Can I Claim Price Protection against Flight Tickets?

I did an international flight booking with my Coles Credit card.
Can I do a price protection claim on the flight ticket if the price of flight was reduced ?

  • The fine print has your answer. Which is no. Keyword is "item".

    i'm guessing no

    *Price Protection does not cover the following items

    …tickets, postal orders and other negotiable instruments

    From page 2 of the link you posted

    I've thought about this also. I concluded that flights do not fall under the definition of "item".

    But what the hell, the claim process is so simple, put one in anyway and find out. 😏

    What did Coles finance say when you asked them?

      They said to ask OzBargain of course.

    • hey settle down…. lets not do anything crazy like talk to the people who know about these things and can give you an answer. You gotta ask random people on the internet first!

        Random people who have nothing original to say.

          That's a random comment.

          • @Daabido: Yes it was. The comment I was referring to certainly wasn't random.

        • Well, why didn't you answer the OPs question then, other than posting random non original content?

          • @JimmyF: Exactly. Together we have demonstrated my point.

        • I think that's the point - OP is asking "random people who have nothing original to say" instead of people who'd know.

          • @HighAndDry: Context is important.

            Also, the OP's question was in fact answered in a previous comment, so no, not really.

  • Hi,

    Some travel agents e.g.
    https://www.statravel.com.au/price-drop-promise.htm
    have this.

    Check who you booked through and your airline.
    e.g. http://www.singaporeair.com/en_UK/au/plan-travel/local-promo…

  • It needs to be a physical item, and purchased outright

  • Thanks guys
