POLICIES & FEES

We are Beyond Luxury Travels located in Michigan. The following terms & conditions (the "Agreement") describe what you can expect from us. The terms "we", "us", and "our" refer to Beyond Luxury Travels and the term "you" refers to the individual who signs this agreement. If you are obtaining a quote for and/or securing or procuring travel for more than just yourself, all references below to “you” shall be read to mean you on behalf of yourself and each individual within your group for whom you are obtaining a quote and/or securing or procuring travel.

Beyond Luxury Travels is acting as a "Booking Agent" for products and services that are not directly supplied by us; air and/or ground transportation, hotel accommodations, tours, cruises, etc. We sell a variety of travel related products from different suppliers, vendors and service providers. Each supplier/vendor has their own terms and conditions that are applicable to your particular arrangements in addition to our general terms and conditions. As we are not a co-vendor of such products and services, you will be entering into a separate contract with such suppliers/ vendors in connection with such products and services. It is your responsibility to review and understand these terms and conditions. You consent to and request the use of those suppliers and agree not to hold Beyond Luxury Travels responsible should any of these suppliers: 1) fail to provide the travel services you have purchased; 2) fail to comply with any applicable law; or 3) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes you any sort of injury, damage, delay or inconvenience.

DEPOSITS & PAYMENTS

Beyond Luxury Travels provides quotes and only accepts a valid debit/credit card (in USD) as a form of payment. You agree that, where Beyond Luxury Travels has identified the same in a written communication to you (including via email), a deposit may be required and/or certain itinerary planning charges may be imposed. By way of example only, Beyond Luxury Travels typically charges a planning fee that ranges from $25 - $100 depending on trip size for itinerary searching services and is compensation to Beyond Luxury Travels for the work associated with the searching, planning and communication of travel arrangements and activities. Initial deposit or full payment is due at time of booking to confirm the proposed components of your itinerary. Unless otherwise stated, all deposits are non-refundable. You will be advised of the Final Payment date when placing your initial deposit to confirm your reservation.

You understand that the airline tickets, air tours or other products you are purchasing are subject to supplemental price increases that may be imposed after the date of purchase. Post-purchase price increases may be applied due to additional costs imposed by a supplier or government. You acknowledge that you may be charged additional sums by Beyond Luxury Travels to offset increased fees, fuel surcharges, taxes, fluctuations in foreign exchange markets or any combination thereof. You hereby consent to any post-purchase price increases and authorize Beyond Luxury Travels to charge your credit card for such additional amounts.

Upon provision of your payment information, you are authorizing Beyond Luxury Travels to make payment arrangements on your behalf with the corresponding suppliers / vendors. We reserve the right to refuse personal checks and/or cash as a method of payment.

LATE PAYMENT / FEES

If there is any outstanding balance by the Final Payment Due date listed on your invoice, your trip may be cancelled or a late fee may be added to your invoice. Cancellations policies are set by suppliers and cannot be modified. You will be held responsible for any cancellation penalties or fees. Cancellation and late fees will vary.

IDENTIFICATION

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires you to carry a government issued identification card in order to board a flight and the name, date of birth and gender that appears on the identification card must exactly match the same data that is listed on your airline ticket and in your booking records. Any failure to strictly comply with these requirements may result in denied boarding or an undue delay at an airport security checkpoint causing you to miss your flight. All travelers are required to make reservations under their full name as stated on his/her government document they will use for travel. If you need to make any changes to a name after travel documents have been issued, you will be responsible for any name change fees, if applicable. These fees are set by the airline, hotel, vendor and/or supplier. Beyond Luxury Travels shall not be held liable if you, the traveler, provides incorrect spelling or delay notifying of us of any legally changed names. It is the travelers responsibility to review all final travel documents, notifying Beyond Luxury Travels of any errors. While we will make every possible attempt to make such a change if necessary, please bear in mind that most airlines and suppliers treat a name change as a cancellation, to which standard conditions and charges would apply.
