Terms and Conditions

Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully and ensure you understand before progressing with your booking.

Brilliant Travels will do all possible to provide the best of service, knowledge, and advice, to ensure a seamless travel experience. These terms and conditions apply to all bookings you make with Brilliant Travels, including bookings made in-store, over the phone, or by email. Brilliant Travels relies on the person making the booking to act on behalf of any other traveller on the booking and that person will bind all such travellers to these terms and conditions.

Brilliant Travels is a member of ATAS and an associate member of Helloworld Travel.

Brilliant Travels also acts as an agent on behalf of third-party suppliers, including transport providers, accommodation providers, airlines, cruise lines, rail operators and wholesalers. In this capacity, we arrange and coordinate your travel arrangements on your behalf through contracts arranged between yourself and reputable third-party suppliers. We recommend you read and understand the terms and conditions of each of the third-party suppliers we have arranged travel for you through. We can provide you with a copy upon request.

We confirm that all services, coupons, receipts, and tickets are reserved and issued, subject to the terms and conditions specified by our third-party suppliers (refer to their individual brochures and/or websites), as well as Brilliant Travels Terms and Conditions.

Brilliant Travels reserves the right to amend these terms and conditions (including travel credit terms and conditions) at any time without prior notice. Any variation will be displayed on our website www.brillianttravels.com.au under ‘Holiday Packages’ and you will be deemed to have accepted a variation if you have made a booking after it has been displayed.

You and your fellow travelling party, acknowledge that Brilliant Travels act as an agent on behalf of third-party suppliers, including transport providers, accommodation providers, airlines, cruise lines, rail operators and wholesalers. We do not provide or have control over, or liability for, the services provided by third parties. The third-party supplier is liable to you for a breach of obligations in providing you with the travel product purchased. Your legal rights in connection with the provision of travel services are against the third-party supplier and not against Brilliant Travels, and you acknowledge that services not provided will still incur fees and/or commission retention received. 

Brilliant Travels takes no responsibility for changes in services offered by third party suppliers. Travel products offered are subject to availability and can be withdrawn without notice by the provider. Travel products may also change at any time in accordance with the third-party suppliers’ terms and conditions. Brilliant Travels provide all information in good faith. To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither Brilliant Travels nor its directors, employees, any subsidiary or group company or representative shall be liable in contract, tort or otherwise for any inconvenience, delay, loss, death, injury, additional expense or damage to you or your belongings or otherwise related to your bookings and travel, including, without limitation, in relation to claims arising directly or indirectly by the acts, omissions or default, whether negligent or otherwise, of third-party suppliers, over whom we have no direct control.

You acknowledge that travel during COVID-19 presents complexity and risk, and hence to the maximum extent permitted by law, Brilliant Travels excludes all liability in respect of any event which is beyond our control (including illness or death, changes to travel arrangements, changes to restrictions and transit points, changes to border controls, quarantine requirements) including, but not limited to, any relation to epidemic or pandemic that impacts on your booking.

Travel advice and health requirements 

Brilliant Travels recommends that you contact the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade or visit their website at www.smarttraveller.gov.au for general travel advice, health requirements and safety alert levels relating to the country you wish to visit. Travel advice should be checked regularly as changes may occur without notice.

You are choosing to travel at a time where you may be exposed to Coronavirus. It is your responsibility to ensure you have read and understand all relevant travel information and mandates.

We recommend that you consult with your doctor or travel medical clinic prior to commencing your travel to ensure you are aware of any health requirements and recommended precautions relevant to the countries you are travelling to. It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the health and fitness requirements of your travel booking, and Brilliant Travels takes no responsibility should your health or fitness prevent your ability to fulfill your travel arrangements.

You as the traveller are responsible to ensure the advice, opinion, and information in relation to travel products purchased, are suitable to your travel needs and wishes. Should any product be deemed unsuitable, Brilliant Travels is not liable for any inconvenience, expense or loss incurred.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you carry all necessary vaccination documentation with you, as failure to present required vaccination documents (e.g., COVID-19 vaccination or proof of Yellow Fever vaccination) may result in your denied boarding onto an aircraft, train, ship, coach or other form of transport or travel provider, or entry to a foreign country or entry into Australia.

