Booking Conditions

BOOKING CONDITIONS

Please read these Booking Conditions carefully as they incorporate the basis upon which bookings are accepted by Inverell Coaches. PRICE AND ITINERARY CHANGES

(i) The prices quoted by INVERELL COACHES are subject to change
without notice in the event of unforeseen circumstances such as increases in land and airfare costs, airport charges or government taxes. Make sure you check with your Travel Agent to see if any such changes have occurred in the price or itinerary BEFORE YOU BOOK and WHEN YOUR BALANCE IS DUE.

(ii) Itineraries are subject to alteration if airline schedules are amended, a tour is cancelled by the operator for whatever reason, or other conditions require it. In the unlikely event that we have to cancel your booking because of insufficient numbers booked or because of events outside our control we will, if we are able to, offer you an alternative tour of a similar standard. If you do not accept the alternative, we will refund in full any monies already paid for that particular tour.

(iii) In the event that change(s) cause your holiday to be substantially different from that first booked, you have a right to withdraw from the booking. Whether a cancellation fee is payable or not will depend on when the cancellation occurs and whether the principals concerned levy fees. Every effort will be made to minimise charges.
