Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents shall not be responsible or liable to their customer(s) for any claims, loss or damages, or expenses arising out of injury, whether physical or mental, accidental, death or delay or inconvenience to the customer or any other person, or damage to luggage or other personal property from any cause whatsoever.

 

To the best of Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents’ knowledge and information, the description and information provided about the various services set out in the itinerary are accurate. However, Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents shall not be liable to the customer if any of the services provided by the suppliers or artists do not conform to such descriptions, living standards and practices at the destination and the standards and conditions there with respect to the provision of utilities, services and accommodation may differ from those found in Canada.

 

Travel Services 

 

All arrangements are subject to the terms and conditions imposed by the transportation companies, hotels or other forms of accommodation, restaurants, places of entertainment, the tour operator, and other such travel services, if any, and accordingly maybe subject to charges and/or restrictions for any changes or cancellation.

You are responsible for reading the terms and conditions that accompany all your travel documents. We will provide you with written material (e.g., online supplier brochure) when you or your travel organizer requests this information – if it is available to Tuxedo Travel – and we will explain the details of the services purchased. These suppliers are independent third parties over whom Tuxedo Travel exercises no direct control.

 

You understand that you may be required to provide your credit card information to a supplier directly to confirm a reservation. If the charge is processed by the supplier, then the name of such supplier will appear on your credit card statement. All costs including fares, taxes, and surcharges are subject to change without notice until full payment is received by Tuxedo Travel.  Price increases are permitted unless booking is paid in full.

 

Cancellations & Changes 

 

Cancellation penalties for purchased travel services vary depending on the travel service provider. In many cases, the price of travel services is 100% non-refundable or cancellation carries stiff penalties. Travel service arrangements may not be changeable, or they may be changeable only upon payment of a fee that is determined by the travel service provider. The customer should consult the terms and conditions provided by Tuxedo Travel and any other selected travel service providers before completing the purchase of travel services. ALL Tuxedo Travel exclusive tour payments are totally non-refundable.

 

Your Receipt/Invoice may include charges from Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents for administration fees, which are non-refundable. Additional fees and/or restrictions may apply to reservation changes and/or cancellations depending on how the travel was booked. 

 

Travel Health Information

Insurance

 

Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents offer you the option of purchasing travel insurance, including trip cancellation insurance and out of province health insurance, to insure you against the risks described in the applicable policy that may occur prior to, during or after your trip. It is recommended that each traveler purchase travel insurance.

 

There are different types of insurance packages available. The Premium Protection Plan travel insurance policy (available for travelers up to age 74) may only be purchased by the customer within 72 hours of purchasing the travel services to which the insurance relates. Coverage includes trip cancellation and trip interruption, emergency medical, baggage loss / damage / delay, and travel accident. These benefits provide coverage for accidents, injuries, unexpected illnesses, and other unforeseen events that occur during the policy period unless the event or situation causing your claim is specifically excluded in the section "what does this policy not cover?"

The Premium Protection Plan insurance will provide trip cancellation or trip interruption benefits, which will serve to protect your investment in case of unexpected and unforeseen events.

Other travel insurance policies can be purchased up to the day prior to departure but have additional limitations on their coverage and benefits.

To make an insurance claim it is your responsibility to contact the insurance carrier as soon as possible. Please contact Tuxedo Travel www.tuxedotravel.ca  or one of its Associate Agents if more information regarding travel insurance is required.

 

You acknowledge that you have been made aware of the availability of travel insurance coverage, including trip cancellation insurance and out of province health insurance, and you have either purchased or declined to purchase that insurance prior to completing the purchase of travel services.

Final travel documents will not be released unless the Premium Protection Plan travel insurance policy has been purchased through Tuxedo Travel or a release waiver has been signed.

 

 

 

Travel Documentation

 

When purchasing travel through Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents, you remain fully responsible for obtaining the correct documentation necessary for entry into your destination, intermediary point(s), and re-entry into Canada. You also understand that entry into any country may be refused even if the required information and travel documents are complete and that Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents accept no responsibility for these decisions.

You also understand that your Canadian passport must have a validity of 6 months or longer than your intended travel time for international travel. (NOTE: If you are traveling on a passport that is not Canadian notify your Trusted Travel Advisor.)

 

You also confirm that the first, middle and last names of travelers provided to Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents are as they appear on your travel documents, passports, visas, and other government-issued identification. Tuxedo Travel and its Associate Agents will take no responsibility for errors due to the provision of incorrect information by the traveler. A $50.00 charge per name correction will be charged.

 

Reconfirming Flight Times & Check-in

 

It is your responsibility to confirm your flight departure times at least 24 hours prior to departure. Some airlines will have schedule changes and your flight times may differ to what is stated on your itinerary. We recommend that you reconfirm your onward and return flights at least 3 days prior to each journey. Tuxedo Travel is not responsible for schedule changes.

 

All passengers are asked to check in at least 2 hours for domestic flights and 3 hours for international flights prior to the scheduled time of departure of their flight due to enhanced security measures. We recommend online check-in available with most airlines 24 hours prior to departure and for most cruises, at least 72 hours. Please note that all travelers must be present with their boarding documents, passport, and visas necessary for the destination. Any passenger arriving late for check-in will be denied boarding.

 

Baggage Allowance

 

The customer must consult the terms and conditions of the applicable airline for restrictions on the number and weight of baggage on chartered and scheduled service. Additional baggage fees may apply based on the airline and class of service you have selected. Lost or damaged baggage is the responsibility of the airline, which may have limited liability. Tuxedo Travel recommends the purchase of insurance for loss of, or damage to, baggage. In the event of damaged, lost, or delayed baggage, please contact the applicable airline representative prior to leaving the airport. Failure to do so will invalidate your claim.
