SCOPE OF SERVICE
1. Mediation of Travel Services
  1. For the flight and flight related services offered on the Flight Portal (collectively referred to as “Travel Services”), We exclusively provide travel mediation services through which We only act in our capacity as an intermediary between You and a Service Provider (our travel mediation services are referred to as “Mediation Services”). To that end, our role and obligations are limited to mediating Travel Services that will be rendered by third parties such as airlines, travel operators, hotels, insurers, car rental companies or other service providers (hereinafter in each case “Service Provider” or “airline”, where specifically applicable).
  2. Consequently, the agreement for the actual provision of Travel Services (e.g. transport contract, insurance contract) comes into effect directly between You and the relevant Service Provider. We are not a co-vendor of the Travel Services and We are not a party to the contractual relationship between You and the Service Provider.
  3. By using the Flight Portal to purchase Travel Services, You authorize Us to engage in Mediation Services and mediate with the corresponding Service Provider(s) on your behalf, including mediation of the payment for these Travel Services, in order to take care that the transaction between You and the Service Provider(s) is carried out.
  4. Responsibility for the actual performance of the Travel Services mediated through the Flight Portal is exclusively held by the relevant Service Provider. In our role as an intermediary, We do not assume any responsibility for the Travel Services to be rendered by the Service Providers and We make no representations or warranties (neither expressed nor implied) regarding the suitability or quality of Travel Services mediated on the Flight Portal. For any claim You may have in context with the performance or non-performance of the Travel Service, the Service Provider is the responsible addressee.
  5. Should You have the opportunity to request special wishes (such as special meals, disabled facilities or child seats) when booking Travel Services, We will pass on your request to the relevant Service Provider. However, We cannot take any responsibility on whether the Service Provider can actually fulfill such wishes.
2. Our own Services Apart from our Mediation Services as stated in Section 1.1 above, there are also additional services (other than Travel Services) available through the Flight Portal which We, ourselves, are responsible for providing. For such additional services, You enter into a direct contractual relationship with Us. In each case, We clearly inform You if and to what extent We offer our own services instead of only mediating third party services. Our own portfolio of services may vary over time. Some of our own services are described in Section 6. For additional services not set forth in these T&C’s, a detailed description of such additional services as well as information about our fees and supplementary terms and conditions for booking and usage, is provided to You over the course of the booking process.
3. Applicable contractual conditions
  1. These T&Cs cover the Mediation Services according to Section 1.1 as well as our own services pursuant to Section 1.2.
  2. With respect to the Travel Services agreement between You and a Service Provider (to which We are in no event a party), the general terms and conditions of the relevant Service Provider will apply (“Service Provider Terms”). Such Service Provider Terms will be made available to You on the Flight Portal during the booking process or may otherwise be available through or requested by You directly from the Service Provider. As the Service Provider Terms may include provisions relating to liability, cancellation, changes of bookings and refunds (if available) and other restrictions, You are advised to read those terms carefully.
BOOKING PROCESS AND CONTACT INFORMATION
1. During the booking process, You are provided with the technical means needed to detect errors in entry forms and to correct them prior to submitting your booking request. You are requested to check all data for accuracy before concluding your booking request. Subsequent change requests may lead to significant additional costs.
2. We might need to contact You, e.g. in case of subsequent changes to the purchased Travel Services. You must submit accurate contact information such as your telephone number and email address. You must also continuously check if You have received a message from Us.
  
  It is also your responsibility to ensure that You are able to receive our messages. We are not responsible if You do not receive a message from Us due to circumstances reasonably outside of our control including, but not limited to the following: (i) You gave us an incorrect email address; (ii) your email settings won’t allow our email to reach You; or (iii) your email settings treat our email as spam.
MEDIATION OF FLIGHTS
1. Conclusion of contract and price changes
  1. After You submit your booking request, receipt of your request will be confirmed via email. This is the moment that the mediation contract between You and Us comes into existence.
  2. As soon as your requested tickets have been issued, You will receive a confirmation email with a ticket number. This is the moment a binding contract between You and the relevant airline(s) has been concluded.
  3. Prices for the flight, as well as seat availability, are directly inserted by the applicable airline. For airline price changes outside our control occurring after submission of the booking request, but before the contract with the airline has become binding (as set out in Section 3.1.2 above), the contract will not enter into force and your payment will be refunded in full.
2. Information on booking and transport conditions
  1. Regarding the flights offered on the Flight Portal , We exclusively act in our capacity as an intermediary. The agreement for the performance of the flight comes into effect directly between You and the relevant airline and We do not accept any contractual responsibility related to the performance or non-performance of your flight. The operating airline is solely responsible for performance / non-performance of your flight.
  2. Before You conclude the booking, the terms and conditions of the relevant airline(s) will be made available to You.
  3. When mediating Travel Services rendered by airlines, We are not guaranteed access to the airline’s booking system. Where this is the case, We may act on your behalf in concluding the contract between You and the airline. We may also ask You to contact the relevant airline directly for questions on bookings, changes or cancellation of your booking. If You have purchased our Flexible Ticket service (see Section 6), all rebooking requests must however be made through the Customer Service team as set out in Section 6.1.4.You may receive two booking confirmations – one from us and one from the relevant airline. If You have received two booking confirmations, please use the booking confirmation of the airline for check-in.
  4. Below, by way of a general overview, We provide information on conditions related to booking and transport typically applied by airlines in such or at least a similar way. However, any deviating provisions of the relevant airline prevail over the general information provided in this Section 3.2.4. Therefore, in each case, please check the applicable terms and conditions of the relevant airline prior to your booking.
    - Flight times/check in
      All flight times specified are local. Next-day arrivals are indicated with a "+1" on the timetable. The stated flight times are preliminary and subject to change on short notice after the ticket has been issued; for example, due to restrictions by flight control, the weather, or functional restrictions by the airline. Please keep yourself informed of the current times well ahead of your flight.
      
