Booking Guidelines: - No bookings
will be accepted within 2 (two) days of departure. We
only accept online bookings. - E-Tickets are
currently available for internet bookings for most
itineraries. - If the passenger desires a paper
ticket when an e-ticket is available there is an extra
charge which varies by airline.
Fare Guarantees: - Fares are not
guaranteed until ticketing; we process all bookings
before 3:00PM EST. Bookings received after this time or
over the weekend will be processed the following
business day. In the event of a credit card transaction
being declined for any reason, we cannot issue the
ticket until we receive a valid form of payment. -
Fares are subject to change at any time, without notice;
unless the fare is ticketed, the price might change even
within minutes or hours of your booking and we are not
responsible for increases/drops in the fares. Your
credit card will not be charged if the price changes
without your authorization. - If for any reason we
cannot ticket the itinerary you booked at the same price
we will not charge your credit card and we will contact
you with alternatives. - We may rebook certain
itineraries due to routing problems or schedule changes.
The new itinerary will be emailed to the passenger.
Changing Airports in your Itinerary:
Be aware that in order to get the lowest available
fare the system could display options where you will
need to switch airports. You can sometimes save big
money by changing airports but keep in mind that
airlines do NOT provide transportation. This cost will
be at your expense and you will have to claim your
luggage from one airport and re-check it in at the other
airport. You will also need to allow for a minimum of 3
hours to change airport, barring there are no delays on
your flights.
Children Policy Children less
than 2 years will sit in your lap. If you prefer seats
for your children, select child's age 2 and up from the
booking engine.
Discounts for infants and children:
Our child policy allows only two children (paying a
child discount fare) per adult. If more than two
children are traveling per adult, they will have to pay
the total adult fare. Only 1 infant is permitted per
adult. If more than 1 infant is traveling per adult you
automatically pay child fares if the fare rule permits
it; otherwise the second infant will pay the total adult
fare.
Airline Schedules: Airlines can
change schedules at any time. Please confirm your
outbound travel 3 days before departure. Please
reconfirm you return travel 2 days before departure just
in case of schedule change.
Payments: - Your credit card
statement may reflect more than one transaction, one
from the airline and others from our suppliers, but
always for the same total price. - We accept the
following credit cards: American Express, Visa,
MasterCard, Discover and Diners Card - If a debit/
check card is submitted by the client we are not
responsible for any bank overdraft fees or any other

Shipping & Delivery: - The
vast majority of itineraries can be e-ticketed. We
therefore do not ship you any documents unless your air
itinerary cannot be e-ticketed. If your air itinerary
cannot be e-ticketed we ship the paper tickets and we
will add the appropriate shipping charges to the cost of
your trip. - We charge $15 for FedEx two-day

caused by the delivery company. - If the shipping

these charges will be automatically processed in the
same credit card provided at time of booking.
Changes, cancellations, and refunds:
- Tickets are NOT refundable and no changes are
permitted to ORIGIN/STOPOVER OR DESTINATION POINTS.
- On rare occasions, SOME FARES DO NOT ALLOW
ANY CHANGES UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES (not even with a
penalty allowed by regular fares); on these
rare occasions, should you choose to make any changes,
you will lose the ticket; - If changes are
permitted, all flight cancellations should be made up to
48 hours before ticketed departure date; the value of
unused tickets can be applied towards the purchase of a
new ticket using the same airline if the passenger
cancels the reservation at least 48 hours before the
departure date; change fees plus fare differences will
apply. Fees may differ by destination or airline;
generally, penalties are $175.00 for Latin America and

Name Changes: - Name changes are
not permitted. Please verify the accuracy of all
information before submitting a booking for ticketing.
We are unable to absorb fees imposed by carriers for the
reissue of tickets due to incorrect information or to
correct spelling errors. It is the responsibility of the
passenger to ensure the accuracy of information

passengers' names and ages be matched and double-checked
against the traveler's passport information at the time
