Can you get a refund on a non-refundable flight to Dubai if you are medically unfit to fly?

Contact the airline directly first: it can confirm whether your non-refundable fare is eligible for a medical refund and list the required documents.

Eligibility is determined by the individual airline’s policy, so a medical certificate alone does not automatically guarantee a refund.

Check whether the carrier accepts a certificate from a private clinic: some airlines require documentation from a government hospital or clinic.

Ask the doctor to include the medical condition and an explicit statement that air travel is contraindicated specifically for the scheduled flight dates.
