Additional Terms & Conditions will be applicable to your reservation when purchasing travel-related services and products with us. You may kindly read the additional Terms & Conditions carefully before proceeding to make transactions with us. If you have, particularly, purchased a flight ticket with us then must read the Terms & Conditions of the airline with which your ticket has been bought, which can be viewed on the said airline’s website.

Your booking to us is provided by the concerned travel supplier. In case of frequent flyer points and/or miles, you need to check it with the relevant travel supplier. Once your booking has been confirmed and the final ticket issued, the name(s) or destination(s) as provided in your booking can’t be transferred or changed.
