Airlines retain the right to reschedule flight times, route, change or cancel flights or itineraries independent of and without prior intimation to HOLIDAYS R US.

The baggage allowance on given fare is as per the terms decided by the airline, and HOLIDAYS R US has no role to play in the same.

The prices for adding check-in baggage to a booking may vary from airline to airline. The User is advised to contact the airlines for detailed costs.

Code share

Some airlines enter into "code share" agreements with other Airlines. This means that on certain routes, the airline carrier selling or marketing the flight ticker does not fly its own aircraft to that destination. Instead, it contracts or partners with another airline to fly to that destination. The partner airline is listed as "operated by" in the booking flow.

If your flight is a code share, it will be disclosed to you in the booking process and prior to payment.
