5 - CANCELLATION

a - Force majeure: If adverse weather conditions, roadblocks, strikes, terrorism, war, the possibility of war, unpredictable technical issues prevent the tour from starting or continuing, it shall be deemed as force majeure by both parties. The illness or death of the traveler or their first-degree relatives, which prevents their usual activities for 10 days, is also considered as force majeure.

b - The travel agency may partially or fully cancel the tours it has announced or registered for if it deems necessary until 2 days before the start of the tour. Within the same period, it may change the names of the hotels included in the tour, the departure locations of the transportation vehicles, and the visiting order of the places specified in the program as places to be visited. If the consumer does not accept these changes and cancellations, they have the right to cancel their reservation and receive a full refund of the amount paid. In this case, the consumer does not have the right to claim compensation.

6- GENERAL PROVISIONS

a- The consumer participating in the tour has the right to carry and bring back 2 suitcases, not exceeding 50cm x 70cm in size, on all kinds of tours, and 20 kg of baggage on air travel. The owners are responsible for all kinds of suitcases and their contents.

b- Items that have a stinking, flowing, flammable, explosive, or disturbing effect on the environment, cutting, piercing, and firing weapons, and all kinds of animals are not allowed to be taken to vehicles and accommodation facilities without the explicit and written permission of the travel agency. The situation does not change if they have an identity or permit.

c- In case of loss or damage of luggage or goods belonging to the consumer, if it arises from the GROSS NEGLIGENCE of the Travel Agency personnel, regardless of the value, characteristics, and properties of the lost or damaged luggage or goods and the contents in it, 1/2 of the transportation part within the total cost of the tour will be paid to the consumer, who is the owner of the luggage and goods, by the Travel Agency as material and moral compensation. The Travel Agency is responsible for any kind of loss, damage, and theft of the goods delivered in writing to it by the consumer along with their values, up to the transportation cost of the tour.

d- Visa passport procedures are the responsibility of the consumer. If it is requested to follow visa procedures from Fox Tatil, it is necessary to have a passport that is valid for at least 6 months and to deliver all the necessary documents to Fox Tatil, with the visa and service fee paid, at least 16 days before the departure date of the tour. Visa procedures can be followed by Fox Tatil for a fee. Since visa procedures are completely at the discretion of the consulates, Fox Tatil is not responsible for not obtaining a visa. Fox Tatil has no responsibility for those who are not accepted into the country as obtaining a visa does not guarantee entry to that country. Therefore, no refund or compensation will be paid.

e- The travel agency is responsible for the changes that occur after the start of the tour in the tour program purchased by the consumer. The Travel Agency can compensate the consumer for obvious changes that are against the consumer and have caused damage, in the form of price or service refund, in accordance with the TÜRSAB KÜTAHYA SCHEDULE during or after the trip. At the same time, it can compensate through additional services provided during the trip that are not included in the price. The use or consumption of additional or substitute services by the consumer cancels their right to a refund and compensation.

f- Using the tour program purchased by the consumer until the end despite complaining about it cancels the consumer's compensation rights such as substitute services and price refunds related to the complained issues.

g- The terms and conditions of this contract, which were agreed upon during registration between the travel agency and the consumer, have been read by the consumer and signed by them, accepting and requesting the registration of other individuals who they have informed will also be joining the same trip under the same conditions.

h - Consumers who participate in the trip but do not have a signature on the contract, and those who have entrusted other consumers to register on their behalf, have the right to recourse for any excess amount paid by the travel agency to the consumers who signed the contract in case the travel agency is required to pay any compensation or fee related to the trip. These consumers have also agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions of this contract, even if they have not signed it, due to learning about them through catalogs and announcements related to the trip.

j - The travel agency acts as an intermediary between the consumers who participate in the trip and third-party individuals and legal entities such as hotels, transportation companies, and other service providers related to the trip. Therefore, consumers who have registered with the travel agency are aware that the agency is not directly responsible for any problems that may arise from factors such as the delay or malfunctioning of transportation, changes in the route, bad weather conditions, roadblocks, strikes, terrorism, war, or unforeseeable technical issues, or from accidents that cause material or moral damages or shortcomings or errors in the services provided by the accommodation facilities. The parties acknowledge that the travel agency has no primary responsibility as an operator and is not directly and fully liable for such problems, as the responsibility falls mainly on the actual perpetrators of the problems. The travel agency will only be responsible to the extent of what cannot be collected from the actual perpetrators, and the consumers may seek compensation from the travel agency only after they have tried to get compensation from the actual perpetrators first.

k - In matters not specified in this contract, the provisions of the 1618 CC, 4077 CC, 4288 CC, 2634 CC, IATA, IHA, UFTAA Conventions, Civil Aviation Law, Turkish Code of Obligations, Turkish Commercial Code, International Agreements to which Turkey is a party and the Regulations, Directives, Circulars issued in connection therewith, and the provisions of the internationally accepted Frankfurter Tabelle applied in Turkey within the framework of the TÜRSAB Kütahya Schedule will be applied.
