Your genuine advertised fare must be presented to us on the same day as it was advertised and within 30 days from the date of payment in full of your original Captain’s Pack Fare booking and prior to departure. Price Drop Protection only applies to genuine fares from airlines and from Flight Centre & www.flightcentre.com (but excludes Flight Centre's associated brands and entities BYOjet.com & AuntBetty.com), for travel that originates/departs from Australia. Fare must be in writing and presented to us on the same day as it was advertised.

The written fare must show the date it was advertised and the final price including all applicable fees and charges (including booking/service fees and all charges for the form of payment chosen). Fares available due to membership of a group or corporate entity or subscription to a closed group or fares discounted due to a government subsidy or scheme are excluded. Should the fare be less than your original Captain’s Value Pack fare we will issue a Flight Centre voucher to you for up to $50pp or should the fare be less than your original Captain’s Plus we will issue a Flight Centre Voucher for the value of the difference.

If your Price Drop Protection voucher has been redeemed, the value of the voucher will be deducted from the refund due on the original airfare in addition to the airline’s cancellation fee. 

If you cancel the original Captain’s Pack and the airline has provided you a credit for the airfare, the value of your Captain’s Pack will be held in credit. 

For Captain's Packs held in credit, any future Price Drop Protection claims will be assessed based on the value of the flights at the time of rebooking, not the original value of the cancelled fare. The new value to be assessed against will be cited on your invoice at the time of re-booking. Should the price of your Captain’s Pack Value or Plus fare fall below your purchase price, prior to your departure date, we will give you either up to $50pp on the Value Pack or the difference on the Plus Pack by issuing a Flight Centre voucher.
