The General terms and conditions of e-flights™

The following General terms and conditions (GTC) regulate the contractual relationship between you as the booking party and e-flights as the agent and the service providers (operators). e-flights expressly points out to all booking parties, participants and travellers, that travel contracts are not concluded with e-flights but with the respective service provider mentioned, taking into account the General terms and conditions (GTC) of the respective service provider. Ask our service centre for details and the full terms and conditions. An agency order is concluded with e-flights. As a result, the following terms and conditions apply exclusively to our agency operations and do not impact the terms and conditions of the operators or airlines that provide the travel services. e-flights is under no obligation to check the information made available by the service providers and does not accept any liability by booking parties/participants/travellers for the correctness of the data made available by its potential contractual partners, insofar as e-flights does not transmit these data in a grossly negligent or incorrect manner or despite serious concerns regarding their correctness.

Subject-matter of the contract
A binding booking order is placed as soon as the booking party clicks the “Send booking” button in the mask. This is the legally binding placement of an order with e-flights, for carriage or another tourism-related service to be provided by a specific service provider. The provision of the booked service itself does not form part of our obligations as travel agent. The booking party is bound to this booking order for a period of 72 hours. e-flights will either accept the booking order within this period or contact the booking party. A binding confirmation in the form of an invoice from e-flights is, on principle, considered acceptance of the booking order. If payment is made by credit card, the charging of the credit card account of the booking party/participant/traveller, even with e.g. a deposit, is considered acceptance of the booking order. Procurement is considered to have been effected as soon as the travel documents have been sent to the customer. It is your obligation to immediately check the booking confirmation/invoice/travel documents received for correctness and to promptly advise e-flights of any errors or deviations, if applicable. Please note that we will not save the text of the contract. Together with our booking confirmation, which we will send by e-mail, you will be provided with an overview of the travel service you selected and its cost.

Liability of e-flights as agent
The scope of contractual services is comprised in the service specifications of the tour operator or other provider and in the information in the travel confirmation referring to these. e-flights is under no obligation to check the information of the tour operator or other provider and is not liable against a participant/traveller for the correctness or completeness of the information provided by their potential contractual partners. e-flights points out that the automatic confirmation of a booking, based on an accidental wrong input of data or on a software error, entitled e-flights to contest the contract that may have been concluded.

Service fee
e-flights charges a service fee for the procurement of the tour. This fee will not be refunded if the tour is cancelled, unless the cancellation is due to a fault by e-flights and/or its agents. The client is at liberty to prove that no or fewer costs were incurred.


» Go to top

 
Change and cancellation of booking
Changing a booked and confirmed tour is only possible by cancelling the booked tour and concurrently booking another tour, unless the service provider has special provisions for this. Any costs arising from a change of booking or partial tour fee payable, are based on the conditions of the respective service provider. The possibility to cancel a booking is based exclusively on the contracts of travel/carriage or general terms and conditions of the respective service provider and cannot be influenced by e-flights. Depending on the ticket tariff, time of cancellation and service provider it may happen that the respective service provider or airline will not effect a refund. Details and the complete conditions can be obtained from our service centre. A partial refund in respect of unused legs is generally excluded according to the terms and conditions of the airlines. e-flights will provide the booking party with information to the best of its knowledge, however, it will not accept liability for the correctness or completeness of information provided by the airlines. The date and time decisive for cancellation is the date and time the cancellation is received by e-flights during usual business hours. We recommend providing the cancellation in writing, in order to avoid disagreement. The cancellation can be sent by e-mail to » service@e-flights.de or by mail to e-flights, Zossener Str. 55, 10961 Berlin – please provide the booking number. Unless electronic airline tickets were established, it is imperative that the original airline tickets are sent to e-flights for the payment of a possible refund/partial refund. If the change of booking or cancellation is not due to e-flights fault, e-flights will charge a service fee for the processing of changes of bookings or cancellations. A fee of EUR 30.00 will be charged for a change of booking and a fee of EUR 50.00 per airline ticket for a cancellation. The client is at liberty to prove that no or fewer costs were incurred. If it can be proven that the cancellation is due to the poor performance of e-flights, e-flights will not charge a fee. e-flights recommends booking parties to conclude travel cancellation expenses insurance. Insofar as nothing to the contrary is stated in the individual itineraries or booking confirmations, the following conditions shall apply:

If the client selects payment by invoice, the travel documents will be sent to the client after receipt of payment. In the event of short-term bookings, the travel documents will be deposited at the airport or sent by courier service. Any costs pertaining to such courier service or deposit shall be borne by the client. Such costs will not be reimbursed on cancellation of the tour, unless the cancellation is due to a fault of e-flights and/or its agents. Lost tickets will be replaced in accordance with the current guidelines of the airline. The issue of replacement tickets will incur the fees current at the relevant point in time. The client is at liberty to prove that no or fewer costs were incurred.

