Last Updated: 24/JUNE/2024


1.1 Your travel arrangements have been organized by Hyundai Travel, operating under ABN 84 154 713 372, referred to as "Hyundai Travel," "us," or "we." 

These arrangements are governed by the following terms and conditions.

1.2 Your travel voucher(s) or ticket(s) will be sent to you via email separately upon confirmation of your booking(s) by our suppliers.

This typically occurs within 24-48 hours.

1.3 The issued ticket(s) ("vouchers") have been booked on your behalf by Hyundai Travel with various Service Providers.

Each Service Provider may impose their own terms and conditions that apply to your travel. It is essential that you carefully review the relevant product page 

associated with each booking to fully understand all applicable terms and conditions. For further clarification beyond what is provided on the product page, 

we recommend contacting the respective Service Provider directly.

1.4 We reserve the right to modify these terms and conditions periodically. The updated terms and conditions will be published on our website, 

indicating the date of the revision.


GENERAL CONDITIONS

2.1 Prices and inclusions are subject to change without prior notice.

2.2 Travel insurance is not included in the cost of any product, and we strongly recommend that you purchase your own.

2.3 All implied terms or warranties, whether statutory or otherwise, are excluded in relation to the services provided by us under these Terms and Conditions. 

The Australian Consumer Law provides consumers with a number of protections and Consumer Guarantees which cannot be excluded or limited ("Consumer Guarantees"). These terms and conditions are subject to those Consumer Guarantees.

In the event of a minor service failure, we may, at our discretion, provide the services again or offer you a refund. 


For a major service failure, you have the option to:

  • Cancel the services and receive a refund,

  • Request a replacement service, or

  • Seek compensation for the difference in value between the service provided and the service purchased.



Additionally, you are entitled to compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage arising from a major service failure. Our own refund policy applies.

The Consumer Guarantees referred to do not apply to, and we do not accept liability for, service failures relating to the transport of goods for the purposes 

of a consumer’s business, trade, profession, or occupation. Where our services are not acquired for personal, domestic, or household purposes, 

our liability for failure to comply with the Consumer Guarantees is limited to supplying the services again or paying the costs of having the services supplied again.


BOOKING CONFIRMATIONS

Your Responsibilities:

3.1 For open-dated tickets: You must schedule your travel dates in advance with the individual Service Provider as specified on your ticket/voucher. 

We recommend booking at least 14 days prior.

3.2 For tickets with booked dates: It is your responsibility to use your tickets on the dates booked. If you wish to change these dates, you must arrange it directly 

with the Service Provider with sufficient notice.

3.3 You must confirm all booked dates 48 hours prior to your travel or as specified on your ticket/voucher. If applicable, dietary requirements should also be confirmed 

at this time. It is your responsibility to verify your travel arrangements, and we recommend contacting the tour company to reconfirm them before your travel date.

3.4 Your booking will only be processed once you have provided all required details. You will have the opportunity to complete these details after making your payment.


CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS

4.1 Credit card fees and fees paid to us are non-transferable and non-refundable.

4.2 If you cancel your travel, you are liable to pay us a Cancellation Fee of 25% of the value of the cancelled travel booking. 

Additionally, if the Service Provider charges us for the cancelled travel, you must reimburse us for those charges.

4.3 Cancellations due to personal reasons may result in non-refundable fees, especially for tour products confirmed based on the number of participants. 

We advise careful consideration of your travel plans before booking.

4.4 Cancellation fees can be up to 100% of the booking cost, regardless of whether travel has commenced, such as for cancellations made within 24 hours of travel 

or specific booking conditions.

4.5 The Cancellation Fee applies in all cases where a tour proceeds despite your absence due to reasons like "acts of God" (e.g., road closures due to flooding, Hurricane ETC).

4.6 If a tour or other travel service is cancelled by the Service Provider, we will attempt to rebook you without charge first. If rebooking is not feasible, 

we will refund you the tour or travel service amount paid, less a 10% administration fee ("Admin Fee").

4.7 [Skydiving] In case of cancellation due to weather conditions, rescheduling of dates is standard. If you are unable to reschedule due to personal reasons, 

a refund will be issued after deducting a $10 processing fee from the amount paid to us.

4.8 Refunds, minus the Admin Fee, depend on receiving a fully refundable amount from the cancelling supplier.

4.9 [Theme Parks] Tickets issued by Hyundai Travel are valid only on specified dates and are non-cancellable and non-refundable. 

Rescheduling of theme park and restaurant tickets is not permitted. Entry requires presentation of printed tickets; entry will be denied without them. 

Before entry, verify entry times and holiday opening hours with the venue.

4.10 Each supplier has different cancellation policies, handled case by case. Note that in cases of Natural Disasters (e.g., flood, fire, cyclone), 

many providers do not offer refunds, so we cannot refund you. We strongly recommend Travel Insurance to cover such situations.

4.11 The 10% Admin Fee does not apply to Dive Courses where a Dive Medical test is failed, or to Skydives cancelled by the Service Provider within 3 days of booking

due to weather, which qualify for a full refund.

4.12 Participation in Skydiving and Scuba Diving requires completion of a thorough medical checklist, which must be submitted to the tour operator.

4.13 By agreeing to these terms and conditions and acquiring a cancellation insurance policy, you can reduce the risk of incurring various fees and 

unexpected costs due to unforeseen circumstances and changes. Depending on the policy purchased, you may be able to claim up to 100% 

of the associated costs and fees through the insurance provider.

4.14 Tickets for theme parks, attractions, shows, coupons, and gift vouchers are non-refundable in all circumstances.

4.15 Any bookings commencing during a “special event period” are non-refundable in all circumstances. This includes, but is not limited to, 

trade fairs, public or national holidays, school holidays, New Year's, Christmas, Easter, and other designated periods.
