3.2 Personal Data
The Passenger agrees and consents that his/her personal data will be furnished to ZIPAIR by the Passenger or his/her agent, will be retained by ZIPAIR or, if ZIPAIR deems necessary, will be transmitted by ZIPAIR to any of its own offices, other carriers, the providers of travel services, government authorities or other entity or agency in countries to be flown from, into or over, or in countries of transit and transfer, for the purpose of making a reservation for Carriage, obtaining ancillary services, facilitating immigration and entry requirements or making available such data to government authorities or for any other purpose which ZIPAIR deems necessary in order to facilitate the travel for the Passenger.

If a Passenger fails to arrive at ZIPAIR's check-in counter or the boarding gate by the time indicated by ZIPAIR or is unable to depart due to improper or incomplete exit, entry or any other necessary documentation required for his/her departure, ZIPAIR may cancel his/her reservation of a seat and will not delay the flight for the Passenger. Unless otherwise specified in Applicable Laws, applicable fare, ancillary service charges and other charges will not be refunded if the Passenger cannot board the flight in time due to such a failure to arrive at the indicated times. ZIPAIR shall not be liable to the Passenger for any loss incurred by the Passenger as a result of their failure to comply with the provisions of this Article.
10. SECURITY INSPECTION
(1) A Passenger shall submit to any security check required by government or airport officials or by ZIPAIR, unless it is specifically deemed unnecessary by government or airport officials or by ZIPAIR.
(2) ZIPAIR or any government or airport official will inspect the contents of a Passenger's Baggage by opening his/her Baggage and/or by using some device in the presence of the Passenger concerned or a third person, for the purpose of security (including but not limited to the prevention of unlawful acts of seizure, exercise of control or destruction of aircraft) and/or for any other reason.

11. REFUSAL AND LIMITATION OF CARRIAGE
11.1 Right to Refuse Carriage, Etc.
ZIPAIR may refuse Carriage of, or remove, any Passenger, and his/her Baggage will be handled in the same way, if ZIPAIR determines in its reasonable discretion that:

(2) the Passenger may unlawfully seek to enter a country through which he/she is in transit by means of destroying his/her documentation required for exit, entry or other purposes or other ways;

In the event the Passenger acts in a manner falling under paragraphs (10),(11),(12) and/or (13) above, ZIPAIR may take such measures as it deems necessary to prevent continuation of such conduct, including through restraint of the Passenger.

The Passenger shall be responsible for and indemnify ZIPAIR for any and all costs and expenses associated with a flight diversion or landing at an unscheduled airport as a result of the Passenger engaging in any conduct described in this Article 11.1. Such costs and expenses shall include, but not be limited to, fuel, landing, take off and parking charges.
11.2 Conditional Acceptance for Carriage
If a Passenger whose status, age or mental or physical condition may cause any hazard or risk to himself/herself is carried, ZIPAIR shall not be liable for death of, or any injury, illness, wounding or disability suffered by, the Passenger or any aggravation or consequences thereof due to such status, age or mental or physical condition.

(2) If the total weight of the Passengers boarding, and/or Baggage loaded in, an aircraft may exceed the maximum allowance weight with respect to the aircraft, ZIPAIR may, in accordance with ZIPAIR's Regulations, decide which Passengers and/or Baggage will be carried.

12.1 Refusal of Entry
(1) A Passenger shall present to ZIPAIR all exit, entry or other necessary documents required by Applicable Laws and shall permit ZIPAIR, if ZIPAIR at its reasonable discretion deems it necessary, to make and retain copies thereof. The fact that ZIPAIR carries a Passenger after presentation of exit, entry or other documents to ZIPAIR does not mean that ZIPAIR guarantees that such documents comply with the Applicable Laws.
(2) A Passenger shall indemnify ZIPAIR for any loss or damage incurred by ZIPAIR, in connection with the Passenger's failure to comply with this Article.
(3) A Passenger shall pay the applicable fares, ancillary charges and expenses whenever ZIPAIR is required by any Applicable Laws to return the Passenger to his/her place of departure or elsewhere because the Passenger is not permitted to enter a country of transit or Destination.

If there has been contributory negligence on the part of the Passenger, ZIPAIR's liability shall be subject to the applicable law relating to contributory negligence.
(2) ZIPAIR shall not be liable for any Damage in respect of Unchecked Baggage not attributable to negligence of ZIPAIR.

