Terms and Conditions
Terms and Conditions
relating to online purchasing
Ticket Despatch
In order to meet the acceptance
of credit card via mail order conditions, all tickets will be despatched
to the billing address of that credit card.
Price Guarantee
Prices are only guaranteed
once full payment has been received and tickets have been issued.
Prior to this, all booking prices are subject to increase without
notice.
Air Reservations
Many scheduled and most consolidated
air fares carry amendment and cancellation fees sometimes up to
100%. It is important that all clients check the fare rules prior
to confirming their reservations detailed under the fare quote.
Amendments and cancellations cannot be processed until the original
tickets have been returned. Refunds are processed as quickly as
possible. Generally totally unused tickets can be processed by Parador
Travel Management Ltd within 5 working days, but may then take between
6-8 weeks to appear on your credit card statement. In the meantime,
many card issuers will allow the item to be placed in dispute to
avoid interest charges. Parador Travel Management Ltd accept no
liability for interest charges incurred for outstanding refunds.
Partially unused tickets may have to be returned to the issuing
airline to calculate the refund due (if any) which normally takes
6-12 weeks to process. In some isolated cases this can take up to
9 months.
Hotel Reservations
All hotel reservations made
through Parador Travel Management Ltd are guaranteed for late arrival.
This means that if you fail to cancel an unwanted hotel room you
will still be charged as the hotel will hold your room right through
in case you are delayed. Hotels have varying cancellation policies
which range from prior to 6pm on the day to 72 hours prior to arrival
in order to avoid paying for the first night's reservation. Please
ensure that unwanted rooms are cancelled as early as possible to
try to avoid charges.
Insurance
Insurance is 100% non-refundable.
24hour Emergency Assistance
In order to assist our customers,
Parador Travel Management Ltd provide 24 hour emergency assistance
outside our normal office hours of 09:00 to 17:30, Monday to Friday.
Clients should be aware that this service is provided for emergencies
