GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These terms and conditions (the “Agreement”) describe what you are legally entitled to expect from us when you purchase travel related services through us, in addition to your obligations as a customer. The terms “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to The OMJ Company Ltd trading as (“Omarjee Holidays”). The term “you” refers to the customer visiting our website, booking a reservation through us or otherwise using our services.

OUR AGREEMENT WITH YOU

1.1 PRODUCTS AND SUPPLIERS

1.1.1 We sell various travel-related products from different suppliers and service providers (“Suppliers”). Each Supplier has its own terms and condition that are applicable to your particular arrangements in addition to our general terms and conditions, and you should make sure you understand them.

1.1.2 We act as an intermediary or a “Booking Agent” for products and services that we do not directly supply (e.g., air carriage, ground transportation, transfers, hotel accommodations, insurance, meals, tours, cruises, packages, etc.). We are not a co-vendor of such products and services.

1.1.3 All airlines’ tickets are subject to supplemental price increases that may be imposed after the date of booking. Post-purchase price increases may be applied due to additional costs imposed by a supplier or government. We may charge you additional sums to offset increased fees, fuel surcharges, taxes, and fluctuations in foreign exchange markets or any combination thereof.


1.2 DEPOSITS AND PAYMENT

1.2.1 Any deposits from you are non-refundable. Payment of a deposit enables us to hold a reservation for you but does not guarantee the price. The price can only be guaranteed once we receive full payment and other travel documents have been issued, subject to any terms and conditions of the Supplier. We will advise you of the date that full payment is required. Upon your provision of your payment information, you are authorizing us to make the payment arrangements with the corresponding Suppliers.

1.2.2 We reserve the right to refuse personal cheques as a method of payment. After full payment, the conditions of the contract with your Supplier may permit them to increase the cost of your arrangements. If we are acting as your Booking Agent, we will pass on any such increase to you as we become aware of such increase. If we have arranged a package, changes in transportation costs including the cost of fuel, taxes, fees and exchange rates mean that the price of your travel arrangements may change after you have paid in full.


1.3 CANCELLATIONS AND CHANGES

1.3.1 Your contract with the Suppliers may allow them to cancel or amend bookings. Being your Booking Agent, we will ensure that you are promptly notified of any significant changes once we become aware of such change if there is time before your departure, but we accept no liability for any changes or costs incurred that may result. Subject to the Supplier’s terms and conditions, you will then have the choice of accepting the change of arrangements, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements if one is made available by the Supplier, or cancelling your booked arrangements with a penalty fee applicable. We do not guarantee that any refunds will apply.

1.3.2 If you have booked a flight and we are alerted to a significant schedule change by the airline before you leave the country, we will contact you by email, and/or telephone to advise you of any changes occurred. Please ensure that you have given your contact details, email address & telephone numbers to us and that you regularly check for messages before you leave. We have no control over airline schedule changes and accept no liability for costs which may arise as a result of such changes.

1.3.3 After you have left the country, it is your responsibility to check with the airline that any onward flights you have confirmed are operating as booked. We strongly recommend that you contact your airline at least 72 hours before the scheduled departure of each flight. Please note that for some airlines it is mandatory to confirm your seat prior to departure.


2. YOUR AGREEMENT WITH US

2.1 YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS

2.1.1 By booking your arrangement with us or using our website, you are agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including Parts 1-3 of this Agreement and any additional terms and conditions of any Supplier that are applicable to your booking, travel arrangements or use of any website content. You agree on behalf of yourself and those you represent to comply with all such terms and conditions, including the payment of all amounts when due. You agree that any violation of any such terms and conditions may result in (a) the cancellation of your reservation or purchase, (b) your forfeiture of any monies paid for your reservation or purchase, (c) you are being denied access to the applicable travel related product or service, and (d) our right to debit your account for any costs we incur as a result of such violation.

2.1.2 You represent and warrant that (a) you are of sufficient age to use our services and website and can create binding legal obligations in connection with your use, (b) you are legally authorized to act on behalf of those you represent and accept these terms and conditions on their behalf, and (c) the information supplied by you, or members of your group is true and correct. You are responsible for informing such other persons of all terms and conditions applicable to their travel arrangements. You understand that you are financially responsible for any use of our services or website by you and those using your name or account.


