Terms and Conditions
The details of your (“Customer”, “you” or “your”) travel booking (“Packages”) with Foray Travels Pte Ltd (“Company”, “us”, “we” or “our”) will be set out in the Quotation/Confirmation/Invoice/Receipt to be issued to you upon making a reservation with us.
The Quotation/Confirmation/Invoice/Receipt should be read together with these terms and conditions (“Terms and Conditions”), which apply to all Packages, unless otherwise specifically stated.
Please carefully review these Terms and Conditions, before making your reservation. By making a reservation with us, you are deemed to have read, understood and accepted these Terms and Conditions.
1. Reservation, Deposit and Full Payment
To make a reservation, you need to place a deposit with us for yourself and each person accompanying you on the Packages. This deposit will form part of your final payment. The minimum deposit is specified in the Quotation. To confirm your reservation, you must also submit to us, accurate and complete passport details for all persons in your travel group, within 3 days of the deposit payment, failing which we reserve the right to treat your reservation as withdrawn and to refund the deposit to you. Payment of the deposit and confirmation of the reservation does not constitute confirmation of the Packages. All reservations upon receiving deposits are subjected to availability and changes.
We will notify you as soon as possible once your Package has been confirmed. Unless otherwise agreed or notified by us, following confirmation of your Package, you must make full payment for your Package at least 7 days before the cancellation period. If you fail to make full payment by the stipulated deadline, we shall reserve the right to treat your reservation as cancelled and to impose a cancellation fee, in accordance with clause 2 below, and to apply the deposit toward settlement of the cancellation fee, with any balance owing to be payable within 7 days, without any recourse by you against us.
​
2. Cancellation by Customer
Unless otherwise stated in the Quotation/Confirmation/Invoice/Receipt, you may cancel your reservation, in writing, at any time before the cancellation period, subject to payment of a cancellation fee to us which will be specified upon booking, if any. Please note that any change of departure date, traveller’s name (other than correction of typographical errors) or Package is considered a cancellation and a cancellation fee will apply.
​
You will be notified of the amount of the cancellation fee payable as soon as possible following cancellation of the reservation. Should the deposit be insufficient to meet the cancellation fee, you must settle the shortfall within 3 days of such notification.
​
Cancellation period varies according to the Packages, which will be stated in the Quotation/Confirmation/Invoice/Receipt.
​
Notwithstanding the above, you may cancel a reservation for a Package, without paying any cancellation fee, should a travel advisory or travel notice be issued by the Singapore Ministry of Foreign Affairs, advising against travel to one or more of the destinations included in your Package, during the proposed period of travel. In such instance, you may still be responsible for all cancellation fees imposed by the relevant third party service providers and we also reserve the right to impose an administrative fee (to be determined in our reasonable discretion) for processing the cancellation.
​
3. Cancellation by Company
​
Please note that the Company is merely acting as an intermediary to engage the services of third party service providers in respect of your Package. Even after full payment for a Package has been made, all Package arrangements are still subject to final confirmation by the relevant third party service provider(s). We shall endeavour to notify you, at least 14 days before the scheduled departure date, if, due to any unforeseen circumstance(s), any Package arrangement cannot be finalised, needs to be changed by us or your reservation has to be cancelled. In such cases, we may, but shall not be obliged to, recommend alternative Packages to either the same or another destination.
Please note that additional charges may apply for such alternative Packages and you will be advised accordingly of all such charges before having to make any election. If no alternatives are offered or should you decide not to accept any alternative offered, we will fully refund all payments received from you for the Package (without interest), in full discharge of our obligations to you.
4. Amendments by Customer
​
All rights and entitlements of a Customer or traveller in relation to any Package booked with us are personal to such Customer or traveller and may not be assigned without our express written consent. Any change to the identity of a traveller or to the designated departure date shall be deemed a cancellation of the reservation and a cancellation fee, as set out in clause 2 above, will apply. Subject to that, you may submit a written request for an amendment to the details of a reservation, such as rectification of typographical errors in a traveller’s name, changes to accommodation, at any time.
We will endeavour to accommodate or facilitate your request but cannot assure you that it can be effected. In particular, you may not be able to effect any change to certain arrangements. Where the change is possible, you shall be responsible for all additional charges and administrative fees that may be incurred to effect the change. We will endeavour to confirm the status of any request for an amendment within 14 days of receiving the written request.
​
5. Refund Policy on Unused Portion of Package
​
No refund, either in full or in part, will be made with respect to all arrangements for accommodation, meals, or other services which are included in the Package fare but not utilised by the traveller, or where the traveller amends, cancels or otherwise varies such arrangement after commencement of the Package.
​
If, before and after a Package has commenced, any service(s) in the itinerary cannot be fulfilled or any change(s) to the itinerary are necessitated for any reason(s) beyond our control, especially during peak seasons or upon the occurrence of a force majeure event, such as an act of God, earthquake, fire, tsunami or other natural disasters, weather conditions, war, civil unrest or terrorist attacks, government or legislative actions, strikes and labour unrest, diseases or pandemics, compulsory quarantines, or other similar event(s) (“Force Majeure Event”), we reserve the right to make reasonable changes to the itinerary, but shall endeavour where possible to arrange for the provision of a comparable alternative service.
Any additional expense resulting from such changes shall be payable by you and any resulting saving will be refunded by us to you. Should you reject our offer of an alternative service, we shall not be obliged to refund any fee paid by you in respect of the unfulfilled service(s), but may do so, on a case-by-case basis.
