We are all aware of the ongoing concern related to Coronavirus COVID-19, with the news cycles full of reports about the outbreak, and we wish to reassure our clients that we are here to provide you with help and support during this difficult time. If you have questions about your TransIndus holiday please call our office on 0208 566 3739 and a member of our team will assist you.
Our New Flexible Booking Conditions
At this time of great uncertainty, we understand many of our clients will wish to consider postponing or changing their holiday plans. Of course, we'd prefer that you to still travel to Asia, even if it is at a later date, so that you can experience these wonderful destinations and provide much needed economic support to our in-country partners, support staff, guides and drivers whose livelihoods depend on tourism. To assist with this we have introduced the following special booking conditions:
Anyone booked to travel up to the end of September 2020 May re-book for any date up to September 2021 at no extra cost (except when transferring to the Christmas, New Year and Easter peak periods).
If you’d prefer to change to an alternative TransIndus destination - for any departure date up to September 2021 - we will help you achieve this within your original budget, without any amendment fees (again, please note that moving to the Christmas, New Year and Easter dates may require a supplement charge).
Should you, on the other hand, decide you’d rather cancel your holiday, you are of course entitled to a full refund if you are scheduled to travel on or before 30 April this year. Normal cancellation rules apply for bookings scheduled to depart after that date.
