Products and Services.Through the Platform, Mondee advertises, markets, promotes, offers and sells various Travel Services and Ancillaries on behalf of numerous transport, accommodation and entertainment service providers, including, but not limited to airlines, hotels, car rental companies, vacation rentals, ticket and attraction providers, and cruise line operators (“Travel Service Providers”). Mondee does not own, operate, manage or control these independent Travel Service Providers and is not liable for their acts or omissions. By using the Platform, You are entering into a binding contractual relationship with Travel Service Provider(s) when making a reservation. Once a reservation has been made, Mondee acts as solely an intermediary between You and the Travel Service Provider(s); Mondee will transmit the details of Your reservation to the applicable Travel Service Provider and send You an email confirmation detailing the reservation on behalf of the Travel Service Provider. All bookings are subject to the terms and conditions, and limitations of liability imposed by the Travel Service Provider(s) some of which exclude liability in respect of death, personal injury, delay and loss or damage to baggage. If for any reason, any Travel Service Provider is unable to provide the services for which You have contracted, then Your remedy lies against the Travel Service Provider, and not against Mondee; You understand that Your respective legal recourse is against the specific Travel Service Provider and not Mondee. The offerings disclosed on the Platform are provided by Travel Service Providers; Travel Service Providers are responsible for updating all rates, prices, fees, availability, travel policies, terms and conditions, and other information displayed through the Platform. Mondee does not verify whether this information is accurate or complete and will not be held responsible for any inaccurate, misleading or false information provided by Travel Service Provider(s). Mondee does not warrant or guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information provided on the Platform. Under no circumstances will Mondee be liable for any loss or direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages caused by reliance on this information. The Platform does not recommend or endorse the quality, service level, type or description of any Travel Service Provider or its offerings, unless Mondee specifically states otherwise.

Your Use of the Platform. You may only use the Platform to make legitimate reservations or purchases and shall not use the Platform for any other purposes, including without limitation, to provide travel agency services, to make any false or fraudulent reservation(s) or any reservation in anticipation of demand. You will not make reservations in the name of a fictitious person. You will not use any device, software or routine that would interfere or be reasonably to interfere with the normal operation of the Platform. You will not take any action that imposes a burden or load on our infrastructure that Mondee deems in its sole discretion to be unreasonable or disproportionate to the benefits we obtain from such Your use of the Platform.

Booking Conditions.Prices shown on the Platform are for one adult and are subject to additional charges, including, without limitation: the September 11th Security fee of $2.50 for each flight segment, with a maximum of up to $5.00 per one-way or $10.00 per round-trip; Passenger Facility Charges of up to $18.00, depending on itinerary; Federal Segment Fees of $3.20 per segment; a Travel Facilities Tax of up to $14.00 per round-trip for domestic flights beginning or ending in Alaska or Hawaii; and for International Travel, Foreign and U.S. Government-imposed charges up to $200.00 per round-trip, depending on routing and destination. A segment is defined as a take-off and a landing. *Taxes and Government Fees Are Additional.

Passports and Visas. All individuals travelling internationally must be in possession of a valid passport. Please check that each traveller’s passport is valid for 6 months or longer than the intended travel time. It is each traveller’s responsibility to ensure that they have valid travel documentation, including but not limited to passports and visas, which meet the requirements of immigration and other government authorities at every departure point and destination. Each traveller is responsible for confirming with the United States Department of State or representative government agency of the country to which such traveller is traveling to confirm the requirements for visas and/or other requirements for admission to the destination. A government issued ID is required for travel within the USA, however depending on the State of departure or arrival, a passport may be required instead of a driver’s license.

