5.1 BOOKING

Booking requests must be written on a proper contract form, electronic if necessary, completely compiled and signed by the tourist, who will receive a copy of it. Acceptance of booking will be considered to be complete, with the consequent signing of the contract, only at the moment at which the organizer sends the relative confirmation (telematically, if necessary) to the customer via the travel agency.

The indications relative to the tour package which are not contained in the contract documents, brochures or other means of written communication, will be furnished by the organizer in complete fulfilment of the obligations which are indicated in art. 37, paragraph 2 of the Tourism Code, before
departure date.

The price of the package holiday is determined in the contract on the basis of the information provided in the catalogue or in the programme not included in the catalogue, and in any updates of these catalogues or programmes. The price may be changed up to 20 days before departure and only

  For such adjustments reference will be made to both the exchange rates and the above mentioned costs in force at the time of publication of the programme, as referred to in the technical data sheet in the catalogue, as well as to the date of any updates thereof. The variations will affect the forfeit price of the package holiday in the percentage expressively indicated in the technical data sheet of the catalogue or programme not included in the catalogue.
  

5.4 MODIFICATION OR CANCELLATION OF THE PACKAGE HOLIDAY BEFORE DEPARTURE

The organizer or intermediary, who needs to significantly change one or more elements of the contract before departure, must immediately advise the client in written form, indicating the type of modification and the consequent variation of the price.

In case of rejection of the proposed modification indicated in paragraph 1, the costumer may ultimately exercise the right of refund of the sum already paid, or he may take advantage of the offer of a substitute package as indicated in paragraphs 2 and 3 of article 10. The tourist may exercise the
rights indicated above even if the cancellation is due to failure to reach the minimum number of participants specified in the catalogue or a programme other than the catalogue, or due to force majeure and fortuitous events, relating to the purchased package.

Cancellations caused by other reasons than force majeure, fortuitous events or failure to reach the minimum number of participants, as well as those not due to the customer’s failure to accept the alternative package holiday offered, the organizer who cancels (art. 33, letter e, Italian Consumer
Code) must refund the tourist twice the amount paid by the same and collected by the organizer, through the travel agent. The amount to be refunded cannot be greater than twice the sum the tourist may owe according to article 10 paragraph 4, in case the tourist wants to cancel.

5.5 CANCELLATION BY THE TOURIST

The tourist may withdraw from the contract without paying penalties in the following cases:

• price increase as per the previous art. 8 of more than 10%;
• significant variation of one or more elements of the contract objectively definable as fundamental for the purpose of the package holiday, proposed by the organizer after the conclusion of the contract but before the departure and not accepted by the tourist.
  In the cases mentioned above, the tourist has the right either:
• to make use of an alternative package, without extra costs or with the refund of the surplus amount, if the second package has a lower value than the first; or to a refund of the partial amount already paid. This refund shall be made within seven working days from receipt of the request for reimbursement. The customer must communicate his decision (if he/she accepts the modification or withdraws from the contract) within and not later than two working days from the moment he receives the notification of increase or modification. If an express notification is not received within the above-mentioned period, the proposal formulated by the organizer will be considered accepted.
  In case the tourist withdraws from the contract before departure for other reasons than the ones listed in the first paragraph, or in the case provided by art. 7, paragraph 2, charges will apply regardless the payment of a deposit as per art. 7 paragraph 1 for the individual service fee, for the insurance coverage already requested at the time of conclusion of the contract or for other services already provided and for the penalty as follows:

• 10% from the time of the booking until 90 working days before departure (Saturday excluded)
• 25% from 89 to 60 working days before departure (Saturday excluded)
• 50% from 59 to 30 working days before departure (Saturday excluded)
• 75% from 29 to 9 working days before departure (Saturday excluded).

No refund is provided after these terms.
In the case of pre-established groups, such sums will be agreed from time to time upon signing the contract. Exceptions are sales/special offers (e.g. Vente Privee or similar) which cannot be changed or cancelled after booking and for which a penalty of 100% will be charged in the event of
cancellation.

5.6 MODIFICATION AFTER DEPARTURE

In case that, after departure, the organizer cannot supply, for any reason (apart from circumstances depending on the customer) an essential part of the services included in the contract, alternative solutions will have to be provided to the consumer without extra charges.

If the value of the suppliedservices is inferior to the value of the ones originally booked, the difference must be refunded by theorganizer. If there is no alternative solution, or the solution offered by the organizer is refused by the tourist for valid and justified reasons, the organizer shall provide without extra charge a means of transport equivalent to the original one for returning to the point of departure or another place agreed by the contracting parties, compatible with availability of the given means and seats. The customer will be refunded the difference between the price of the planned services and the price of those provided up to the moment of anticipated return.
