Article 3.4 Flight Coupon Order of Use

(a) The Fare including Tax established on the basis of the details, flight dates and routes mentioned on the Ticket corresponds to a departure and an arrival point, via any Stopover scheduled when the Ticket was purchased, and forms an integral part of the Contract of Carriage. The Fare applied on the Ticket issue date is only valid for a Ticket used fully and in the sequential order of Flight Coupons, for the specified journey and on the specified dates. (b) Except in case of Force Majeure, any non-compliant use by the Passenger (for example, if the Passenger does not use the first Coupon or if the Coupons are not used in the order in which they were issued) will result in the recalculation of the Fare including Tax according to the altered routing. The Fare including Tax will be recalculated and the Passenger may, as a consequence of the recalculation, be required to pay an additional Fare equating to the difference between the Fare Including Tax initially paid and the Fare Including Tax that the Passenger should have paid when the Ticket was issued for the journey actually made by the Passenger. In addition, in the event of a change as described above, a new Ticket will be issued and an a service fee in the amount of 15€ will be applied. Please note that Air France can make carriage dependent on whether the Fare including Tax of the new Ticket has been paid. (c) Article (b) shall not apply if the Passenger has purchased and used another Ticket on the same route within 24 hours following the departure of the flight corresponding to the unused Coupon.
