• There may be times when either party is unable to perform, or complete performance, under the travel contract for reasons out of each other’s control.

Events that may trigger this provision include but are not limited to, acts of God, acts of government, acts of war or civil unrest, insurrection or revolts, military action, strikes or other labor activities, criminal or terrorist activities of any kind, or the threat thereof, pandemics, epidemics, illnesses or health conditions prevalent in the area of travel, earthquakes, hurricanes, lightning, and explosions, unexpected legislation, or any other event outside the reasonable control of either party.

• In the event that a force majeure event occurs, the parties will look to and follow the cancellation policies of the suppliers, what is stated in the travel proposal, and these terms & conditions. Any changes to those policies are at the sole discretion of the supplier (if applicable) and Travel Agency. Passengers will be informed of their options if a force majeure event occurs.

​

9. Travelers with disabilities​​

• International Tours: Hotels, sea, and river cruises outside of the United States are not required to comply with ADA requirements and, therefore, may not have ramps, wide entryways, or elevators to accommodate disabled passengers or devices such as wheelchairs, walkers, and motorized scooters. 

• Service Animals: Please check with airlines and the your destination of travel for any requirements or restrictions of service animals. 

​

10.AIRLINES

SimpliTravel by Kim LLC is not responsible for the services and policies imposed by the airlines. Airline schedules and flights are subject to change without notice. 

• Airline Name Changes: Any name change, including minor spelling corrections, may require airline reservations to be canceled and rebooked. Reservations are subject to current availability and pricing at the time of rebooking. Once airline tickets are issued, subsequent name corrections will be subject to an airline rebooking fee which may be as much as the full value of the airline ticket plus a $50 revision fee per change. Simplitravel by Kim LLC will not be held responsible for the denial of services by a carrier due to any name discrepancy. Name changes must be advised in writing at kim@simplitravelbykim.com.

• Airline Taxes & Fuel Surcharges: If you purchased airfare, airline taxes, and fuel surcharges are included. Prior to the completion of full payment, there is a potential for a price increase(s) due to increases in government-levied taxes and fees and/or fuel surcharges. To avoid potential increases, you may choose to accelerate your final payment in order that your tickets may be issued. Once issued, airline tickets are no longer subject to potential increases but are fully non-refundable. Certain overseas domestic flights are subject to air taxes which can only be paid locally; in these cases, the specific flights and amounts of those taxes are indicated in our package presentation and pre-departure documentation.

• Schedule Changes: In the event of an airline schedule change,Simplitravel by KIm LLC will make every effort to inform passengers of the schedule change and new flight schedule prior to departure. Simplitravel by KIm LLC is not responsible for schedule changes, including, when applicable, changes in routing and/or the number of stops in the itinerary.

In the event of any change in flight itinerary made directly between passengers and their airline, it is the passengers’ responsibility to advise Simplitravel by KIm LLC of amended flight details in writing at kim@simplitravelbykim.com. Simplitravel by KIm LLC cannot be held responsible for land services, including arrival and/or departure transfers if flights are changed without its knowledge.

​

11. Hotel Accomodations (Groups)

• All rooms requested are standard twin-bedded (two single beds) rooms with private facilities unless you have specifically requested a king/ double size bed. Please understand although we will make a bed type request on your behalf, bed types are subject to availability. Room selection in all cases is strictly at the discretion of the hotel’s management on a run-of-house basis. Some single rooms are smaller than a standard room size. The number of persons accommodated does not dictate the room size.

• Although available at most 4 and 5-star hotels, the use of air-conditioning abroad differs greatly from the United States. Many European hotels were built before central air- conditioning was introduced. Air-conditioning is often shut down at night and from the end until the start of the summer months. All hotel rates are not negotiable and based on SimpliTravel by Kim LLC agreements with its suppliers. Hotel check-in time is generally not before 3:00 p.m., and check-out time is before noon. Please be sure that adequate arrangements for accommodations have been taken into consideration when a late-night flight is being used. We reserve the right to make substitutions with hotels of equal standard. There will be no refunds for any difference in the cost of those accommodations.​
