These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of elitedhowcruise.com websites, mobile applications, and travel-related services (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms.
1) Who We Are
ElitedhowCruise (“we,” “us,” “our”) acts as a travel organizer and facilitator for Umrah packages and related travel services provided by independent third-party suppliers, including airlines, hotels, ground operators, transportation providers, and insurance companies. We do not own or control these suppliers and are not responsible for their acts, errors, or omissions, except as required by law.
2) Eligibility & Your Responsibilities
- You must be at least 18 years old and capable of entering a binding contract.
- You are responsible for providing accurate information (names exactly as on passports, contact details, travel dates, payment information).
- You must comply with all relevant entry requirements, health regulations, and local laws in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
- Review confirmations upon receipt and promptly notify us of any discrepancies.
3) Bookings, Pricing & Payments
- Confirmation: A booking is confirmed once elitedhowcruise.com or the supplier issues written confirmation and receives required deposits or payments.
- Pricing: Prices are in USD unless stated otherwise and may change before full payment due to currency fluctuations, taxes, surcharges, or supplier fees. Material increases will be communicated.
- Deposits & Payments: Payment deadlines are stated in your invoice/itinerary. Missed payments may lead to cancellations and additional fees.
- Payment Methods: We accept payment methods displayed at checkout. Third-party payment processors may handle transactions. Chargebacks without attempting good-faith resolution may be treated as cancellations by you.
- Special Requests & Accessibility: Requests will be forwarded to suppliers, but we cannot guarantee fulfillment. Notify us in writing for any accessibility or assistance needs as early as possible.
4) Changes, Cancellations & Refunds
- By You: All change or cancellation requests must be submitted in writing. Supplier policies dictate fees and refunds; our administrative fees may apply in addition.
- By Suppliers / Force Majeure: Suppliers or we may modify, re-route, or cancel itineraries due to operational needs, weather, strikes, political events, epidemics, or other unforeseen circumstances. Refunds follow supplier policies. Travel insurance is strongly recommended.
- Air Tickets: Airline tickets may be nonrefundable or subject to change/cancellation penalties per airline rules. No-shows usually forfeit the entire fare.
5) Travel Documents & Health
- You must carry valid passports, travel documents, and health/vaccination certificates. Entry is at the discretion of authorities.
- Some activities may involve inherent risks. Travelers are responsible for consulting healthcare providers and reviewing official advisories before departure.
6) Insurance
Comprehensive travel insurance (covering trip interruption, medical emergencies, evacuation, baggage, and supplier defaults) is strongly recommended. Declining insurance means you assume all financial risks.
7) Supplier Responsibility & Limitation of Liability
- Suppliers are independent entities and responsible for their services.
- To the fullest extent permitted by law, elitedhowcruise.com is not liable for supplier actions, personal injury, property damage, or losses arising from Force Majeure events.
- Our total liability will not exceed the amount paid to us for the relevant booking.
- We are not responsible for incidental, consequential, or punitive damages.
8) Code of Conduct
Travelers must behave respectfully toward staff, guides, and fellow travelers. Illegal or disruptive conduct may result in removal without refund.
9) Travel Advisories & Risks
You are responsible for reviewing official travel advisories and making informed decisions. Booking confirms your acknowledgment of inherent risks.
