Reconfirmations
International — You must reconfirm your continuing or return reservation at least 72 hours prior to flight time at each point of stopover or your reservation will be automatically cancelled.
Check-In Requirements
Domestic: 1 hour. International: 2 hours. NOTE: Check-in later than these times could result in denied boarding.
Changes Or Cancellations
To change or cancel your flight itinerary, call NATIONAL TRAVEL SYSTEMS or the airline you are scheduled to take. Be aware that most special, excursion and discount tickets have various travel restrictions (e.g. Saturday night layover) and may have a penalty for change or cancellation. BE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THESE RESTRICTIONS! If canceling a refundable ticket, you must return all unused tickets for refund or credit. If you are changing your tickets en route, insist that the airline apply the value of your unused ticket toward the purchase of a new ticket. If a refund is due, obtain a receipt from the airline. If you are holding guaranteed hotel reservations which you may wish to cancel, notify the hotel as soon as possible. You may be responsible for a cancellation fee levied by the hotel/tour operator.
Lost Tickets
Lost, stolen, or destroyed tickets must be paid for until refund is obtained form the issuing airline, subject to an airline imposed service charge. Some airlines will not grant a refund of any sort for lost or stolen tickets.
Bankruptcies
If an airlines/tour operator declares bankruptcy, it is not obligated to carry you or to refund tickets issued before the bankruptcy. NATIONAL TRAVEL SYSTEMS is not allowed to refund for tickets on airlines/tour operators which has declared bankruptcy. Money given to NATIONAL TRAVEL SYSTEMS immediately becomes the property of the airline/tour operators as we are governed by laws and regulations and are forced to comply. If an airline declared bankruptcy, it might continue service or stop completely. Other airlines might accept passengers under limited circumstances or may refuse any passengers from the defaulted carrier. WE RECOMMEND YOU UTILIZE A MAJOR CREDIT CARD WHEN PURCHASING TRAVEL.
