If for any reason deposits and or balance of payments are not received by A&B by the due date(s) A&B Holidays reserves the right not to make corresponding deposits/ balance of payments as may be required by service providers to secure clients reservations.

After a booking is first confirmed A&B allows one subsequent booking amendment free of amendment fee charge but additional amendments may each incur an amendment fee of $75 (inclusive of GST) and all amendments are subject to any additional charges levied by the relevant service provider(s). If A&B are unable to amend any booking to the clients requirements due to circumstances beyond A&B control and a booking cancellation is desired then cancellation charges will apply. A&B is unable to assist in changing client arrangements after departure from Australia and should changes be desired whilst overseas contact should be made with the relevant service provider listed on the A&B voucher. Clients must be aware that the relevant service provider may levy an amendment fee for any change of arrangements and that no refund is available on return to

Australia if clients cancel or amend travel arrangements whilst overseas furthermore A&B service providers are not authorised to confirm refunds directly to A&B clients. 6 Cancellation provisions Client cancellations • For cancellations made outside of 60 days prior to departure or booking commencement which ever is the later the deposit paid is non refundable • For cancellations made 60 days but not less than 35 days prior to departure or booking commencement whichever is the later the cancellation charge is 50% of the total booking value. • For cancellations made 35 days but not less than 21 days prior to departure or booking commencement whichever is the later the cancellation charge is 75% of the total booking value. • For cancellations made less than 21 days prior to departure or booking commencement whichever is the later the cancellation charge is 100% of the total booking value.

In the event of any such cancellation occurring, alternative services will be offered but if an alternative service acceptable to the client is not available a full refunded will be provided. 7 Unused & extra services No refund will be considered for non-acceptance of pre-booked services once a booking has commenced irrespective of the reason. Where passengers are unable to access any of the services booked due to invalid or mislaid mandatory travel documents (see below), ill health or for any other reason, the unused portion of the booked services are non refundable. A&B will not accept responsibility or make payments for extra services desired by clients after issue of travel documentation ie for any service not stated as included and prepaid on the A&B vouchers. A&B accept no responsibility for costs incurred by clients due to delays and or cancellations by service providers that require clients to make alternative and or additional arrangements not provided by the relevant service provider. It is the clients responsibility to settle these costs as and when they occur direct with the service provider engaged to provide the alternative and or additional requirements. 8 Passports, Visas and other mandatory travel documentation Clients must make all necessary enquiries to ensure they are in possession of all valid mandatory travel documentation prior to commencement of their booking and A&B accepts no responsibility in the event of clients failure to do so. Australian citizens require a current passport, which must be valid for the required period (historically 6 months) after return to Australia. Australian nationals may require visas for Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, The Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia Botswana and Madagascar and other destinations and it is the clients responsibility to obtain all required visas before departure. Non Australian passport holders should check directly with their consulates for visa requirements and must also ensure that they have the correct re-entry documentation for return to Australia and failure to do so can result in the need to cancel travel arrangements and incur cancellation charges. It is absolutely essential that the names of passengers provided to A&B are exactly as they appear in the passenger’s passport. Name changes are considered as a cancellation by airlines and require seats to be re-booked and tickets re-issued which may result in loss of confirmed seating and can incur the client in additional charges. An anti-malarial prophylactic is highly recommended for all African & Indian Ocean countries and it is the client(s) responsibility to ensure that they have all necessary vaccinations and take the appropriate and necessary health precautions prior to travel and that they carry with them all the appropriate mandatory documentation. Clients are responsible for obtaining appropriate advice as to current vaccination requirements as some countries such as those listed below will not allow entry unless the correct and completed Certificate of Vaccination is carried Democratic Republic of Congo and Tanzania: Cholera & Yellow Fever Kenya & Zambia: Yellow Fever South Africa – If entering from Zambia Yellow Fever. Where any booking involve hire car service clients must carry an international driver’s licence. 9 Travel Insurance Cancellation and refund conditions are strictly enforced so A&B strongly recommend clients take out comprehensive travel insurance at the date of booking which covers cancellation and delays due to unforeseen circumstances. Clients are strongly recommended to arrange such cover with their travel agent or their A&B consultant. A&B advise clients to ensure that all pre-existing health conditions and all other relevant matters are declared when applying for insurance. If travel insurance offered by other providers such as credit card companies is used it is recommended careful consideration be given to ensuring that such insurance cover is adequate. 10 Brochure and Website accuracy Rooms, facilities and scenes appearing in the A&B and service providers brochures and websites represent those rooms, facilities and features associated with the hotels, tours and other services offered at the time of compilation of the brochure(s) or website(s) . Photographs and descriptions are accurate at the time of printing/loading and every effort is made to ensure the brochures and website illustrations are as accurate as possible but A&B cannot guarantee that these necessarily depict the rooms, facilities, features or seasonal scenes current at the time the booked service is provided. 11 Privacy In order for A&B to process any booking clients agree that A&B may use any personal information provided by them to A&B such as but not limited to names, gender, age, postal and e-mail addresses, passport details, disabilities, dietary/religious requirements /persuasion etc etc. Such information may also be provided by A&B to security or credit checking companies, and public authorities such as customs and immigration if required by them or by law. On occasion A&B may also use contact details provided to distribute brochures or other travel related material. A&B undertakes not pass on such client information to any person or organisation not involved in service supply relevant to any booking made. 12 Complaints Any complaints while travelling should be made immediately to the relevant service provider’s representative or relevant local authorities. Clients should allow the service supplier the opportunity to directly resolve any complaint at the time it arises but if any complaint remains unresolved, to obtain A&B’s support, clients must lodge a written detailed complaint with the service supplier within 14 days of the date of returning to Australia on completion of any booking. Any complaints that remain unresolved after completion of this procedure must be conveyed to A&B in writing within 28 days of the first date of communication with the service supplier together with all supporting documents and A&B will then endeavour to assist in resolving the matters complained about but cannot guarantee the client a successful outcome.
