Travelstart-Introduces-Visa-Denied-ServiceOver 70% of Nigerian travellers lose the cost of their flight tickets after their visa application has been denied. To curb this OTA Travelstart has unveiled an instant refund service incase a travellers visa is denied.

The service will cover travellers for the cost of airline ticket should their visa application be rejected by an Embassy and simplify what has been difficult and costly during travel planning process. Passengers get instant refund on full cost of tickets should their visas be denied.

According to Lilian Obinna-Igwe, Travelstart Nigeria’s Country Manager, “The visa denied service has been introduced based on our major concern for our customers’ convenience. We know how difficult it is for customers to book and pay for their flights, only for their visa application to be denied and then, they lose their money due to some certain rules of the ticket they purchased, especially if the ticket purchased is not refundable or cannot be changed. But our visa denied service is designed to relieve customers from all these hassles.”

The visa denied product can be purchased during your flight booking process on www.travelstart.com.ng. The service covers you if you are a Nigerian passport holder, or have booked your return international airline tickets on Travelstart.com.ng and for those applying for a tourist visa.

Visa denied is not applicable to those applying for business visa, immigration or working holidays or passengers with a criminal record and those who have once been denied entrance into any country abroad.
