These should be provided to a Supplier where relevant. Any information supplied by Supplier on the Website or otherwise on these or related matters (such as climate, when to travel, clothing, baggage, personal items etc.) is given as general guidance and in good faith but we do not accept liability for any decisions made on the basis of the information supplied.
6.2 The passport, visa and health requirements at the time of booking should be viewed on relevant government websites or by making your own enquiries.

7.2 If a cancellation is accepted by Supplier, Supplier can require a cancellation charge and to charge additional costs incurred as a result of the travel arrangements already made. If there are standard cancellation charges, these will be set out in our separate Cancellation Policy (if applicable for the Service). Where a cancellation affects more than one person on the booking a cancellation charge will be applied in respect of each person on the booking.

Subject to your statutory rights, any such requests are at the discretion of the Supplier.
8.2 The Supplier has no legal obligation to make such changes but may, at its sole discretion and where feasible, try to accommodate the Customer’s request. Changes depend on availability and a fee may be imposed in the event of a change to a booking. Such fees can be substantial and such costs tend to increase the closer to the departure date that the change is made. For instance, certain elements of the Service (e.g. a flight) may incur a 100% charge.
8.3 Any amendments will be subject to our standard administration charge from time to time in place.
9. CANCELLATION BY THE SUPPLIER
9.1 On rare occasions, the Supplier may have to cancel the Service and reserves the right to do so. If the Supplier has to do so, the Customer will be notified as soon as possible. The Supplier may (at its discretion) also offer an alternative Service if able to do so and inform the Customer of its impact on the price of the booking. If the alternative Service is of a lower quality or cost, the Customer may be entitled to a price reduction at the Supplier’s discretion. If the Supplier cannot offer an alternative, it may at its discretion provide a full refund of any payments made for the Service (less any platform, transaction and processing fees that have been incurred).
9.2 If a refund is made to you any reason, the refund shall be made less any platform, transaction and processing fees that have been incurred.
10. CHANGE OF BOOKING BY THE SUPPLIER
10.1 As elements of the Services are planned in advance (in some cases by many months), from time to time the Supplier may need to make a change to the Services. The Supplier reserves the right to do so at any time. Most changes are minor changes, however, occasionally the Supplier will have to notify Customers of a significant change which it is constrained to make to the main characteristics of the Services, or where it cannot fulfil any special requirements which it has accepted.
10.2 In the unlikely event that the Supplier has to make a significant change to the Services, the Customer will be informed as soon as reasonably possible. The Customer will then have the option to:
(a) accept the proposed change.
(b) reject the proposed change and terminate the Contract with a full refund (less any platform, transaction and processing fees that have been incurred); or
(c) reject the proposed change, terminate the Service and take an alternative one if offered. If the Customer decides to take an alternative Service, they will be informed of its impact on the price of the booking.
10.3 The Supplier may not give any of the above options in the event that a change to the purchased Service is not a significant change. Please note that a change of flight time of less than 120 minutes earlier than the departure time and less than 240 minutes later than the arrival time, a change of airline or aircraft (if originally identified), a change of departure or destination airport to one within the same region, or a change of accommodation to another of the same or higher standard usually qualify as minor changes.
11. Unavoidable and Extraordinary Circumstances
11.1 The Supplier shall have no liability to the Customer under this agreement if it is prevented from or delayed in performing its obligations under this Contract, or from carrying on its business or providing the Services as expected for any Unavoidable or Extraordinary Circumstance.
11.2 An “Unavoidable or Extraordinary Circumstance” shall mean any acts, events, omissions or accidents beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (whether involving the workforce of the Supplier or any other party), failure of a utility service or transport or telecommunications network, Act of God, war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage, threat of the spread of any illness or disease or any epidemic or pandemic, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, accident, breakdown of plant or machinery, fire, flood, storm or default of Supplier or sub-contractors.
11.3 Customer is advised to ensure it has appropriate travel insurance in place that covers Unavoidable or Extraordinary Circumstances.
12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: THE CUSTOMER'S ATTENTION IS PARTICULARLY DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE.
12.1 Nothing in this section shall exclude or limit our liability where it is not possible to do so under applicable law. Your statutory rights as a consumer remain unaffected.
12.2 Except as set out in the Contract the Supplier accepts no liability for any claims, losses, expenses, damages or liability for the Services, except in cases of our fraud or involving death, injury or illness where the Supplier has caused such damage with negligence.
12.3 If you have any complaint or claim, you must raise this with us in writing within 30 days of the end of your trip. The limitation period begins on the day on which the trip should end, based on the Contract.

14. GENERAL
14.1 Pack Travel Regulations and Linked Travel Arrangements:

14.1.2 If the Service constitutes a Linked Travel Arrangement under the terms of the Package Travel Regulations, the additional terms applicable to Linked Travel Arrangements and set out Appendix 1 shall apply to our Contract.
14.1.3 Appendix 1 shall not apply to any Services that are not covered by the Package Travel Regulations.

14.3 Variation. Supplier may amend these terms from time to time. Every time you wish to use the Website, please check these terms to ensure you understand the terms that apply at that time.
14.4 Waiver. If Supplier does not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if Supplier delays in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, this does not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent Supplier taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and Supplier does not chase you and/or we continue to provide the Services, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
14.5 Validity. If a court finds any part of these terms illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of the terms are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