15. CANADA PASSENGER PROTECTION REGULATIONS
15.1 Flight Delays, Cancellations, and Denial of Boarding
Where a flight is delayed, cancelled or where a passenger is not permitted to occupy a seat on board a flight because the number of seats that may be occupied on the flight is less than the number of passengers who have checked in by the required time, hold a confirmed reservation and valid travel documentation and are present at the boarding gate at the required boarding time (a “Denial of Boarding”) (flight delays, cancellations and Denial of Boarding are collectively referred to as a “Flight Disruption”), passengers may be entitled to specific standards of treatment, rebooking or a refund, and compensation as set out in 15.7 B and C.
The following is a summary of our terms and conditions in cases of a Flight Disruption.
(A) Notifying passengers of a known Flight Disruption
To keep our passengers informed during a Flight Disruption we will provide affected passengers with the following information, based on the information available to us:
(i)The reason for the Flight Disruption;
(ii)The compensation to which the passengers may be entitled for the inconvenience (if applicable);
(iii)The standard of treatment for passengers (if any); and
(iv)The recourse available to passengers against ZG, including their recourse to the Canadian Transportation Agency.
We will provide passengers with updated information as soon as feasible and will provide status updates every 30 minutes until a new departure time is set for the flight or alternative travel arrangements have been made pursuant to (1)(B) here.
15.2 Providing services to minimize inconvenience
Alternate Travel Arrangements
In the event of a delay of three hours or more (“Extended Delay”), a flight cancellation, or a Denial of Boarding, we will assist our passengers in rebooking travel to their destination to complete their itinerary as soon as feasible. Specifically:
Where the Extended Delay, flight cancellation, or a Denial of Boarding occurs for reasons outside of our control as defined in the APPR and described below, we will provide our passengers, free of charge, with:
(i)a confirmed reservation for the next available flight that is operated by ZG, traveling on any reasonable air route from the airport where the passenger is located to their destination, and that departs within 48 hours of the end of the event that caused the Extended Delay, flight cancellation or Denial of Boarding
A Flight Disruption is outside of our control if caused by events, including but not limited to, war or political instability, illegal acts or sabotage, meteorological conditions or natural disasters that make the safe operation of the aircraft impossible, instructions from air traffic control, a NOTAM, a security threat, airport operation issues, a medical emergency, a collision with wildlife, a labour disruption within ZG or within an essential service provider such as an airport or an air navigation service provider, a manufacturing defect in an aircraft that reduces the safety of passengers and that was identified by the manufacturer of the aircraft concerned, or by a competent authority, or an order or instruction from an official of a state or a law enforcement agency or from a person responsible for airport security.
Where an Extended Delay, a flight cancellation, or a Denial of Boarding, occurs for reasons within our control, (including situations required for safety purposes), we will provide passengers, free of charge, with:
(i)a confirmed reservation on the next available flight that is operated by ZG, traveling on any reasonable air route from the airport where the passenger is located to their destination, and that departs within 9 hours of the original departure time.
A Flight Disruption is within our control but required for safety purposes where the cause of the Flight Disruption is required by law in order to reduce risk to passenger safety and includes required by safety decisions made within the authority of the pilot of the aircraft or any decision made in accordance with a safety management system as defined in subsection 101.01(1) of the Canadian Aviation Regulations but does not include scheduled maintenance in compliance with legal requirements.
In accordance with the APPR, we will provide alternate travel arrangements that are comparable to those on the original ticket in case of an Extended Delay, cancellation or Denial of Boarding.
Information about compensation for an Extended Delay or cancellation is described in 15.7 C.
If the alternate travel arrangements offered do not accommodate our passenger’s travel needs, we will (a) in the case where a passenger is no longer at the point of origin indicated on the ticket and the travel no longer serves a purpose because of the Flight Disruption, refund the ticket and if necessary, return our passenger to his/her point of origin; and (b) in any other case, refund the unused portion of the ticket. Passengers who choose to take a ticket refund instead of alternate arrangements may be entitled to compensation in the amount of $400 (CAD) if their ticket is refunded due to an Extended Delay or cancellation that is within the control of ZG (except where the Extended Delay or cancellation is required for safety purposes). In order to receive compensation, the passenger must file a request for compensation with ZG within 1 year of the Extended Delay or cancellation.
15.3 Denial of Boarding Procedure
Before a Denial of Boarding, we ask passengers to volunteer to give up their seat. If we offer a benefit to our volunteer(s) in exchange for giving up his/her seat, we will provide written confirmation of the benefit before the flight departs.
Where a Denial of Boarding occurs, we will give priority for boarding to passengers in the following order: (i)unaccompanied minors;
(ii)a person with a disability and their support person, service animal, or emotional support animal, if any;
(iii)a passenger who is travelling with family members; and
(iv)a passenger who was previously denied boarding on the same ticket.
*The order of priority described above does not apply where the Denial of Boarding was caused by a situation outside of our control.
We will make reasonable efforts not to cause a Denial of Boarding to a passenger who is already on board the aircraft but may do so where it is required for safety reasons.
