Making
a Booking
When
you make a booking with us, you undertake that you have the
authority to accept and do accept these booking conditions on behalf
of yourself and your party. A contract will exist upon our accepting
any monies from you towards the booking or upon the issue of our
confirmation, voucher or itinerary, whichever is the earlier. These
conditions in conjunction with the information set out in our
published information from the entire agreement between yourself and
Planet Action Adventure Tour Services. When you make a booking with
Planet Action Adventure Tour Services and we accept it, the total
cost of the Philippine Travel Package becomes due and payable
immediately, unless we have agreed in writing that you may pay an
initial deposit. In any event, the full amount of your Philippine
Travel Package must be credited to Planet Action Adventure Tour
Services a minimum of 10 working days BEFORE your scheduled
departure.
Prices
Prices
are fixed at the time of booking and generally will not be subject
to any surcharges, unless otherwise stated. The only exception will
be an increase in our costs arising as the result of any government
action including but not limited to, new or increased taxes such as
VAT. When a surcharge is payable an administration charge of $5.00
per person, together with an amount to cover travel agents
commission (if applicable) will be added. If this means that you
have to pay more than 20% of the original booking price you will be
entitled to a full refund of all monies paid in respect of your
booking, except an amendment charge. Should you decide to cancel
because of this then you must exercise your right to do so within
fourteen (14) working days from the date we advised you of the
amount due.
We
reserve the right to change our prices at any time before you book
including any special rates that we may offer from time to time,
which may not be the same as those published on this website. Please
note that ALL RATES are determined based on the actual time of
travel, and NOT the booking date. In some cases, posted rates may
expire or become invalid after the booking date and before the
actual date of travel. In this case, we will confirm and charge the
new rate that will be in effect at the time of travel. (see VALID
FROM DATES below room rates, to confirm validity)

If
We Amend your Booking
In
the event that changes may become necessary, we reserve the right to
make at any time. Most of these changes are minor and we will advise
you at the earliest possible date. Flight times and carriers set out
in publicity material are subject to change and all details given to
you are for guidance only.
Confirmed
dates will be as shown on your itinerary and air tickets. Should a
material change become necessary, we will inform you as soon as
reasonably possible. You may decide whether or not to accept the
change, however you must accept or reject the proposed change in
writing within 48 hours of notification, otherwise we will assume
that you have accepted the proposed change.
A
material change is one made to your travel arrangements before
departure, involving change of departure or arrival airport (other
than between airports within the same city airport system) outward
or return flights being re-scheduled by more than 12 hours, or by
substitution of accommodation originally booked with one of a lower
grade. If we alter the airline, aircraft type operating your flight
or routing, this is not considered a material change and we will be
under no obligation to notify you of such change in advance.
If
you do not wish to accept a material change, we will give you a full
refund and in addition, whether or not you accept a material change
prior to departure, we will also give you compensation for your
inconvenience based on the following:

-
30
days or more | $ 0
- 5
days to 29 days | $10
- 4
days or less | $20
Accommodations
As
we do not control the day-to-day management of your accommodations,
it is possible that we may be advised that the reserved
accommodation may not be suitable or available upon your arrival. If
this happens, we will aim to provide accommodation of at least the
same standard, in the same geographic area. If only accommodation of
a lower standard is available, then we will refund the difference of
the advertised price between the accommodation booked and that
available together with compensation of $10.00 per person for your
inconvenience.
Important
Notice: We are not responsible for changes which arise as a result
of events outside of our control, such as technical or maintenance
problems with transportation, changes imposed by re-scheduling or
cancellation of flights by an airline, or main charter company, war
or threat of war, civil strife, industrial disputes, natural
disasters, bad weather or terrorist activity.
If
We Cancel your Booking
We
reserve the right in any circumstance to cancel your booking.
However, in no case will we cancel your booking less than 15 days
prior to departure, unless it is for reasons outside of our control
or for non-receipt of payment by you. If we do cancel your booking
(other than for late or non-payment) we will offer you a full refund
of all monies paid in respect of the Travel booking.
Our
Liability
Our
obligations, and those of our suppliers providing any service or
facility involved in any part of your Travel are to take reasonable
skill and care to arrange for the provision of such services and
facilities and, where we or our supplier is actually providing the
service or facility, to provide them with reasonable skill and care.
Compliance with any applicable regulatory requirements (such as, for
example, those of the Civil Aviation Authority) will be proper
performance of our, and our suppliers’, obligations. You must
show that reasonable skill and care has not been used, if you wish
to make any claim against us.
Documentation
Where
travel and health documents are necessary to comply with the
requirements of the Philippines Islands you may wish to visit, then
it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to procure them. If failure to obtain any
such documents results in fines, surcharges or any other financial
penalty being imposed upon us, then you agree to reimburse us
accordingly. You must ascertain by consulting your own doctor, if
necessary the specific precautions deemed prudent for the country or
destination you intend to visit and to ensure that the appropriate
medication, inoculations or other precautions are taken.
Conditions
of Carriage & Accommodations
We
are neither a carrier nor a provider of accommodations. Each journey
(whether undertaken or not) that you book by land, sea or air is
governed by the conditions of the carrier undertaking to provide
that carriage. Some of these conditions limit or exclude liability
and are often the subject of international agreements. Copies of the
applicable agreements are available for inspection at the offices of
the carrier concerned.
It
is your responsibility to re-confirm the onward or return sectors of
any air journey with the carrier concerned or such carrier’s
duly authorized Travel agents and according to such carrier’s
regulations. When you book accommodations (whether provided or not)
its availability or provision is subject to the ‘house rules’
of the hotel or other accommodation providing or undertaking to
provide such accommodations.
Termination
We
reserve the right in our absolute discretion to terminate your
travel without notice should your behavior be such that it is likely
in our opinion, to cause distress, damage, annoyance or danger to
any other person. In such circumstances, no refund or compensation
will be due to you.
Unused
Services
No
refund will be due to you in respect to the non-utilization of any
part of the Travel arrangements made for you by Planet Action
Adventure Tour Services .
Insurance
It
is a condition of the agreement between us, that you personally take
out adequate travel insurance against cancellation charges,
unexpected curtailment of your vacation, medical expenses arising
overseas including repatriation, loss or damage to luggage and
personal liability claims against you.
Should
you fail to secure such Philippines Travel Insurance coverage prior
to your Philippines Travel, then you accept full responsibility for
yourself and all of the members of your party, and indemnify Planet
Action Adventure Tour Services and our overseas Philippines Travel
agents and representatives (as applicable) for any and all costs
that may arise, which would otherwise have been met, had such
Philippines travel insurance been in force.
Complaints

do our VERY BEST to ensure that your travel arrangements go
according to plan. However, if you have a complaint arising out of
what we have agreed to provide for you, please let us know at the
earliest possible opportunity. If necessary, please call our

Note: that if you do not follow our complaint procedure, we CAN
NOT accept responsibility for your complaint, as we would have been
deprived of the opportunity to investigate the matter on your
behalf, and where possible, help you to resolve the problem.
