Responsibility: Bonjour Travel is responsible to you for arranging all included transportation, accommodations and other services.  However, in the absence of negligence on its part, Bonjour Travel is not responsible for personal injury, property damage, or any other loss, claim or damage arising out of  or related to goods or services offered or included. Bonjour Travel is not responsible for personal injury, property damage or any other loss, claim or damage related to or arising out of, in whole or in part, the acts of omissions of any direct air carrier, hotel, ground operator, or other person not its direct employee or not under its exclusive control supplying any services or providing any goods offered or included.  Bonjour Travel is not responsible for personal injury, property damage or any other loss, claim or damage arising out of, either in whole or part, acts of God, weather, labor strife, government actions, mechanical breakdowns, war-like acts, terrorist activities or other causes reasonably beyond the control of Bonjour Travel.  Bonjour Travel is not responsible for incidental or consequential losses or damages. 

Payment:  A deposit in the amount shown on the reservation form and a signed contract for each person is required to secure reservations. Final payment is due as shown on the reservation form.  If the flight is fully booked, your payment will be returned, or with your authorization, your name placed on a waiting list.  All checks and money orders are to be made payable as indicated on the reservation form.  Confirmation is subject to receipt by Bonjour travel of both deposit and signed contract. 

Prices:  Bonjour Travel reserves the right to increase prices in the event of a fuel related surcharge imposed by the airlines or if the dollar falls below the one to one ratio (one euro for one dollar).  Bonjour Travel reserves the right, if necessary or advisable, to substitute air carriers, but is not obliged to do so. 

Baggage:  Bonjour Travel cannot be held responsible for luggage lost or damaged.  You should give immediate notice to the involved air carrier, hotel, ground operator and to your own insurance company. 

Aircraft boarding: This flight will be performed using a U.S. certified air carrier. The air carrier reserves the right to substitute equipment but is not obliged to do so.  Bonjour Travel cannot be held responsible for airline delays.

Aircraft boarding privileges are limited to persons whose full payment and signed contract have been received by Bonjour Travel and whose names are on the manifest given to the air carrier prior to departure.  All travelers must provide proof of identity and a passport valid for travel from the Unites states to the international destinations served prior to boarding.  Improper travel documentation, inadequate proof of identity, inadequate proof of age for children appearing under 2, or any other reason may result in denial of boarding privileges.  The air carrier reserves the right to decline, accept or retain any person on the flight at any time within their sole discretion.  If you are denied boarding privileges, you forfeit all monies paid and will be assessed any non-recoverable costs. 

Insurance: Trip cancellation, health and accident insurance is available and may protect you against unforeseen circumstances which cause you to interrupt or cancel your trip. 

Changes:  Except for circumstances that make it impossible to perform, Bonjour Travel cannot cancel within 10 days of departure date.

If cancelled by Bonjour Travel, and you have paid deposits and are holding confirmed reservations at the time of cancellation, you are entitled to a full refund of all monies paid.

If we make major changes prior to departure you have the right to cancel and receive a full refund.  The following are major changes: 1) a change in departure or return date, unless the change results from a flight delay experienced by the carrier (if the delay is longer than 48 hours, it will be considered a major change; 2) a change in the origin or destination city, unless the change affects only the order in which cities named are visited, 3) a price increase of more than 10 percent occurring 10 or more day days before departure.  In no event can we increase your price less than 10 days before departure.

If a major change must be made, we will notify you within seven days after first learning of the change, but in any event at least 10 days prior to the scheduled departure.  If less than 10 days before departure we become aware that a major change must be made, we will notify you as soon as possible.  Within 7 days after receiving notification of a major change but in no event later than departure on the initial flight, you may cancel your reservation and you will receive a full refund within 14 days after cancellation.  If a major change occurs after the departure of the initial flight which you are unwilling to accept, you will be refunded, within 14 days after your scheduled return date, that portion of your payment which applies to the services not accepted.

If we must cancel we will notify you in writing within seven days of the cancellation, but in no event later than ten days before the scheduled departure date of the initial flight.  We have no right to cancel less than 10 days before departure, except for circumstances that make it impossible to perform.  If that occurs, you will be notified as soon as possible but not later than the scheduled departure date.  In such an event, a full refund will be made to you within 14 days after cancellation.

The rights and remedies relating to cancellations and major changes prior to departure, made available under this contract are in addition to any other rights or remedies available under applicable law.  However, we offer any refunds under this contract with the express understanding that the receipt of that refund by you waives all other remedies. 

If you change plans or cancel, your rights to a refund are limited: Check with us for details, each tour has its individual deadlines with airlines and hotels.  If you find a substitute, you will receive a nearly full refund- the airline will assess a $150 name change fee.

Bonjour Travel has no obligation to find a substitute.  If we have travelers on our waiting list, we’ll let you know as soon as you contact us.  Any request of cancellation must be communicated in writing.  Applicable refunds, if any, will be made 14 days after the cancellation or substitution.

There are no exceptions of any kind, including medical exceptions, to these policies.  No refund will be made for any portion of the arrangements we have made for you that are not actually utilized by you.  There is no variance from these policies for the services we arrange as described in this website.
