Terms and Conditions for booking U3A Travel Trips
Insurance
Members are reminded that they are responsible for their own insurance. It is recommended to take out your own travel insurance for the fullest cover possible. U3A is not liable in any respect for any loss or injury that may be suffered by Members whilst participating in the Association’s activities.
Please note that, at times, it is necessary for the U3A to make deposits with travel agents for future trips, and whilst we do not anticipate any such problems, in the event of a travel agent or hotelier becoming bankrupt, Moraira U3A would not be in a position to refund any losses that might occur. Travel Agents in Spain are registered and bonded by a government scheme that provides compensation in such cases, similar to ABTA and ATOL.
Cancellation Policy
Monies paid for trips are Non-refundable unless we can resell the cancelled places or the travel group cancels the trip when all monies will be refunded. However, any monies that have been paid to a third party e.g. Agent, Hotel, Travel Operator’s, etc. cannot be refunded unless and until the Travel group receives the money from them. Airline tickets are not normally refundable, but your insurance may cover cancellation in certain circumstances.
