In all cases, except where a major change arises due to reasons of force majeure, we will pay compensation which will be decided at the time.

Force Majeure

Our Liability To You

If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed by us or our suppliers we will pay you an appropriate compensation. However, we will not be liable where any failure in the performance of the contract is due to you; or a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel arrangements and where the failure is unforeseeable or unavoidable; or unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been taken, or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not have foreseen or forestall. Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum of 0.5 x times the cost of the specific travel arrangements. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to:

(a) The contractual terms of the companies that provide the transportation for your travel arrangements. These terms are incorporated in this contract; and

(b) Any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, which limit the amount of compensation that you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage.

(c) We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitation of compensation contained in these or any conventions. You can ask for copies of the transport companies’ contractual terms, or the international conventions, from our offices at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ. Under EU law (Regulations 261/2004) you have the rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellations or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. However, reimbursement in such cases will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday cost from us.

Your right to a refund and/or compensation from us is set out in Clause “Our Liability to You” above. If any payments to you are due from us, any payment made to you by the airline will be deducted from this amount. If your airline does not comply with these rules you should complain to the Air Transport Users’ Council on 020 7240 6061 www.auc.org.uk.

Prompt assistance in resort

If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed as a result of failures attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of the services, or as a result of failures due to unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequence of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall, and you suffer an injury or other material loss, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances.

Passport, Visa and Immigration Requirements

Your specific passport and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. We do not accept responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport, visa or immigration requirements. Note: Clients not holding passports marked “British Citizen” must check the applicable requirements with the respective Embassy or Consulate of the countries they are visiting or the British Foreign Office. Please ensure that you comply with the applicable passport and visa requirements and that you allow sufficient time to obtain them.

Machine readable passports are required for all travellers to or via the U.S. All children must have their own passports especially when travelling to the U.S. All passports must be valid for at least six (6) months by the end of your journey. Note: Clients travelling to the U.S. must apply and obtain their visa prior to departure on the following website https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov (there will be a charge for this service).

For regular updates on visa requirements to other destinations or any conflicts in particular regions we recommend you check with the Foreign Commonwealth office website http://www.fco.gov.uk or call them on 0207 270 1500. Recommended inoculations for travel may change at any time and you should consult with your doctor or the appropriate Embassy or Consulate for up to date information. It is your responsibility to ensure that you obtain all the necessary inoculations in relation to your trip.

Flights

1. Details of likely airlines, flight numbers and destination airport will be shown on your confirmation invoice, However we are not always in a position at the time of booking to confirm the carrier(s), aircraft type and flight timings which will be used in connection with your flight. We shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this.

2. The carrier (s), flight timings and type of aircraft shown on this site and on your ATOL receipt are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation.

3. Updated carrier and flight timings will be shown on your tickets which will be emailed to you 08 weeks prior to travel. In further cases of time change, we will update you as soon as possible if this occurs.

4. Any change in the identity of the carrier(s), flight timings, and/or aircraft type will not entitle you to cancel or change to other arrangements without paying applicable charges.

5. Please note that no airline is able to guarantee departure times and these may change due to inclement weather conditions, air traffic control restrictions, technical/operational problems. The Company is not liable for any change to a departure/arrival time previously shown on your confirmation. It is for this reason that you are required to reconfirm your flight departure time 72 hours before departure with the airline concerned.

6. HolidayFloridas is also unable to make any special arrangements for passengers if the flight is delayed as this is the sole responsibility of the carrying airline &/or their ground handling agent. We regret that we are unable to guarantee specific aircraft types or seat allocation.

Seat Selection

Some airlines offer pre-seat selection and we can accept your seating requests when you book with us. Our team will gladly assist you to get the best possible seats on the aircraft, however, we have no control over the airline’s seat inventory and hence are unable to guarantee any specific seats or seat types on the aircraft.

Any unavailability in your seat choice will not entitle you to cancel or change to other arrangements without paying applicable charges.

Resort Fees

It is very common for hotels to charge resort fees or service charges from guests, which is to be paid locally and not while booking with Holiday Floridas. In such possibilities we do our best to inform you of any resort fees that you might be asked to pay, but take no responsibility for the knowledge or payment of resort fees. If you are unsure of the amount or as to whether resort fees will be payable please ask your travel consultant and we will do our best to advise you.

Villa Holidays

Please be informed that additional terms and conditions apply to Villa Holiday Bookings when you book one of our Named/Exact Villas, which are as follows-

1. Even after confirmation of a booking, in rare situations we may have to relocate your villa booking due to various operational/circumstantial reasons. These include, but are not limited to - sale of villa booked/change of the property owner or management company, change in contracts, major changes in the condition of the property and refurbishment. In such cases, we would relocate you to another villa or similar or higher quality. If a similar quality villa is not available, we will offer you villas of higher quality/range and absorb any increase in cost up to 10%. Any increase in cost after that shall be passed on to you.

2. In some unlikely situations, when we book a holiday package along with flights and other ground arrangements, we are unable to offer a full refund, as the rest of the holiday components are booked and paid with separate suppliers. Thus, while booking a Named Villa as part of your package, you agree to either accept an alternative villa if a need arises (at least two options of similar or higher standard will be offered) or take a refund of the villa cost only and keep the rest of the holiday.

