1. Full Payment will be deducted from Your Credit/Debit Card at the time of making
your on-line reservation. This will be debited for all named persons contained in
the reservation.
2. In making an on-line reservation or any service contained within our website
it is assumed that you have checked for Visa requirements for both your destination
and Transit points, checked for Medical requirements and are aware of the need for
Travel Insurance to cover against Medical illness abroad and cancellation due to
medical reasons, for all persons contained within the reservation.
3. In most cases Air fares cannot be changed and a date change will be treated as
a cancellation and may result in 100% cancellation charges being applied. There
may be certain services such as Car Hire that may permit a date change or cancellation
at a charge, this will depend on the conditions of the service provider and the
type of service being booked. Before making a reservation, make sure you are fully
conversant with the cancellation and amendment charges that will be applied should
you need to change or cancel your reservation. For further information please contact
our office.
4. Prices shown are guaranteed once a reservation reference has been given and your
Credit/Debit Card transaction has been completed. It is sometimes a requirement
of certain Banks, for us to obtain further information from the Cardholder such
as identification. Should this situation occur you will be contacted by one of our
Internet reservation team. In the event of your Credit/Debit card being unable to
be processed, you will be contacted and offered an alternative way to pay for your
reservation.
5. Airline schedules are subject to change and withdrawal without notice and we
take no responsibility for this occurrence, where this occurs, you will be subject
to the conditions of the carrier in relation to altering your reservation or requesting
a refund.
6.Travel documents are despatched 10-14 days prior to departure by First Class Mail.
We will gladly keep your documents in our office for collection. We can forward
your Tickets by Business Post (Secured Mail) at a charge of £5.00.
7. We take no responsibility for reservations that have not been completed without
receiving a booking reference. If you are unsure at any time in the reservation
process as to whether your transaction has been completed, you should telephone
our Internet reservation team, to check that the transaction is complete and obtain
the booking reference number.
8. It is a condition that you reconfirm all onward and return flights, no later
than 72 hours prior to departure; this will avoid cancellation of booked seats and
will update you on schedule changes.
These are our general conditions of sale and others may apply, including the Airline
with whom you are travelling. Please contact our office for these or any further
information you require. |
A non-refundable and non-transferable deposit is payable
at the time of booking. The balance of your booking must be paid 1-0 days after no later than 10
weeks before your departure and a lot of circumstances sooner.
This date will be shown on your booking confirmation.
Please note we do not send reminders.
If the balance is not paid by this date your travel
arrangements may be cancelled and you may forfeit your deposit.
Whilst your deposit secures your reservation it does
not always guarantee the final cost of your travel arrangements (Taxes, fuel surcharges
and airfare frequently go up)..
Prices are subject to change and a fare is guaranteed
only when your travel documents are issued. It is therefore to your advantage to
finalise payment as soon as possible.
Tickets & vouchers cannot be issued until full payment
has been received.
Payment can be taken by bank transfer* (our favourite), cash, cheque, credit card (Visa,
Mastercard), debit card (Visa Debit), or American Express.
Payment by UK credit card will be subject to a 2.5% surcharge,
however payment by a debit card (Maestro, Visa
Debit) will not be subject to any charge.
Payments by American Express are subject to a 3% surcharge.
If your travel documents are paid for by a third party
using their credit/debit card we will require written authorisation by the cardholder
with a signature and a copy of the card.
Personal cheques require 15 working days to clear. If
our bank returns any cheque to us unpaid, a £15 charge will be levied.
Bank transfers are our favourite method of payment. They attract no bank fees within the UK (and a minimal amount within Europe), can be done digitally or on the phone with your bank and take 2 to 3 working days to come through. We are fans. Also they keep our costs down which we can then transfer to you, our lovely customers. |