IF YOU CHANGE YOUR BOOKING

2.2.1 Where a change requested by you to your travel arrangements is permitted and possible, our standard service fees will apply in addition to any additional Supplier charges. Please contact your original booking agent to enquire about changes or send a mail to info@omarjeeholidays.com to the attention of your travel consultant. Please note that all reservation changes are subject to availability and the terms and conditions of the product purchased.

2.2.2 Changes to name details are not allowed by many airlines and other Suppliers. While we will endeavour make such a change, if necessary, please bear in mind that most airlines and Suppliers treat a name change as a cancellation, to which standard conditions and charges would apply.

2.2.3 Flights must be taken in the sequence they appear on your ticket or e-ticket confirmation. If you plan not to take a flight as booked, please contact your travel agency or the airline as far in advance as possible to discuss your options. If you do not check in on time for a confirmed reservation, the airline may register you as a ‘no-show’, which could result in extra charges and/or your whole flight itinerary being cancelled and/or render your ticket void.


2.3 IF YOU CANCEL YOUR BOOKING

2.3.1 If you cancel your arrangements, subject to all applicable terms and conditions, you may be entitled to a partial refund or no refund. In addition to the cancellation terms and conditions of your Supplier(s), our standard fees will apply as may be outlined on your receipt or booking confirmation. We need to receive from you your original voucher before any applicable refund can be considered. If you decide to cancel arrangements before the balance due date, any deposits paid are non-refundable.

2.3.2 Refunds will only be paid to you once we have received the funds back from the Supplier(s). Generally, flight tickets cannot be refunded if they are partially used. We are not responsible for a Supplier’s failure to pay a refund.

2.3.3 If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your travel insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim your cancellation charges through your insurer.


2.4 IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING AIRLINE RESERVATIONS

If you arrive at the passenger check-in counter with your confirmed ticket and find that the airline shows no reservation for you – do not leave the counter. the Airline policies typically require them to accommodate you on that flight, or if that is not possible, they must either find you a substitute flight. If necessary, ask to speak to a supervisor.


2.5 IF YOU HAVE A COMPLAINT

If you have a problem during your holiday, please inform the relevant Supplier (e.g. your hotel) immediately. Should they be unable to resolve the matter, please immediately contact us either through the office where you made your arrangements, through info@omarjeeholidays.com or www.omarjeeholidays.com or on our tel no (+230)-670-6666. If you fail to timely contact us, we will not have the opportunity to investigate your complaint and attempt to rectify any error while you are away, and this may affect any refunds if available.

3.4.2 Compensation will not be payable and no liability beyond offering the above mentioned choices can be accepted where we are forced to make a change or cancel as a result of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control such as force majeure, the consequences of which we could not have avoided even with all due care; or where applicable, we have to cancel because the minimum number of bookings necessary for us to operate your trip has not been reached.

3.4.3 Very rarely, we may be forced by force majeure to change or terminate your trip after departure but before the scheduled end of your time away. If this situation does occur, we regret we will be unable to make any refunds (unless we obtain any refunds from our suppliers), pay you any compensation or meet any costs or expenses you incur as a result.

3.4.4 For the purpose of this Clause and the whole agreement, the COVID-19 pandemic shall be considered as a force mejure.

3.4.5 As the worldwide COVID-19 corona-virus pandemic remains ongoing at this time, I acknowledge that for this reason, and other reasons not reasonably foreseeable at this time, these travel plans may be interrupted or canceled by the supplier that is providing them, a government entity or other third party over which Omarjee Holidays has no control.

3.4.6 I further acknowledge that the supplier's own cancellation, re-booking and refund policies, subject to any applicable law that is now or may later be in effect, will govern my rights and remedies, including my right to receive a refund, in such an event

3.4.7 Moreover, I understand that should I elect to purchase travel insurance, the terms of the policy will dictate whether, and to what extent, coverage for any financial loss may exist under the circumstances. By signing below, I hereby agree to hold Omarjee Holidays harmless and release the agency from any and all liability for any damages, including but not limited to monetary losses, I may incur as a result of such interruption or cancellation of these travel plans.

3.4.8 By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 while traveling. Such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and possible death.

3.4.10 As travel opens around the world, all destinations, airports, air carriers, hotels, restaurants, transfer companies, car rental companies, shops and excursions have established COVID-19 safety measures and precautions which may change from day to day. These safety measures may include, but are not limited to: curfews, attraction closings and reduced hours, size of group gatherings, social distancing requirements, health screenings, self-quarantine requirements and COVID test results.
