The customer will be informed as soon as TripX receives such information from any supplier. 

Re-scheduling terms 

Package trips booked and purchased by TripX are not rebookable, unless the product “Flexible Rebooking” has been purchased.

Cancellation terms 

Package travel booked and purchased from TripX, can be canceled for a fee in accordance with the Package Travel Act. To minimize the fee, it is recommended that a cancellation protection is purchased. For information, see “Cancellation protection” below.

Note that 4-hour or 24-hour or other time-based right of withdrawal does not apply to package travel. For more information, see the section “Right of withdrawal” below.

If cancellation protection is purchased in connection with booking a trip and obstacles have occurred in accordance with the cancellation protection rules, cancellation of all or parts of the travel components must always take place immediately after obstacles have arisen.

The trip must always be canceled before departure in order for any refund to be allowed. Only the buyer / main traveler can cancel a booked trip. When canceling travel outside TripX’ opening hours – always contact the airline and / or the hotel directly. Then notify TripX of the measures taken.

Cancellation Protection 

In order to make it possible to cancel your travel in relation to sickness or a serious provable hindrance, we recommend you to purchase a separate cancellation insurance. Read more under the tab Cancellation Terms. Details about the cancellation protection are found here: https://www.tripx.eu/cancellation-protection 

Children travelling alone 

We cannot handle bookings where children travel alone, so we must direct you straight to the airlines, that, due to their presence during the whole flight, can guarantee secure care of your child. 

Requests 

Your requests are considered enquiries and cannot be guaranteed. Room distribution is cared for by the hotel, any specific model or rental car equipment will be handled by the rental car company. At TripX website you have the possibility to state your requests, but we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. A bed or cot for children under the age of 2 is not included. Inform the hotel upon arrival if you need extra accessories. Any cost for extra accessories will be paid for by the customer at the destination. 

Passport, visa and vaccinations 

You are, as a traveler, responsible for holding a valid passport, visa, visa for stopover, necessary vaccinations and all other documents needed for the country that you are visiting during your trip. 

Many countries demand that the passport must be valid for a certain amount of time after the departure date. It is the responsibility of the traveler to ensure that the passport has a validity in accordance to the rules of the destination. 

Most countries outside of the EU demands a return ticket and/or a ticket for further travel from the country. If you cannot show this there is risk that you will be rejected at the airport or at arrival in the country. If you are not an EU citizen this might be the case in the EU as well. In those cases you have no right to a rebooking or a refund. 

Preparations before the travel and potential rules and restriction to/from and at the destination

The customer is responsible to investigate and follow the local rules and restrictions that apply for the country and destination the customer / traveler is about to visit.

The customer is also responsible to investigate any potential local rules and restrictions that apply in case of transit or stopover in a country other than the destination, and/or if the travel departs from or returns to a country other than the traveler’s homeland.

Necessary preparations, information gathering and actions required

  • before the departure (e.g. entry rules, online registrations, visa, tests, vaccinations and health declarations),
  • during the travel (e.g. rules that may apply on planes and at airports),
  • at the destination (e.g. requirements regarding face masks, social distancing, quarantines and/or tests), and
  • before leaving the destination / returning home (e.g. exit rules, tests, health declarations, potential quarantine upon return to the homeland)

is the sole responsibility of the customer / traveler.

Timetable changes 

It is always the customer’s responsibility to check any changes in the timetable directly with the booked airline. TripX is not responsible for emails that for some reason do not reach their intended receiver (for example due to spam filters). In those cases where the airlines accept cancellations due to changes in timetable the full amount will be refunded. You must no later than 24 hours before departure check with the airport that no late changes in the timetable has been made. 

The implementation of the flight 

TripX is only the mediator of plane tickets and will therefore accept no responsibility for any events associated with the implementation of the flight. Such as lost baggage, luggage fees not part of the price of air travel, cancelled flights and changes in the timetable. This responsibility lies with the airline and you should therefore direct any complains straight to the airline. Lost or damaged luggage must be reported at the airport to the responsible flight/handling company. This must be done in connection to the event. In the case of any delays, you as a passenger has the right to extensive compensation from the airline. Make your demands regarding this compensation in situ and in connection to the delay. Link to EU rules . It is often hard and time consuming to get this compensation after the event. 

A started trip can never be changed through us and we do not provide “travel only” or one-way tickets. 

Please note that flight times are stated in local time. 

Do not forget to check your departure time for both the in and outbound travel 24 hours before departure. Please consult your airline’s website. 

Many airlines charge for luggage and other services associated by the flight. Carefully check with the airline’s terms and conditions. It is often more expensive to pay for example luggage at the airport compared to booking this service in advance, either on TripX website in connections with the booking, or directly with the airline before departure. 

