Conditions of Carriage -International Passenger and Baggage-

On some routes ANA offers our services together with other Carriers, placing ANA's designator code on flights operated by other Carriers under codeshare agreements.

For a codeshare flight operated by another Carrier, ANA will advise Passenger of the identity of the operating Carrier prior to the time of reservation.

Passengers traveling on a flight operated by another Carrier may be subject to terms and conditions of the operating Carrier that differ from those of ANA, including those regarding

(a) involuntary rerouting provided in paragraph (B) of Article 7

(b) check-in provided in Article 9

(c) refusal and limitation of carriage provided in paragraph (A) and (C) of Article 10

(d) restriction of acceptance as baggage, free baggage allowance and excess baggage charge and acceptance of animals provided in Article 11

(e) cancellations provided in sub-paragraph (2) of paragraph (B) of Article 12

(f) contingency plan for lengthy tarmac delays provided in paragraph (C) of Article 12.

ANA will not issue or exchange/reissue a Ticket unless the Passenger pays the applicable fare or charges, or complies with credit arrangements approved by ANA.

ANA will collect ticket service charges and exchange/reissue service charges at the time of Ticket issue or each time of Ticket exchange/reissue as a result of a Rerouting upon a Passenger's request pursuant to ANA's Regulations. Unless otherwise provided in any Applicable Laws, the service charges are non-refundable.

A passenger must present a valid Ticket duly issued in accordance with ANA's Regulations and containing the Flight Coupon for the flight which he/she is actually to board and all other unused Flight Coupons when he/she takes Carriage and the Itinerary/Receipt and the passenger's identification. A Passenger shall not be entitled to be carried if the Ticket presented by the Passenger falls within the scope of sub-paragraph (6) of paragraph (A) of Article 10.

A Ticket shall not be transferable. ANA shall not be liable to any person entitled to be carried or to receive a refund, for honouring or refunding a Ticket presented by any person other than the person so entitled. If a Ticket is in fact used by any person other than the person who is entitled to be carried, with or without such person's knowledge and consent, ANA shall not be liable for death of or injury to such unauthorised person or for loss, destruction or delay in arrival of, or damage to, such unauthorised person's Baggage or other personal property arising from or in connection with such unauthorised use.

When Validated, a Ticket shall be good for Carriage from the airport at the place of departure to the airport at the Destination via the route described in the Ticket, at the applicable class of service and for the period of time specified or referred to in the next succeeding sub-paragraph. Each Flight Coupon shall be good for Carriage on the date and flight for which a seat is reserved for the Passenger. If a Flight Coupon is issued on an "open date" basis, a seat will be reserved for the Passenger upon his/her application therefor, subject to the conditions of the applicable fare and the availability of the seat on the flight. The place and date of issue shall be shown on the valid Ticket.

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable fare rules, the period of validity of a Ticket shall be one year, if Carriage is commenced, after the date of commencement of Carriage (excluding the date of commencement of Carriage) or, if no portion of the Ticket is used, after the date of issue thereof (excluding the date of issue). If a Ticket involves a flight coupon to which any fare having a period of validity that is less than one year applies, such period shall apply only to such flight coupon.

The period of validity of an Electronic Miscellaneous Document shall be one year from the date of issue thereof. An Electronic Miscellaneous Document will not be honoured for a Ticket unless it is presented for a Ticket within one year from the date of issue thereof.

A Ticket shall expire at midnight on the date of expiration of the period of validity of the Ticket. Unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations, a travel pursuant to a Flight Coupon of a Ticket may continue beyond the date of expiration of the Ticket if such travel commences prior to midnight thereof.

An expired Ticket, Electronic Miscellaneous Document will be accepted for refund in accordance with Article 13.

If a Passenger is prevented from travelling within the period of validity of a Ticket because ANA:

(a) cancels the flight on which the Passenger holds a reservation;

(b) fails to operate a flight reasonably according to the schedule;

(c) omits a scheduled stop, being the Passenger's place of departure, Destination or Stopover point;

(d) causes the Passenger to miss a connection;

(e) substitutes a different class of service; or

(f) is unable to provide previously confirmed space;

ANA will, unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations, extend the period of validity of the Ticket, without additional collection of fare, to ANA's first flight on which a seat is available in the class of service for which the applicable fare is paid by the Passenger.

