Payments
must be received by the payment date, and without the
deduction of any transfer fees. Late payments risk
cancellation of reservations as we must maintain
relationship with our suppliers.
a.
Tours and hotel packages
For standard tours and packages, a deposit of 30% of the tour or package cost per person is needed within
10 days to confirm the reservation. The balance is due
30 days prior to arrival in the country.
b.
Hotels
Full payment
must be made at the time of reservation.
Cancellation policy
Rights
to refunds if you change or cancel your reservation are
sometimes limited as we usually need to prepay some
suppliers, and our negotiated rates are obtained through
committing to advance payment. We strongly recommend you
purchase trip insurance including trip cancellation and
interruption insurance, which may reimburse you for
cancellation penalties and extra trip expenses should a
circumstance covered by the policy force you to cancel
or interrupt your trip. In the event we cancel a trip,
for any reason, all money for services described in the
reserved itinerary, less airline ticket cancellation
fees, will be refunded.
Any
cancellation by a client must be made in writing (email,
fax or other). The date on which the cancellation notice
is received by the company or its agents will determine
the applicable cancellation fee.
Refund
checks will normally be mailed within three weeks of
cancellation, assuming we experience no difficulty or
delay in receiving the corresponding refund(s) from the
suppliers involved.
Once
travel commences there will be no refunds made on unused
portions, nor is the price or value exchangeable for
alternative services. Aisa King Travel prepays hotels
and tour operators. If you should not use some portion
of your reservation and the hotel or tour operator is
willing to give you credit, you must have a signed
letter from the manager requesting Aisa King Travel
to issue a refund.
Unless
indicated otherwise at or prior to the time of
reservation, the following charges per person will apply
in the event of cancellation prior to arrival:

charge $50 per change to alter reservations once they
are confirmed, plus any other
applicable cancellation fees as imposed by our service
providers such as hotels or cruise companies, and such
fees are due immediately when the amendment request is
made. Cancellation fees may apply, as outlined
above, if suppliers are changed or the existing
reservation is imminent.
d.
Groups
Different cancellation rules may apply for groups and
those are indicated in our quotation.
e.
Special conditions
Some suppliers, such as cruise operators, some hotels
and tour operators, have specific deposit and
cancellation policies which are more onerous than those
above, and which we have to follow. This may also apply
for some high season bookings. These "special
conditions" are featured in our websites, or are
indicated at or prior to booking. You should make sure
you ask in the event you are unclear as to the relevant
policies. We will use our best endeavours to seek full
refund for the deposit, tour or the unused portions of
the tour, as appropriate under the indicated
cancellation policy, but will not be liable for any
amounts which suppliers and providers of services refuse
to refund, for whatever reason.