Information about compensation for Denial of Boarding is set out in 15.7 B.
15.4 Our Contingency Plan for Lengthy Tarmac Delays
Where a flight is delayed on a tarmac at a Canadian airport for three hours after the aircraft doors have been closed for take-off or after the flight has landed, we will allow passengers to disembark the aircraft.
*The following cases are excluded: (1) where it is likely that take-off will occur less than three hours and 45 minutes after the doors of the aircraft are closed for take-off or after the flight has landed and ZG is able to continue providing passengers with the services described below; and (2) where it is not possible to provide an opportunity for passengers to disembark, including if it is not possible for reasons related to safety and security or to air traffic or customs control.
When allowing passengers to disembark, if feasible, we will give passengers with disabilities, and their support person, service animal or emotional support animal (if any) the opportunity to disembark first.
For all flights to, from and within Canada, in accordance with the APPR, we will use reasonable efforts to provide convenient and comfortable services to all customers in cases of tarmac delays. Specifically, we will provide passengers with the following, free of charge:
(i)Access to lavatories in working order;
(ii)Proper ventilation and cooling or heating of the aircraft;
(iii)If it is feasible to communicate with people outside of the aircraft, the means to do so; and
(iv)Food and drink, in reasonable quantities, taking into account the length of the delay, the time of day and the location of the airport.
15.5 Lost or Damaged Baggage
We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that all checked baggage is available as soon as possible after a passenger's flight arrives at the gate and to avoid damage to the checked baggage. In the unlikely event your baggage does not arrive at your destination with you, we will initiate a search and make reasonable efforts to return the baggage to you within 24 hours. In the further unlikely event that your baggage cannot be located or your baggage is damaged, we will pay compensation for lost or damaged baggage as required by applicable international agreements and according to our Conditions of Carriage. Moreover, in cases of lost (even temporarily) or damaged baggage, we will reimburse passengers for any fees paid for carrying such baggage.
15.6 Assignment of Seats to Children under the Age of 14 Years
We make every effort to ensure that children under the age of 14 years are assigned a seat in close proximity to their parent, guardian or tutor in accordance with the following chart at no additional cost:
This table can be scrolled horizontally.
Age of Child Seating provided
4 years of age or younger Seat provided will be adjacent to parent, guardian, or tutor
‎5 to 11 years of age‎ Seat provided will be in the same row as the child’s parent, guardian, or tutor and that is separated from the child’s parent, guardian, or tutor by no more than one seat or the space of an aisle
12 or 13 years of age‎ Seat provided will be in a row that is separated from the row of the parent, guardian or tutor by no more than one row.
This table can be scrolled horizontally.
On some flights, passengers, including children under the age of 14 years, may reserve a specified seat on a flight in advance. ZG aims to assign a seat to a child in close proximity to their parent, guardian or tutor before check-in.
If we are unable to assign a child a seat in close proximity to their parent, guardian or tutor, we try to assign seats:
(i)At the time of check-in, if possible;
(ii)By asking for volunteers to change seats at the time of boarding; and
(iii)By asking for volunteers to change seats before take-off.
We will make every effort to ensure that children under the age of 14 years are assigned a seat in close proximity to their parent, guardian or tutor.
15.7 Information on treatment, compensation, refunds and recourse
(A)Providing services to minimize inconvenience resulting from a Flight Disruption
We make every effort to ensure our flights operate on time and passengers are not denied boarding. However, in case of a Denial of Boarding and in the case of a delay or cancellation where passengers are informed of the delay or cancellation less than 12 hours before the departure and have waited two hours after the original departure time, we will provide the following treatment, free of charge:
(i)Food and drink in reasonable quantities, taking into account the length of the wait, the time of day and the location of the passenger; and
(ii)Access to a means of communication.
*The following cases, however, are excluded: (1) where providing the services above would further delay the passenger; and (2) where the Flight Disruption was due to “situations outside the carrier’s control” as defined in section 10(1) of the APPR (described above in (1)(B) here).
ZIPAIR will provide overnight accommodations (hotel or comparable) including round trip transportation from the airport to the hotel or other accommodation, if ZG expects the passenger will be required to wait overnight for a flight reserved or as part of the alternate travel arrangements, in cases where the Extended Delay, cancellation or Denial of Boarding was within ZG’s control, including situations required for safety reasons.
(B)Compensation for Denial of Boarding
In the event that a passenger is denied boarding, and the cause of the Denial of Boarding was within our control (excluding situations within our control but required for safety purposes), affected passengers may be entitled to compensation, calculated based on your arrival time at destination, as follows:
This table can be scrolled horizontally.
Length of Delay Amount (CAD)
Less than 6 hours $900
Between 6 and 9 hours $1,800
9 hours or more $2,400

(C)Compensation for Delay or Cancellation
If a flight delay or cancellation is within our control (excluding situations within our control but required for safety purposes) and passengers have been informed of the delay or cancellation 14 days or less before their original departure time, affected passengers may be entitled to compensation, calculated based on your arrival time at destination, as follows:
