YOUR CONTRACT

A 'booking' means any order for products you make on our Site which is accepted by us. Acceptance will be made by Sylhet Travel and a contract concluded when we have received full payment from you and sent a confirmation email from Sylhet Travel. All travel products featured on the Site are subject to availability.

Sylhet Travel RECOMMENDS THAT YOU TAKE OUT ADEQUATE INSURANCE FOR YOUR ENTIRE HOLIDAY.

Flights

Please note that in relation to air fares there are additional terms specific to that fare. For example, 'economy restricted' tickets are normally non-changeable and non-refundable. Flights must be used in the order set out in your itinerary - eg a failure to use the outbound flight or first stage of a journey could invalidate the rest of the ticket.

Please note that, in relation to flight tickets, the recommended minimum check-in time is 3 hours prior to departure for international flights and 90 minutes for domestic flights. Some airlines require you to reconfirm your return flight booking at least 72 hours before travel. Failure to reconfirm your flight booking directly with the airline may result in cancellation.

In addition, the majority of airlines reserve the right to make schedule changes and cancel confirmed bookings. While Sylhet Travel, as Agent, is not responsible for such schedule changes or cancellations, we will provide you with any reasonable assistance you require via our customer services.

We strongly recommend (particularly if you are flying economy class), that you check in early if you have particular seat requests. Sylhet Travel has no control over the allocation of seats, even if pre-booked with the airline, and can make no guarantee that specific seats will be available on departure.

Sylhet Travel is not responsible for the costs of any transfers between airports or terminals that you may incur.

Flights priced at special fares or best prices may not take the most direct route. Some itineraries require a change of aircraft en-route. A flight that is described as direct is one where there is no need to change aircraft during the journey. However, stops may be made en-route for re-fuelling or to let passengers on and/or off.

The times given are given on the 24 hour clock system, approximate and based on outbound flights. They may vary depending on flight schedules, type of aircraft, weather conditions etc., and are indications of the hours spent actually flying (excluding time on the ground during stops en-route or when changing aircraft) and are therefore given for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation.

Regulations vary with each airline, but some will refuse to carry women who will be 28 weeks or more pregnant on the date of return travel. If in doubt, please check with the airline concerned and consult your doctor. Infants must be 6 weeks old or more to travel by air and must either sit on an adult's lap or occupy an infant seat. Please contact the airline you are travelling with for details of appropriate seats. Generally children aged 2 years or more must occupy a seat.

General

As part of the booking process for flight tickets you are given the option to enter the details of any relevant frequent flyer programme of which you are a member. Please note that any such frequent flyer programme is subject to the terms and conditions of the airline through which it is offered. Those terms and conditions may not give rewards on all types of fare and class of service. Please contact the airline in charge of your frequent flyer programme if you are unsure of its terms and conditions.

In relation to the 'special requests' options relating to any product (e.g. meals, disabled facilities, child seats etc.), Sylhet Travel does not guarantee any such requests but will pass these requests on to the Airlines. It is your responsibility to confirm with the Airlines whether such special requests can be fulfilled.

DELIVERY OF YOUR TICKET

E-TICKETS

The ticket will be sent to you via e-mail.

Sylhet Travel rely on the information that you provide as being accurate and therefore cannot be held responsible if your e-ticket does not arrive due to an incorrect email address or your junk email settings. You must notify us immediately if you change your email address or contact telephone number. In addition, please check that the name on your passport matches the name on your ticket and/or booking confirmation.

In exceptional circumstances, Sylhet Travel may not be able to issue airline tickets for confirmed bookings due to ticketing restrictions outside its control. If this occurs we will attempt to notify you within 24 hours of confirmation and organise a refund or arrange an alternative. Where you choose an alternative and it is more expensive than your original booking, you may be responsible for paying the difference.

Please note that you may be required to produce your booking number and/or confirmation email to the relevant Airlines as evidence of your booking.

CANCELLATIONS OR MODIFICATIONS BY YOU TO YOUR BOOKING

The following applies to all tickets booked via our Site:

Your ability to cancel or modify a booked travel product, and the method for doing so, will depend on the specific Airline's terms and conditions. It therefore may not be possible to cancel or modify your tickets or there may be specific requirements you will have to meet.