Occasionally the airlines cooperate. This might mean that you book with one airline, but the flight is provided by another airline. This is relatively common and is called codeshare. 

In exceptional cases the airlines will change the route, which might cause a layover not planned beforehand. 

Some airlines include both food and beverages in the ticket price. Other airlines charge for food and/or beverages during your flight. For more information regarding the degree of service, please consult the airline website. 

If a name change is allowed, there will always be a cost related to this fully administrated by the airline on top of our administrative charge. 

If you have booked additional products such as a rental car through TripX you must always contact the supplier and notify them regarding any changes in time of arrival. 

If you have booked any additional products outside of TripX, you should contact your supplier and notify them about the changes of the arrival time. TripX accepts no responsibility for any costs related to externally booked travel arrangements. 

For information regarding luggage rules we direct you to the respective airlines rules and regulation found on the airline website. Rules vary a lot between airlines. 

Hotel 

TripX is only the mediator of the hotel service. In a case where the delivered service is not in accordance with what has been booked the hotel must immediately be notified of the error. If no correction is made, the traveler should demand damages/compensation in situ from the supplier. If this is not possible the traveler should demand a certificate in writing from the supplier, stating what demands has not been met and why. TripX has no possibility to correct an error after you have returned home. TripX must be contacted immediately unless the shortcoming is fixed or reasonably compensated by the hotel. Note that if you have booked a double room for only 1 person, then the hotel has the right to optimize its occupancy and relocate you to a so-called “Twin / double for single use”, which can be a slightly smaller room with a single bed.

Rental cars

Complaints 

If there is an error regarding any travel components, which can give reason for complaint during the vacation trip, the supplier (airline, rental company, hotel etc) must immediately be notified to this and be given the opportunity to correct the error. If a complaint during the trip is directed straight to the supplier, you should always ask for a written confirmation. This is of utter importance if you, after returning home, intend to demand compensation from the supplier. If you get any compensation straight from the supplier during the trip and/or if TripX has not been contacted when the shortcoming occurs, the right to compensation often becomes void. Any complaints where the traveler does not manage to reach an agreement with the suppliers can be sent to TripX for investigation. The complaint must contain: booking reference, departure date, a solid description of the issue at hand and preferably a written statement from the supplier regarding the issue and the cause of it.

Important information 

Allergies 

We travel to a lot of different countries where the knowledge about special diets and allergies might vary, but in general it is less than back at home. Unfortunately, we cannot influence the food preparation methods or the food offerings at the hotels – so special foods can never be guaranteed. 

If you have an airborne allergy, such as peanut allergy, you need to contact the airline before departure. The airlines can never guarantee a completely peanut-free flight. 

Arrival 

Every hotel gives a time for check in (this might change in short notice). On the normal occasion the rooms are not accessible before the given time for check in on the day of arrival, but this differs a lot from hotel to hotel. 

Some hotels will demand a deposit when checking in, which is repaid when you leave. It might take some time to get a deposit back that was paid by credit card – this is outside of our control. Some hotels charge an extra fee/deposit for such things as a remote control to the TV or air conditioning unit. 

Please note that some hotels demand that the main customer must be 18 years old at the time of checking in. 

Departure 

According to the international hotel standards you are in possession of your hotel room until time for check out – the check out time is given at each hotel (this can be changed on short notice). The given time is valid even if your departing flight is late in the evening/night. If you have a late flight it might be possible to negotiate a later check out/rent a day room – please contact the hotel reception regarding this issue. The cost will be paid directly to the hotel. 

It is quite common for hotels to offer a luggage room and access to a shower even after check out – contact the hotel reception for information. 

If your passport has been left at the reception – please remember that it is your responsibility to collect it in good time before your departure. 

Connections 

If you need to book a hotel night or other connecting transport other than what is in your booking you should always book with the option of change/cancellation, in order to avoid any change/cancellation fees as your flight times might change, or a flight might be cancelled. You should make sure that it is at least three hours between the connection and the flight booked. 

Distances 

Many hotels consist of several buildings, which might mean that you stay a long distance from the hotel reception, restaurant etcetera. The distances/times given is for the closest beach/local centrum and is given from the hotel’s property borders. 

Luggage 

We recommend you to pack any necessary medication and valuables in your on board carry on. 

If any checked in luggage is damaged or disappears you must report this directly after landing. Please note that a special report, P.I.R. (Property Irregularity Report) must be written already at the airport for the airline to have the possibility of handling any claims. If the damage is not detected at the airport, a few airlines accept damage reports within 7 days of the incident, in these cases you make your report directly to the airline. 

