2.1.2 除免费运输和优惠票价运输条件、合同、票证另有规定外,本条件亦适用于免费和优惠票价运输。在二者不一致的情况下,免费运输和运价、合同、票证的特殊规定优先于本条件。

2.2 包机运输
根据川航包机合同提供的运输,本条件仅适用于该包机合同和包机客票的条款中所涉及的范围。
2.3 代码共享
川航的运输总条件也将适用于由其它承运人实际运营的代码共享航班。但是,每个代码共享航班的实际承运人都有各自的关于其航班运营的运输总条件或运输条款,而且可能部分内容与川航的运输总条件有所差异。实际承运人的
这些差异条款与条件,在代码共享航班中将视为川航运输总条件的组成部分,并在由实际承运人运营的代码共享航班上取代川航运输总条件所对应的内容得到优先适用。川航与代码共享航班实际承运人之间可能存在差异的条款和条件,包括但不限于:
2.3.1 乘机登记手续截止办理时间;

3 客 票
3.1 一般规定
3.1.1 川航客票是川航和客票上所列姓名的旅客之间运输凭证。川航只向持有川航或与川航签有联运协议的航空公司票证的旅客提供运输。
3.1.2 旅客购买多本客票,即与川航订立多个相互独立的运输合同。旅客购买一本联程客票,即与川航订立一个单一运输合同。根据相关法律法规及本条件的规定,购买多本客票或购买一本联程客票,将产生不同的法律效果。除另有规定外,本条件约定的川航与旅客的权利义务关系仅适用于一个单一运输合同,不牵连至其他运输合同。旅客应对此有充分认识并根据自身实际情况进行选择购买。
3.1.3 旅客购买的客票,仅适用于客票上所列明的自出发地点、约定的经停地点至目的地点的运输。
3.1.4 客票不得转让。如果客票不是由有权乘机或退票的人出示,而川航按规定向出示该客票的人提供了运输或退款,川航对原客票有权乘机或退票的人,不承担责任。
3.1.5 某些以优惠票价销售的客票,可能适用特殊的退改签政策,包括退票仅
能退还部分票款或不予退票、改签等,旅客应选择最适合自身需要的票价进行购买。
3.1.6 每张电子客票应按照其所列明的座位等级和已定妥座位的航班及日期由川航接受运输。对未定妥座位的电子客票,川航或其授权销售代理人应按旅客申请,根据适用票价和所申请航班座位可利用情况为旅客定座。
3.1.7 对于电子客票,如果旅客要求乘坐的航段的电子票联不是未使用的有效客票状态,川航有权拒绝承运。
3.2 客票的有效期
3.2.1 一般规定
(1)除客票上、本条件或者适用的运价另有规定外,客票有效期自旅行开始之日起,一年内运输有效;如果客票第一航段未使用或不定期的客票,自填开客票之日起计算,一年内运输有效。若客票的第一航段已使用,则自旅行之日开始计算的一年有效期,对整本客票或连续客票有效,而不管以后改变航程或换开客票,原有效期不变。
若原客票完全未使用,客票换开后,新客票的有效期自旅行开始之日计算,一年内运输有效,换开后的客票第一航段未使用的,或不定期客票自客票换开之日起计算,一年内运输有效。
(2)客票有效期的计算,自旅行开始或者填开客票之日的次日零时(含)起至有效期满之日的二十四小时(不含)为止。
(3)旅客应在客票有效期内,完成客票上列明的全部航程。如果购买的优惠客票对旅行日期有特殊规定的,必须在该适用运价的规定时间内完成客票列明的全部航程。
3.3 客票有效期的延长
3.3.1 川航由于下列原因之一,造成旅客未能在客票有效期内旅行的,其客票有效期将延长到川航能够按照该客票已付票价的舱位等级提供座位的最早航班为止:
(1)川航取消旅客已定妥座位的航班;
(2)川航未在航班经停地点降停,而该经停地点是旅客的出发地点、目的地点或者中途分程地点;
(3)川航未能合理地按照班期时刻进行航班飞行;
(4)川航造成旅客已定妥座位的航班衔接错失;
(5)川航更换了旅客的舱位等级;
(6)川航未能提供事先已定妥的座位。
3.4 票联的顺序和使用
3.4.1 客票的乘机联必须按照客票所列明的航程顺序使用,不得颠倒使用,且航程的第一航段必须首先使用,否则川航可以不接受承运。航程的第一航段,是指以一张客票或多张连续客票销售的同一运输合同的第一航段。未按顺序使用的客票,办理未使用航段退票时,按自愿退票规定办理。。
3.4.2 如果旅客要改变运输合同的任何一项内容,应当事先与川航联系,并遵循客票使用条件限制。运输合同一经改变,将按新的运输合同重新计算票价。旅客可自行选择接受新票价还是维持客票上原来的运输。如果因为不可抗力,旅客需要改变运输的任何一项内容,应当尽早与川航联系,川航将在合理的范围内尽力将旅客运送至下一个中途分程地点或者最终目的地点。
3.4.3 某些运输内容的变更将导致票价的提高,如出发地点的变更或旅行日期的变更;很多票价仅对客票上载明的特定日期的航班有效,并且不得变更,或者是在支付相应的费用后方可变更。
3.4.4 旅客客票应当列明舱位等级、乘机日期、航班,且在定妥座位后方可用于运输。
3.4.5 定期客票只适用于客票上列明的乘机日期和航班。
3.4.6 不定期客票或者含有不定期航段的客票,是指旅客在购票时根据自身需求和运价产品规则,允许整张客票或某一航段的航班号、日期、定座状态中的一项或多项在购买时均可为未定妥状态,但在实际承运前必须确认方可接收运输。
3.4.7 如果旅客出具的客票是不定期的,旅客可根据川航的运价通告和航班座位可利用情况申请定座。此类客票在客票使用条件和运输合同允许的范围内,在实际承运前,首次免费确认客票上未定妥的事项可以免去变更费用(即变更手续费),只需补收定妥座位时新航程与原未定妥客票的运价差额。
确认之后再次变更或确认未定妥事项时造成原客票已定妥内容的改变,均须按照运价使用条件的要求重新计算全航程票价并收取因此带来的票款差额和相应的变更费用。
3.4.8 如果旅客不搭乘已定妥座位的航班,且未预先通知川航,川航可以取消旅客客票上列明的续程或回程航班定座。
3.5 电子客票行程单
3.5.1 电子客票行程单最迟应在航班起飞后 28 天内打印。

4.3.2 旅客购买机票时,承运人将告知旅客未包括在票价中的税款和费用,税费会在客票上分别列明。对航空旅行征收的税款或费用常有变动,而且有可能在客票售出以后征收。如果客票上列明适用的税费有所增加或在客票售出后新增税费,旅客有义务补交。同样,如果旅客在购买机票时支付的税费因被取消或减少而不再适用于旅客,旅客有权申请退款,航空公司将根据政府相关部门规则进行退还。
