General Information / Booking Terms & Conditions |
 |
Deposits
& Final Payments
A non-refundable deposit of BD 20 per person (except where the
conditions of other Operators apply) is required at the time of booking.
The balance of your product cost (unless other Operators’ conditions apply) is
due for payment no later than 14 days before departure. This
deadline is most important and we reserve the right to cancel
bookings if the balance is not paid by then. If, however, after the
deposit has been received the product originally requested is
subsequently unable to be confirmed, a full and prompt refund of all
monies paid will be made. |
|
|
Late
Bookings
If the booking has been
made inside of 14 days of departure, we will ask you to pay only
the initial required deposit. However, upon confirmation of the
product requested, you will be required to pay the full cost within
48 hours of our confirmation advice. Failure to do so
may result in the automatic cancellation of your booking. Please be
aware that different Holiday Operators have their own conditions,
and where a product has been booked through us as Agents, their
Terms and Conditions will apply. |
|
|
Alterations
to Holidays
If you significantly
alter your holiday arrangements after confirmation of the original
product has been advised, we reserve the right to levy an alteration
fee of BD 5 per person per alteration advice. Alterations to
products booked through us as Agents for another Operator are
subject to the conditions of that Operator. You are advised to check
with us before taking any action. |
|
|
Cancellation
Dependant upon when you cancel any product booked through is,
cancellation fees will be imposed. In some cases this may only
be the deposit paid, in others it may result in the loss of all
monies paid.
You are strongly advised to check with us, at the time
of making your booking, the financial liability you will incur in
the event of you cancelling any booking. Once a cancellation
has been made a booking cannot be reinstated. In all cases
where a product has been purchased through us acting as Agent for
another Operator, the cancellation clauses of that Operator will
apply. We
strongly recommend that you insure against involuntary cancellations
and curtailments (through illness or other causes). |
|
|
Holiday
Insurance
We also strongly
recommend that all clients take out adequate insurance protection
against medical and other unforeseen expenses. B.I.T Leisure offers
a choice of insurance schemes. Details are available upon request.

|
|
Passports and Visas
It is the personal responsibility of all passengers to carry a valid
passport and the appropriate visas for entry into the countries to be visited. Some
countries insist on a passport validity of 6 months beyond the
period of intended stay. It is recommended that you contact our
office for advice on this subject, if required. |
|
|
Health
Vaccination
requirements are stipulated by various authorities as and when
circumstances necessitate. We therefore suggest that you check on
the latest situation before departure. It is the personal
responsibility of all passengers to have proof of being currently
protected against any disease as required by the country to be
visited. |
|
|
Prices
All prices are
correct at the time of offer. However, we reserve the right to
amend these if necessary. Only once full payment for any product
purchased is received is the price guaranteed. All prices quoted are cash prices. Clients
wishing to pay by credit or charge cards may be liable for
surcharges. Clients paying by personal cheque should be aware that
we require 4 working days for cheque clearance before travel
documents can be released. |
|
|
Complaints
If you have any
complaint about any aspect of a product, it should be reported
immediately to our local representative who will do whatever he/she
can during your stay. If the problem is not resolved to your
satisfaction, any further complaint should be made by you in writing
to to us not later than 28 days following completion of your travel, failing which no claim may be brought against Bahrain
International Travel. |
We
advise all Clients that these are the Conditions of Booking of
our company. When the product is purchased through us as
Agent for an Operator, then the Terms and Conditions of the Company
whose product it is, will be those which must be observed. Often
these are more restrictive than our own.
|
RESPONSIBILITY
AND CONDITIONS OF CARRIAGE
|
i. The
Company does not accept, and hereby excludes all liability for acts of
omission or commission, whether through negligence or otherwise, of
airlines, coach operators, hoteliers or any person providing goods and
services in connection with any booking, unless such person is either
employed by it and acting within the scope of his/her employment, or
is an Agent under its control.
ii.
The Company accepts no liability for any loss or damage caused by
events beyond its control.
|
(B)
Third Party Conditions
i.
The Company is not itself a provider of accommodation, ground services
or tours, nor does it control the Third Parties who provide such
services in connection with the Client' travel arrangements.
ii.
All bookings are accepted and all arrangements made by the Company
subject to (a)
any and all conditions imposed from time to time by airlines, sea-,
rail- and road-carriers, car rental companies, providers of
accommodation, catering and other services or facilities connected
with a booking, and such conditions will apply to the Client as if
they were incorporated into these Conditions, and (b) any law,
direction or order imposed from time to time by any competent
authority.
iii.
Some of the Third party Conditions referred to above seek to exclude
or limit liability of the Third Party concerned: for instance, the
liability of airlines for personal injury (including death) or loss
or damage to property and baggage is usually limited by conditions
contained within the airline ticket and Conditions of Carriage (and/or
by operation of law).
|
The
Terms, Conditions and Provisions in (or referred to in) the airline
ticket provided shall apply in respect of carriage of a Client by this
means and if there is any conflict between these Conditions and those,
such Terms, Conditions and Provisions of the airline ticket shall
prevail.