      Please comply with the check-in times stated by the airline. The airlines are entitled to refuse boarding if You are late for check-in. Kindly observe that some airlines encourage check-in through their own website as they may charge a check-in fee when checking in manually at the airport.
    - Combination of individual tickets
      A combination of two separate one-way tickets instead of a roundtrip ticket is clearly marked as such during the booking procedure. The tickets are treated independently from one another in the event of cancellation, change, disruption of air traffic such as strikes and changes to flight schedules. Each airline's own regulations will apply.
      
      Flight tickets with different booking numbers are always regarded as journeys that are independent of each other.
    - Flight tickets with several segments/order of use
      Your roundtrip ticket or one-way ticket may consist of several segments. According to the conditions of most airlines, such flight segments are to be used in sequence. If not, many airlines will refuse transport on subsequent flight segments (e.g. failure to use one segment of a journey could invalidate the rest of the ticket). For roundtrip tickets a no-show on Your outbound flight may result in Your inbound flight being cancelled by the airline
    - Pregnancy
      Some airlines refuse to transport women who are past week 28th of pregnancy at the time of the outward or return flight. If you are pregnant You must clarify with the airline and your doctor whether or not You can commence the journey.
    - Infants and child tickets
      Please contact the airline to obtain the conditions for traveling with a child who does not have a separate seat. Usually, children above the age of 2 years require a separate seat, while children between the ages of 0 and 2 years travel as infants and will not be allocated a seat of their own. If the infant reaches the age of 2 before the end of the trip, a child ticket must be booked for the entire trip. Infant tickets cannot be booked before birth, as the correct name and date of birth must match those stated in the passport. We will not reimburse any expenses that arise if the wrong type of ticket is booked from the outset.
    - Unaccompanied minors
      We do not mediate the booking of any tickets for unaccompanied minors. Children under 18 years must be booked for a journey in the company of an adult. Some countries and airlines refuse entry to children under 18 years unless accompanied by a legal guardian. Please note that some airlines require children under the age of 18 to bring a birth certificate to travel.
    - Lost/damaged luggage
      Within our capacity as an intermediary, We accept no liability for lost or damaged luggage. Any problems should be reported immediately to the representative of the airline at the airport.
    - Transit and overnight accommodation
      Generally, ground transportation and/or overnight accommodation during your trip is not included in the flight ticket price. You are personally responsible for checking ground transportation timetables and prices.
    - Connection times between flights
      Standard tickets booked on the Flight Portal have approved connection times. The times required for making connections between flights are calculated by the airlines. If a flight segment is delayed and leads to a missed connection, the airlines are obliged to assist You in reaching your final destination (see Section 9).
      When separate tickets are booked, the airlines bear no responsibility for missed connections resulting from delays. Therefore, it is your responsibility to ensure that the connection time is sufficient according to the airlines and airports. Any additional costs incurred on account of missed connections will not be reimbursed.
    - Double booking
      A double booking means that two or more bookings with the same passenger name have been made with the same airline. If You have a double booking, the airline may cancel the trip(s). This may also occur if the bookings have been made with different travel agencies. We are not responsible for cancellations made by the airlines, nor for denied refunds from airlines, in cases where they suspect a double booking.
3. Airlines banned from operating in the EU (black list) Please note that certain airlines are prohibited from operating within the EU, according to a decision made by the European Commission in close consultation with the national air transport authorities. Such airlines are prohibited because they are considered unsafe or not subject to adequate control by the authorities of their country.
  You can check which airlines are affected by an operating prohibition via the following link:
  Black List (List of airlines not permitted to operate in the EU)
4. Timetable changes and cancellation by airlines
  1. Your agreement with the applicable airline may allow them to cancel or amend your bookings. We will notify You of any changes once We are informed of them by the airline.
    