For flight bookings, you can possibly cancel or modify your booking by telephoning the Sylhet Travel call centre on +44 (0) 0161 256 4040 or emailing them to sales@Sylhet Travel.co.uk. In some circumstances, Sylhet Travel may not be able to cancel or modify a travel product or service unless we receive a written request together with payment of any extra fees and associated charges. Please note that, in relation to flights, a 'no-show' for a flight may result in your ticket being cancelled by the airline and therefore not refundable. Consequently, if you desire to change a flight booking close to the departure time, we strongly recommend that you phone Sylhet Travel and obtain written email confirmation to that change before electing not to travel on the original flight. In the event that you make any alteration to your booking (including, but not limited to, cancellations, refunds, amendments and name changes), Sylhet Travel reserves the right to charge you an administration fee of £25 GBP per person to cover the administration costs incurred by Sylhet Travel. These charges do not include any charges imposed directly by Airlines. Credit card fees and booking fees are non-refundable in the event of cancellation.

If you have used an e-voucher or received a discount when making a booking on the Site, you agree that you have read and accept the e-voucher or discount terms and conditions. Should you make any change to a confirmed booking which was originally made using an e-voucher or discount that e-voucher/discount will become invalid and you may be charged an amount equal to the value of the e-voucher/discount used.

PAYMENT

Full payment for all ticket is required at the time of issuing the ticket. The card holder must be a traveller in that booking for which the payment has been made. Third party credit card payment is not allowed for your booking.

Before payment is received in full, Sylhet Travel is not obliged to issue any tickets, confirmations, vouchers, or other travel documents. However, you shall in all cases remain liable for payment of the amounts agreed for the travel products and services ordered. Sylhet Travel is an IATA Ticketing Agent - your tickets for scheduled flights will be sent to you within 24 hours of payment being accepted.

Payment can be made by all major debit and credit cards (except American Express and Dinners Card) as detailed on the Site. Sylhet Travel reserves the right to charge you in addition for any handling fees we incur in relation to bookings made by credit card. You will be notified of the relevant charges at the time of booking. Sylhet Travel reserves the right to pass on any charges relating to card charge backs.

Failure to supply the correct credit or debit card billing address information may result in the cancellation of your booking, delays to the issue of your tickets and may make the fare(s) subject to increase. Please ensure that the billing address details you give match those on your billing statement.

Further, in an effort to minimise the effects of credit card fraud, we reserve the right to carry out random checks, including checks of the electoral roll, and may request you to either fax or post to us proof of your address and a copy of the credit card and recent statement before issuing any tickets.

REFUND:

Refunds will be processed to the form of payment (card) used at the time of booking.

PASSPORTS, VISAS AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS

It is your duty to check that you are holding valid passport and visa for the country you are travelling.

Some overseas countries have an immigration requirement that your passport is valid for a minimum period after you enter that country, typically 6 months. If your passport has less than a year to run, please ensure you have a passport valid at least for the duration of your trip, although we recommend that you ask the Passport Agency before you travel to make sure. For further information about your UK passport and applications for renewal please visit the UK Passport website at www.ukpa.gov.uk If your passport is in its final year of validity, we advise you confirm the requirements of the destination before making final travel plans.

The name on the passport must match the name on the ticket, otherwise you may not be able to travel. If, after booking a holiday but before travelling, any member of your party changes their name, e.g. as a result of getting married, we must be notified immediately so that we can try to make the necessary changes to your holiday documentation. Also there could be a charge for that.

If you are not a British citizen, you should contact your Embassy for information and advice on the visa requirements of the countries you propose to visit.

Please note: Passport and visa regulations can change and you should therefore check with the relevant embassy well in advance of travel. It is your responsibility to be in possession of a valid passport and if appropriate, a visa. It can often take some time to obtain a visa, so you are advised to apply in plenty of time. We accept no responsibility for customers who do not possess the correct documents.

It is your responsibility to check and comply with any health requirements. We recommend that British Citizens visit the 'Health Advice for Travellers' section of the Department of Health's website at www.dh.gov.uk or speak to their GP. Non-British Citizens should make enquiries at their own country's Department of Health or similar advisory body.
