Please notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

3. Booking and Payment

3.1 Booking Process

When you make a Booking through our Services, you are entering into an agreement with the relevant Travel Suppliers, not with MonisParaf Travel. We act as an intermediary between you and the Travel Suppliers. By making a Booking, you authorize us to act as your agent in making arrangements with Travel Suppliers on your behalf.

3.2 Booking Confirmation

A Booking is not confirmed until we send you a written confirmation. Please review all details in the confirmation carefully. You are responsible for notifying us of any errors or discrepancies immediately upon receipt.

3.3 Payment Terms

Full payment or a deposit (as specified during the booking process) is required to confirm your Booking. The payment amount and schedule will be communicated to you before you complete your Booking. All prices are in Australian Dollars (AUD) unless otherwise specified.

3.4 Service Fees

We charge service fees for our booking and planning services. These fees will be clearly disclosed to you before you complete your Booking. Service fees are non-refundable unless stated otherwise.

3.5 Price Changes

Prices of travel services are subject to change until your Booking is confirmed. Even after confirmation, prices may change due to factors beyond our control, such as currency fluctuations, government taxes, or Travel Supplier surcharges. If a price increase exceeds 10% of the total Booking value after confirmation, you may have the option to cancel with a full refund.

4. Cancellations, Changes, and Refunds

4.1 Cancellation Policy

Cancellation policies vary depending on the Travel Suppliers involved in your Booking. The specific cancellation policy applicable to your Booking will be communicated to you before you complete your Booking. In general:

  • Cancellations made 60 days or more before departure may be eligible for a full or partial refund, minus applicable service fees
  • Cancellations made 30-59 days before departure may be subject to a cancellation fee of up to 50% of the Booking value
  • Cancellations made within 30 days of departure may be subject to a cancellation fee of up to 100% of the Booking value

4.2 Changes to Bookings

Changes to confirmed Bookings (such as dates, accommodation, or traveler details) may be subject to availability and additional fees imposed by Travel Suppliers. Change requests must be submitted in writing, and we cannot guarantee that all change requests can be accommodated.

4.3 Refunds

Refund processing times vary depending on the payment method and Travel Supplier policies. Credit card refunds typically take 7-14 business days to process. Some Travel Supplier refunds may take up to 12 weeks to process.

4.4 Force Majeure

We are not liable for any failure to perform our obligations, or for any delay, cancellation, or change to your travel arrangements due to events beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, adverse weather conditions, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, strikes, and governmental actions. In such cases, refunds will be subject to the policies of the relevant Travel Suppliers.

5. Travel Requirements and Responsibilities

5.1 Travel Documents

You are responsible for ensuring that you have all necessary travel documents, including valid passports, visas, and health certificates required for your journey. We may provide general information about these requirements, but it is your responsibility to verify and comply with all travel document requirements.

5.2 Passport Requirements

For international travel, most countries require that passports be valid for at least six months beyond the date of entry. You must ensure your passport meets this requirement.

5.3 Health and Safety

You are responsible for assessing and addressing any health or safety concerns related to your travel. This includes obtaining recommended vaccinations, medications, and medical clearance if necessary. We recommend consulting with a travel medicine specialist before traveling to international destinations.

5.4 Travel Insurance

We strongly recommend that you purchase comprehensive travel insurance to protect against unforeseen circumstances, including trip cancellation, medical emergencies, and baggage loss. Travel insurance is not included in our Services unless explicitly stated in your Booking confirmation.

6. Travel Supplier Terms and Conditions

Each Travel Supplier has its own terms and conditions that apply to your Booking. These may include policies regarding check-in/check-out times, baggage allowances, cancellations, and conduct during travel. You agree to comply with all terms and conditions imposed by Travel Suppliers, which are incorporated by reference into these Terms.

7. Limitation of Liability

7.1 Agency Relationship

MonisParaf Travel acts solely as an agent for the Travel Suppliers. We are not responsible for the acts, errors, omissions, representations, warranties, breaches, or negligence of any Travel Suppliers or for any personal injuries, death, property damage, or other damages or expenses resulting therefrom.

7.4 Limitation of Liability Amount

In no event shall our total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action exceed the amount paid by you to us for the specific Booking giving rise to the claim. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
