1. Changes in reservation:

If, after a confirmation email/invoice has been issued, you wish to change your holiday arrangements / Flight reservation, we will do our utmost to assist you, However 98% suppliers particularly airlines, do not allow changes and tickets are strictly NON-REFUNDABLE, NON-CHANGEABLE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE.
Any change to an itinerary prior to receipt of your final payment will be treated as an amendment.
Depending on the amount of work involved, each change/amendment will incur a charge which will not exceed £50 per person in addition to any further costs or charges that we incur from our suppliers in making the alteration considering that the airline/supplier rules/policy permits the requested change.
If full payment has already been received amendments may not be permitted in the airline policy, under these circumstances, amendments can be treated as cancellations and the cancellation charges detailed below will apply. However, generally cancellations are entirely non-refundable (unless specified).
Please note that most suppliers, in particular airlines do not allow a name change / date change or any changes and may consider this as a cancellation with a 100% cancellation charge (where ticket is not utilized as originally issued).

1. CHANGES BEFORE TICKET / VOUCHERS ISSUANCE

Reservations are entirely non-changeable, non-transferable and non-refundable, unless specified. However; Changes before ticket issuance are regulated both in accordance with airline policy and company policy and should be discussed with the concerned agent as rules may vary depending on carrier/supplier. Changes cannot be guaranteed and will depend on availability of seats/fares and classes. Also, Changes incur cost differences / penalty.

Once a change is requested by the traveler, any previous/existing reservation and fares are dissolved to make changes and therefore, if a traveler chooses to retreat, it is not possible to offer the same previous fare again, or older/previous reservation or seats on previously given/reserved date. Hence in that case, any fare difference, charges or penalty will apply accordingly to return to reservation on original data. In cases where the difference is not paid or agreed by the traveler; yet the change has been ordered, the reservation will be treated as cancellation by traveler (Refer "changes after ticket / voucher issuance") and cancellation charges will be payable/deducted.

1. Name Change Before Ticket / Voucher Issuance

Please note as airlines strictly do not permit name changes at any stage, if you require a name change prior ticket issuance; it can be done only through re-booking of seats. As we are seller of special and promotional fares available for short duration and few seats only, it is possible that upon rebooking (for name change) same fare, same dates or prices are not available. Under these circumstances any fare / cost difference as applicable, will be payable by the traveler. Fares are constantly changing and mostly raising, therefore any fare/tax difference as applicable on date of name change / rebooking will be charged accordingly and payable by the traveler. However, if the difference is not accepted or paid, the reservation will be subjected to regulations as stated in section  headed "cancellation by traveler".

2. Date / Schedule Change Before Ticket/Voucher Issuance

The date / schedule change requires to book the cheapest available or closest available fare or any available fare on the new/amended date. However, there may not be the same or cheap fare available on a new date or any date other than that reserved initially on request. Also, fares are revised every 24 hours and the airline may revise fares / or raise fares at any instance. Under these conditions, fare difference in addition to any date change penalty as applicable on new/changed date will be payable by the traveler. However, if the traveler refuses to proceed with the date change, after the change is ordered by her/him, the terms as stated in section headed "cancellation by traveler" will apply.

3. Reservation Dissolution / Dissolved Reservations/Vouchers:
1. Please note upon ordering a Name / Date change, the details of previous/existing reservation are dissolved to make any new changes in your PNR / Record. Hence, one cannot revert to older reservation at same costs or seat availability may not remain open on same date, once changes are ordered and original reservation is dissolved to search for changes.
2. If the change or difference is not accepted (after ordering), the reservation may automatically incur cancellation charges considering that the former dates / reservation is dissolved already upon change order.

7. Genral rules

1. Goods/services you purchase from Agency consist of only a valid ticket number for the flight. The transaction shall constitute as completed and duties shall deem to have been fully performed by Agency upon provision of the electronic ticket to clients. The actual operation of a flight is not part of Agency's responsibility since it is a specific performance by the airline and we do not have any influence on such operations and shall not be liable to reimburse out of pocket. If allowed by airline, the refund in such cases shall be applied with the airline and shall be paid back to client as and when received back from the airline similar to initial purchase where client pays us and then we forward that money onto the airline for ticket issuance. Additional administrative charges apply for further processing after issuance of tickets
2. All tickets are non-refundable, non-changeable and non transferable unless otherwise specified
3. Kindly inform latest by 24 hours after receipt of e-mail if there is any correction required in your names / dates etc. within working hours of the relevant consultant. the email must be checked as a whole and not just in part. changes are subject to the availability, in case of delayed response by client, any errors/changes shall be subject to charges to rectify the error. Ensuring that the payment arrives in our account by the deadline/due date is clients' responsibility and any delays in the payment shall be a breach of payment deadline. Please note your relevant Consultant's working hours to ensure timely communication.
4. Email reply by clients is just a secondary step taken as precaution to avoid agent mistakes and is not a requirement to be considered as an agreement by client. The agreement is formed as and when your flight is booked over the phone. This is just another mode of communication for the same.
5. Once the payment is made clients have to verify the transacted amount and authorization code by checking with their respective banks. Verification of the exact amount (in pounds and penne) should be in written and replied back with the same email confirming the details of the flights/holidays package. Flight cancellation by system or fare expiry due to delay caused by such failure to meet this standard security check will fall under breach by you.
6. If a third party card is used, you are required to provide us with the requirements of third party card, otherwise the ticket shall not be issued with the charged payment. Failure in compliance will also result in 'cancellation by you' and charges will be applicable.
7. Kindly re-confirm your flight schedule with us at least 48 hours before flight for weekday flights and 72 hours before departure for weekend flights.
8. Availability of seats and fares are indicative and will be confirmed only upon payment confirmation.
9. Deposits are non-refundable and will hold the seat only (not the fare) so if there is any fare difference coming up at the time of final payment, it will be charged accordingly.
10. Agency does not take any responsibility for the valid travel documents for the passenger. As a Travel agency, we only do flight tickets and hotels. We strongly advice you take advice of concerned consulate for any issues regarding transit or any other

12. Flights/Packages are protected by CAA in case the airline goes out of operation or bankruptcy.
13. Airline refund application of any kind made for a refundable ticket; whether missed/no show/cancelled/delayed/ flights; shall be subject to additional administrative fees in all cases, whether cancelled/missed by passenger or by airline; these are additional services and do not form part of original reservation and ticket issuance cost. These vary with every airline and every booking.

Should any fare be designated provisional against an itinerary line, this means the airline, tour operator or hotel has yet to confirm the exact fare to be charged. So subsequently this fare may be subject to change.

3. Exchange rates

If all or part of your itinerary includes prices quoted in a foreign currency the amount payable is subject to the rate of exchange in force at the time of final payment. Currency rates may fluctuate and cause a difference in final payment where there is a *reverse trip (departure from outside UK / IRELAND) OR where the seller is based in country other than UK OR where the seller trades in a different currency than that quoted in price or where the seller is effected by currency fluctuations.