If a Passenger holding a Ticket of which the period of validity is one year is prevented from travelling within the period of validity because ANA is unable to provide a seat on the flight in the class of service for which the applicable fare is paid by the Passenger, ANA will extend the period of validity of the Ticket to ANA's first flight on which a seat is available in the class of service for which the applicable fare is paid when the Passenger requests reservation; provided that such extension shall not exceed 7 Days after the expiration date of the Ticket (excluding the expiration date).

(a) If a Passenger, after commencing his/her travel, is prevented from travelling within the period of validity of a Ticket by reason of his/her illness (but not pregnancy), ANA may, unless precluded by ANA's Regulations applicable to the fare paid by the Passenger, extend such period as follows:

(i) With respect to a Ticket of which the period of validity is one year, ANA may extend such period to the date on which the Passenger becomes fit to recommence his/her travel according to a valid medical certificate; provided that in case ANA is unable to provide the Passenger on such date with a seat in the class of service for which the applicable fare is paid by the Passenger, to ANA's first flight after such date from the point where the Passenger recommences his/her travel on which flight a seat is available in such class of service. If an unused Flight Coupon of the Ticket involves one or more Stopover points, ANA may, subject to ANA's Regulations, extend the period of validity of the Ticket for not more than 3 months after the date (excluding such date) on which the Passenger becomes fit to recommence his/her travel.

(ii) With respect to a Ticket of which the period of validity is less than one year, ANA may, unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations, extend such period to the date on which the Passenger becomes fit to recommences his/her travel according to a valid medical certificate; provided that in case ANA is unable to provide the Passenger on such date with a seat in the class of service for which the applicable fare is paid by the Passenger, to ANA's first flight after such date from the point where the Passenger recommences his/her travel on which flight a seat is available in such class of service (irrespective of any restrictive conditions applicable to the type of the fare paid), but in no case more than 7 Days after the date (excluding such date) on which the Passenger becomes fit to recommence his/her travel.

In the case of (i) or (ii) above, ANA may extend to the same extent the period of validity of Tickets of other members of the immediate family travelling with the Passenger.

(b) Nothing in the preceding (a) shall permit extension of the period of validity of a Ticket of a Passenger who fully recovers from an illness before such period expires.

In the event of death of a Passenger en route, ANA may amend or modify the Ticket of a person accompanying the Passenger by, among other things, waiving the minimum stay requirement or extending the period of validity. In the event of death in the immediate family of a Passenger after he/she commences his/her travel, ANA may, also with respect to the Tickets of the Passenger or his/her immediate family accompanying the Passenger, waive the minimum stay requirement or extend the period of validity. Any such amendment or modification shall be subject to ANA's receipt of a proper death certificate and any such extension shall not exceed 45 Days after the date of death of the Passenger (excluding the date of death).

ANA will honour Flight Coupons only in sequence from the place of departure indicated in the Ticket.

A Ticket shall not be valid and ANA will not honour the Ticket if a Flight Coupon for the first international sector is not used and the Passenger commences his/her travel at any Agreed Stopping Place.

Applicable fares shall be the fares which shall be published by ANA or its Authorised Agent or, if not so published, constructed in accordance with ANA's Regulations, which shall, unless otherwise provided in Applicable Laws, be in effect as of the date of issue and applicable on the date of commencement of the Carriage covered by the First Coupon of a Ticket. If the amount collected is not equivalent to the applicable fare, the difference shall be paid by the Passenger or, as the case may be, refunded by ANA.

Unless otherwise provided in these Conditions of Carriage or ANA's Regulations, fares entitle a Passenger to occupy one seat of the applicable class. Unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations or specifically approved by ANA, a Passenger shall be entitled to occupy one seat on board.

Under ANA's Regulations, conditions applicable to certain fares may limit or prohibit Rerouting. 

Upon a Passenger's request, ANA may effect a Rerouting with respect to an unused Ticket, Flight Coupon(s) if:
(a) ANA issues the Ticket;
(b) ANA is the original issuing Carrier indicated in the so-called "Original Issue" box of the Ticket;
(c) (i) ANA is the Carrier designated in the so-called "Carrier" box of the unused Flight Coupon of the first onward sector that the Rerouting is to commence,
(ii) ANA is the Carrier to whom such Flight Coupon, or
(iii) no Carrier is designated in the so-called "Carrier" box of such Flight Coupon;
provided that, if the Carrier issuing the Ticket is designated as a Carrier for any subsequent onward sector(s) and has an office of its own or of its general sales agent authorised to Endorse tickets on its behalf at the point on the routing either where the Rerouting is to commence or where a change in the Ticket is to be effected, such issuing Carrier's Endorsement shall be obtained at either of such points in any of the cases of the preceding (i), (ii) and (iii).