3. When you book a villa holiday, we offer you a price based on the number of guests you are booking. If you choose to cancel 1 or more guests from the booking, we will need to re-price the complete holiday and this may increase the per person price for the remaining guests as the price of the villa may not change for less number of guests than the original booking.

Insurance

As the Company is not liable for flight delays, cancellations, lost or delayed luggage, industrial disputes, natural disasters etc it is an expressed term of this contract that you and all members of your party are adequately insured.

Excursions

Excursions or other tours that you may choose to book or pay for locally whilst you are on holiday are not part of your package holiday provided by us. For any excursion or other tour that you book locally your contract will be with the operator of the excursion and not with us and we will not be held responsible for anything that happens during the course of an excursion purchased locally.

Special requests and Medical Problems

If you have any special requests (eg low/high floor, inter-connecting rooms etc) please advise us at the time of booking. Although we will forward any such requests to the relevant supplier (eg hotel, airline etc) we regret that we cannot guarantee this prior to departure and any failure to meet your special request will not be deemed as any breach of contract on our part. If you have any medical condition or disability which may affect your booking arrangements you must advise us, in writing, at the time of booking giving us full details. If we are unable to properly accommodate your particular needs we will reserve the right to decline your booking but obviously every effort will be made to assist, where possible.

Ticket Dispatch

Please note that it is now mandatory for customers to be emailed an e-ticket for all routes where an e-ticket is available. Note: An e-ticket is a paperless electronic ticket, it is paperless because when you book the details they are safely stored in the airlines booking system so there is no need to send you a paper ticket.

Your travel documents (e-ticket, accommodation voucher, transfer voucher, etc.) will be emailed to the party leader approximately 08 weeks prior to departure but will not be released until we have received full payment from you. An email itinerary will be emailed and is the party leader’s responsibility to pass this onto the members of the party travelling as it will be required at check in along with an acceptable form of identification. Note: Acceptable forms of identification – Passport or Passport replacing Travel Document issued by the relevant authority.

Credit Cards

It is mandatory that you or a member of your party travel with a recognised credit card as this will be required when checking into hotels or collecting your hire car, for example.

Map/Distance Disclaimer

Please note that the information as to the distance from the city centre and the location of the hotel on the maps provided is for indicative purposes only. If you require the hotel to be within a certain distance from the city centre or near a particular location we recommend that you check on the hotel’s own website.

Behaviour

* It is the party leader’s responsibility to ensure that you and all members of your party do not behave in a way which causes offense to others or which risks damage to the property belongings whilst on the holiday.

* In case of any misconduct or misbehaviour due to alcohol consumption, misuse of drugs or general misbehaviour, the airline/ hotel/ villa reserves all the rights to prevent you from utilizing your aircraft seat and/ booked accommodation. In such cases, we will be entitled to terminate the holiday of the person(s) concerned. Full cancellation charges will apply (if applicable) and any extra costs incurred in making alternative arrangements will be payable by you.

* In case aforesaid wrongful conducts, where the person(s) concerned are required to leave the accommodation, Holiday Floridas will not take any further responsibility, including any travel arrangements. No refunds will be made in such scenarios and we will not pay any expenses or costs incurred as a result of the termination.

* You will be liable to reimburse any damage or loss whatsoever incurred as a result of you or any of your party members unacceptable behavior while on the holiday. Payment in such backdrops must be paid directly to the service supplier concerned failing which, you will be responsible for meeting any claims subsequently made against us (together with our own and the other party’s legal costs) as a result of your actions.

Pre-travel advice

The Foreign Commonwealth Travel Advice Unit may have issued information about your holiday destination. You are advised to check this information on BBC (Cefax) page 470 or on their website www.fco.gov.uk.

Telephone calls

We would like to inform our clients that we randomly record telephone calls. This helps us to ensure that customer service is constantly improved.

Hotel and Cruise Ship ratings

The hotel and cruise ship ratings featured in any HolidayFloridas website are offered as a general guide and do not necessarily represent any official grading system. Actual standards may vary between hotels of the same grade in different countries and even in the same country. Different countries have different standards; a 5* hotel in one country is not necessarily equivalent to a 5* hotel in another country.

Please note that the hotels and cruise ships booked by us for you are not exclusive to HolidayFloridas We are not responsible for any limitation in facilities because of other hotel, or ship guests or their activities. HolidayFloridas does not take responsibility for hotel or ship content (including images, facility listings etc) displayed on our website. Hotels and ships may change facilities and property features without prior notification to HolidayFloridas. Images of room or cabin types do not necessarily represent the bed configuration of the room being purchased. For example, a quad room in North America may invariably consist of two double beds and a room for two will be one double, although in Europe this may be two single beds. Also, there may be an additional charge for extra beds or cots. Therefore, if you have a special requirement please inform us at the time of booking and any special request will be forwarded to the supplier for consideration but is not guaranteed by us and does not form any part of our contract with you.

Carrying Proof of Booking

You should ensure that you travel with your booking confirmation, e tickets and any other travel documentation (including your passport and relevant visa, if required) at all times.
