IMPORTANT INFORMATION including COVID 19.

  • Consumer funds do not sit with the travel agent. The consumer pays for the booking with the travel agent who then pays the supplier (airline, hotel, tour operator etc) in order for the ticket or booking to be confirmed.  It is the end supplier and not the travel agent who holds the funds.
  • The terms and conditions set by the supplier (airline, hotel, tour operator etc) determine whether the consumer receives a refund or a credit on COVID impacted travel
  • The decision as to whether it’s a refund or a credit is decided by the third-party supplier’s contract with consumers and not travel agents (AFTA deputy chair).
  • The process of securing credits and refunds on a global scale has become more complicated and complex, taking weeks and months with differing supplier terms and conditions.  In addition to this, some countries have placed rules on end suppliers not allowing refunds to leave their country.
