Where this is cheaper we will refund the difference but where it is more expensive you must pay the difference, or cancel your arrangements and receive a full refund, but no compensation will be offered.
If, before departure, there is a minor change, we will do our best to inform you in advance although we are under no obligation to do so, nor are we obliged to pay compensation.

Our liability to you
(1) We have a duty to select the suppliers of your arrangements with reasonable skill and care. We have no liability to you for the actual provision of the arrangements, except in cases where it is proved that we have breached that duty and damage to you has been caused. Therefore, providing we have selected the suppliers/subcontractors with reasonable skill and care, we will have no liability to you for anything that happens during the service in question or any acts or omissions of the supplier, its employees or agents.
We also have no liability in the following situations:
(i) where the arrangements cannot be provided as booked due to ‘force majeure’ /circumstances beyond our control.
(ii) where you incur any loss or damage that could not have been foreseen at the time of your booking, based on the information provided by you.
(iii) where you incur any loss or damage that relates to any business activity or loss of opportunity.
(iv) where any loss or damage relates to any services which do not form part of our contract with you.
(2) We limit the maximum amount we may have to pay you for any claims you may make against us. For all claims, which do not involve death or personal injury, the maximum amount we will have to pay you if we are found liable to you on any basis is the price (excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges) paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total unless a lower limitation applies to your claim. This maximum amount will only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you have not received any benefit at all from your arrangements.

The most we will have to pay to you for that claim or that part of a claim if we are found liable to you on any basis is the most the carrier concerned would have to pay under the international convention or regulation which applies to the travel arrangements or hotel stay in question.
