Reservation conditions
(Subject to Articles 95 to 103) Article 1- Tourisme 77 Travel Nature & fonction
Article 11 - Cancellation by the vendor
Tourism 77 Travel is structured to organise and sell tourist services mainly in the areas of Seine et Marne and Paris-Ile de France. These products essentially concern the reception activities, namely welcome, accommodation, restaurant services, entertainment, transfers, guiding and generally speaking all services required within the framework of tourist activity.
When before the start of the break it is cancelled by Tourism 77 Travel, it must notify the purchaser by registered post with acknowledgement of receipt or by fax with request for acknowledgement. The purchaser, without prejudice to any claims for compensation for damages possibly incurred, will be reimbursed immediately without penalties for the amount paid. He will furthermore receive an indemnity at least equal to the penalty he would have paid if he had himself cancelled at that time, save when the cancellation is due to cases of force majeure or to safeguard the travellers. An insufficient number of participants can constitute a valid reason for cancellation for some types of breaks. In this case Tourism 77 Travel reimburses all amounts paid. This possibility could not take place less than 3 weeks before the break commences. These provisions do not apply when an amicable agreement has been reached whereby the purchaser accepts an alternative break offered by the vendor.
Article 2 - Length of break Under no circumstances can the customer signing the fixed term contract exercise any right whatsoever to retain the premises at the end of the break.
Article 3 - Liability Tourism 77 Travel who sells services to the customer is his only interlocutor and is liable to him for the execution of the obligations forming part of these terms and conditions of sale. The reservation service cannot be held liable for acts of God, cases of force majeure or an act by anyone foreign to the organisation or progress of the break.
Article 4 - Reservation
The customer must pay to Tourism 77 Travel the balance of the service agreed which remains due one month before the beginning of the stay. Any customer who has not paid the balance by the date agreed is considered as having cancelled his break, whereupon the service is once more offered for sale. No reimbursement will be made.
When during the break the vendor finds it impossible to supply a preponderant part of the services anticipated in the contract, and which represent a not inconsiderable percentage of the price accepted by the purchaser, Tourism 77 Travel, without prejudice to any claims for compensation for damages possibly incurred, will offer replacement products, all extra costs being paid by it. If the service accepted by the purchaser is of lower quality, Tourism 77 Travel will reimburse him with the difference in price before the end of his break. If the vendor cannot offer replacement products or if they are refused by the purchaser for valid reasons, the vendor will pay the purchaser an indemnity calculated on the same basis as a cancellation by the vendor.
Article 6 - Late registrations
Article 13 - Interrupted break
The reservation becomes firm when a non-refundable deposit of 25% of the price of the break, accompanied by one copy of the sales contract signed by the customer, is returned to Tourism 77 Travel before the expiry date specified on the contract.
Article 5 - Settlement of balance
In the case of registration less than 30 days before the beginning of the break, the full amount will be due at the time of registration.
No reimbursement will be made for a break interrupted by the customer,
Article 14 - Capacity
Article 7 - Exchange voucher Upon receipt of payment for the break, Tourism 77 Travel will send the customer an exchange voucher to be handed to the service provider on arrival, or an acknowledgement of order.

Article 15 - Transfer of contract by the customer
Article 8 - Arrival
Article 9 - Cancellation by the customer
The purchaser can transfer his contract to a transferee who will fulfil the same conditions as him for the realisation of the product. In this case, the purchaser is required to notify the reservation service of his decision by registered post with acknowledgement of receipt at the latest one week before the break. The contract must be transferred at cost price. The transferor and the transferee are jointly responsible towards the vendor for the payment of the balance price as well as possible extra costs incurred due to this transfer.
All cancellations must be notified by registered post, telegram or fax to Tourism 77 Travel. For any customer cancellation the sum retained by Tourism 77 Travel will be as follows:
Article 16 - Insurance
The customer must present himself on the day and at the time specified in the contract or acknowledgement of order.

Any price decrease will be adjusted on the amount remaining due by the purchaser and if payment already made by him exceeds the price of the modified service, the overpayment will be reimbursed to the customer before his break commences.
The customer is responsible for all damage caused by him. He must supply an up-to-date insurance certificate covering his civil liability and that of other customers.

Article 99
The purchaser may transfer the contract to a transferee who fulfils the same conditions as the purchaser himself/herself to benefit from the journey or holiday, as long as the contract has not yet taken effect. Notwithstanding any statement more favourable to the transferor, the transferor is bound to inform the purchase of his decision by recorded delivery letter at least seven days before the beginning of the journey. In the case of a cruise, this period is extended to fifteen days. This transfer is in no way subject to the prior authorisation of the seller.
Article 100
When the contract explicitly contains the possibility of reviewing the prices within the limits laid down in article 19 of the Act of 13th July 1992, it must mention the precise means of calculation for both rises and reductions in the prices and in particular concerning transport costs and related taxes; currency(ies) which may effect the price of the journey or the holiday; the percentage of the price affected by the variation; the currency rate taken into account when drawing up the prices given in the contract.
Article 101
When, before the departure of the purchaser, the seller has no choice but to modify one of the key elements of the contract, such as a significant rise in prices, the purchaser, without prejudice to his/her right to compensation for any damage which may be incurred, and after being so informed by the seller by recorded delivery mail, may: - either cancel the contract and obtain the immediate reimbursement of all sums paid without any penalty whatsoever, - or accept the modification or the substitution journey proposed by the seller: an amendment to the contract stipulating the said modifications will then be signed by both parties. Any reduction in the price is deducted from any amounts remaining due by the purchaser, and, if the payments already made exceed the price of the modified service offered, the excess amount must be settled in his/her favour before the date of departure.
Article 102
In the case provided for in article 21 of the Act of 13th July 1992, when, before the departure of the purchaser, the seller cancels the journey or holiday, he/she must inform the purchaser by recorded delivery mail; without any prejudice to his/her right to claim compensation for any damage which may have been incurred, the purchaser should receive the immediate reimbursement of the sums paid from the seller without any penalty being incurred; in this case, the purchaser receives an indemnity which is at least equal to the penalty he/she would have had to have paid should the cancellation have been made at his/her bidding at this date. The provisions laid down in this article shall not hinder in any way the signing of a friendly settlement, the purpose of which would be the purchaser’s acceptance of a substitution journey or holiday proposed by the seller.
Article 103
When, after the departure of the purchaser, the seller is not in a position to provide a sizeable part of the services scheduled in the contract, representing a significant percentage of the price paid by the purchaser, the seller must take the following measures immediately without prejudice to his/her right to claim for any damage which may be incurred: - either to propose services replacing the scheduled services and possibly accepting to pay any supplement in terms of price, and, if the services accepted by the purchaser are inferior in quality, the seller must reimburse the difference in price as soon as the purchaser returns home, - or, if the seller cannot propose any substitution service or if the said services are refused by the purchaser for valid reasons, to provide the purchaser travel tickets, without any supplement to the price, to ensure his/her return home in conditions which may be considered as being equivalent, to the place of departure or any other place accepted by both parties.
