Airlines often provide bereavement fares for family members traveling due to a death. Air Canada, for instance, extends these discounts to a wide range of family members, including:
- Spouses (including married, common-law, and same-sex partners)
- Children (including adopted children, stepchildren, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren)
- Parents (including stepparents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and in-laws)
- Siblings (including step-siblings, half-siblings, and in-laws)
- Extended family (aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews, including those of spouses)
- Legal guardians (with proof) and their spouses
Be sure to check with your specific airline and notify them before booking, as policies and available discounts may vary.