Pictures 

When photographing a hotel an angled lens is sometimes used. These might make hotels, pools and rooms appear larger than they are. The apartment/hotel room you are given might have a different view than the one shown at the respective hotel. An interior picture might also show a certain type of, or size of, the hotel’s many apartments/rooms. This means that the room which you have booked might look different and be positioned differently. 

Noise 

In both small and large travel destinations the everyday life continues even during tourist season. Garbage disposal, deliveries etcetera will occur during all hours of the day. Local traffic might also be more intense during certain times – in some countries this slows down during the siesta (early afternoon). 

Restaurants, bars and clubs are open until midnight, often longer – so you might experience noise and music from the nightlife. Loud music, traffic noises and other noises outside of the hotel is regulated by the local authorities and therefore totally out of our or the hotels control. 

In some hotels all noises can be heard quite easily so it is important that everyone tries to be respectful during their stay. According to international practise it should be quiet in a hotel after 24.00. If you are bothered by other guests, contact the hotel reception. 

Fitness 

In the hotels where there is a gym the equipment is often limited and the standard simple. There might be a fee for using the hotel gym. The hotel tennis, pool and miniature golf courts might be associated with a fee and of a variety of standards. 

Flora & fauna 

We recommend bathing shoes, especially in Egypt, Croatia and Greece where there are corals and possibly cobble stone beaches. 

Smaller animals are often a part of your visit abroad. In warmer climate flies and mosquitoes are common, it is recommended to bring a mosquito repellent or to buy it in a local pharmacy at the destination. 

If you are having issues with cockroaches or ants in your hotel you should always contact the reception, as the staff can help with bug spray if needed. Unfortunately, free roaming animals might occur in the destination which is completely out of our control. 

Hotels in the presence of rural buildings might be a reality – this means that you might have to live next door to roosters and other animals with all that it means. 

Hotel classification 

Every hotel and vacation complex are officially classified by each country’s tourist authority. According to international standards, hotels and vacation complexes are assessed by the respective tourist authority. The assessment only rates standards and facilities – the location is, for example, not assessed. Each hotel is rated according to the official classification. This means that the difference between 4 and 5 stars might be minimal. 

As we cooperate with a lot of different suppliers, our partners name their rooms according to what they see fit. This means that what is classified as a Superior Room on the hotel’s own webpage might be named as a Premium Room with supplier A and a Deluxe Room with supplier B. 

Weekends and national holidays 

Regarding local weekends and holidays (including religious events such as for example Ramadan) we direct you to the respective country’s tourist information or embassy. Other countries’ traditions might be nice to participate in, but it might also mean that the mobility, opening hours and other things are affected during your stay, a fact that is complete out of our control. 

High and low seasons 

During the high season the place will be bustling, restaurants and bars will be open – everything is busy. This might bring crowds, lots of waiting and full beaches. During the low season you could often expect a better service, no queues and plenty of space on the beach. On the other hand, some hotels, restaurants etcetera are closed during the low season and the destination might feel “closed”. In the beginning and in the end of the season activities/facilities at the hotels/destination might be limited or for a fee. 

Internet 

If a hotel has an internet connection it might be good to know that it is not necessarily as quick and stable as at home. Many hotels won´t allow you to connect to a VPN or similar as their connections are closed for this type of traffic. Internet not working is not grounds for compensation as it is completely out of our control. 

Left behind 

If you accidentally leave personal belongings on a flight, a transfer or a hotel you should turn directly to our partner/supplier for assistance. We take no responsibility for property left behind and cannot help you search for it. 

Air conditioning 

If the hotel is equipped with air conditioning this is specified in the hotel description and might mean that it is only present in the common areas of the hotel. Air conditioning might be limited to certain hours of the day or to the warmest period of time. In most hotels the air conditioning will only be usable when you occupy the apartment/room and in most cases, there is one air conditioning unit per apartment/room, normally in one of the bedrooms. There are a huge number of different systems/models of air conditioners and the capacity and noise will differ. 

In some hotels air conditioning is an extra and payment will then be made directly to the hotel. 

Meals 

Breakfast, half board, whole board and All Inclusive are possible add ons in many hotels, unless it is included in the price when it will be shown on your booking confirmation. If the arrival or departure to/from the hotel is early morning or late at night it is not always possible to use one or a few meals if you have ordered breakfast, half – or whole board or All Inclusive. Please note that no meals will be included before or after check in/out. 

If you book a half/whole board or All Inclusive there will in most cases be a buffet or special menu that is included – this might differ depending on season and occupancy. 

If there is an à la carte-restaurant, reservations will always be made by talking to the hotel staff, and any reservation fees will be paid directly to the hotel. 

Newly built hotels 

We know by experience that everything does not always go according to plan when opening a new hotel. A totally brand new hotel will always suffer from “baby diseases” such as minor operational disturbances or that routines are not being completely in place. 

