Price Accuracy
Prices quoted throughout this site are subject to change and the services offered subject to availability.

Hotel and Cruise Ship Star Ratings
The Hotel and Cruise Ship star ratings featured on Best At Travel PLC sites are offered as a general guide and do not represent any official grading system. Actual standards may vary between different Hotel rooms or cabin types and star ratings are for guidance only. Standards can vary between hotels and accommodation of the same class in different countries, and even in the same country. Different countries have different standards; a 5 star hotel in one country is not necessarily equivalent to a 5 star hotel in another

Please note that the hotels and cruise ships booked by us for you are not exclusive to Best At Travel PLC. We are not responsible for any limitation in facilities because of other hotel, or ship guests or their activities. Best At Travel PLC does not take responsibility for hotel or ship content (including images, facility listings, etc.) displayed on our website. Hotels and ships may change facilities and property features without prior notice to Best At Travel PLC and it is the customers’ responsibility to confirm facilities directly with the hotel or line at the time of travel

Images of room or cabin types do not necessarily represent the bed configuration of the room being purchased. For example, a triple room in North America may consist of one double bed and one single bed or a double room in Austria may consist of two single beds. Also, there may be an additional charge for extra beds or cots. Please contact the hotel or line directly to confirm the exact bed configuration before purchase if required.

Map/Distance Disclaimer
Please note that the information as to the distance from the city centre and the location of the hotel on the maps provided are for indicative purposes only. If you require the hotel to be within a certain distance from the city centre or near a particular location, you should contact the hotel in question prior to booking

Carrying Proof of Booking
You should ensure that you travel with your booking confirmations, e-tickets and any other travel documentation (including your passport and relevant visa) at all times. We will not be liable should any Supplier not provide you with the booked product or service if you do not produce such documentation.

Please note: Photo identification of the person whose name is on the booking must be provided when checking in to hotels or cruise lines.

Information You Provide Us With
Best At Travel PLC relies on the information that you provide as being accurate and therefore cannot be held responsible if your e-ticket does not arrive due to an incorrect email address or your junk email settings. You must notify us immediately if you change your email address or contact telephone number. In addition, please check that the name on your passport matches the name on your ticket and/or booking confirmation.

Special Assistance
If you are disabled or incapacitated or of limited mobility or require special assistance for any reason, we require that you notify us at the time of making your booking. If these requirements change before your trip you must inform us. We will not subsequently be liable to you for any losses you may incur in the event that we or our Suppliers are unable to accommodate your requirements.

Credit Cards
In an effort to minimise the effects of credit card fraud, we reserve the right to carry out random checks, including checks of the electoral roll, and may request you to either fax or post to us proof of your address and a copy of the credit card and recent statement before issuing any tickets. Please be aware that these checks are only carried out during our standard business hours. As a result, any tickets for bookings made outside of our business hours may not be issued until the next working day. Best At Travel PLC is not responsible for any costs incurred as a result of these checks. You also recognise that in order to process your requirements you have authorised us to transmit information (including any updated information) or to obtain information about you from third parties from time to time, including but not limited to your debit or credit card number or credit reports, to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit card, to obtain an initial credit card authorisation and to authorise individual purchase transactions.