Cancellations and Refunds. For refundable fares, a processing fee may be charged for all permitted cancellations.
Most airline service fees and airline tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE after 24 hours from time of booking and only if bookings are at least seven days in advance of the date of travel. Refund requests will be accepted only after the following conditions have been met:
Traveler has applied for cancellation and refund with Mondee and the airline rules allow for the same. Traveler should not be a ‘no show’. Most no-show bookings are not eligible for refund processing from suppliers. Waivers may be secured from time to time from the airlines by Mondee to process a request for cancellation and refund. All requests for refunds are processed in a sequence. Once a refund request is submitted its receipt will be acknowledged electronically. A request on your behalf will be made to the concerned airlines for a waived amount based on the rules of the airlines. You will be notified of the decision of the airlines. Generally, a penalty is charged for refunds by all airlines. Please note that Mondee depends on the airlines to receive refunds. After approval of refund by the airlines, it might take additional time to reflect in your credit card statement. The entire process, from receipt of your refund request to reflection of the same in your credit card statement, might take 60-90 days. Apart from the refund penalties imposed by the airline, a fee of up to $50 per ticket for processing this refund may be charged by Mondee. These fees will be assessed only if the airline has authorized the refund or a waiver has been received and when such refunds are permitted by rules of the airline. In case the airline does not process your refund, we will refund any refund processing fees charged by Mondee.

Cancel and Exchange. Most airline tickets are completely non-transferable and non-refundable. In cases where the airline does allow cancellations, a credit may be valid towards ticket purchases in the future with travel on the same airline. Fare differences (if any) and any applicable airline penalties will be added in such cases. All such bookings that allow for cancellation must be cancelled with Mondee prior to the scheduled departure time of the flight. We do not guarantee any cancellation. At the time of booking cancellation, a cancellation fee of up to $50 per ticket may be charged and retained by Mondee. The credit available must be used within a certain time period and date or you will lose the credit amount. Mondee will attempt to keep you appraised of the time constraints and expiration date of any credit. When making a new booking, you will have to pay any applicable fare difference, airline penalties and Mondee exchange fees. All such airline changes are governed by the rules and regulations of the airlines. No representations or guarantees on fees or changes are provided by Mondee. Read our Refunds policy if you are cancelling a booking or applying for refund. For changing the flight dates or routing, read more about our Change policy.

Exchange Fees. For itineraries where the airline permits changes, a change/exchange fee is charged by Mondee, along with any fare difference and airline penalties. You will be notified of the total cost of the exchanged ticket. Mondee’s Ticket Exchange fees (not including airline penalty fees and fare difference) may vary by complexity of the ticket being exchanged and time until date of travel. For Domestic Travel where the Departure Date is more than 7 days in the future – up to $100, Domestic Travel where Departure Date is within 7 Days – up to $150, International Travel where Departure Date is more than 7 days in the future – up to $200, International Travel where Departure Date is within 7 days – up to $300. Mondee makes no additional representation for these exchange fees except assistance in locating your new desired flights and making attempts to re-book new flights subject to availability and other factors.

Trip Insurance. For each traveller’s protection, Mondee encourages the purchase of trip cancellation and travel accident protection. No representation or description of the protection made by Mondee to You or Your travel companion or group travel member constitutes a binding assurance or promise about the protection. Mondee is not an insurance company and has no responsibility for the submission, payment or adjustment of any insurance claims. Any claims that may fall under the relevant travel protection policy must be submitted to the third-party insurance company identified in the policy. You can purchase optional trip cancellation and travel accident protection through the Services. It is advisable that You acquire adequate insurance coverage to secure Your life, health, and property.

Hotel Bookings. While booking a hotel through the Platform, please carefully go through the fact sheet in details to ensure that the amenities present satisfy Your requirements. Mondee generally updates all these fact sheets however it is dependent on the Travel Service Provider to provide updated information. Renovations at hotels are normally undertaken at the sole discretion of the applicable Travel Service Provider and Mondee is not necessarily informed. In case of any dispute, Mondee shall not be liable for any missing or inaccurate information.

Sightseeing Bookings. You have a choice of seat in coach sightseeing and private sightseeing tours. Please choose the same carefully. Panoramic tours do not allow You to stop at the site of the attractions. You will have to follow a schedule. Entrances to attractions are not included in city tours unless specified.

Airline Bookings. You have a choice of full service and low cost airline and seating options. These low cost options may not have all services available on board, therefore please choose the airlines and seating options carefully before booking. You should review the fare rules and also select Your class of travel, since some fares are non-refundable and may result in penalties for changes or cancellations. Fares are not guaranteed until tickets are issued. You will receive an e-mail confirmation once Your tickets have been issued. Paper tickets and/or e-tickets will be provided to You, both are valid to travel by the airlines; however certain airlines do not entertain e-tickets. In such cases, You will be issued paper tickets. Mondee is only an intermediary, and therefore, Mondee cannot be held responsible for any delay or cancellation of flight, or change of route – this is typically a decision made by the airline. Mondee does not control or operate any airline. You will be subject to all terms and conditions of the applicable airline(s). You will have to limit Yourself as per applicable baggage policy of the airlines for the respective class that You have booked. Some airlines may charge fees for checked baggage.

