Cancellations due to Covid-19 affected travel plans
Where a cancellation of tour plans occurs due to COVID-19 restrictions imposed by the Australian Government, or in the case of international travel where any foreign government imposed restriction on travel to, from and within a country that you are travelling to, from or within, or by a third party supplier the payment of a refund will be contingent on the recovery of funds from a third party supplier i.e. airline, accommodation, transport provider, tour service provider. Gullivers will take active steps to seek to recover funds from suppliers to pass on to the consumer. In addition, Gullivers reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee for administration and other expenses incurred at a cost of no less than $100.00 per person. As an alternative to cancellation, Gullivers will discuss postponement of travel plans if the consumer wishes to pursue a credit. Where a third party supplier is willing to provide a credit, Gullivers will negotiate for the best possible outcome of credit for any funds held by a third party supplier for future use. Gullivers is not responsible for the loss or expiry of a credit or unused credit.
Please note there may be specialised inclusions in your tour such as Train Tickets, Theatre/ Show or special event tickets, instant purchase airline tickets etc that are non-refundable in addition to the above cancellation charges. These cancellation fees are in addition to any cancellation fees that may be levied by our tour suppliers.
Amendment Fee: Any person wishing to deviate from the group tour arrangements will be charged a standard $100.00 per person amendment fee plus any additional charges involved with the amendment (i.e. increase in airfare, additional transfers, accommodation etc). The above amendment and cancellation fees and charges reflect the reasonable, direct and indirect costs, time and effort incurred or involved in Gullivers providing booking and advisory services to you, as well as processing and managing the changes to, or cancellation of your booking. All bookings are made on your behalf subject to the terms and conditions imposed by the third party supplier. If, for example, a third party supplier’s terms and conditions contain a “no refund policy”, Gullivers will only be able to provide you with the remedy provided by the third party supplier (if any), which may include a travel credit supplied by the third party supplier.
Changed or cancelled bookings for any reason (including by reason of matters outside your or our control) may also incur third party supplier fees, which can be up to 100% of the cost of the booking, regardless of whether travel has commenced. Third party supplier fees may also apply where a booking is changed for any reason and when tickets or documents are re-issued. Where Gullivers incur any liability for a third party supplier change or cancellation fee for any booking which is changed or cancelled for any reason, you agree to indemnify us for the amount of that fee. Where you seek a refund for a changed or cancelled booking for which payment has been made to the third party supplier, Gullivers will not provide a refund to you until Gullivers receive the funds from that third party supplier (which may take 3-6 months, or longer, dependent upon the supplier processing time). In the event Gullivers are still holding the funds, Gullivers can only provide you with a refund once Gullivers are authorised by the third party supplier to process your refund, subject to that third party supplier’s change or cancellation policy.
Documentation: Australian citizens require a passport with minimum 6 months validity from date of departure from final destination. For international travel booking, Gullivers will assume that all travellers on the booking have a valid Australian passport which is valid for the relevant destination and transit point. If this is not the case, you must let us know. Other passport holders may require additional documentation. It is important that you ensure that you have valid passports, visas and re-entry permits which meet the requirements of immigration and other government authorities. Any fines, penalties, payments or expenditures incurred as a result of such documents not meeting the requirements of those authorities will be your sole responsibility (except to the extent caused by fault on our part). Gullivers can provide you with general information only on visa and passport requirements that apply to international travel bookings you make with us. Please check your applicable requirements with our Travel Consultant. A copy of each person’s passport is required.
Country Pre-entry clearance: You should ask your travel consultant if your country of destination requires you to submit an online pre- entry form prior to your arrival. For example: US and Canadian ESTA or a COVID Declaration to re-enter Australia.
Travel documents include (without limitation) airline tickets, hotel vouchers, tour vouchers or any other document (whether in electronic form or otherwise) used to confirm an arrangement with a third-party supplier. Travel documents may be subject to certain conditions and/or restrictions including (without limitation) being non-refundable, non-date-changeable, and/or subject to cancellation and/or other change fees. Travel documents cannot be transferred to another person to use. All airline tickets must be issued in the name of the passport/photo identity holder. Your name on your passport, visa and other travel documents must all be identical. An incorrect name on a booking may result in an inability to use that booking, the booking being cancelled, and the application of additional change and/or cancellation fees. Please review your travel documentation carefully and advise us immediately of any errors in names, dates or timings. As a general rule your travel documents will be available for collection 2 weeks prior to your departure date, however this will depend on your individual arrangements. Please contact Gullivers to confirm when your travel documents will be ready for collection.
Baggage: Standard baggage allowance, one piece weighing maximum 20 kg plus 1 cabin bag (piece) of 115cm with a maximum weight of 5kg per person (Please note these restrictions vary between airlines & depends on your destination. Please check with your tour consultant for applicable allowances for your plans). Luggage in excess of these limits will be charged for at the appropriate excess baggage rates. Excess baggage (if your airline allows it) can be expensive and is your responsibility. Gullivers will not be liable for any expenses, fees, penalties, costs, liabilities, damages or losses associated with baggage allowances and excess baggage. Baggage is the responsibility of the passenger at all times (Travel Insurance is strongly recommended).
Insurance Protection: “Highly recommended and available from Gullivers Sport Travel”. Gullivers strongly recommend you have Comprehensive Travel Insurance to cover all your travel arrangements and encourage travellers to have a policy in place as soon as they make a payment towards their trip plans. This is the sole responsibility of the traveller. Your insurance protection should at least include cover for cancellation, medical and repatriation expenses, personal injury and accident, death and loss of personal baggage and money and personal liability insurance. Evidence of such insurances should be produced to Gillivers on request. If you choose to be covered for Travel Insurance with an alternative provider such as a credit card company, Gullivers recommend that you thoroughly check the policy wording for levels of coverage. Insurance cover offered by credit card companies or reciprocal medical cover agreements are often not comprehensive. Travel insurance is strongly recommended by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for all overseas travel. Please ensure you are given a policy number and your policy includes adequate hospital cover, 24hr emergency contact and assistance during your holiday. Make sure you read the PDS before you decide to buy your travel insurance.
