THIS IS A LEGALLY BINDING RELEASE, WAIVER OF LIABILITY, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”). Please read it carefully before signing/accepting/acknowledging.

 

 

I understand that Love + Leisure Boutique Travel Agency, is not the source or supplier of the travel services, airline travel, or any third party operated excursion or activity that I have requested, and acts solely as an agent for the actual suppliers of such services. I have been advised that the suppliers whose names appear in the information supplied to me are those who are actually responsible for providing the services I have purchased. I consent to and request the use of those suppliers and agree not to hold Love + Leisure Boutique Travel Agency responsible should any of these suppliers: 1) fail to provide the travel services I have purchased; 2) fail to comply with any applicable law; or 3) engage in any negligent act or omission that causes me any sort of injury, damage, delay or inconvenience. Love and Leisure Boutique Travel Agency can accept no responsibility for losses or additional expenses due to delay or changes in air, sea or other services, sickness, weather, strike, war, quarantine or other causes.

 

I agree that neither Love and Leisure Boutique Travel Agency nor its parent, affiliates, subsidiaries or representatives will be or become liable or responsible in any way for any loss, costs, expense, injury, accident or damage to person or property resulting directly or indirectly from (i) the acts or omissions of the suppliers, including, but not limited to, delays or cancellation of services, cessation of operations, breakdown in machinery or equipment, technology problems, or changes in fares, itineraries or schedules, and/or (ii) acts of God, fire, acts of government or other authorities, wars, acts of terrorism, piracy, civil unrest, strikes, riots, thefts, pilferage, pandemics, epidemics, quarantines, other disease, climatic aberrations, dangers incident to activities or from any other cause beyond Love + Leisure Boutique Travel Agency control.

 

I affirm that I am voluntarily participating in the travel services that Love and Leisure Boutique Travel Agency has reserved. In addition, Love + Leisure Boutique Travel Agency is not responsible for special, indirect or consequential damages. I hereby agree to indemnify and hold Love + Leisure Boutique Travel Agency harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, and costs of any kind (including the costs of reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements in defending such claims) to which they may be subject by reason of its negligence, the breach of this contract, or any other of its action.

 

I understand that all reservation fares typically involve restrictions (including, but not limited to, restrictions related to cancellation) and that changing any aspect of my travel arrangements may result in the payment of additional money. I understand that Love + Leisure Boutique Travel Agency only accepts credit cards. By using a credit card, this may offer me the opportunity to dispute the charges should a vendor cease to operate.

 

I understand that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires me to carry a government-issued identification card in order to board a flight. I have been advised that the name, date of birth and gender that appears on the identification card must exactly match the same such data that is listed on my airline ticket and in my booking records. I acknowledge that my failure to strictly comply with these requirements may result in denied boarding or an undue delay at an airport security checkpoint causing me to miss my flight. I understand that if traveling internationally, I must have a valid passport and depending upon my destination and nationality, I may need to obtain one or more visas. I take full responsibility and must determine the proper entry requirements when traveling internationally. This includes passports, visas, vaccinations, legal authorization, and any documents that may be required such as a minor traveling without parents. All passengers are required to have a valid passport to travel. Passports should be valid for at least six months after the return date. Traveler assumes complete and full responsibility for, and hereby releases Travel Agency from any duty of checking and verifying any and all passport, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of each destination, and all safety and security conditions of such destinations, during the length of the proposed travel. It is the passenger’s responsibility to have proper passports or government-issued IDs where permitted. It is the traveler’s responsibility to be informed of any state department warnings where they are traveling. I also need to be aware of any health risks and take the appropriate precautions.

Travel cancellation/interruption insurance is available and highly recommended immediately after booking.

I will review my documents when I receive them and notify the travel agency of any discrepancies.  It is the traveler's responsibility to have appropriate documents for identification. It is the traveler's responsibility to read online or in the brochure from cruise lines, hotels, resorts, suppliers or tour companies and be aware of any cancellation penalties. Refunds, if due from airlines, tour companies, suppliers, resorts, cruise lines and hotels will be made to our customers only after the monies have been received from these sources by us.
