At The Travel Advocates, we strive to make your travel planning seamless and transparent. Below are our payment and refund guidelines to ensure clarity and trust at every step.
Booking Confirmation:
A non-refundable deposit (20-30% of the total package cost) is required to confirm your booking.
Full payment must be completed at least 30 days before departure (unless specified otherwise for last-minute bookings).
Accepted Payment Methods:
Credit/Debit Cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex)
Bank Transfers (NEFT/IMPS/RTGS)
UPI Payments (PhonePe, Google Pay, Paytm)
Travel Now, Pay Later options (subject to approval)
Payment Deadlines:
Failure to complete payments by the due date may result in automatic cancellation of your booking.
Customized or high-demand packages may require earlier full payment.
We understand plans change. Here’s how refunds work:
Cancellation by Customer:
Before 30 days of departure:
Refund of 70-80% of the total amount (excluding deposit).
Within 30-15 days of departure:
Refund of 50% of the total amount (excluding deposit).
Within 14 days or less:
No refund (except for recoverable costs like flights/hotels).
No-Show or Early Departure:
No refunds for unused services due to late arrival or voluntary trip termination.
Force Majeure (Natural Disasters, Political Unrest, etc.):
Travel credits will be issued for future bookings (valid for 12 months).
Refunds (if any) will exclude non-recoverable costs (e.g., airline/hotel penalties).
Changes to travel dates are subject to availability.
Rescheduling fees may apply (varies by airline/hotel policies).

7-14 business days after approval.
Refunds will be issued via the original payment method.
Travel insurance is highly recommended to cover unforeseen cancellations.
Airline/hotel refunds follow their respective policies (we assist in claims).
