By booking through Elán (Elán Travel, LLC), you agree that the following terms and conditions apply: Planning and managing your travel requires a substantial investment of time throughout your planning and travel experience, so we operate on a fee-based system for planning, bookings and cancellations. Before beginning substantive work on your travel plans, we will discuss our fees. Our fee schedule may be found at the bottom of this page. Because your plans may change due to reasons beyond your control or ours, we always suggest that you consider purchasing travel insurance. A variety of coverage plans are available, depending on your needs. Should you decide not to purchase travel insurance, you and you alone bear full personal and financial responsibility for cancellations, travel interruptions, or the failure of a supplier to deliver promised goods or services. In the event that you cancel or change reservations for any reason, we charge a cancellation/ change fee. This fee is charged in addition to any cancellation or change fee imposed by the vendor (i.e., the hotel, the airline, etc.) and is equivalent to the greater of 10% of the total price of the item canceled or $100 per item canceled. Although it is exceptionally rare, on occasion a vendor may fail to deliver as promised, or events outside their control may affect their ability to provide you with the services you expect. We will always do our best to help you recover the value of any such failure on the part of a vendor, but our responsibility to you and your guests is limited to providing that assistance. Financial liability for any failure to deliver accommodations or services is that of the vendor, and not Elán. For this reason, we suggest that, in addition to obtaining travel insurance, you always making payments through a credit card, which provides protections that are not available if you pay by cash, check, or wire transfer. Elán will endeavor to ensure that clients are aware of travel requirements for their destination, but it is the responsibility of each individual to ensure that he or she meets the requirements of his or her destination(s), including as applicable, a valid passport, necessary visas, immunizations, medical clearances, and preauthorization for carriage and the visit itself. In this respect, every traveler should consult the official government guidance of his/her destination, and the information available through the U.S. Department of State. By booking travel arrangements through Elán, each traveler agrees to assume the risk of financial loss, personal injury or death which are inherent in travel, and to hold harmless and indemnify Elán against all claims and lawsuits arising out of travel arrangements booked through Elán. We strive to ensure that your travel plans are handled with the highest degree of professionalism within Elán and when you are actually traveling. You can help us achieve this goal by carefully reviewing the reservations we make on your behalf to ensure accuracy as soon as you receive them. We urge clients to reasonable caution in their travels, to plan for unforeseen events, and to remember that ultimately your safety and that of your family is yours. Should you have any questions about any of these policies, please feel free to reach out to us.
