Rules & Conditions of ASAP Tickets
Disputes
The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), the Service, or the Website shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association. The one exception to the exclusivity of arbitration is that you have the right to bring an individual claim against the Company in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction. But whether you choose arbitration or small-claims court, you may not under any circumstances commence or maintain against the Company any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding. By using the Website or the Service in any manner, you agree to the above arbitration agreement. In doing so, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and the Company (except for matters that may be taken to small-claims court). YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can grant any relief that a court can, but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against the Company (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in San Francisco, California. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. This Agreement, and any dispute between you and the Company, shall be governed by the laws of the state of California without regard to principles of conflicts of law, provided that this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by filling out an
arbitration opt out letter
and sending it to our email
[email protected]
within 30 days of first accepting these Terms.
Fraud Prevention Measures
International Travel Network LLC, as a leading consolidator to Africa, is committed to offer competitive fares to our customers residing in the US. We know many of our customers have relatives and friends abroad who may want to visit our customer in the US or even relocate permanently. That is why we offer competitive one-way and round-trip fares from a wide selection of departure points abroad. Recently, some of our customers have become victims of a scam.
Scammers are increasingly sophisticated, and it no longer takes a "fool" to be a victim. Perpetrators of fraudulent campaigns invest careful time with their victims, setting up a relationship of trust, confidence and if possible, even romantic involvement. Once a close relationship is established, a request or plea for help is usually made. Typically, a state of emergency is created and our clients are asked for help with visa, airline ticket, a large inheritance, or other legal problems.
It is possible to have a real, honest and lasting relationship with someone from abroad. Nevertheless, no matter where you met and what the circumstances are, we strongly encourage all our customers to be cautious when purchasing tickets for individuals residing abroad. Due to the extreme level of scam activity in some countries, we strongly advise a background check.
International Travel Network LLC requires credit card verifications for all third party credit card transactions. It protects us against daily fraud attempts. We are very unhappy to learn about any fraud that affects our customers. This is why we are sharing this recent experience with you - our customers. We hope that this information is helpful and wish your friends and relatives a safe flight and satisfying stay in the US.
Billing Information
Please note: The billing address must match exactly the address on the credit card statement. Those customers who wish to purchase tickets for relatives or friends will be contacted by an ITN billing support representative to initiate a three way call to authorise the purchase directly with the issuing bank. Some credit and/or debit cards may have daily limits; please ensure with your bank that you have sufficient funds for the purchase of your ticket(s). The fares are not guaranteed until the tickets are issued.
Itinerary Information
The names of the passengers provided must match the names shown on the passports. Once the tickets are issued, they are non transferable. Even a small mistake in the name can cause a major inconvenience for the passengers during their travel. Sometimes this mistake can even prevent the passengers from using their tickets. Remember that many of the deeply discounted fares are non refundable.
Collecting personal data
The TSA (TRANSPORTATION SECURITY ADMINISTRATION) requires us to transmit information collected from you. Providing this information is mandatory. Issuing your tickets will not be possible without this information. TSA may share information you provide with law enforcement or intelligence agencies or others under its records notice. For more on TSA privacy policies or to view the records notice and the privacy impact assessment, see TSA's web site at at
TSA.gov
.
Change Of Aircraft En Route
Sometimes you must change aircraft en route even though your ticket may show only one flight number and have only one coupon for that flight. Further, in the case of some travel, one of your flights may not be identified at the airport by the number on your ticket, or it may be identified by other flight numbers in addition to the one on your ticket. At your request, the seller of this ticket will give you details of your change of aircraft, such as where it will occur and what aircraft types are involved.
Travel Documents
Travel documents required for all tickets (paper, e-tickets, or paperless) include a valid Passport, which must be presented for all international flights. Some countries may require a visa and/or health card. It is the passenger's responsibility to have all necessary travel documents in possession at check-in. The passengers shall verify the visa requirements for all the stops as some of the countries may require a transit visa. Those passengers transiting via or connecting between the airports within the European Union - Schengen Zone may need a Schengen Entry visa. Travelling on a one way ticket may be restricted. If you are travelling on a one way ticket, it is your responsibility to make sure you are eligible. ITN agents do not advise passengers on visa requirements. Please contact the embassy of the country you are going to visit or transit through to get the up-to-date requirements.
In addition, passport and visa information may be obtained by contacting the Travel Advisory Section of the U.S. State Department at (1) 202 647 5225 or by visiting the State Department's Web site at
Travel.State.Gov
. Non-U.S. passport holders should be sure to contact the embassies of their destination and transit countries to obtain entrance requirements. To obtain medical information, you may contact the centres for Disease Control at (1) 404 332 4559 or visit the CDC's Web site at

1. Cancellations and refunds
-
Cancellation and refunds before departure not permitted.
-
Cancellation and refunds after departure not permitted.
2. Exchanges
-
Changes before departure not permitted.
-
Changes after departure not permitted.
The above confirmed tickets are non-reroutable and non-transferable.
If fare rules allow refunds and/or exchanges, a $ 250.00 ITN fee will be charged to process any refund and/or exchange request. This fee will be collected in addition to the penalties charged directly by the airline and/or recalled by the airline from ITN LLC (recalled commissions). Reservations for tickets to be refunded and/or exchanged must be cancelled at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure -
NO SHOW ticket(s) will not be processed for refund and/or exchange
. Cancellation of reservation does not automatically initiate refund. All exchanges can be made only prior to scheduled departure. All exchanges are subject to fare difference and fare rules applicable on the date of change.
After the tickets are issued, any changes or refunds are subject to the restrictions of the fares used. Generally speaking, discounted fares are more restrictive and in many cases they are non refundable and non exchangeable. Please pay attention to the fare restrictions of your tickets. I f you need more flexibility with your tickets in terms of refunds and exchanges, please consult your agent and request a less restrictive fare. Airlines offer a wide range of fares, including those that offer exchanges and refunds without any restrictions and penalties. The airlines strictly follow their policies, and do not permit exchanges or refunds in case the fare restrictions do not allow it. The airlines determine the restrictions of the fares, and ITN has no power to override these restrictions.
The airlines change their fares and the availability of the seats on daily basis. Most airlines file their fares with the Airline Tariff Publishing Company. These file updates can occur several times a day. The airlines manage their seat inventory through their reservation systems. In most cases, they decrease or increase the seat inventory (and thus the fare availability) based on many factors which may include for example reservation cancellations or load factor on certain flights. ITN cannot predict the fare value nor can it guarantee that the airlines will not release cheaper seat inventory. Once the tickets are issued, they are subject to fare restrictions.
Baggage Information
The airline(s) may require you to pay additional fees at the airport if your baggage exceeds certain limitations, such as the number, weight, size, and dimensions of your bags. Some airlines do not offer any free baggage allowance. Baggage allowance policies and baggage fees associated with checked or carry-on baggage vary widely and are subject to change by the airlines at any time. Be advised to check directly with the airline for the latest baggage allowance information.

Failure to use any reservations may result in an automatic cancellation of all continuing and return reservations and suspension of the tickets; contact ITN or the airline prior to your scheduled departure to cancel your existing reservation and retain the original value of the ticket if applicable. Check in time recommended for all international flights is a minimum of 3 hours, even if you are travelling on a domestic carrier to another airport and connecting to your international flight.