You may not be eligible for refund claim if bookings are done through other websites where the carrier booking details are unknown until after purchase. Additionally, You must fulfill all the criteria as mentioned by the lower price offer (if any), including, without limitation, residency, regional and age-related requirements.

MONDEE’S MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU, AND THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY HEREUNDER FOR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES, INJURY, AND LOSSES ARISING FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF, BASED ON, RESULTING, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES (INCLUDING ANY INFORMATION OR CONTENT CONTAINED THEREIN), SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) OR THE EQUIVALENT IN LOCAL CURRENCY. THE EXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE CLAIMS OR SUITS UNDER OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE WEBSITE WILL NOT ENLARGE OR EXTEND THE LIMITATION OF MONEY DAMAGES.

Some states/jurisdictions may prohibit or limit the exclusion or limitation of liability, certain implied warranties, or incidental or consequential damages; solely to the extent that such law applies to You, some or all of the above disclaimers, limitations, or exclusions may not apply to You, and You may have certain additional rights under applicable law. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542, WHICH SAYS: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

13. Dispute Resolution.
YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ANY LEGAL CLAIM, DISPUTE OR OTHER CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND US OR OUR CORPORATE PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES, AND AFFILIATES, AND ALL OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY, “Mondee PARTIES”), THE PROGRAM OR THE CONTENT, INCLUDING CONTROVERSIES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY OR VALIDITY OF ANY PROVISION OF THESE TERMS (COLLECTIVELY “DISPUTES”) SHALL BE RESOLVED IN CONFIDENTIAL BINDING ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BEFORE ONE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATOR FROM THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”), RATHER THAN IN A COURT, AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE AAA’S COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND, IF THE ARBITRATOR DEEMS THEM APPLICABLE, THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (COLLECTIVELY “RULES AND PROCEDURES”), AND JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD RENDERED BY THE ARBITRATOR MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION THEREOF. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, “DISPUTE” WILL ALSO INCLUDE DISPUTES THAT AROSE OR INVOLVE FACTS OCCURRING BEFORE THE EXISTENCE OF THIS OR ANY PRIOR VERSIONS OF THE TERMS AS WELL AS CLAIMS THAT MAY ARISE AFTER THE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS.
The place of arbitration shall be the State of Texas or, where limited by applicable law, the jurisdiction in which You reside or may be conducted by telephone, online or based solely upon written submissions where no in-person appearance is required. Notwithstanding this Section 12, we may bring a claim for injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights or those of our affiliates, suppliers, or licensors.

WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS: We each agree that any Dispute will be arbitrated or litigated, as the case may be, on an individual basis and shall not be consolidated with any claim of any other party whether through class action proceedings, class arbitration proceedings or otherwise. WE EACH AGREE THAT WE ARE KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVING ANY RIGHT WE MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS.
OPTION TO OPT-OUT: To opt out of the arbitration and class-action waiver terms in this Section 12, You must notify us in writing within 30 days of the date that You first accept these Terms (unless a longer period is required by applicable law). You must mail Your written notification to Mondee, Inc., Attention: [Legal Department] to [INSERT ADDRESS]. and Your written notification must include Your name, address and an unequivocal statement that You want to opt-out of this arbitration agreement.

You acknowledge and agree that, regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action You may have must be filed within one (1) calendar year after such claim or cause of action arises, or forever be barred.

For purposes of any claim that is not subject to the arbitration procedures in this Section 12, we both agree to the governing law and jurisdiction as set out in Section 13(i) and (ii) below. Payment of arbitration costs will be governed by the AAA’s fee schedule. Each party agrees to pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a governing statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid attorneys’ fees and expenses.

Except as provided above, if any part or parts of this arbitration agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the arbitration agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