After Carriage commences, the following shall apply:

(a) additional Carriage at the through fare shall not be permitted unless a request therefor is made prior to the Passenger's arrival at the Destination indicated on the Ticket submitted to ANA for such additional Carriage;

(b) In the event that a new route of travel as after a Rerouting does not satisfy the conditions applicable to a round trip discount, a round trip discount shall not apply to those sectors already flown even if the relevant Ticket is issued on a basis of a round trip discount.

The fares and charges applicable after a Rerouting shall be those which, as of the date of issue, were intended to apply on the date of commencement of Carriage; provided that a Passenger whose Ticket is all unused, the fares and charges applicable after a Rerouting may be those applicable on the date on which the change is made and reflected on the Ticket pursuant to ANA's Regulations and applicable fare rules.

ANA will collect from a Passenger any difference between the fares and charges applicable as after a Rerouting and those originally paid by the Passenger or arrange for a refund, if any, to the Passenger in accordance with Article 13.

The date of expiration of any Ticket newly issued as a result of a change in a routing, Carrier(s), class of service or flight shall be that of the original Ticket provided that, if a Passenger, whose Ticket is all unused, requests Rerouting on unused Ticket, the date of expiration of a new Ticket shall be calculated from the date of issuing the Rerouting Ticket.

Time limits on cancellation, and charges for late cancellation, of a reserved seat shall also apply to a Rerouting to be effected upon a Passenger's request.

Unless otherwise provided in sub-paragraph (2) of paragraph (B) of Article 12, in the event that ANA cancels a flight, fails to operate a flight reasonably according to the schedule, fails to stop at a Passenger's Destination or Stopover point, is unable to provide a Passenger with his/her reserved seat of a flight or causes a Passenger to miss his/her connecting flight on which he/she holds a reservation, ANA will, at Passenger's option, follow either (a) or (b) bellow

(a) ANA will have the option of providing any of the following remedies:

(i) carry the Passenger on any other flight of ANA on which a seat is available;

(ii) either Endorse to any other Carrier the unused portion of the Ticket to request such Carrier to carry the Passenger or request other transportation service to carry the Passenger; or

(iii) effect a Rerouting and carry the Passenger, by any other flight of ANA or any other Carrier or by any other transportation services, to his/her Destination or Stopover point indicated in the Ticket or any applicable portion thereof.

(b) ANA will provide an involuntary refund in accordance with paragraph (C) of Article 13.

In the event that a Passenger misses an onward connecting flight of ANA on which the Passenger holds a reservation because a Carrier carrying the Passenger fails to operate its flight according to the schedule or changes the schedule of such flight, ANA shall not be liable for such missed connections

A Passenger with respect to whom a Rerouting is effected upon ANA's request shall be entitled to retain the free Baggage allowance applicable to the class of service the fare for which the Passenger originally paid. This provision shall also apply in the event that the Passenger is entitled to a fare refund because he/she is transferred from a class of service the fare for which the Passenger paid to a lower class of service.

A reservation shall be confirmed when recorded in ANA's reservation system as accepted.

ANA prohibits acts of reservations not intended for actual boarding.

Name Changes are not permitted once the reservation has been confirmed in ANA's reservation system.

Under ANA's Regulations, conditions applicable to certain fares may limit or prohibit change or cancellation of reservations.

A Passenger who holds an unused open-date Ticket or portion thereof, or who wishes to change his/her reservation to another shall not be entitled to any preferential right with respect to making a reservation.

ANA may, at its own discretion, cancel all of or a portion of Passenger's reservation if two or more seats are reserved for the same Passenger and if:

(b) same sectors on the date of which the day of travel are in proximity to each other are reserved;

(c) different sectors on the same date are reserved; or

ANA may cancel all of or a portion of Passenger's reservation which does not include necessary personal data by the time limit specified by ANA, in accordance with Applicable Laws of any countries concerned such as countries to be flown from, into or over.

If a Passenger fails to arrive at ANA's check-in counter or the boarding gate by the time indicated by ANA or is unable to depart because of improper or incomplete exit, entry or other necessary documentation required for his/her departure, ANA may cancel his/her reservation of a seat and will not delay the flight for the Passenger. ANA shall not be liable to the Passenger for any damage due to the Passenger's failure to comply with the provisions of this Article.

If the total weight of the Passengers boarding, and/or Baggage loaded in, an aircraft may exceed the maximum allowance weight with respect to the aircraft, ANA may, in accordance with ANA's Regulations, decide which Passengers and/or Baggage will be carried.

ANA will refuse to accept as Baggage:

A Passenger shall submit to any security check required by government or airport officials or by ANA, unless it is specifically deemed unnecessary by government or airport officials or by ANA.

ANA will inspect the contents of Passenger's Baggage by opening his/her Baggage and/or by using some device in the presence of the Passenger concerned or a third person, for the purpose of security (including but not limited to the prevention of unlawful acts of seizure, exercise of control or destruction of aircraft) and/or for any other reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ANA may inspect the Passenger's Baggage in his/her or a third person's absence to see whether he/she is in possession of, or his/her Baggage contains, any prohibited item referred to in sub-paragraph (1) of paragraph (A) of this Article.

Nothing contained in these Conditions of Carriage shall entitle a Passenger to have his/her Baggage checked on a flight for which a Carrier does not accept checking of Baggage.

Unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations or Applicable Laws, ANA will, upon presentation by a Passenger of a valid Ticket covering Carriage on the lines of ANA or on the lines of ANA and one or more other Carriers, accept as Checked Baggage the Baggage which is tendered by the Passenger at the office designated, and by the time prescribed, by ANA in respect of Carriage on the lines designated on the Ticket; provided that ANA will not accept as Checked Baggage the Baggage tendered for Carriage:

(a) beyond the Destination designated, or on any routing not designated, on the Ticket;

Upon delivery to ANA of Baggage to be checked, ANA will record in ANA's database the number of pieces and/or weight of the Checked Baggage and will issue a Baggage Identification Tag for each piece of the Checked Baggage.

If a piece of Checked Baggage of a Passenger has no name, initial or other personal identification, the Passenger shall affix such identification to the Baggage prior to ANA's acceptance of checking.

ANA will, to the reasonable extent possible, carry Checked Baggage of a Passenger coincidently with the Passenger on the aircraft which the Passenger boards; provided that, if ANA deems it difficult or impracticable, ANA may carry the Checked Baggage on any other flight in which such Baggage can be loaded within the maximum weight allowance or by any other transportation service.

ANA will accept Checked Baggage in excess of the following limits, only if a prior due notice of such article is given to, and a prior permission to such Carriage is granted by, ANA.

(a) the total of the greatest outside length, the greatest outside height and the greatest outside width (hereinafter referred to as the "sum of the three dimensions") of each piece shall not exceed 203 centimeters (80 inches), and the dimensions that can be stowed in a cargo compartment of the boarding flight;

(b) the weight of each piece shall not exceed 32 kilograms (70 pounds); and/or

(c) the total weight for all Checked Baggage shall not exceed 100 kilograms (220 pounds).

(c) the total dimensions shall not exceed 115 centimeters (45 inches) (not exceeding 100 centimeters (39 inches) in the case of the aircraft which has seating capacity of less than 100) and shall be of the size that can be stowed in an enclosed storage compartment in the cabin or under the seat in front of the Passenger.

ANA will permit a Passenger to carry into the cabin articles not suitable for Carriage in a cargo compartment (such as fragile musical instruments) only if a prior due notice of such article is given to, and a prior permission to such Carriage is granted by, ANA. Carriage of such Baggage shall be subject to a charge provided in ANA's Regulations.

The total free Baggage allowance of Checked Baggage of each Passenger is based on his/her individual fare rules. Each free baggage allowance is shown on the Itinerary/Receipt. In addition, a Passenger shall, unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations, receive a free Baggage allowance of Unchecked Baggage as described in sub-paragraph (1) of paragraph (D) of this article.

In the event that two or more Passengers traveling on the same flight check their Baggage at the same time to be carried by ANA to the same place, ANA may, upon those Passenger's request, provide them collectively with a free Baggage allowance equal to the aggregated individual free Baggage allowance in respect of number of pieces.

A fully collapsible stroller/pushchair, carrying basket and/or a car seat for Infants or children passenger's own use and a wheelchair and other similar assistive devices for disabled passenger's own use are accepted as Checked Baggage for free and are not included into the free Baggage allowance.

Baggage in excess of the free Baggage allowance set forth in sub-paragraph (1) of paragraph (E) of this Article shall be subject to the applicable excess Baggage charge provided in ANA's Regulations.

Unless ANA otherwise agrees in advance with a Passenger, ANA may carry the Passenger's Baggage which is in excess of the applicable free Baggage allowance on any other flight or by any other transportation service.

A Passenger may declare a value of Baggage in excess of the liability limitation of ANA pursuant to sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) of paragraph (B) of Article 18. In the event that such declaration is made, unless otherwise specified, Carriage of the Baggage to be performed by ANA shall be subject to a charge at the rate of U.S.$0.50 for each U.S.$100 or any fraction thereof as excess value charges with respect to such excess value; provided that a value of Baggage to be declared by one Passenger shall not exceed U.S.$2,500.

Unless otherwise provided in ANA's Regulations, a Passenger may pay excess value charges at the place of departure for a travel to the Destination; provided that, if a portion of the Carriage is performed by any other Carrier which apply different excess value charges from ANA, ANA may refuse to accept an excess value declaration with respect to such portion.

A Passenger shall claim and receive his/her Baggage as soon as reasonably possible after it becomes receivable at the Destination or Stopover point.

The bearer of the Baggage Identification Tag(s) issued to a Passenger when his/her Baggage is checked shall be exclusively entitled to accept delivery of the Baggage; provided that a Passenger who fails to present a Baggage Identification Tag(s) may accept delivery of the Baggage if the Baggage is identified by other means. ANA shall not be obligated to ascertain that the bearer of a Baggage Identification Tag(s) is truly entitled to accept delivery of the Baggage. ANA shall not be liable for any damage arising out of or in connection with its failure to so ascertain.

If a person claiming Baggage is unable to receive Baggage pursuant to the preceding sub-paragraph (2), ANA will deliver the Baggage to such person only if he/she establishes to ANA's satisfaction that he/she is duly entitled to receive the Baggage and if such person shall, upon ANA's request, provide ANA with adequate security to indemnify ANA from any loss and damage incurred by ANA in connection with such delivery.

ANA may, unless precluded by Applicable Laws and if time and other circumstances permit, deliver Checked Baggage to the bearer of a Baggage Identification Tag(s) at the place of departure or unscheduled stopping place if he/she requests such delivery. In delivering Baggage at the place of departure or unscheduled stopping place, ANA will not refund any charges paid for such Baggage.

Acceptance of delivery of Baggage by the bearer of and a Baggage Identification Tag(s) without his/her written complaint at the time of the delivery shall constitute prima facie evidence that the Baggage has been delivered in good condition and in accordance with the contract of Carriage.

Subject to ANA's Regulations and with ANA's prior consent, ANA will accept Carriage of animals such as dogs, cats, household birds and other pets if a Passenger puts those animals into a proper container and obtains valid health and vaccination certificates, entry permits and any other documents each required by any state or country to be flown into or over.

In the event that ANA accepts Carriage of an animal as Baggage of a Passenger, the animal shall, together with its container and food to be carried, not be included in the free Baggage allowance of the Passenger but shall constitute excess Baggage for which the Passenger shall pay a charge provided in ANA's Regulations.

Notwithstanding the preceding sub-paragraph (2), an assistance or service dog accompanying a Passenger with a disability to assist such Passenger together with a container and food will, subject to ANA's Regulations, be carried for free and are not included into the free Baggage allowance.

ANA will accept Carriage of an animal subject to the condition that a Passenger shall observe ANA's Regulations and shall be fully responsible for such animal. ANA shall not be liable for injury to, sickness or death of, such animal if and to the extent that such event resulted from the inherent nature of such animal.

ANA may, without prior notice, substitute any other Carrier or change an aircraft with respect to Carriage assumed by ANA.

ANA may, without prior notice, cancel, terminate, divert, postpone or delay any flight or the right to, or any reservation with respect to, any further Carriage thereafter or determine if any take-off or landing should be made, without any liability except to refund, in accordance with these Conditions of Carriage and ANA's Regulations, the fares and charges for any unused portion of the Ticket:

(a) because of any fact beyond ANA's control (including, but not limited to, Force Majeure such as meteorological conditions, acts of God, strikes, riots, civil commotions, embargoes, wars, hostilities, disturbances or unstable international relations) whether actual, threatened or reported or because of any delay, demand, condition, circumstances or requirement directly or indirectly relating to such fact;

(b) because of any fact not to be foreseen, anticipated or predicted;

(c) because of any Applicable Laws; or

(d) because of shortage of labour, fuel or facilities or labour problems of ANA or others.

If a Passenger refuses, notwithstanding ANA's request, to pay all or a portion of the fares demanded by ANA or the charges demanded or assessed by ANA with respect to his/her Baggage, ANA will cancel the Carriage, or the right to any further Carriage thereafter, of the Passenger and/or his/her Baggage, without being subject to any liability therefor except to refund, in accordance with these Conditions of Carriage and ANA's Regulations, any unused portion of the Ticket for which the Passenger fully paid the applicable fares and charges.

In the event that a Passenger fails to use his/her Ticket or a portion thereof for a reason provided in paragraph (C) or (D) of this Article, ANA will make a refund for such unused Ticket or portion in accordance with this Article and ANA's Regulations. The provisions of this Article applicable to a Ticket shall apply to an Electronic Miscellaneous Document.

Under ANA's Regulations, ANA will limit or refuse a refund for a Ticket subject to conditions applicable to certain fares.

Unless otherwise provided in this Paragraph, ANA will make a refund to the person named in a Ticket or, to the person who purchased the Ticket upon presentation to ANA of satisfactory evidence to prove that he/she is entitled by these Conditions of Carriage to such refund.

(a) If a person other than the Passenger named in a Ticket pays for the Ticket and designates a person to whom refund shall be made, ANA will indicate on the Ticket that there is a restriction on a person to whom refund shall be made and make a refund only to the designated person.

(b) A refund for a Ticket issued:

(i) pursuant to a Prepaid Ticket Advice will be made to the person paying ANA for such Advice;

(ii) under the Universal Air Travel Plan (UATP) will be made to the subscriber for whose UATP Card the Ticket is issued;

(iii) pursuant to a United States Government Transportation Request (GTR) will be made to the government agency issuing such GTR; and

(iv) for a commercial credit card will be made to the commercial credit company issuing such card.

ANA will make a refund only if all unused Flight Coupons and the itinerary/Receipt are surrendered to ANA.

Any refund made to a person presenting to ANA all unused Flight Coupons and the itinerary/Receipt and claiming a refund pursuant to sub-paragraph (1) or (2) of this paragraph shall be deemed a valid refund and shall discharge ANA from liability to make any further refund to the true person.

The term "Involuntary Refund means any refund made when a Passenger is prevented from using the Carriage provided for in his/her Ticket resulting from ANA cancels a flight, fails to operate a flight reasonably according to the schedule, fails to stop at a Passenger's Destination or Stopover point, fails to provide previously confirmed space, causes a Passenger to miss his/her connecting flight on which he/she holds a reservation or refuses to carry or removes a Passenger pursuant to any of sub-paragraphs (1) through (5) of paragraph (A) of Article 10, and the amount of the refund shall be:

(a) if no portion of the trip has been made, an amount equal to the fare paid; and

(b) if a portion of the trip has been made, the difference between the fare paid and the fare for the Carriage completed.

If a Passenger paying for a class of service is required by ANA to use a lower class of service, unless otherwise provided in Applicable Laws or ANA's Regulations, the amount of the refund shall be the fare calculated by multiplying the applicable fare for the sector (for a partial sector included in the through fare, the amount prorated by distance) by fixed rates as follows;

(a) From first class to business class: 50%

(b) From business class to premium economy: 40%

(c) From business class to economy class: 50%

(d) From premium economy to economy class: 30%

In the case of a codeshare flight operated by another Carrier, the terms and conditions of the operating Carrier will apply.

The term "Voluntary Refund" means any refund of a Ticket other than Involuntary Refund, and the amount of the refund shall be:

(a) if no portion of the trip has been made, an amount equal to the fare paid, less any prescribed fees provided in ANA's Regulations; and

(b) if a portion of the trip has been made, an amount equal to the difference between the fare paid and the fare applicable to the sector for which the Ticket has been used, less any prescribed fees provided in ANA's Regulations.

If a refund for any portion of a Ticket shall result in such Ticket having been used for a sector where Carriage is prohibited, the refund, if any, shall be determined in accordance with subparagraph (1) (b) of this paragraph as if such Ticket had been used beyond a point until which Carriage is prohibited.

ANA may refuse a refund for a Ticket which a Passenger presents to ANA or to government officials of a country as evidence of his/her intention to depart therefrom, unless the Passenger establishes to ANA's satisfaction that he/she has permission to remain in the country or that he/she will depart therefrom by other Carrier or other transportation service.

ANA will not make a refund for a Ticket of a Passenger in the event that Carriage of the Passenger is refused or he/she is removed in accordance with sub-paragraphs (6) through (8) of paragraph (A) of Article 10.

Hotel charges shall not be included in air fares.

In the case overnight accommodation is required in order to make a connection to another flight, ANA may cover hotel charges but at its sole discretion.

Upon a Passenger's request, ANA may arrange for a hotel reservation on his/her behalf but will not assure the reservation. Any and all expenses incurred by ANA or its agent in arranging or attempting to arrange for such reservation shall be borne by the Passenger.

(a) A Passenger shall present to ANA all exit, entry or other necessary documents required by Applicable Laws of country concerned such as countries to be flown from, into or over, and shall permit ANA, if ANA at its reasonable discretion deems it necessary, to make and retain copies thereof; provided that, even if a Passenger presents exit, entry or other necessary documents to ANA and ANA carry the Passenger, ANA shall not be deemed to guarantee that such documents comply with Applicable Laws.

(b) ANA reserves the right to refuse Carriage of any Passenger who does not comply in any respect with any of such Applicable Laws or whose exit, entry or other necessary documents are not complete in any respect.

ANA shall not be responsible for any loss or damage incurred by a Passenger, and the Passenger shall indemnify ANA for any loss or damage incurred by ANA, in connection with the Passenger's failure to comply with this Article. 

A Passenger shall pay the applicable fares, charges and expenses whenever ANA is required by any Applicable Laws to return the Passenger to his/her place of departure or elsewhere because the Passenger is not permitted to enter a country of transit or Destination. ANA may apply to the payment of such fares, charges and expenses any fares and/or charges paid by the Passenger to ANA for unused portion of the Ticket or any funds of the Passenger in the possession of ANA. ANA will not refund the fare collected for Carriage to the point of such refusal of entry or deportation. 

Carriage to be performed under a Ticket or under a Ticket and any Conjunction Ticket by two or more successive Carriers shall be regarded as a single operation.

Even if ANA is a Carrier issuing a Ticket or is designated as a Carrier for the first sector in a Ticket or in any Conjunction Ticket involving Carriage by successive Carriers, ANA shall not be responsible for any portion operated by other Carriers, unless otherwise provided in these Conditions of Carriage.

Each Carrier's liability to compensate for damage arising in connection with a Passenger's travel shall be governed by such Carrier's Conditions of Carriage.

Carriage performed by ANA shall be subject to the rules and limitations relating to liability established by the Convention as applicable to the Carriage unless such Carriage is International Carriage to which the Convention does not apply.

(a) Applicable Laws; and

(b) these Conditions of Carriage and ANA's Regulations, which may be inspected at any of ANA's business offices and its offices in any airport from which it operates regular services.

The full name of a Carrier and its abbreviation shall be as set forth in the Carrier's regulations and such name may be expressed in an abbreviated form on a Ticket. For the purpose of application of the Convention, a Carrier's address shall be the airport of departure indicated in the line of the Ticket on which the abbreviation of the Carrier's name first appears and the Agreed Stopping Places (which may be altered by the Carrier in case of necessity) shall be those places as defined in Article 1.

ANA shall not be liable for any Damage in respect of Unchecked Baggage not attributable to negligence of ANA. Assistance rendered to a Passenger by a representative, officer, employee or agent of ANA in loading, unloading or transshipping Unchecked Baggage shall be considered as gratuitous service to the Passenger.

ANA shall not be liable for any Damage directly or indirectly arising out of its compliance with any Applicable Laws, failure of a Passenger to comply with the same or any cause beyond ANA's control.

Where the Convention other than the Montreal Convention applies;

(a) ANA agrees in accordance with Article 22 (1) of the Convention that, as to all International Carriage performed by ANA and as defined in the Convention:

(i) ANA shall not apply the applicable limit of liability based on Article 22 (1) of the Convention in defense of any claim arising out of death of or, wounding or other bodily injury to, a Passenger within the meaning of Article 17 of the Convention. Except as provided in (ii) below, ANA will not waive any defense to such claim which is available under Article 20 (1) of the Convention or any other Applicable Laws.