When making a booking you must advise your Travel Consultant of any medical, dietary or mobility conditions you may have. Please also advise us if you are pregnant. Medical requests are subject to the travel providers discretion, subject to their ability to fulfill the request, including external factors. Note, requests cannot be guaranteed and are beyond the control of Brilliant Travels.

Passports & Visas 

A valid passport with a minimum of 6 months validity from return date is mandatory for all international travellers.

When making an international booking, please provide a copy of your passport. You must advise immediately should you not have a valid Australian passport. It is the responsibility of the traveller to ensure that passports, visas, re-entry visas and permits meet the requirements of immigration and all relevant government authorities. Any fines, penalties, loss of travel or related expenses will be the sole responsibility of the traveller.

Brilliant Travels can provide general information regarding passport and visa requirements including transit visa requirements, but it is your responsibility to ensure you comply with all regulations before travelling.

Brilliant Travels does not assist or arrange any specific visa or entry requirements, including entry requirements relating to COVID-19. It is the responsibility of the traveller to arrange these.

Travel Insurance 

Travel Insurance is strongly recommended for both domestic and international travel, as recommended by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.

Brilliant Travels can provide a quote on a recommended travel insurance policy. It is the responsibility of the traveller to ensure all information provided is correct and in full, including any pre-existing medical conditions, to ensure correct and adequate coverage if a policy is to be taken out. Travel insurance provides cover from the time the premium is paid, and the policy issued, and it is recommended a policy is taken out as soon as a deposit is paid.

Price and booking terms 

All prices are quoted in AUD and are inclusive of GST unless otherwise advised. Prices quoted or booked in person, over the phone or via email are subject to availability at the time of booking and can be withdrawn or varied without notice. Reasons for price variations may include factors outside of our control such as adverse currency fluctuations, fuel surcharges, airfare, and tax variations. The price is only confirmed once your booking has been paid for in full by you by the advised payment due date. Please contact your Travel Consultant for confirmation of the price at the time you are paying in full for your travel. Port, service, and government taxes are subject to change up until time of departure. There may also be a local tax charged at some airports upon departure and at some hotels dependent on countries visited.

Payments can be made via cash direct to our office, bank transfer (please contact our office for bank details) or via credit card, which will attract a surcharge of 1%.

Due to the nature of the travel industry and dynamic pricing, prices in some cases may reduce after the time of deposit payment. Brilliant Travels has no control or advance notice when this occurs. Please be aware that at the time you confirm your reservation and by paying your deposit you are also confirming and agreeing to the price and inclusions available at the time of reservation. Credit card fees apply for all bookings. Electronic Payments are accepted however take at least 2-3 working days to clear. Should a payment be provided without the relevant clearance period, penalties may apply. Additional airline charges: some third-party suppliers may also charge additional fees for checked baggage, in-flight food, drinks, and seat reservations. Full details can be provided at the time you make your reservation.

Reservation Deposit 

A Brilliant Travels Deposit is payable at the time of booking and is in addition to any deposits charged by the tour operator/airline or other third-party supplier. All deposits are non-refundable for change of mind or cancellations by you. If you have purchased Travel Insurance this may cover cancellation fees but will be subject to the relevant policy of insurance.

Service Fees 

A Brilliant Travels service fee of $25.00 per person each way for domestic and $50.00 per person each way for international, will be added to all flight bookings.

We may receive commissions, fees, gifts, or financial incentives from third party suppliers in relation to your booking. All fees, commissions and financial incentives are non-refundable, even if the travel product is not used.

Special Requests 

Please ensure you have entered your frequent flyer, hotel and/or cruise line membership details on the Brilliant Travels booking form for inclusion in your booking. We cannot guarantee that the supplier/airline will credit your account with membership points or benefits. Please check your frequent flyer program or other loyalty program for terms and conditions.

