How long does it take to get flight confirmation for a repatriation?
The time an airline takes to confirm flight details for repatriation differs from airline to airline. If there are family members travelling on the same flight this may speed up the process. It is not always possible to get the Human Remains booked on the same flight as the passengers. In these cases it is better to get the confirmation for the repatriation before booking tickets.