(ii) ANA will not, with respect to any claim arising out of death of, or wounding or other bodily injury to, a Passenger within the meaning of Article 17 of the Convention, avail itself of any defense under Article 20 (1) of the Convention up to the sum of 128,821 SDR exclusive of the costs of the claim including attorney's fees which the court finds reasonable.

(b) Nothing herein shall be deemed to affect the right of ANA with regard to any claim brought by, on behalf of, or in respect of any person who has willfully caused Damage which resulted in death of, or wounding or other bodily injury to, a Passenger.

(a) In the case of Carriage subject to the Montreal Convention, ANA's liability for Baggage shall be limited to 1,288 SDR for each Passenger.

(b) Except as provided in the provisions of (a) above, ANA's liability shall be limited to 17 SDR (250 French Gold Francs) per kilogram in the case of Checked Baggage and 332 SDR (5,000 French Gold Francs) for each Passenger in the case of Unchecked Baggage.

(c) The limitation referred in (a) and (b) above does not apply if the Passenger shall have declared a higher value in advance and paid additional charges pursuant to paragraph (H) of Article 11. In that event, ANA's liability shall be limited to such higher declared value. In no case shall ANA's liability exceed the actual amount of Damage suffered by the Passenger. All claims shall be subject to proof by the Passenger of the amount of Damage.

In the case of Carriage of Checked Baggage from or to a point or points in the United States of America, Canada or any other country provided in ANA's Regulations, ANA's liability shall also be subject to the preceding sub-paragraph (4). In the case of such Carriage, the weight of each item of Checked Baggage shall be deemed not to exceed 32 kilograms (70 pounds) and, in case the sub-paragraph (4) (b) applies, ANA's liability shall, accordingly, be limited to 544 SDR (8,000 French Gold Francs), except in case ANA accepts Carriage of Checked Baggage with respect to which ANA enters into an agreement in advance concerning an item weighing above 32 kilograms (70 pounds) in accordance with sub-paragraph (6) of paragraph (C) of Article 11.

In case the subparagraph (4) (b) applies, in the event of delivery to a Passenger of a part but not all of his/her Checked Baggage or in the event of Damage with respect to a part but not all of such Baggage, ANA's liability with respect to the undelivered or the Damage portion shall be reduced proportionately on the basis of the weight of the Baggage, notwithstanding the value of any part of the Baggage or the contents thereof.

ANA shall not be liable for any Damage with respect to a Passenger's Baggage caused by the contents thereof. A Passenger whose property causes Damage to another Passenger's Baggage or the property of ANA shall indemnify ANA for all loss and expenses incurred by ANA as a result thereof.

ANA shall not be liable for any Damage to items which are included in a Passenger's Checked Baggage, if and to the extent that the damage resulted from the inherent defect, quality or vice of the item, irrespective of ANA's knowledge thereof.

ANA may refuse to accept any article which shall not constitute Baggage under these Conditions of Carriage; provided that, if the article is delivered to and received by ANA, it shall be subject to the Baggage valuation and limitation of liability set forth in these Conditions of Carriage and shall be subject to the rates and charges published by ANA.

ANA will issue a Ticket or accepts Checked Baggage for Carriage performed by any other Carrier only as an agent of such Carrier. ANA shall not be liable for any Damage which shall have occurred outside a sector the Carriage for which shall have been performed by ANA. ANA shall neither be liable for any Damage which shall have occurred to Checked Baggage outside a sector the Carriage for which shall have been performed by ANA, except where the Passenger shall be entitled by the Convention to claim such Damage against ANA in case ANA is the first or the last Carrier under the relevant contract of Carriage.

ANA shall not be liable in any event for any consequential or special damage or punitive damages arising from Carriage complying with these Conditions of Carriage and ANA's Regulations, whether or not ANA had knowledge that such damage might arise.

Any exclusion or limitation of liability of ANA under these Conditions of Carriage and ANA's Regulations shall also apply to any of ANA's representatives, officers, employees or agents performing their respective duties and to any person or entity whose aircraft is used by ANA for Carriage and any of its representatives, officers, employees or agents performing their respective duties.

such notice was not given due to fraud on the part of ANA; or

ANA had knowledge of the damage to the Passenger's Baggage.

These Conditions of Carriage shall come into effect as of February 9, 2024.
