unscheduled extension to the final itinerary caused by flight rescheduling,
flight delays, bad weather, strikes or any other cause which is beyond the
control of FAH its agents or the Principal, any EXPENSES RELATING TO SUCH
UNSCHEDULED EXTENSIONS (HOTEL ACCOMMODATION ETC.) WILL BE FOR THE CLIENT’S
ACCOUNT. The Client should confirm whether any of these expenses may be covered
by travel insurance, should this be applicable. it is the Client’s
responsibility to confirm the specific provisions of the travel insurance. In
most instances the Principal/s should make the change/s/disruption/s known to
FAH and in the event that such does occur FAH and in this instance, time
permitting,ill make every effort to pass this information onto you using the
contact details provided at the time of making the booking. Please note that it
is the Principal’s duty to inform the person who made the booking of any
changes to the booking, however there are times when this information is not
timeously relayed so it is important to ensure that when travelling you have
access to the email address used at the time of making the booking.It is also
recommended that both 72 hours and 24 hours before flying you confirm your
itinerary both when departing from your country of origin and when making your
return journey. Once checked in you will be notified in the unlikely event of
changes to your flight. FAH annot be held liable for failing to advise you of
any changes, even when these changes had been communicated by the Principal/s
to us as there may be delays in relaying this information to you, due to operating
hours or technical delays.Itinerary Variations and Transfers.While every effort
is made to keep to the final itinerary, the Principals reserve the right to
make changes intended for the Client’s convenience e.g. in some cases, weather
conditions can necessitate an alteration in the itinerary. Any such variations
in the final itinerary do not constitute any reason for a refund and FAH shall
NOT BE HELD LIABLE for any such variations. IT IS THE CLIENT’S RESPONSIBILITY
to check each amendment to the itinerary. NO REFUNDS will be considered in any
circumstances whatsoever by FAH. Refunds by the Principals will be subject to
their respective terms and conditions.will charge a fee for processing a
request for refund. Principals may charge refund fees above those stated here.
Some air tickets are completely non-refundable according to airline fare rules.
Cancellations for any reason whatsoever, including medical reasons, death in
the family, strikes, wars, weather, natural disasters, airline default or government
travel warnings will not entitle you to any refund in the case of
non-refundable tickets nor of waiving the cancellation penalties in the case
that the tickets can be refunded. If tickets can be refunded, cancellation
penalties are imposed by the airline. Trip cancellation and interruption
insurance are therefore highly recommended. For the best coverage, travel
insurance should be purchased at the same time as the airline tickets. Once we
have established the possible refund you are entitled to, we will request it
with the airline or hotel on your behalf. For flight bookings the refund will
be made by the airline directly to the account the booking was originally paid
with. This can take as long as 6 (six) months to a year or longer to obtain
from the airline. Standard processing time for refunds is 6 to 8 weeks
depending on the airline. For hotel bookings, the supplier will refund FAH and
we will refund the credit card you used when making your reservation. This
usually takes approximately 4 weeks with no guarantee refunds are at the
discretion of the principal and as per their terms and conditions.Limitation of