Passports and visas 

For travels to a lot countries you must have a passport, which is valid until at least six months after your return trip, please note that provisional passports won´t be accepted at all destinations. Children, regardless of age, must carry their own passport. 

Travelers should examine what rules apply by contacting the embassy or consulate of the destination. It is your own responsibility as a traveler to ensure that you have all necessary travel documentation such as a valid passport and a visa when needed. 

Pool 

If the hotel has a heated pool this will be specified in the hotel description. A heated pool will, on most occasions, mean a water temperature at approx. 20-24 degrees Celsius, unless otherwise specified. A heated pool may drop one or a few degrees in the morning/evening and if there is a bad weather. If a hotel has several pools, there will normally only be one that is heated. For reasons of space there are rarely sunbeds for all people staying at the hotel and it is normally not permitted to mark/reserve the sunbeds. At many hotels you are not allowed to bring food and beverages from the pool to your room/apartment. 

Travel Insurance 

It is important to be fully covered by an insurance. Always check what kind of insurance you have and what travel protection is included. If you have home insurance, you should check if it includes a travel protection outside the Nordics. Please note that the EU medical card only covers health care connected to the public health system in the country that you visit. You will find which countries the card is valid in on the Försäkringskassans website. 

Smoke free hotels 

Hotels with a non-smoking policy is getting more and more common. Some hotels will only allow smoking in designated areas, but most common is that smoking is allowed on your balcony/terrace. A smoking ban will also apply to e-cigarettes. It is often forbidden to smoke indoors, both in the room/apartment and in the hotel’s common facilities such as the reception, pool area and any restaurants. We ask you to be respectful and follow the hotel’s rules. 

Beaches 

Please note that there might be under water currents or tidal differences – respect any warning flags on the beach. Sea urchins, jellyfish and seaweed, among other things, will occasionally be seen on many beaches. 

Cleaning 

Cleaning a hotel room or apartment means cleaning of the floors, the bathroom, wiping the tables, emptying the waste baskets and make the beds. In other words, a simpler cleaning, which could happen both in the morning and in the afternoon. In some cases (not often) an extra fee will be charged for cleaning on the date of departure (usually for apartments only). 

Beds
The standard measurement for an ordinary bed is normally 80×200 cm. 

  • Mattress pad is rarely included in the normal standard. The beds might feel a bit harder than you are used to due to this. 
  • Often the extra bed is a chair/sofa bed or a foldable bed of much simpler standard than the ordinary beds. 
  • It might feel crowded in the apartment when extra beds or a cot is being used. 
  • In some hotels, children (2-11 years) can share an extra bed. 
  • Grandlit is a small double bed, at least 120 cm wide, with one set of bedding. 

Double rooms can have a double bed or 2 combined single beds.

A three-person room will not guarantee three beds. In most cases they will have two double beds and one provisional movable bed. In some hotels the rooms have two wide beds in which case no extra bed will be offers (e.g. the children share beds with their parents) – this is most common in destinations outside of Europe, but it happens in our part of the world as well. 

It is often possible to borrow a cot in most hotels, but we can unfortunately not guarantee it. Type into the “wishing” field at the time of booking that you need a cot and we will pass it on to the hotel. There might be an extra fee. 

Transfer 

It is possible to pre-book transfer to the majority of all our destinations. We recommend you to do this at the time of booking so that you can avoid the administrative fee (EUR 50) you have to pay when contacting our customer service for manual booking. Transfer can be booked manually no later than 7 days before departure. 

In many destinations the bus transfer is made for several flights at once, meaning that you might have to wait at departure and arrival. The transfer bus might stop at several destinations during its route, and if there is a lot of traffic on the roads it might take a while before you arrive at your hotel. If you want a fast and smooth transfer a private transfer is recommended. 

You are responsible to make sure that all your luggage will be loaded and unloaded on the bus. Keep in mind that the bags will be packed tight, just as on the flight. The suitcases and its contents should be prepared for this. 

We can never guarantee that a child car seat will be available with our suppliers – therefore we recommend you to bring your own. When it is accessible there might be an extra fee which is to be paid in connection to the transfer taking place. 

When cancelling a transfer, no refund will be given. 

Valuables 

Keep your valuables and money in the hotel safe. Some hotels charge a fee and a deposit if you want to use their safe. 

Heating and water 

In some hotels heating costs extra, if so, payment will be made directly to the hotel. There are a number of different heating systems/modules which differ in capacity and noise level. Some hotels have central heating meaning that heating is on, as a general rule, during the period November – March. 

The hot water is often heated by solar panels or similar on the roofs. It might happen that the hotel runs out of hot water temporarily during the time of the day when many of the guests take a shower, or due to low water pressure. Water rationing might happen during extreme circumstances.
