MTA Travel BOOKING CONDITIONS - GENERAL PROVISIONS
v1.2
Accuracy of information and limitation of liability
MTA Travel (The Agent) does not endorse or recommend
any particular travel service provider. The Agent and
its third party suppliers take reasonable care that
the travel information provided is correct but is subject
to amendment at any time without notice. You acknowledge
and accept that the Agent provides information in good
faith. The Agent cannot and does not check the accuracy
of all information provided by travel service providers.
You should make your own evaluation of the accuracy
or completeness of any information, opinion, advice.
You are solely responsible for the suitability of any
travel services, which you purchase; the Agent is not
liable for any inconvenience caused or expense incurred
as a result of any unsuitability of travel. The role
of the Agent in relation to your travel arrangements
is limited to facilitating your booking, arranging travel
documentation, payments and refunds as applicable. The
Agent accepts responsibility for the performance of
this role and for the negligence of its employees. However,
to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Agent disclaims
all liability for any technical errors, corruption of
any data, unauthorised access to your personal data,
inaccuracies in information supplied by third parties,
or failure by the Agent to complete bookings where that
failure is due to circumstances beyond its control.
The Agent accepts no responsibility or liability for
any failure or delay on the part of any third party
in providing travel services to you where your booking
has been properly processed by it; nor is the Agent
responsible for any acts or omissions of airlines or
other third parties in the course of delivery of such
travel services. Where the Agent is liable to you under
these terms and conditions its liability will be limited
to providing the relevant booking services again or
to refunding money paid in relation to services not
provided because of the Agent's default. Where refunds
are due to you from third party suppliers of travel
products or services, the Agent will provide reasonable
assistance to you in claiming such funds from those
suppliers. Under no circumstances will the Agent be
liable for direct, indirect, consequential or incidental
damages including but not limited to lost profits or
savings or damages for disappointment. You are responsible
to supply all passenger names exactly as they are on
your passports. Failure to provide your correct names
may require a reissue of tickets and you accept responsibility
for this cost.

Agent grants no warranties, express or implied. The
Agent will not be liable to you for the breach of any
alleged warranty.

your personal information to travel service providers,

change at any time up to time of final payment. Routing

without notice before final payment.
Deposits and Final Payments
Deposits and final payments must be received in to the
Agency Client Account as cleared funds in adequate time
to enable booking confirmations. Failure to make payments
to the Agency within Suppliers time limits may result
in automatic cancellation of the booking. We accept
no responsibility for loss incurred due to automatic
cancellation.
Travel Documentation
Passport, Visa and Health requirements are the responsibility
of all individual travellers. Passports are required
for all travellers departing Australia. Permanent residents
travelling on a foreign passport must hold an Australian
Re-entry Visa. Many countries require that foreign nationals
entering hold a passport with at least six months validity.
The Agent will assist in providing information. This
information as well as other related information supplied
by the Agent are supplied in good faith and should be
treated as a guide only. The final responsibility for
ensuring documentation is correct is that of the individual
traveller. The agent will not be held responsible for
tickets lost by a third party, any charges associated
with reissue and resending of documentation will be
at your expense.
Credit Cards
Most quotations are provided on the basis of payment
by cash or cheque. Credit Card transactions may in some
circumstances incur an additional charge. This charge
will be advised at the time of purchase of any service.
An imprint or photocopy of both sides of the credit
card is required along with an authority to charge the
card.
Liability
The Agent does not warrant the accuracy, completeness,
or fitness for a particular purpose of any services
provided by any Supplier and to the maximum extent permitted
by any law disclaims all implied warranties in connection
with same. In no event shall we be liable for any injury,
loss, claim, damage or any incidental or consequential
damages, including but not limited to lost profits or
savings, arising out of or in any way connected with
the travel arrangements made.
Booking Cancellation and Amendment Charges
Certain fees may be payable in respect of transactions
entered into using the Agent. These fees may include
cancellation fees and, where amendment is permitted,
amendment fees. In some cases, the Agent may charge
cancellation and/or amendment fees in addition to those
imposed by travel service providers. Before entering
into a transaction, you should carefully check to see
whether any other cancellation or amendment fees apply.
Travel Insurance
It is strongly recommended that all travellers obtain
travel insurance against cancellation or amendment fees
as well as providing sufficient medical cover. If you
do not require travel insurance you agree to provide
written acknowledgement that an offer to arrange travel
insurance has been made to you by the Agent.
