Though majority of our travel arrangements are protected in the case of the financial failure of the travel company, by the ATOL scheme, ATOL protection does not apply to all the flights, holiday and travel services bookable with Flights to India. It is suggested to get it confirmed as what protection may apply to you. Booking that did not receive an ATOL Certificate will not be ATOL protected. Further, even if you do receive an ATOL Certificate but all the parts of your trip are not listed on it, those parts will not be ATOL protected.

A Flight-Plus is where you purchase through us, at the same time or within a day of each other, a flight plus overseas accommodation and/or car hire from separate suppliers (i.e. not a package holiday). On all Flight Plus holiday arrangements, your money is ATOL protected meaning that you will be able to continue with your holiday or receive a refund of the amount paid to us in the unlikely event of our insolvency or the insolvency of your service providers. Please note however that we have no liability beyond that for insolvency as set out in the ATOL scheme, because we act as agent of the principals or suppliers.

In respect of our Flight-Plus holidays, please keep the below in mind:

Flights to India or the suppliers of the services you have bought will provide you with the services you have bought (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances, the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable).

If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme.

However, this might involve additional costs.

PASSPORTS, VISAS AND HEALTH

Please take special note that for all air travel within the British Isles, airlines require photographic identification of a specific type.

Passports need to be valid for at almost 6 months past the period of your stay.

ESTA visa is a necessary requirement for all USA bound travel, plus transiting the USA and ETA visa is a necessary requirement for all Australia bound travel plus transiting Australia. If your flight has an alteration involving two separate airports with the path, it is your duty to arrange the transfer to the correct airport and also check the transit visa needs. Further, Flights to India is not responsible for any VISA regulations. Please refer with the relevant embassy or consulate for this detail.

Though Flights to India can provide general health recommendation and formalities involved in your booking, it is your responsibility to check with your own doctor for your specific circumstances. Proposed vaccinations for travel might alter at any time. It is your duty to make sure that you get all the needed vaccinations, take all needed medication and follow all medical guidance in connection.

New passport rules for Travellers to the United States of America has made it compulsory, that anyone travelling to the US for holidays or business below the Visa Waiver Program, needs to have the newest Biometric Passport or a Machine-Readable Passport that has an electronic chip, even if the electronic visa has been permitted. The biometric passport has a string of lines, that could be swiped by the US Customs/Immigration/Border Protection officers, that would rapidly verify the passport holder's identity and gather other details about the holder.

VWP visitors coming into in the US without the Biometric Passport will be refused entry into the country. Travellers amid the VWP countries are pushed to check with their passport issuing authority to own a biometric passport. Travellers with an instant travel plan, who are not able to have such a passport needs to apply for a US visa at the relevant embassy or consulate.
