7. Legal Clarification Regarding Bookings Made Through International Suppliers and Partners
It is hereby clarified and emphasized that when purchasing and/or placing an order on the Website for air travel services (flights) and/or any ground services (including hotels, accommodations, car rentals, attractions, etc.), the customer hereby gives their consent and declares that they are aware that where the supplier bearing full responsibility for the booking — including the airline, hotel chain, place of accommodation, or global distribution system — is an international/foreign entity that is not subject to and/or does not honor Israeli consumer protection law (the Consumer Protection Law, 5741-1981, including its transaction cancellation provisions), the customer shall have no right to a refund, cancellation, or remedy under that law against the Company and/or against the supplier.
Furthermore, where the booking is in fact carried out via a referral from the Website to one of our international partners or to external international booking systems, the transaction is entered into directly between the user and that international entity, and Israeli consumer protection law will not apply to it in any way. The customer bears sole responsibility for reviewing the foreign supplier's cancellation terms prior to completing the booking, and waives any claim and/or demand against the Website and its management in this regard.
8. Single Travel Services — Statutory Right of Withdrawal (EU / UK Customers)
Where a customer books a single travel service only (for example: a flight alone, a hotel alone, a car rental alone, or a single attraction/activity ticket) tied to a specific date or period of performance, this service is, under the applicable consumer protection framework of the customer's country of residence — including, where relevant, the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU, Article 16(l), and the UK Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 — statutorily excluded from the general 14-day right of withdrawal applicable to other online purchases. Accordingly, cancellation of such a service is governed solely by the applicable cancellation terms of the relevant supplier and of the Website as set out in this section, and not by a general cooling-off right.
9. Combined Travel Arrangements Displayed as a Bundle (Flight + Hotel, Flight + Car, etc.)
The Website may present a combination of two or more travel services (for example, a flight together with a hotel) within a single widget or page, for the customer's convenience and comparison purposes, at a total displayed price. It is clarified that, regardless of how these services are presented or displayed together on the Website, each individual travel service within such a combination is booked, priced, and paid for directly and separately through the payment and booking system of its respective supplier (whether a pre-assembled combination sourced from a third-party booking platform, or services assembled individually by the Company on the customer's behalf). The Company does not itself receive or hold the customer's payment for these travel services, does not act as the organiser of a "package" within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2015/2302 on package travel and linked travel arrangements or any equivalent legislation, and does not bear organiser liability, insolvency protection obligations, or any other obligation imposed on package organisers under such legislation.
The contract for each travel service within the combination is entered into directly between the customer and the relevant supplier, whose own terms of service, cancellation policy, and consumer protections (including, where applicable, that supplier's own insolvency protection arrangements) govern that service. The Company's role is limited to that of an intermediary that presents, compares, and facilitates the customer's booking with the relevant supplier(s), as further described in section 7 above. The customer is advised to review the identity of the actual contracting supplier and its applicable terms prior to completing any booking.
Availability and Regional Location
The availability of services is subject to the time agreed upon with the online travel agency and the Website operators.
For any questions or inquiries regarding the services, you can contact us through the site.
Shipping Policy
All products on the Website are digital/online, whether it is a travel plan or any planning/consulting service, and are available for direct download. Delivery of the product will take place immediately after purchase and order confirmation, via a download link sent to the customer's email address. Alternatively, the customer may log into their personal account on the Website and download the product directly from there.
Digital Products / Ready-Made Downloadable Itineraries
If, after purchasing a ready-made downloadable travel itinerary, the customer wishes to make personal changes and adjustments to it (such as: adjusting dates, synchronizing the trip's segments and arrival times with their specific flights, or any other adjustment requiring the intervention and working time of an agency expert) — this service is available and open to our customers.
It is clarified that any change or personal adjustment constitutes a separate service and will be priced in addition to the cost of the original product. Pricing varies from product to product and from itinerary to itinerary, and is determined according to the scope of work required. An exact price quote will be given to the customer by a Company representative prior to the commencement of the changes.
- Personal use only: The digital product (travel itinerary) is intended for the personal use of the purchaser only. Copying, distributing, sharing, or selling the file or the download link to any third party without express written permission from the agency is strictly prohibited.
- Accuracy of information: The agency invests significant effort in keeping the information appearing in the itineraries up to date, but it is clarified that it bears no responsibility for changes in schedules, attraction prices, opening hours, or availability of places mentioned in the itineraries. Such details may change from time to time by external suppliers, and the customer is responsible for verifying the information with the supplier prior to arrival.
- Refund policy: Digital products and reproducible information are not subject to cancellation once supplied, consistent with the standard treatment of digital content that cannot be "returned" under consumer protection frameworks, including Israeli law and comparable international frameworks such as the EU Consumer Rights Directive and other jurisdictions' distance-selling regulations. Accordingly, once the download link has been sent to the customer or access to the file has been granted, no monetary refund of any kind will be given for the purchase of the digital product. Where the customer resides outside of Israel, mandatory consumer protection provisions of the customer's own jurisdiction, to the extent they cannot lawfully be waived, remain unaffected by this clause; however, the customer acknowledges that digital content delivered upon consent is commonly and lawfully excluded from cancellation rights under most such frameworks.
