Zara Travel & Tours Terms and Conditions
Agency:
This is the privacy notice of Zara Travel and Tours. In this document, “we,” “our” or “us” refers to Zara World Travel Pty Ltd registered in Australia with ABN: 70619415628. Zara Travel & Tours acts as an agent on behalf of various travel suppliers, including airlines, accommodation providers, cruise lines, rental car companies, wholesalers, and other travel suppliers. ZTT is governed by the Terms and Conditions of these suppliers. While ZTT makes every effort to ensure that travel products are delivered as advertised, it does not guarantee their fulfillment as ZTT is solely a reseller of these products.
b. Our obligation is to make travel bookings on your behalf with these service providers. We have no responsibility for the services provided by these third-party providers and do not provide any warranty or representation regarding their standard.
c. All bookings are subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations of liability imposed by the service providers. Your legal recourse is against the specific provider, not Zara Travel & Tours.
d. If a travel service provider is unable to provide the services you have contracted, your remedy lies against the provider, not Zara Travel & Tours.
e. Zara Travel & Tours will not be responsible for any damages resulting from missed flights due to delays by any airline when traveling with a combination fare.
Liability:
a. We do not accept any liability, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, for the acts, omissions, or defaults of third-party providers over whom we have no direct control.
b. In circumstances where liability cannot be excluded, our liability is limited to the value of the purchased travel arrangements.
c. We do not accept any liability, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, for any injury, damage, loss (including consequential loss), delay, additional expense, or inconvenience caused directly or indirectly by force majeure or any other event beyond our control, which is not preventable by reasonable diligence on our part.
Offers:
All offers and promotions for services sold through ZTT are subject to availability, and any advertised promotions apply only to new bookings. ZTT reserves the right to withdraw offers at any time and without notice.
Deposits and Payments:
a. At the time of booking, ZTT requires a non-refundable deposit of $175 per person for international bookings and $100 per person for domestic bookings. This deposit covers ZWT’s time and effort in the event of booking cancellation. Note that this deposit is part of the overall quote for your travel and not an additional charge.
b. ZTT will outline the schedule of payments required to secure and finalize your booking. Failure to pay the deposits or final payments to suppliers by the due date may result in cancellation of your booking. ZWT may assist in rebooking the itinerary, but availability and pricing may vary.
c. Failure to meet final payment deadlines may also lead to cancellation, and any refund of deposit payments will be subject to the suppliers’ Terms and Conditions.
d. Once you have made a payment toward a booking, it is assumed that you have read and understood these Terms and Conditions.
e. Card payments will incur additional fees of 2% for Amex or Diners cards and 1.50% for Visa or Mastercard.
f. If a supplier fails to provide the purchased product, your remedy lies against the supplier and not against ZTT.
g. International travel arrangements are generally paid to the supplier in their local or nominated currency. If prices are quoted in Australian Dollars, they are based on the exchange rate at the time, and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates may result in price changes. The quoted price in Australian Dollars will be honored if you have paid the full amount at the time of receiving the quote. Suppliers may impose additional charges before your final payment, and ZTT is not liable for such changes. Quoted rates are correct at the time of booking and are subject to change with or without notice.

i.
ZTT is registered for GST, and this tax applies to all domestic travel booked as part of your itinerary.
Confirmations and Documentation:
A. Upon booking your travel itinerary, ZTT will send you a written confirmation. However, bookings are not considered finalized until all payments have been made.
B. Final documentation from travel suppliers will not be issued until they have received full payment for their part of your itinerary. Each supplier will have their own terms regarding deposits, final payments, and overall Terms and Conditions that govern their portion of your itinerary.
C. Upon receiving your travel documents, it is your responsibility to check that they accurately reflect your booking. Notify ZTT promptly of any necessary amendments to avoid disruptions to your travel. Provide passenger names exactly as they appear in your passports, as any discrepancies may result in refusal to board by a cruise line or airline. Additionally, inform ZTT of any changes in circumstances, such as adding a new baby to your passport or obtaining a separate passport for them.
D. All passengers departing Australia must possess a valid passport with a minimum of 6 months’ validity beyond the return date to Australia. ZTT requires a copy of your passport before making final bookings. If you are traveling on a non-Australian passport, it may affect your visa requirements for the countries in your itinerary and your right to return to Australia.
E. Please carefully review your itinerary before booking, as any changes will incur a fee of $95 per person charged by ZTT for the time required to make the changes. Additionally, the supplier may also impose change fees, which will be communicated before any changes are made.