Special requests such as airline seating, meals, non-smoking rooms, bedding configuration, specific room requests in hotels and cruise cabin location, are at the discretion of the third-party supplier or operator. Whilst Brilliant Travels will do its utmost to notify the third-party suppliers or operators of your special needs, there is no guarantee these will be accommodated.

Cancellation and change fees 

Your rights to amend or cancel your travel booking and the cost of doing so will be determined by third-party supplier terms and conditions, as well as these Brilliant Travels terms and conditions. In addition to any fees and penalties charged by Third Parties (airlines, wholesalers, cruise lines, rail providers, coach companies and suppliers), a Brilliant Travels cancellation fee will apply. If you cancel before full payment, a Brilliant Travels cancellation fee equal to your deposit will be charged. After final payment, a Brilliant Travels cancellation fee of the initial deposit amount, plus 20% of the total per person booking amount or $400.00 per person, whichever is greater, will apply.

Amendments to your booking after a deposit has been received, will incur a fee of $100.00 per person, per amendment, plus any additional fees and penalties charges imposed by Third Parties (the relevant airline, wholesaler and supplier etc).

Fees may result in a 100% loss of your booking cost. Many third-party suppliers treat name changes and route and/or itinerary alterations as a full cancellation and these can incur full cancellation charges.

Any refunds due will be provided after the funds are received by us from the third-party supplier/s. In the event of a cancellation of your booking by a third-party supplier, Brilliant Travels will not process the refund unless and until we receive the refund from the relevant third-party supplier/s. Note that refunds can take up to 12 weeks or longer to process, and whilst we will assist in this process, Brilliant Travels does not take any responsibility for the length of time taken by the third-party suppliers.

Travel cancellations and changes due to government regulations and the impact of, but not limited to, COVID-19 or other impacts outside of your and Brilliant Travels control, may impact your rights under the consumer guarantee provisions of the Australian Consumer Law. In some cases, a third-party supplier may offer a credit note or a voucher in place of a refund, which should have an expiration date which is long enough to allow you to use the credit note or voucher. If a supplier has offered a credit, then Brilliant Travels will continue to act as the booking agent.

Should your travel plans be cancelled or postponed outside of your or our control, refunds and/or credits/vouchers will be determined by the third-party supplier/s as per their terms and conditions.

Brilliant Travels reserves the right to cancel your booking in the event we have reasonable grounds to believe it is fraudulent.

No Show 

If you have a booking for a Travel Service (including flights, accommodation, cruise line, rail travel, car hire, coach, or any other service) but you do not show up to check-in or otherwise do not avail yourself of such Travel Service, you will not be entitled to any refund from Brilliant Travels.

Force Majeure 

Brilliant Travels will not be liable for any failure, delay, or event in performing our obligations under these terms and conditions which are beyond our control. Such causes may include but are not limited to: acts of God, accident, government travel restrictions, epidemic, quarantine, pandemic, outbreaks of infectious disease or public health concerns of any nature, actual or threatened war, riots, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, strikes, explosion, generalised lack of raw materials or energy, breakdown of communication facilities, natural and/or nuclear disasters, natural catastrophes, adverse weather conditions, fire, government acts or omissions, or the change in law or administration of any law in Australia or any jurisdiction or territory relevant to the booking contract.

If force majeure applies, the customer will be bound by the third-party suppliers and Brilliant Travels terms and conditions. We will facilitate any refund or credit due. Any booking fees, credit card fees or commissions received are non-refundable in the circumstance that a force majeure event occurs.

Insolvency 

Brilliant Travels is not liable for any inconvenience, delay, loss, death, injury, or damage, financial or otherwise, to you or your belongings as a result of any third-party supplier/s or operator becoming bankrupt, insolvent or ceasing to provide services.

Privacy 

Brilliant Travels is committed to protecting your personal information and agrees to handle your information in line with our legal obligations and privacy policy. The personal information collected at the time of your booking and/or on your booking form is required to ensure accuracy of reservations made on your behalf and for other purposes as set out in our Privacy Collection Statement including providing relevant information to third-party suppliers such as airlines, hotels, tour companies, rail providers, etc. as required for your booking.
