Terms and Conditions

JF Travel Limited company number NI636726 with its registered office address at 31 Kingsgate Street, Coleraine, Northern Ireland, BT52 1LD operates as a managed member of the Global Travel Group.  

We act as a retail booking agent in respect of all bookings we take and/or make on your behalf. 

For all such arrangements where we act as your retail agent, your contract for the supply of the service(s) in question will be the disclosed supplier of the service(s) in question. When making your booking, we will arrange for you to enter into a contract with that supplier. Your booking will be subject to these terms and conditions for our booking services, and also any booking conditions of the disclosed supplier of your travel arrangements. For the avoidance of doubt, where we sell you a Package holiday that has been organised by another supplier, we will sell that holiday as retail agent for that supplier. Where that Package holiday includes a flight, the flight will be protected by the supplier’s ATOL and the ATOL Certificate will be issued by us on behalf of that supplier. 

Making a booking

When you make a booking, you guarantee that you are over 18 and have the authority to accept, and do accept these conditions on your behalf and on behalf of all members of your party and, further, if you are making a booking for more than one person, that you are responsible for all payments due from each and every party member for whom you are making a booking.Subject to the availability of your chosen arrangements, we will confirm your holiday by issuing a confirmation invoice. This invoice will be sent to the party leader, please check this invoice carefully as soon as you receive it. Contact us immediately if any information which appears on the confirmation or any other document is incorrect or incomplete as it may not be possible to make changes later. Please ensure that names are exactly as stated in the relevant passport. 

Holiday payments

To make a booking you must pay a deposit in order to confirm your chosen arrangements. The amount of the deposit will be advised by us at the time of booking.After you have paid a deposit, you must pay the full balance by the balance due date notified to you. If full payment is not received by the balance due date, we are entitled to assume that you wish to cancel your booking. We will notify the supplier who will cancel your booking and will be entitled to keep all deposits paid or due at that date. If we do not cancel straight away because you have promised to make payment, you must pay the cancellation charges set out by the supplier if your holiday is not paid. 

Changes to your holiday 

If you wish to change any part of your confirmed arrangements you must inform us as soon as possible and we will liaise with any applicable supplier on your behalf. This should be done by the first named person on the booking. Whilst we will do our best to assist, we cannot guarantee that any supplier will be able to meet your requested change as amendments can only be accepted in accordance with their terms and conditions. You will be asked to pay for any costs incurred by ourselves and any costs or charges incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers.  

Cancelling your booking 

If you or any member of your party want to cancel your booking after we have confirmed it, the party leader must immediately advise us in writing. Your notice of cancellation will only be effective when it is received in writing by us. We will ask you to pay cancellation charges if applicable. In the event of a cancellation of a booking secured by a low deposit, we reserve the right to collect the balance of the full deposit amount. 

If the Supplier Changes or Cancels your holiday 

We will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if any supplier needs to make a significant change to your confirmed arrangements or to cancel them. We will also liaise between you and any applicable supplier in relation to any alternative arrangements offered but we will have no further liability to you.
