      • 2.7.2 post or transmit any unlawful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, or indecent material or any material that could constitute conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law;

  • 3. Website functionalities and Kiwi.com Account
    • 3.1 The Website contains multiple functionalities which are available to the User and may be used by a designated part of the interface of the Website or other designated online tools such as emails ("Website interface"). We will provide you with functionalities of the Website provided that you use the functionalities in a way that has been intended and allowed by us.
    • 3.2 The Kiwi.com Account is formed by additional functionalities of the Website with restricted access ("Kiwi.com Account") such as tools for the management of your current and past bookings or the storage of data necessary for making bookings in the future.
    • 3.3 You may access the Kiwi.com account associated with your email address by signing in via the Website interface provided you previously made a booking on the Website with your email address, or you created a Kiwi.com Account via the Website interface with your email address.
  • 4. Search functionalities
    • 4.1 Search functionalities of the Website allow you to search amongst transport services of third parties and their combinations.
    • 4.2 The displayed search results depend on your input and choices made via the Website interface within defined parameters.
    • 4.3 By default, we rank search results from best, meaning that transport options that we consider better are displayed higher while options considered worse are displayed lower. Which option is better and which is worse is determined by a formula based on the combination of price (lower price is considered better than a higher price), and convenience, such as duration (shorter carriage is considered better than longer carriage) and the number of layovers (fewer layovers is better than more layovers). Additionally, when the number of passengers is higher, the duration factor has more weight. You may change the default ranking of search results to any of the available options. In that case, the search results are ranked according to the selected parameter such as price or duration.
  • 5. Your booking options
    • 5.1 When you search for travel options on the Website, you may see two distinct choices for completing your booking:
      • 5.1.1 Booking with Kiwi.com
      • 5.1.2 Redirect to third-party websites.
    • 5.2 Booking with Kiwi.com. If you choose to book with Kiwi.com, you will handle your entire booking process on our Website, including payment. This means you’ll enter into an agreement with us, and we will act on your behalf to secure all necessary third-party services, such as flights and flight ancillaries. Additionally, you will be able to order post-booking services with Kiwi.com and reach out to our customer support for assistance.
    • 5.3 Redirect to third-party websites. If you opt for the redirect option, you’ll be taken to a different website to finalise your booking. In this scenario, Kiwi.com will not be part of your agreement or transaction. You will enter into a contract with the third-party service provider. As a result, you will not be able to enjoy the benefits that we offer to our customers, and will not have access to Kiwi.com’s post-booking services or customer support.
  • 6. Prices
    • 6.1 We strive to ensure that the prices displayed on our Website are up to date and accurate. The prices displayed on our Website are the prices at which we expect to secure the purchase of a ticket, baggage, or seating, based on our knowledge of the market and last search. However, the prices displayed are also based on prices of third parties (e.g. airlines, global distribution systems), over which we have no control, and our latest search results. Therefore, these prices might be subject to changes.
    • 6.2 Prices displayed on the Website might be adjusted by automated decision-making.
  • 7. Our intellectual property
    • 7.1 We retain any, and all, rights to our products and services and the Website and its content; including software, hardware, products, processes, algorithms, user interfaces, knowledge, technologies, inventions, designs, and other tangible or intangible materials or information made available to the User throughout the provision of the services or by using the Website.

The trademark owners and Kiwi.com are unaffiliated and independent entities. Kiwi.com secures all necessary third-party services, provides customer support and post-booking services, while the airlines carry out the transport of passengers. Nothing contained on this Website should be construed as our pretension to these third-party Trademarks or as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any Trademark displayed on the Website without the express written permission of its respective owner.

  • 9. Customer reviews
    • 9.1 Each review score is between 1-5. To get the score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received.
    • 9.2 In addition, customers can also give separate ‘scores’ for specific travel experience aspects, such as: airline or airport. Note that customers submit these scores and their score for Kiwi.com experience independently, so there’s no direct link between them.

    • 9.4 We always inform you if we publish all customer reviews, whether positive or negative, or if we publish only customer reviews of particular sentiment.
    • 9.5 Reviews may contain translations powered by third parties. We disclaim all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
    • 9.6 We may provide summaries of customer reviews highlighting the most common pros and cons. These summaries may be powered by AI.
    • 9.7 We offer no incentives for providing customer reviews.
    • 9.8 When submitting a review, please ensure that your comments pertain solely to the service or specific aspects of the service relevant to the individual section of the review form. We ask that you refrain from including any illegal, vulgar, or inappropriate content, as well as any personal data. Reviews that do not comply with these guidelines may be filtered out of the review pool and will not be displayed. This helps us maintain a respectful and relevant review environment for all users.
