1. MINIMUM SERVICE FEE – Client agrees to pay a nonrefundable service fee for engaging Skyn Sweets Travels LLC, which fee is payable upon signing this authorization. This service fee is owed regardless of whether client actually books any travel reservation or even if Client cancels a reservation.
There are 4 levels of service fees:
a) for services involving a simple roundtrip airline ticket from destination A to destination B, the service fee is $50 per person;
b) for air-only services more than a simple roundtrip ticket from destination A to destination B, the service fee is $75 per person;
c) for services that combine any combination of air, hotel, rail, car, or tour services, the service fee is $150-200 per person depending on the complexity of trip; and
d) for all other bookings, including excursions, flight changes, product/service sourcing, etc; the service fee is $30-$50 per service.
2. AGENCY – Your attention is drawn to the fact that Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC, is a travel agency and as such acts only as an agent and never as a principal. It acts as an agent for its suppliers, including, but not limited to, all airlines, tour operators, other transporters, providers of accommodation and/or other services, insurers, and dealers in foreign currency. All business which it transacts is on behalf of its principals and accordingly any claim which any customer may have arising out of any business transacted by or through Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC, will lie against the principal and not against Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC. Seat assignments on plane can be requested, but never guaranteed. Passenger can log-in onto respective airline website to check or modify seat assignments. It is ultimately the responsibility of the passenger to check most current flight schedules prior to departure. Often, airlines can make unexpected schedule changes or cancellations that are not always reflected in the travel agent reservations system and agent is not notified of these changes. If you are having trouble confirming a flight time, please ask your travel agent for assistance.
3. TRAVEL INSURANCE – We strongly recommend travel insurance for all travelers, particularly considering the majority of airlines and tour operators have extremely high cancellation/date change penalties. Travel insurance should be purchased at time of deposit or payment for travel arrangements. We believe high medical insurance coverage is essential for all travel. We do not feel credit card travel insurance is adequate coverage, especially with regard to comprehensive medical coverage and cancellation coverage. Please check with us for further details, but note that we are not insurance experts and accordingly do not make any warranty concerning the adequacy or extent of any coverage under any policy which we sell. Customers are advised to read and become acquainted with the policy documents, and any queries should be directed to the insurer for clarification. Specimen copies of all policies sold by us are available from our consultants for consideration by the customer prior to a decision being made to acquire the policy.
4. PASSPORTS – You must arrange your own passport. Please ensure that it is valid for at least six months beyond the end of your traveling period. Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC, bears no responsibility for incorrect passport or immigration documentation.
5. VISAS – Visas are required for entry into many countries, and it is the responsibility of the customer to check with the consulate of each country to be visited in order to establish its visa requirements.
6. HEALTH – See your local doctor for recommended medical and vaccination advice.
7. CANCELLATIONS – Any change to a reservation (date change, rerouting, etc.) constitutes a cancellation. Please be advised that cancellations incur charges. To change a single component of your reservation after trip has been booked and confirmed a $50 per person service fee will apply. To cancel an itinerary entirely, a $150 per person service fee will apply. Client acknowledges that fees imposed by the airline, hotel, rail, car, or tour operator due to a cancellation can be up to 100% of the total trip cost purchased. These fees are in addition to the Minimum Service Fee described in paragraph 1. Please note that airline/wholesaler refunds can take up to twelve (12) weeks.
8. INCREASES – Please note that all airfares and tour operator rates are subject to change without notice until payment has been made in full. Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC, therefore cannot warrant that prices will not change and any increase must be borne and paid for upon demand either by Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC, the airline, the tour operator or the supplier of the service.
9. PASSENGER AND CREDIT CARD AMENDMENTS – In the best interests of the client, it is crucial to inform Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC, immediately of any changes to the passenger list and to review the list on a regular basis. Please provide Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC with current and valid credit card information once credit card on file has expired or is no longer a valid card. This form will also be kept on file to serve as credit card authorization for all other travel arrangements made with Skyn Sweets Travels, LLC.