​
6. Refund Payment Mode
​
For payments made in bank transfer, refunds will be made by way of bank transfer and will generally be processed within 2 to 4 weeks from the date of cancellation. For credit card payments, refunds will be made via the respective credit card company and will generally be processed within 4 to 6 weeks from the date of cancellation. For payments made via travel gift voucher, refunds will be made via a credit voucher to be issued by us and will generally be processed within 4 to 6 weeks from the date of cancellation. The refund process may take longer during peak seasons, due to the increase in transaction volume.
​
7. Extensions of Stay or Deviations
​
Any request for an extension of stay or deviation from the Package must be in writing and may be permitted, on the terms below, subject to applicable validity periods, restrictions and availability of accommodation and/or other services.
We will endeavour to accommodate your request but cannot assure you that it can or will be effected. If, for any reason, we are unable to confirm your request, the request shall be deemed withdrawn and you shall be deemed to have consented to the original Package.
Any extension or deviation will be at your own expense. All extra costs (including a reasonable administrative fee, to be determined in our discretion) incurred to process the request for an extension or deviation will also be borne by you.
​
8. Travel Documents and Travel Insurance Passport and Other Travel Documents
​
Subject to this clause, each traveller is solely responsible for ensuring that his or her passport or other travel document is valid for at least 6 months from the expected date of departure from the last point of departure in the itinerary and that he or she has all necessary visas, permits, passes, licences, vaccinations, health certificates and/or other documents or approvals as may be required by the applicable governmental authorities of the destination country(ies) in the Package.
​
If a reservation has to be cancelled because the traveller is unable to obtain a visa or other travel document required, the relevant cancellation fee under clause 2 above will apply. We shall not be responsible, under any circumstances, for any loss, damage or expense, or to reimburse or refund any part of the Package, should any traveller be deported or refused entry by the immigration authorities of any country, for any reason, including irregular travel documents, quarantine restrictions, customs regulations, import/export restrictions, executive or administrative orders, possession of unlawful items or other criminal activities.
​
Each traveller is also solely responsible for ensuring that his or her name as provided to the Company and reflected in the Quotation/Confirmation/Invoice/Receipt tallies with the name in his or her passport or travel document. If any amendment to such name is required, all applicable fees and charges shall be borne by the traveller.
​
Visa Applications
We may, from time to time, assist a traveller to submit a visa application for a fee, but do not guarantee the outcome or approval of any such application. Different embassies or consulates require varying lengths of time to process visa applications and, accordingly, any traveller seeking our assistance to apply for a visa must check with us as soon as possible on the applicable visa requirements.
​
Travel Insurance
All travellers are strongly encouraged to obtain a comprehensive travel insurance policy to protect against unforeseen circumstances, such as baggage loss, flight delays, travel agent insolvency and medical emergencies. We shall not be responsible, under any circumstances, for any such matters.
​
9. General Matters Relating to Package
​
Accommodation
Accommodation at nominated hotels (or hotels of a similar standard) is as specified in the Package. Accommodation is generally available on either a single, twin, double- share or triple-share basis. For triple-share rooms, the third bed may be a “roll-away” bed. Single room occupancy is usually at additional cost.
​
Baggage Handling/Lost or Damaged Baggage
Travellers will be allowed check-in and hand- carry luggage according to the respective airlines’ regulations. Excess baggage must be paid locally by the travellers. We will not be responsible for the loss, damage or theft of any item(s) belonging to a traveller throughout the duration of the Package.
​
Travelling With Minors
Travellers under 18 years of age (as at the scheduled departure date) must be accompanied by an adult. If any person under 18 years old is travelling with an adult other than his or her parent or official guardian, his or her parent or official guardian is required to fill up an “Unaccompanied Minor and Handling Assistance Waiver” form. It is also the traveller’s sole responsibility to ensure that the requirements of any relevant airline and/or regulatory authority relating to minors are complied with.
​
Pregnancy
It is the responsibility of travellers who are pregnant to ensure that they have a doctor’s certification that they are fit for travel. Notwithstanding any such doctor’s certificate, third party providers, such as airlines or cruise companies, have the sole discretion to disallow a pregnant traveller to board the relevant flight or cruise or to undertake certain activities and no refund shall be payable in such event.
​
Special Requests
It is the Customer’s sole responsibility to inform the Company of any special request that a traveller may have, such as special dietary requirements, special seating arrangements, requests for adjoining rooms, requests for a smoking room, etc. at the time of reservation. All requests are subject to availability and confirmation, and we will not be responsible if any such request is not or cannot be met for any reason.
​
Travellers With Special Needs
We will use reasonable endeavours, but shall not be obliged, to accommodate the special needs of disabled travellers and shall not be responsible if we are unable to effect any requested arrangements. We shall also not be responsible for any denial of services by air carriers, hotels, restaurants or other third party service providers. We cannot provide individual assistance to any traveller for walking, dining, getting on or off motor coaches, cruise ships and other vehicles, or other personal needs. A qualified and physically able-bodied companion must accompany travellers who need such assistance and must assume full responsibility for their well-being. We are not responsible for any missed activities due to a traveller’s inability to participate in such activities.
​
We regret we must reserve the right to refuse to allow an individual to travel if he or she, in our reasonable opinion, is physically or mentally unfit to travel, or will or may require care beyond that which any travelling companion or we can generally provide in connection with the Package Deal, and no refund shall be payable in such event.
