RIGHT TO CORRECT ERRORS AND OFFERS SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY
We reserve the right to correct errors, adjust prices, or make other necessary corrections. All offers, incentives, and Supplier promotions are subject to availability and may change without notice. To avoid disappointment, fare increases, and late booking fees, it is advisable to confirm reservations well in advance of your intended travel dates.
PAYMENTS, CANCELLATIONS, AND CHANGES TO BOOKINGS
You are responsible for all charges, fees, taxes, and assessments related to your travel bookings through Triptique LLC. By submitting a credit card authorization form to Triptique LLC, you authorize Triptique LLC to use your payment method to purchase travel products from Suppliers on your behalf. You agree not to dispute any charges with your bank or credit card company, except in cases of fraud, to comply with the booking terms and conditions of Triptique LLC and its Suppliers. Attempting chargebacks or reversals may result in additional costs and fees, including attorney fees, being collected by Triptique LLC.
Payments for travel must be made in accordance with each Supplier’s terms and conditions. Failure to make final payments or violating Supplier conditions may lead to cancellation of reservations, denial of access to travel services, or forfeiture of funds paid for reservations. Some bookings may not be refundable, and changes to confirmed bookings may be subject to Supplier-imposed penalties.
If you wish to modify your confirmed arrangements before or during your trip, we will do our best to assist you. Certain bookings may be non-changeable, and you may be responsible for increased costs imposed by the Supplier, along with Triptique LLC or Supplier change fees. All change requests must be submitted in writing to Triptique LLC. In cases where tour, cruise, or package prices are based on Supplier contract rates, no refund will be provided for unused portions of travel.
TRAVEL DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING TSA AND DHS ACCEPTABLE IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

TSA and DHS recommend carrying acceptable identification for domestic and international flights, with details available at http://www.tsa.gov/. Certain countries may refuse entry if passports expire within six months of the return date. Non-U.S. citizens may have additional documentation requirements.
Traveling with children and infants may require specific documents. Minors traveling with one parent or without both parents may need authenticated consent forms.

Clients are advised to obtain travel insurance to protect against such events.
CLIENT CONDUCT
Clients must adhere to behavior guidelines established by Triptique LLC and Suppliers, including dress codes at religious or cultural sites.

In such cases, no refunds will be issued.
Clients are responsible for any damage or loss caused by them, including payment directly to accommodation owners or managers. Use or possession of illegal drugs during the trip may lead to immediate termination and potential prosecution.
