INSURANCE: Majestic Dream Vacations sells travel insurance and has provided you detailed information and the opportunity to purchase travel insurance. Many insurance companies require the policy to be purchased and written within a certain time frame in order to cover things such as pre-existing medical conditions and supplier default. Majestic Dream Vacations has informed you of this deadline, and highly recommends the purchase of travel insurance to protect your vacation investment. If charges for travel insurance are not listed on your booking statement, you have not paid for insurance within the required timeframe or an insurance policy number is not noted on your final invoice, you have elected to DECLINE Travel Insurance even if you initially checked “accept” on your original invoice. Insurance claim approval is determined by the travel insurance company, and Majestic Dream Vacations accepts absolutely no responsibility for any denied claims. The purchase of travel insurance to cover your vacation investment is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for unexpected circumstances that neither the travel agent nor the client can control. It is to be noted that if you do not add travel insurance, your entire trip investment may be at risk. It is also important to note that your personal US medical coverage may not cover you outside the US and each traveler should consult their benefits department for full disclosure of those details.

SPECIAL REQUESTS: Special Requests, (i.e. room views, location, bedding preference, adjoining rooms, seat requests, etc.) cannot be guaranteed by the travel agency/tour operator/airline. While every attempt will be made to accommodate such special requests, the travel agency/tour operator/airline will not be held responsible if such requests cannot be fulfilled. Airline seat requests also cannot be guaranteed even if we note preferences. If a schedule change occurs, it is possible to be moved to a different flight and existing seat assignments may no longer be honored. The travel agency does not have control over the airline nor their seating policies.

PAYMENTS: Payments by credit or debit card are preferred, and by authorizing charges to your card you expressly waive the right to chargebacks as a means to mediate disputes. Please note that checks are accepted for final payments (within 4 weeks of final payment date) and for initial deposits or airline only tickets. These must be made by credit or debit card only. Returned checks are subject to a $35 returned check fee, and future payments by check will no longer be accepted. If a credit card is declined, agent will attempt to contact client to remedy the situation. It is important to note that the package price may increase while the details are trying to be corrected in the matter of a credit card decline. CLIENTS SHOULD NOTE THAT EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE PAID FOR A VACATION PACKAGE OR SEGMENTS IN ADVANCE, HOTELIERS, AIRLINES, RENTAL CAR COMPANIES AND OTHER VENDORS WILL ASK FOR A CREDIT CARD TO BE USED DURING TRAVEL FOR INCIDENTAL CHARGES, BAGGAGES FEES, RENTAL CAR GUARANTEE, ETC. NEVER TRAVEL WITHOUT A CREDIT CARD WHICH CAN BE USED FOR THESE PURPOSES! IF YOU ARE USING A DEBIT CARD FOR DURING TRAVEL CHARGES, YOU SHOULD EXPECT THAT POSSIBLE HOLDS CAN BE PLACED ON YOUR ACCOUNT FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND THAT MIGHT AFFECT YOUR SPENDING CASH. Always check with your bank to see if your card incurs foreign transaction fees if you plan to travel outside the US. Monthly payments are required on all group trips to keep your reservation current.

CANCELLATIONS, CHANGES AND REFUNDS: Once payment is applied to a booking, cancellation/change penalties will apply. Cancellation policy vary from supplier to supplier. Cancellation requests MUST BE RECEIVED IN WRITING prior to your departure date, and you must receive a written reply from us confirming cancellation has been made.

Charter flights may have different requirements than commercial flights. Majestic Dream Vacations will make every attempt to assign seats in advance, however if we are unable to assign seats on your flight for any reason, seats will be assigned upon check-in at the airport and are on a first come, first served basis. While seat assignments are made by the airline, we are unable to guarantee that clients will be seated with their traveling companions. For security reasons, all passengers must be present identification for check-in. You will not be allowed to board, nor will you be entitled to a refund, if you have not checked in by the required time. Please ensure you contact your airline at least 24 hours prior to departure and on the day of departure, as it is your responsibility to reconfirm all your flight details before departure.

If our agency is aware of any schedule changes in advance of your departure, every effort will be made to advise you directly. Clients should understand that being a no show for a flight, may result in the other leg of your flight being cancelled by the airline without notice. ALL airlines charge baggage fees and you should visit the airline website to determine what charges are applicable to your flight and destination. Some seats assignments also have a service fee associated and all seats booked may not be upgradeable. Again, client has responsibility to visit airlines website or contact customer service with said airline to determine exact parameters as applicable to your ticket.
