missed critical connections, particularly impacting travelers attending funerals; providing dishonest assurances through flight staff; failing to manage visa-related issues, leaving travelers stranded in untenable legal situations abroad; mishandling luggage containing essential medications; providing inadequate support for grieving passengers; refusing to offer readily available alternative flights; ineffective communication; causing emotional distress to affected passengers; poor coordination with partner airlines; systemic breakdowns in global phone-based customer support; technical failures on their lost luggage website; ignoring customer complaints; and breaching their fundamental duty of care to passengers.

Swiss Air Investigation Update (Feb 2026): Due to observed Swiss Air behavior, this investigation is escalating for additional serious violations of passenger rights including but not limited to issuing token and bad-faith refunds that bear no reasonable relation to the actual value of unused ticket segments; refusing to reimburse documented replacement transportation costs incurred as a direct result of their operational failures; misrepresenting nominal payments as meaningful refunds; failing to honor explicit written commitments to reimburse out-of-pocket expenses; forcing bereaved passengers to retrieve delayed baggage at their own expense despite being provided with a delivery address; shifting additional financial burdens onto passengers for fuel and transport required to recover mishandled luggage; attempting to substitute legally owed cash compensation with restrictive “goodwill” vouchers; implying that such vouchers constitute adequate settlement of unresolved claims; failing to provide transparent refund calculations or justification for nominal reimbursement amounts; and demonstrating bad-faith escalation handling through repetitive, non-authoritative, template-based responses that avoid substantive resolution.

We are expanding this investigation to the public and requesting feedback from Swiss Air customers here.

Etihad- Changing fligh dates of a non-refundable ticket

I booked two non-refundable tickets to Malaysia, Kuala Lampur, and two days ago , we found out that my wife is 4 weeks pregnant. After consulting the Doctor, the doctor advised us that travelling could be dangerous as my wife is still in here first trimister.

I tried calling Etihad Call center to change the flight dates, but they said that they cannot do anything about it. I offered to pay any partial penalties but still they claimed that those are the rules and they cannot do anything about it.

I respect the rules, but this is an urgent thing that popped up suddenely. I am wondering is there anything can be done?

I would like to hear your suggestions.. what can i do in this case?

Thanks