Visa, passport, customs etc.
On principle, each participant/traveller is responsible for the fact that all conditions for travel and legal provisions, in particular national and international entry and exit provisions, health provisions, as well as passport and visa provisions are observed. The same applies to the procurement of the necessary travel documents. In the context of the legal duty of information, we are happy to respond to any questions you might have in this respect, however, we provide no guarantee that the information is correct. We expressly point out that the provisions can be changed by the authorities at any time. Participants are therefore advised to obtain information directly from the relevant authorities and offices. Any information on passport, visa, foreign exchange or health provisions applicable in the country of your destination, which is contained on this website (homepage/category customer service), is provided under the assumption that you are a German citizen. If this is not the case, please contact the relevant embassy or consulate.

Limitation of liability
The contractual relationship concluded with e-flights does not cover the provision of services to be supplied by the respective service provider. Solely the respective operator or service provider is liable for these. e-flights therefore accepts no liability for the services to be supplied by the respective service providers. e-flights can, however, be held liable by the participant with regard to the proper procurement in the context of the due diligence of an ordinary businessperson. With regard to the information on the individual tours, we rely on the information provided by the relevant operators. e-flights is unable to verify the correctness of all the information provided. Thus, e-flights cannot provide any guarantee or assurance that the information made available is correct, complete or up-to-date. The same applies to all other information contained on this website that was made available by third parties. e-flights attempts – within reasonable scope – to ensure that the information and other data available on this website, are up-to-date, complete and correct at the time of publication, in particular with regard to prices, limitations and dates. If, however, due to technical error, a booking containing incorrect data (prices, dates, flight class, etc) becomes effective, e-flights herewith expressly reserves the right to contest such an agency agreement in the context of the relevant legal regulations. Also, e-flights neither accepts liability in respect of the availability of the tour on the booking date nor for the provision of the tour booked. e-flights liability is exclusively restricted to intent or gross negligence, unless material contractual obligations are violated. In the event of slight negligence, e-flights liability is restricted to typical and foreseeable damage; it is also restricted to the maximum amount for the booked service from which the claim results. All claims for damages become time-barred within 12 months of their accrual. This does not apply to claims from tortuous acts. The above limitations of liability do not apply to claims from the Product Liability Act and other warranty liability. The same applies to deaths caused by e-flights or any physical injury or damage to health for which e-flights is responsible. Insofar as the liability of e-flights is excluded, this exclusion of liability shall also apply to the employees, legal representatives or agents of e-flights.

Force majeure
Force majeure, which impedes the fulfilment of e-flights obligations, either in full or in part, releases e-flights from fulfilment of the obligations until the force majeure event no longer applies.


» Go to top

 
Abusive use
Each booking party bears the risk in respect of the unauthorised use of its password. e-flights can only advise booking parties to keep the password and user name secret under all circumstances.


» Go to top

 
Data protection
The booking order is processed taking into consideration the relevant data protection provisions. e-flights undertakes to only use the data collected, processed and saved during registration and utilisation of e-flights services by the respective participant, for the processing of contracts concluded with the cooperation of e-flights and not to make the data available to any external third parties, insofar as there is no legal or official requirement to do so, e.g. to control abuse, in particular credit card abuse. The participant data collected during the registration process will be forwarded to the respective service providers and third parties insofar as this is necessary to process any agreements concluded. Your personal data, e.g. dates of birth and names of co-travellers may be requested as required, if they are necessary for booking purposes. This additional data are not saved after completion of the tour.

e-flights reserves the right to amend or revise the General terms and conditions pertaining to the use of this website at any time with future effect – this does not entail any obligation to inform users of such amendments or revisions.

Miscellaneous
If one of the above provisions proves ineffective or unenforceable, this shall not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions. e-flights herewith expressly points out that the procurement of travel services in accordance with section 312 b subsection 3 no. 6 of the BGB (German Civil Code) is not subject to the provisions of the Distance Selling Act. This applies, in particular, also to the sale of airline tickets, which means that clients cannot assert a right of withdrawal and return against e-flights. German law shall apply exclusively with regard to any disputes from or in connection with this agreement. The party logging in/traveller can, insofar as it is a general merchant, only sue e-flights at the head office of e-flights, in Aschaffenburg.