    If You wish to request a change or cancellation refund, as an additional own service, We offer to handle the request on your behalf if permitted by the conditions of the airline. Please note that the airline’s change fees may apply.
  2. The flight times shown in your booking confirmation may change between the date of your booking and the date You actually travel. In case of flight schedule changes, You will be notified as soon as We are informed thereof by the airline. However, We strongly recommend that You contact your airline at least 72 hours before the scheduled departure of each flight to ensure that the flight(s) (and any connecting flights) are operating on schedule. We have no control over airline’s schedule changes and accept no responsibility for costs which may arise as a result of such changes.
5. Changes and cancellations requested by You
  1. The conditions for changing flight bookings (including change of passenger name, destination, and date of travel) and for providing cancellation refunds are set by the relevant airline, which is your contractual partner for providing the flight. We, as the intermediary, have no influence over such conditions.
  2. If You wish to make a change to your booking or request a cancellation refund, as an additional own service, please contact the Customer Service team and We will handle the request on your behalf, provided that the conditions of the airline permit such a change or cancellation refund. During the process of booking such additional services, We will inform You of any further conditions and fees for such services.
  3. In order for us to be able to handle the changes requested by You, it is necessary that We receive your change requests at the latest 24 hours prior to the commencement of travel (by telephone or chat where available).
    
    For change requests at shorter notice, We recommend that You contact the relevant airline directly.
  4. If You have purchased our own service Flexible Ticket, please see Section 6.1 for changes of date and/or time of your flight booking.
  5. If You have purchased our own service Cancel For Any Reason, please see Section 6.4 for cancellation of your flight ticket(s) and refunds.
6. Non-Appearance or Non-Attendance of the Flight If You do not appear for or attend your flight, You hereby authorize us to request possible refunds from the airline on your behalf. We are entitled but not obligated to do so and any rights You have to request unclaimed refunds directly from the airline remain unaffected.
  
  We will retain any refunds obtained on your behalf until 12 months following the date of the flight and You will be able to request a transfer of this amount at any time before the 12 month period has passed by contacting our customer service.
7. Identity verification process conducted by the airline Certain airlines may require verification of your identity before departure, which is beyond our control as an intermediary of flight tickets. This verification process, if applicable, is conducted by the airline after the booking is made and may incur minor additional cost (usually less than 1 EUR).
  
  Additionally, if you choose not to complete the verification process online, before your departure, as required by the airline, and opt to complete it at the airport, please be aware that this may result in additional fees. These fees are in accordance with the airline's policies, charged directly by the airline, and are non-refundable by us.
  
  Any costs associated with the verification process are determined and imposed by the airline. As an intermediary, we have no authority or liability regarding this process. We recommend reviewing the specific airline's terms and conditions regarding associated fees before making a booking.
SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR THE MEDIATION OF BOOKINGS OF MULTIPLE SERVICES The Flight Portal offers the possibility to mix and match multiple individual Travel Services as You wish. In this case, You instruct Us to act as an intermediary for the booking of various Travel Services from various Service Providers. The relevant Service Providers will be clearly presented to You during the booking procedure before the booking is completed. In the event that You combine individual Travel Services, no travel contract is concluded between You and Us; instead, You conclude several contracts for the provision of individual Travel Services with each separate Service Provider. In this case, We solely operate in our capacity as an intermediary in relation to each individual Travel Service.
INFORMATION ON PASSPORT, VISA AND HEALTH PROVISIONS
1. Passport, visa and/or health requirements can change and You should therefore check with the relevant authority (embassy, consulate etc.) well in advance of travel. It is your responsibility to be in possession of a valid passport and, if appropriate, a visa. It is important to remember to include all transit points in your journey which may also require You to obtain a visa. It can often take some time to obtain a visa, so You are advised to apply well ahead of time. We accept no responsibility for customers who do not possess the correct documents.
2. Each destination has its own requirements as far as entry formalities, vaccinations, etc. which can also vary depending on the passenger's nationality. It is your responsibility to collect that information. No incidents arising from the failure to comply with such official regulations will be considered our responsibility. We therefore urge You to always verify the different formalities of the chosen destination or transit countries, as well as the time needed to take all of the related steps.
OUR OWN SERVICES

  1. If purchased during the booking procedure, the Flexible Ticket allows You to change the date and/or time of your flight booking under the terms set out in this Section 6.1., without paying our change fee and/or the airline’s change fee. When providing our Flexible Ticket service, We only mediate the transport contract between You and the relevant airline.

    - The Flexible Ticket does not allow any names to be changed or corrected.

2. Should a Service Provider be unable to provide the Travel Service for any reason, including where a Service Provider declares for bankruptcy, We can only act as an intermediary and refund payments where we have already received such from the applicable Service Provider.
3. With regard to our own services, We are liable for damages subject to the limitations set out in the T&Cs provided that such limitations are permitted by law. Unless You have suffered personal injury caused by our services or in case of gross negligence by Us, We shall only be liable for direct damages actually suffered, paid or incurred by You due to an attributable shortcoming of our obligations in the performance of our own services, up to an aggregate amount of the cost of your booking (whether for one event or a series of connected events). If, due to reasons of extraordinary events or circumstances beyond our control (force majeure), there are deficiencies with reservations, confirmations and/or execution of any bookings or services, We are exempt from any derived legal responsibilities arising from such deficiencies or non-compliances related to the effect of force majeure.
