4. CANCELLATION CONDITIONS AND FEES

If it is necessary for a client to cancel their itinerary, the client must inform Paris-Toujours and their insurer by any means possible, as soon as possible, after the event causing the cancellation takes place and obtain written acknowledgement of this communication. The date of the initial written
correspondence with Paris-Toujours regarding the cancellation issue will be the date applied to the calculation of the cancellation fee. We draw your attention to the fact that it is the insurance company who assesses the case and reimburses the cancellation fee based on the documents provided directly
to the insurance company by the client and the date of the client’s decision to cancel the itinerary.

4.1. Total Cancellation fee for tailor-made itineraries & tours, except for special cases (see 4.3)

• €250 for itineraries lasting up to 8 days
• €400 for itineraries lasting more than 8 days
The total value of the cancellation fees (services fees + flat fee) will not exceed the total price of the Itinerary inclusive of all taxes.

4.2. Partial cancellation fee for tailor-made itineraries & tours , except for special cases (see 4.3)

If one or more clients listed on the same booking form cancel their itinerary, which is continued by the other participants:
– For individual services (unshared): the scale of cancellation charges referred above (4.1) will be calculated, for the client(s) cancelling their itinerary, on the costs of the individual services not already consumed on the date of cancellation;
– For shared services: 100% of price, whatever the date of cancellation, will be charged to client(s) cancelling their participation to the itinerary on the proportionate individual share of the costs of the shared services.

4.3. Special cases:

• 100% cancellation fee may be applied for the booking of specific hotels.
• Paris-Toujours can offer clients exceptional products primarily due to competitive rates, access to special events, peak season offers and other reasons that may alter the scale of cancellation fees. The applicable cancellation fees will be stated on your quote if they differ from the general cancellation
fee; the other conditions will remain the same.
• When more than one client is listed on the same booking form and one client decides to cancel his or her itinerary, the cancellation fee will be deducted from the amount received by Paris-Toujours for the group booking form regardless of who made the payment.

5. TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION FROM/TO PARIS AIRPORT OR TRAIN STATION

Regarding your travel and transportation to Paris airport or train station and to your place when you return home (flight, train, car service, accommodation…), we recommend you to organize flexible or refundable arrangements.

refund any additional cost incurred.

• Variations in transport costs particularly related to fuel costs
• Changes to levies and taxes relating to the services provided
If price changes are made due to above mentioned reasons, Paris-Toujours agrees to inform the client no later than 30 days before the arrival date. If one or more confirmed clients from the same booking form cancel their itinerary, the itinerary can still proceed when the group has paid, before their arrival,
the additional price of the services that had to be modified due to the cancellation by the client(s). Any refusal by clients to accept this adjustment will be considered as a cancellation and the scale ofcancellation fees (as mentioned in item 4 above) will apply.

7. UNUSED/MODIFIED SERVICES

Services modified by the client with our partners are subject to the terms and conditions of the local provider. Additional services or replacement services resulting in an additional cost must be paiddirectly to the local provider and are not in any way the responsibility of Paris-Toujours.

  • Lost or stolen tickets for museums, ground transportations, shows…

Delays originating from the reasons specified above, as well as possible itinerary changes as a result, will not warrant any compensation whatsoever, including due to a change in the length of the original program. Additional costs as a result of the disturbance (such as taxes, hotels, cars…) are to be paid by the client.
  • In the case of a cancellation due to an act of God, client safety concerns and/or by order of an administrative authority, Paris-Toujours reserves the right to change dates, times and routes if they consider that the client’s safety may be compromised.

In the event of Paris-Toujours being held liable by virtue of actions performed by service providers, the compensation limits provided for by the international conventions in accordance with article L 211-17-IV of the Tourism Code will apply.
