Ticket Home

[skylark]

my contract has just expired, and part of the contract was a 1 way airline ticket valued up to 32,000 bhat.

the school did purchase a ticket for me useing cash and gave it to me, the etkt is 100% refundable. The problem is i am not going home my family is here and it would be way too expeinsive at this time to send all of us

so can i cash that ticket in....it is in my name

stupid question but i am confused.'

"so can i cash that ticket in"

"it is in my name "

" the etkt is 100% refundable"

What do you think?

The best would probably be to call the airline and ask them

I'm not sure what the airline would say if you went to them and said the ex-pats on the ThaiVisa website said it was ok to to get a refund for this ticket. lol...But you can try!

I don't see your problem.

Your contract included a ticket which you now don't want.

You say that the ticket, (Which is in your name) is 100% refundable............so get a refund, and spend the money on something else.

It's hardly rocket science.

But if he was an English teacher...?

It seems rather straightforward. The contract included a ticket, they gave you the ticket. The contract does not stipulate that you have to return to your home country.

From a legal point of view, the ticket is yours to use as you see fit. In previous jobs that I have had, it was not uncommon for employees to fiddle around with tickets. Some changed the location and took a vacation. In some places, you could even redeem the ticket for cash from the employer, although this is unusual.

Call the airlines and check on redeeming the ticket and best of luck.
