Amendments and cancellations en route must be made with our operators/representatives in the visited destination directly. In the event that a service confirmed by the Company becomes unavailable or is changed by a supplier for whatever reason, the Company does not accept liability for such unforeseen circumstances.

In the case where only one parent is travelling with the child/ren, consent from the other parent in the form of an affidavit, is required. Alternatively, a court order granting full parental rights and responsibilities to the person travelling with the minor, or a death certificate of the other biological parent, must be produced. Airlines will be forced to refuse travel to families not in possession of these documents.

10.5 The Company shall not be bound by any representation, warranty, promise or the like not recorded herein or agreed to in writing. No representation, term, warranty or condition expressed or implied shall be considered to be or have been made or agreed or implied by reference to any other writing, advertisement or conversation.
