T & C’s
Please take time to read carefully the following terms and conditions for your own information and protection. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have read and understood the various terms associated with your contract before placing any bookings.
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The flights (excluding low cost flights) shown on this site are ATOL protected by the Civil Aviation Authority. We act as agents for licensed tour operators. As travel and booking agents we act only as Agents for the Principals actually providing the relevant services and with whom your contract will be made. We shall not be liable for any act or default on the part of such a Principal or its agents or servants. All holidays shown are subject to availability.
Your Holiday Contract
When you make a booking you guarantee that you have the authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the terms of these booking conditions. A contract will exist as soon as the booking is confirmed. This contract is made on the terms of these booking conditions, which are governed by English law, and the jurisdiction of the English Courts.
Like2travel.com acts at all times as a booking agent on behalf of the supplier(s) involved with your holiday booking. As a booking agent, the company's role is to ensure that all travel components/services booked correspond with what has been agreed with you at the time of booking. In the case of those components/services deviating from what has been agreed due to the supplier(s') inability to honour the contract, then like2travel.com will open a communication dialogue between the relevant supplier(s) and the customer and will not be liable for any compensation claims. In this context, like2travel.com cannot be held responsible for any changes imposed by the suppliers nor can be considered liable for any omissions/mistakes, unless the latter occur due to our negligence. Ultimately, the customer will enter into a trading relationship with like2travel.com, which will be restricted solely to the above mentioned role of the company as a booking agent, as well as with the various suppliers involved who will have the responsibility to provide in full the services/products advertised at the time of booking. The standard international practice regarding check-in and check-out times is to let rooms from midday to midday. However times frequently vary depending on establishment. Check-in times are usually between 2pm and 3pm, check-out times between 11am and 12 noon on the day of departure. Therefore, if you check in to the accommodation immediately after a night time flight, this would normally count as one night's accommodation, and hence the hotel must be booked from the day before. Similarly if your return flight is at night you will normally be required to vacate your room at 12 noon prior to leaving for the airport. Day rooms are subject to availability/cost and should be arranged locally with the accommodation management.
Payments & Deposits
If you book more than 12 weeks before your arrival date, you have the choice when booking your holiday, of paying a deposit based on the airline, hotel and transfer supplier chosen, to secure the booking. Unless you advise us that you wish to cancel your booking before the balance due date, we will automatically take payment from your credit card of the balance due. By agreeing to these booking conditions, you consent to this procedure. We reserve the right to levy a percentage of the transaction value where payments are made by credit card.
If you choose to pay by deposit, you will only need to pay the standard deposit amount for the supplier. This ranges from £50 to £500 per person and is included in the deposit amount quoted by the site. Bookings with transfers and low cost suppliers need to be paid in full at the time of booking and will be non-refundable.
Changes and Cancellations
Bookings made with low cost carriers are subject to 100% cancellation charges from the moment they are booked. Transfers are also subject to 100% cancellation charge from the moment they are booked. Other amendments or changes to your booking must be received in writing from the lead named passenger. Charges may be levied by the tour operator or by your chosen suppliers, for which you will be advised at the time of the amendment. In addition, like2travel.com reserves the right to apply additional charges in the event of cancellations or amendments, as outlined in the table below. The latter will have an immediate effect from the moment you place a booking through us. Please note that any incorrect information on the documentation received from us, must be brought to the attention of like2travel.com, within seven days of the date of issue of the received documents. We will not accept responsibility if you neglect to check the validity of all the information provided after the time period specified above. Failure to draw the correct information to our attention will impose the following charges, in addition to the tour operator's terms and conditions. Cancellation fee: £55 per person or loss of deposit, whichever is the greater + Airline/Hotel Charge. Cancellations within 2 weeks of departure : 100% Cancellation Charge. Any other Amendment: £35 per Amendment + Airline/Hotel/Hostel Charge. Amendment Name change: Airline/Hotel/Hostel Charge. As like2travel.com act as booking agents for the individual elements of your holiday and as customers are required to agree to the Terms & Conditions of the relevant supplier at the time of booking, we are therefore not defined as the 'Principal' within the Package Travel Regulations.
Insurance
We recommend that all passengers are adequately insured before travelling abroad. The latter is usually a prerequisite for most tour operators, who reserve the right to deny travel when proof of insurance cannot be provided. Please use the click through button to our recommended insurance providers who also offer insurance to cover any provider going out of business and therefore protecting either your holiday or money.
Flights, times and tickets
Flight times and prices shown are provisional and may be subject to change, as per the tour operator's booking conditions. Any changes in flight prices from the time of search will be indicated on the booking page before you make payment. For flight only bookings, please re-confirm your flight times 48 hours prior to departure as per the tour operator's/airline's instructions. This applies to both your outbound and inbound journey, as changes to flight times may occur while you are abroad. Tickets are generally issued by the tour operator between ten and fourteen days prior to departure, however they still reserve the right to issue documents at the airport. Please contact us one week prior to your departure if you have not received any travel documents. You are subject to the airline supplier's terms and conditions upon booking.
Passports, UK citizens, visas and health
Passengers must be in possession of a valid passport and necessary visa(s) and health certificates, unless you are participating on one of the overland tours where visas are obtained as you travel. In case of passengers being refused entry by any immigration or other authority all repatriation costs are to be borne by the passenger. All rates on like2travel.com are for UK passengers only. It is very important you carry the right documentation with you such as your passport or equivalent ID card. like2travel.com cannot be held responsible for any problems at the check-in if these documents are not coherent with the restrictions mentioned. At the time of booking it is the customer's responsibility to advise us of any special mobility requirements for flights, transfers or hotels. Please note however, these cannot be guaranteed. If you need any more information regarding passports, please check the Identity and Passport Service for more information http://www.ukpa.gov.uk
Customer Service
We hope your travel arrangements run as smoothly as possible and that you will enjoy your holiday. However, if you have a complaint while you are in the resort, you must first report it immediately to the local representative of the supplier or to the accommodation management. If the problem cannot be resolved on the spot you should make a written complaint to the supplier's representative in the resort and report the matter in writing to like2travel.com within 14 days of returning to the UK. Please note that you should allow 28 days so that all issues raised can be concluded and resolved.
Force Majeure
We will not make compensation payments for any cancellation/changes caused as a result 'force majeure'. Force Majeure means any inability by us to perform our contractual obligations resulting from any cause or reason whatsoever beyond our reasonable control. This includes, but is not limited, to acts of war (whether war is declared or not), the threat of war, riots, civil disturbances, industrial disputes, terrorist activity, natural disasters, fire, technical problems to transport, airline failure, closure or disruption to airspace or airport.
Data Protection Policy
We have taken every possible measure to ensure the confidentiality of your personal information. However, some of the details must be passed to the suppliers associated with your holiday, such as your tour operator, airline, hotel, transport company, insurance provider etc. The information may also be provided to security or credit checking companies, public authorities such as customs/immigration, if required by them, or as required by law. Please note that once your information is passed onto the suppliers associated with your holiday, the information becomes subject to their data protection policy.
