Our Flex Option - The most important questions and answers

What exactly is the Flex Option?

With the Flex Option, you have the option of rebooking or cancelling your booked trip up to 7 days before arrival without giving any reason. We will refund you the entire the travel price. The travel price is the total amount shown on the confirmation/invoice for the package holiday, less any premiums for insurance taken out with the booking and the amount shown for the flex option. These insurance premiums must also be paid in full in the event of cancellation. For bookings with a stated ticket price for musicals, opera, theatre or all other events, the cancellation fee is 100% of the ticket price.

Plan your next city trip in a relaxed and carefree manner, Hamburg Tourismus GmbH gives you maximum flexibility.
