Important Information for Consumers:
Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) and government restrictions imposed on the population and travel, travel agents
are experiencing an unprecedented volume of enquiries to change or cancel travel plans.
We ask for your patience at this time, as your agent does their utmost best to manage an incredibly high level of requests, including yours.
Cancellation/Changing Service Fees:
The ACCC has advised that if your travel is cancelled due to government restrictions, this changes your rights under the
consumer guarantees. The terms and conditions of your contract will determine what cancellation/service fees may be applied. This
may also include any ‘force majeure’ clause which may limit liability or detail what is to occur in such circumstances.
If this is not stipulated, the pandemic may give rise to what is called a ‘frustrated contract’ at common law or under legislation in some
States. This allows ‘reasonable expenses’ to be deducted.Travel agents, like everyone else, deserve to be paid for work that
they do especially in situations like this which are not of their making and which are considerably more complex and time consuming than
normal.Travel agents make their revenue when they make the booking and the customer takes the travel, they do not receive revenue from
suppliers for cancellations.The COVID-19 pandemic has presented a very difficult set of circumstances for both travel agents and their customers. In some
circumstances travel agents will charge a fee for the work being done to cancel or re-arrange bookings. It is both fair and reasonable
that travel agents are paid for the work they undertake and in order to operate their business.
Delays:
These delays are not the fault of the travel agent but are due to government imposed restrictions. Travel agents are facing an incredibly high level of requests and please understand that they are doing all they can in the face of this pandemic to service consumers as best they are able
