You are responsible for complying with any airline or other Travel Supplier conditions in relation to check-in times, reconfirmation of flights, or
other matters.
Flights Booking Terms & Conditions:
In particular, please note that in relation to air fares there are additional terms specific to that fare. For example, ‘economy restricted’ tickets are normally non- changeable and non-refundable. Flights must be used in the order set out in your itinerary – e.g., a failure to use the outbound flight or first stage of a journey could invalidate the rest of the ticket. Please note that, in relation to flight tickets, the recommended minimum check-in time is 120 minutes prior to departure for international flights and 90 minutes for domestic flights. Some airlines require you to reconfirm your return flight booking at least 72 hours before travel. Failure to reconfirm your flight booking directly with the airline may result in cancellation. In addition, the majority of airlines reserve the right to make schedule changes and cancel confirmed bookings. While Al Kamil Travel, as Agent, is not responsible for such schedule changes or cancellations, we will provide you with any reasonable assistance you require via our customer services. We strongly recommend (particularly if you are flying economy class), that you check in early if you have particular seat requests. Al Kamil Travel has no control over the allocation of seats, even if pre-booked with the airline and can make no guarantee that specific seats will be available on departure. Al Kamil Travel is not responsible for the costs of any transfers between airports or terminals that you may incur. Flights priced at special fares or best prices may not take the most direct route. Some itineraries require a change of aircraft enroute. A flight that is described as direct is one where there is no need to change aircraft during the journey. However, stops may be made enroute for re-fueling or to let passengers on and/or off. The times given are given on the 24-hour clock system, approximate and based on outbound flights.
Direct (Flight): Flights that must keep the similar flight number throughout, though it may stop for a change of aircraft (equipment). And they are different from nonstop flights, which travel directly from the departing airport to the absolute destination without stopping for connections or layovers.
Nonstop (Flight): Those Flight, that travels directly from the departure airport to the final destination without stopping for links or layovers. And they are dissimilar from direct flights, which only must carry on the same flight number all through, though it may stop for a change of aircraft.

When you buy an ATOL protected flight from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. Note: Flights that we sell as authorized ticket agent for the airline are not protected. We will tell you at the time of booking if your flight is ATOL protected and issue you with an ATOL Certificate. If you do not receive an ATOL Certificate, your flight will not be ATOL protected.

Where we sell a flight package as organizer, please refer to Clause 5 of Section B which will apply. Where your flight is ATOL protected, we or the suppliers of the services you have bought will provide you with the services you have bought (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier can do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances, the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. Non-flight package: Where we act as agent for a package organized by a third party, we will advise you of the financial protection arranged by the organizer in the case of the organizer’s insolvency.

Travelers to the United States: It is important that all travelers to the United States take note of the following:
A visa will be necessary for entry to the United States unless passengers are entitled under the Visa Waiver Scheme. The Visa Waiver Scheme allows holders of full British Citizens Passports who have the right of abode in the UK to complete a Visa Waiver Form and submit this on arrival. You must ensure that you fulfill with all US Government requirements as per the Visa Waiver Form before confirming your booking. All British passport holders, including children, traveling to the USA under the VWP (Visa Waiver Program) will need their own machine-readable passports (MRP). This means that anyone without a MRP, including children who are currently on a parent’s passport, will need a visa to travel to the USA. A British Passport is machine-readable when the white strip at the foot of the personal data page (at the back of the passport) bears two lines of print. If there’s no white strip, or the white strip is blank, then the passport is not machine-readable. For further details on entry requirements for the USA, check the US Embassy website: www.usembassy.org.uk or the Foreign & Commonwealth Office: www.fco.gov.uk. If you are not a British citizen, you should contact your Embassy for information and advice on the visa requirements of the countries you propose to visit. Please note: Passport and visa regulations can change and you should therefore check with the relevant embassy well in advance of travel. It is your responsibility to be in possession of a valid passport and if appropriate, a visa. It can often take some time to obtain a visa, so you are advised to apply in plenty of time. We accept no responsibility for customers who do not possess the correct documents. It is your responsibility to check and comply with any health requirements. We recommend that British Citizens visit the ‘Health Advice for Travelers’ section of the Department of Health’s website at www.dh.gov.uk/PolicyAndGuidance or speak to their GP. Non-British Citizens should make enquiries at their own country’s Department of Health or similar advisory body.
