Flight reservations cannot be made without passenger names. You must, at the time of booking, advise the correct names of all passengers including students and escorts. It is vital that these conform exactly to the name in each passenger’s passport. Name changes after tickets have been issued will result in the issue of new tickets and vouchers and incur amendment charges and may require a higher airfare to be paid. G•E•T Educational Tours can accept no responsibility for any additional charges, or inability to travel as a result of incorrect notification of passenger names.
Airlines, ground handling companies, hotels, hostels, homestay accommodation operators, restaurants and tour operators may impose additional cancellation fees within 65 days of departure. Airline discount booking classes are subject to cancellation fees at any time following confirmation.
We will not refund any unused part of your itinerary including accommodation, transfers, tours, and airfares. Airline refunds following cancellation will be made when the airline completes the refund transaction (this may be in excess of 60 days). The price of your tour is not guaranteed until full payment has been received. Travel Insurance It is a condition of travelling on our international tours that students and escorts are fully covered by comprehensive travel insurance. This should be valid for the full duration of your itinerary. G•E•T Educational Tours offers suitable travel insurance for this tour. Luggage Free luggage allowances will be strictly enforced with excess baggage carried by airlines at their discretion and at passengers own expense. Note most full service airlines offer a 20kg free baggage allowance. Some low cost airlines may offer a lower allowance or levy an additional charge for baggage.

This contract is governed by the law of the State of Victoria.
