TERMS OF PURCHASE
You may use the Site to make legitimate reservations and/or purchases, but
you cannot use the Site to make any speculative, false, or fraudulent
reservation, any reservation in anticipation of demand, or for any purpose
that is deemed unlawful or prohibited by these Terms. Violators may be
prosecuted to the maximum extent of the law. You cannot (i) use any device,
software, or routine that interferes or attempts to interfere with the
normal operation of the Site; (ii) perform any action that is deemed by us
to impose a burden or unreasonable load on our computer equipment; (iii) use
any "robot," "spider," or other automatic device (or a program, algorithm,
or methodology with similar processes or functionalities), or any manual
process or functionality, to monitor, assemble, analyze, index, copy,
transmit, distribute, transfer, or link to any of the pages, data,
materials, or content available on this Site.
Unless otherwise stated, all of the services and products offered on the
Site are subject to the following: Offers: (i) are informational only and
may not reflect current availability; (ii) apply to US and Canadian
point-of-sale and point-of-ticketing only (void where prohibited by law) and

Lower prices may be available. If your itinerary involves an ultimate
destination or stop in a country other than the country of departure, the
provisions of a treaty known as the "Warsaw Convention" may be applicable to
your entire trip, including any portion entirely within the country of
origin or destination. The Warsaw Convention governs and may limit the
liability of certain air carriers for death of or personal injury to
passengers and/or loss of or damage to baggage.
You agree to abide by all other additional terms and conditions applicable
to your reservation(s), purchase(s) of goods and services, request(s) to
purchase, use of software, and other uses of portions of the Site,
including, but not limited to, paying all amounts owed on a timely basis and
complying with all rules and restrictions regarding availability of fares,
paper airline tickets, products, programs or services, and use of software.
Because you agree to be legally responsible for the purchase terms related
to all of your reservations and for all charges, fees, penalties, duties,
taxes, and assessments that result from your use of the Site, we encourage
you to take the time to carefully review the terms of the offer, including,
but not limited to, any fare or rate rules related to an airfare purchase.
If you do not understand the fare or rate rules, or any code-share flight
information, please contact us.
No reservation is complete until confirmed/ticketed. To protect our
customers, we verify with the credit/debit card company that the billing
address and credit card verification number you provided to us is accurate
and that the debit/charge will be accepted. Until such information is
verified, the fare is subject to change. We are not responsible for any
transaction that is declined based upon a credit/debit card that is declined
by the issuing company or a travel provider or if, for any reason, the
debit/credit card billing address and/or credit card verification number
cannot be verified in a timely manner, nor are we responsible for any
changes in fare or any other charges that may occur during our verification
process.
Unless otherwise specified, once confirmed/ticketed, most reservations
cannot be transferred, changed, upgraded, or cancelled/refunded; if a
transfer, change, upgrade, or cancellation/refund is permitted, penalties
will apply, including additional service, processing, and/or cancellation
fees to be assessed by us and/or the travel provider(s). If you wish to
change or cancel a reservation, contact us immediately.
