    Does transfer of a non transferable ticket cause loss to the company.
    According to law, most transport companies, whether they be land, sea or air transport companies like railways, shipping lines, busses or airlines prohibit the transfer of tickets once sold. Transfer of these tickets to a person other than whose name it was issued in is considered illegal.

    If this transfer does take place, if whatever reason, like an employee gives a ticket which should normally have been cancelled and in put in for refund to another passenger, while it would be against the law, would it somehow cause loss to the compnay. If yes, how.

    Hello U:

    It's according to company policy - not law. The company would be able to sell the seat or the cabin again and get their money back. Besides, it shouldn't be illegal to transfer a ticket. It's yours. You bought it. You ought to be able to do with it what you please. So, SCREW the airlines!!
