Valise TTC Limited Booking Terms and Conditions

1. Making a booking

1.1 Members benefit from exclusive access to our booking platform which enables them to search, book and pay for accommodation.

1.2 Once payment is complete, acknowledgement will be sent to members via email, and details will be available to view or print in the ‘My Trips” area of the member profile.

1.3 Members will be given the opportunity to note any special requests or dietary requirements during the booking process. This information will be transmitted to the accommodation provider with the booking details.

1.4 Bookings are not considered confirmed until a confirmation number has been issued by the accommodation provider.

1.5 Members must be the lead traveller, and must check in to the booked accommodation. It is the member’s responsibility to ensure that all other travellers on the booking are named accurately as per passport.

1.6 It is the member’s responsibility to ensure that they are aware of any visa, passport or health requirements for entry to their destination country/countries.

2. Payment

2.1 All payments are made in full online by credit/debit card and/or member travel credits at time of booking through secure servers.

2.2 Should a member have travel credits available, they will automatically be asked if they would like to redeem them on the current booking. Should the member agree, the relevant reduction to the final value will be applied.

3. Insurance

It is a condition of booking that members have adequate travel insurance in place to cover the countries they intend to visit, healthcare, any activities that may be undertaken while travelling, and any unexpected cancellations or amendments to travel.

4. Booking amendments and cancellations

4.1Valise TTC aims to offer members utmost flexibility, therefore we do not impose our own cancellation schedule. 

4.2 The amendment and cancellation terms vary by provider. The policies relevant to member bookings are shown clearly throughout the booking journey and on all customer documentation. By making a booking, the member agrees to these conditions and it is their responsibility to ensure they are fully aware of these terms.

4.3 Should a member wish to amend their booking before any cancellation penalties come into force, this can be done online in the ‘My Trips’ area of the member profile. This can include but is not limited to changing dates, number of passengers, number of rooms or board basis. These amendments must relate to the accommodation booked and do not cover a change of accommodation which will be treated as a cancellation. Amendments after the cancellation deadline has elapsed will be treated as a late cancellation with the associated penalties applied.

4.4 Should a member wish to cancel or change their accommodation before any cancellation penalties come into force, this can be done online in the ‘My Trips’ area of the member profile, and any refunds due will automatically transferred via the original payment method. Cancellations and changes of accommodation after the cancellation deadline has elapsed will be treated as a late cancellation with the associated penalties applied.

5. Amendments made by Us

In the highly unlikely event that we have to make a change to a member’s stay for reasons beyond our control, we will contact the member to discuss all options. This could include, but is not limited to, a change of accommodation at an equivalent or higher standard in the same location, a change of dates at the same accommodation, an alternative accommodation at a lower standard with refund of the difference, or a cancellation and full refund free of charge. We will always endeavour to find the best solution to allow our members to continue with their travels.

6. Force Majeure

Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions we will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by any event which we or the supplier(s) of the service(s) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. These events can include but are not limited to pandemics, war, threat of war, civil strife, terrorist activity and its consequences or the threat of such activity, riot, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster and adverse weather, sea, ice and river conditions and all similar events outside our or the supplier(s) concerned’s control. Advice from the Foreign Office to avoid or leave a particular country may constitute Force Majeure. We will follow the advice given by the Foreign Office.

7. Complaints

In the highly unlikely event of any issues arising during your stay, in the first instance please inform the accommodation directly, followed by us should the problem not be rectified in situ. Failure to follow this procedure deprives both the accommodation provider and Valise TTC the opportunity to investigate and resolve the matter, potentially reducing or extinguishing the amount of any compensation which may be due.

8. Jurisdiction

This agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with English law and subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.
