      “I did not get my ticket”

      In some cases, ticket confirmation happens instantly. In others, it takes time. If the confirmation is not instant, some operators may confirm bookings only several days in advance, so if you booked months in advance confirmation may come later on.

      If you do not get any confirmation email after completing your booking, please do the following:

      • Check if your route has an “Instant” badge. If it does not, the confirmation will be made later
      • Check your spam folder
      • Check if you have received the payment confirmation to your email. If you have not, it is possible that the booking was not made at all
      • Check if you have provided the correct email address.
      • If you think you might have made a mistake in your email address, please open a support case.

      “How do I cancel my ticket?”

      To cancel your ticket, open a support case. Enter your booking number and email and click on “I want to cancel my ticket”. You’ll be offered an option to cancel the ticket if the cancellation is possible. Each operator has its own cancellation rules which are displayed during the booking process. Click on the “Cancellation” tab at checkout to see them.

      “Can I receive a refund for my ticket?”

      It depends on many factors. Some operators allow refunds, while others don’t. There is a deadline for refunds if they are possible. When making a booking, please check the cancellation rules for each operator/trip by clicking on the “Cancellation” tab during the checkout. 

      “How do I contact the support team?”

      To contact them directly, please open a support case by clicking here. You will be asked to fill out a form with your booking number and email address. You may also sign in to the booking portal and click “Call us online” to talk to a representative. Or send an e-mail to support@12go.asia.
