Passengers with new and existing bookings between 19th March 2020 and 15th April 2020 have been extended the facility of not showing up for their scheduled flights, without notifying Go Air.
Passengers have also been provided with the benefit to reschedule their travel without any extra fee, for up to 1 year from their original date of travel.
However, one should note that the fare differential will be applicable in this case.
Passengers with new bookings for travel between 15th April 2020 30th September 2020, can enjoy a waiver of the rescheduling charges for any flight up to 30th September. (source)
