ATOL Protected Regulations- Indra Travel ATOL 9376 |
"Many of the flights and flight-inclusive holidays are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. But ATOL protection does not apply to all holiday, and travel services listed. Please ask us to confirm what protection may apply to your booking. If you do not receive an ATOL Certificate, then the booking will not be ATOL protected. If you do receive an ATOL Certificate but all the parts of your trip are not listed on it, those parts will not be ATOL protected. Please see our booking conditions for information, or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: http://www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate."
"Your Financial Protection When you buy an ATOL protected fight or flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong."
"We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable)."
"If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme."

YOUR INFORMATION AND DISCLOURSE OF INFORMATION : |
When making a booking, you will immediately receive a booking acknowledgement. Please check that all names, dates and timings are correct on the acknowledgement and advise us of any errors the same day by contacting us. Please note that we will not accept any responsibility for incorrect information if we are not informed within this timeframe. Any changes to these details will incur an amendment fee of £50 per person in addition to any charges applied by the Travel Provider. Please ensure that the names given at the time of booking are the same as in the relevant passengers passport.
The booking information that you provide to us will be passed on only to the relevant Travel Providers of your travel arrangements or other persons necessary for the provision of your travel arrangements. The information may therefore be provided to public authorities such as customs or immigration if required by them, or as required by law. This applies to any sensitive information that you give to us such as details of any disabilities, or dietary and religious requirements. Certain information may also be passed on to security or credit checking companies for the purpose of payment verification.
If you are travelling to the United States, Canada as well as many other countries, Advance Passenger Information (API) will be required and this information will be passed to your airline who will in turn pass it onto the relevant Customs and Border Protection agency. They will receive this information for the purposes of preventing and combating terrorism and other transnational serious crimes. Please refer to the section specific to API below.
Please note that if you travel outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”), controls on data protection may not be as strong as the legal requirements in the United Kingdom.
If we were not authorised to pass this information to the relevant Travel Providers, whether in the EEA or not, we would be unable to arrange your booking. In making this booking, you consent to this information being passed on to the relevant parties. Full details of our data protection policy are available upon request.

YOUR CONTRACT WITH US : |
Please read this carefully before confirming your booking:
These booking terms and conditions cover all bookings and they will vary depending on whether you make a booking with us for a package holiday or whether you purchase flight only, accommodation only or other separate travel arrangements (“Individual Components”).
If you book Individual Components with us, we will make the booking as agent for the relevant supplier (s) (Travel Provider) (e.g. the airline, hotel supplier, insurance supplier or other ground supplier) and your contract will be subject to the supplier’s own terms and conditions which could limit or exclude liability to you, often in accordance with international conventions. Copies of the supplier’s terms and the international conventions are available on request.
Indra Travel acts as an agent and is not the service provider / operator. When making your booking, Indra Travel will arrange for you to enter into a contract with the principal(s) or other travel supplier(s) (e.g. tour operator / airline / cruise company / accommodation company) named on your receipt(s) or e-ticket(s). Your contract will be subject to the supplier’s own terms and conditions which could limit or exclude liability to you, often in accordance with international conventions. Copies of the supplier’s terms and the international conventions are available on request.
By acting as an agent, this means that we facilitate bookings with those that provide or arrange travel products. If you make a flight only booking with us, your contract will be directly with the airline shown on the e-ticket. As soon as we have issued you with a valid e-ticket, our direct contract with you has been fulfilled. The airline is responsible for the provision of your travel arrangements as well as for any schedule changes and cancellations.
A contract will come into existence between us only once we accept your booking and we receive your full payment. We reserve the right to refuse, at our sole discretion, any booking. For online bookings, the contract will come into existence upon acceptance of the booking conditions presented at the end of the booking process and once we have received full payment.
We reserve the right to cancel any booking if we have made a mistake in relation to the price. We will ensure that we notify you of such mistakes within 24 hours of your booking, provided your travel has not started yet.
Please note that all services offered are subject to availability.
It is your responsibility to ensure that any information which you give us is accurate and that information which is given to you by us or any of our suppliers is passed on to all travellers.

PAYMENT : |
Once a booking is confirmed, payment is required in full.
Please note that scheduled airlines reserve the right to increase prices at any time and the price shown on the confirmation invoice can ONLY be guaranteed once full payment has been received and cleared by us.
