4. TRAVEL DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING TSA AND DHS ACCEPTABLE IDENTIFICATION
REQUIREMENTS
It is the responsibility of each Client to obtain and carry a valid passport book, visa(s), and all
other documents required by applicable government regulations. Passport cards are not
accepted for most international travel. When traveling domestically or internationally, the U.S.
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
advise that everyone carry acceptable identification in order to board a flight. Acceptable
identification can be found at http://www.tsa.gov/ and examples include DHS-designated
enhanced driver’s license, US passport, or a foreign government passport.
Certain countries will not admit a passenger if their passport expires within six (6) months of
the anticipated date of return. Non-United States citizens may require additional
documentation, and you are responsible to make Travels by Danielle aware when traveling on a
passport from a country other than the United States of America. Travels by Danielle neither
controls nor warrants the issuance of visas or approval of visa waivers related to your travel.
Should a visa not be issued, Travels by Danielle is not responsible for lost payments made
toward your trip. Please note that rules of each country regarding entry and exit may change at
any time.
Children and infants may also require travel documents. Minors traveling with one parent,
and/or without both parents, may be stopped and not admitted, unless authenticated and
verified consent forms are provided to the authorities; please see https://help.cbp.gov for
additional information. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency requires that for
groups of children under age 19 arriving to the United States by land or sea from contiguous
territory and traveling with a school group, religious group, social or cultural organization, or
sports team, may also present an original or copy of his or her birth certificate, a Consular
Report of Birth Abroad, or a Naturalization Certificate. Parental or legal guardian consent must
be provided to the supervising adult or group leader in writing.
The name, date of birth and gender that appears on the identification card must exactly match
the same such data that is listed on your tickets and booking records. You acknowledge that it is
your responsibility to ensure that the information on your tickets and confirmations is accurate.
Any discrepancy between your reservation and your travel documentation may result in denied
boarding or an undue delay at an airport security checkpoint causing you to miss your flight,
and any subsequent scheduled travel bookings on cruises and tours.

VERIFY ALL INFORMATION FOR ACCURACY. CONTACT TRAVELS BY DANIELLE IMMEDIATELY IF

5. INDIVIDUAL ENTRY AND EXIT REQUIREMENTS
Each country holds different views of past criminal offenses, whether within or outside of their
boundaries. If you have a current or prior criminal offense, contact that country directly for
entry and exit requirements. You can visit the US State Department Website for further
information about these requirements. See, https://travel.state.gov/content/travel.html. We
do not inquire about an individual’s criminal record in the interest of respecting our Clients’
privacy. For example, if traveling to or through Canada, individuals with a Driving While
Intoxicated (DWI) record or with judgements for unpaid child support should review current
entry requirements. See: https://www.canada.ca.
6. IMMUNIZATIONS AND HEALTH SCREENINGS
You must have the proper immunizations and health screenings and required documentation of
such immunizations and screenings before travel. Travels by Danielle shall not assume
responsibility for the accuracy of health, vaccination, or documentation requirements prior to
departure or upon landing at the final destination. In some cases, required inoculations must be
recorded by Client’s health practitioner on a valid vaccination certificate, which the Client must
carry for proof of inoculation. If you are concerned about taking any medications or receiving
certain inoculations, check with your health practitioner BEFORE booking. Check the State
Department Web site http://travel.state.gov, for relevant information relating to travel to
specific destinations, and the Center for Disease Control http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/ relating
to health issues related to travel.
7. ACCESSIBILITY, TRAVELERS WITH DISABILITIES, SPECIAL TRAVEL NEEDS.
Travelers with disabilities or special needs who may require non-emergency special services,
additional support or accommodation of a disability should advise us in advance of booking, so
that we can request assistance or arrange for appropriate services or equipment. In some cases
when travelers are unable to use their own wheelchairs, mobility devices, medical equipment
or devices, rental of special equipment or devices may result in additional charges. Airlines may
impose charges for additional baggage and may have restrictions on the size of wheelchairs
that they can accommodate.
In order to travel with a service animal or emotional support animal, some Suppliers may
require advance arrangements and special documentation of the animal’s health and training.
When traveling outside of the United States or Canada, laws and regulations will often apply
different standards of accommodation for travelers with disabilities or special needs. While we
are committed to assisting travelers with disabilities or special needs, Travels by Danielle is not
responsible for the failure of Suppliers in those countries to meet the needs of travelers when
the Supplier follows laws and regulations of the local jurisdiction. Additionally, the laws and
regulations of local jurisdications covering travelers with disabilities or special needs may
change without prior advance notice and Travels by Danielle bears no responsibility in case of
changes in the legal or regulatory framework of the places you may visit on your trip.
Certain destinations may have limited medical facilities or limited availability of prescription
medications. We recommend that you consult with your health practitioner to discuss the
details of your trip. Certain travel insurance plans may provide access to emergency medical
care, medical evacuation and replacement of prescription medication. WE RECOMMEND THE
PURCHASE OF COMPREHENSIVE TRAVEL INSURANCE ON ALL BOOKINGS.
8. RISKS AND SAFETY
Travel to certain destinations may involve greater risk than others. Travels by Danielle urges
Clients to remain informed on a daily basis as to current news events, as well as to review travel
prohibitions, warnings, announcements and advisories issued by the United States Government

conditions in various countries and the level of risk associated with travel to particular
international destinations can be found at http://www.state.gov, http://www.tsa.gov,

Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) is a free service provided by the U.S. Government to
U.S. citizens who are traveling to, or living in, a foreign country. STEP allows you to enter

Certain activities that are included as part of itineraries that we book pose inherent risks and

safety equipment and to ask questions if you are unsure about how to properly or safely use
equipment.
If you use, consume, or are under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs prior to or while
engaging in any activities on your itinerary, YOU ASSUME AND ACCEPT ALL RISKS, DANGERS,
AND HAZARDS THAT MAY RESULT INCLUDING THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH,

or third parties, and you indemnify Travels by Danielle from any and all liability for any damage
to property or personal injury to any third party, resulting from your participation in the

alterations to the itinerary.
9. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Federal law prohibits passengers from bringing hazardous materials on the aircraft.
(1) Federal law forbids the carriage of hazardous materials aboard aircraft in the passenger’s
luggage or on the passenger’s person. A violation can result in five years’ imprisonment and

If you purchase air travel through Travels by Danielle, you acknowledge and agree that Travels by Danielle does not have the right to control the operations of independent airlines, and agree that Travels by Danielle is not liable for any personal injury, property damage related to your purchase of air tickets or air travel, including, but not limited to any act, error, omission, injury, loss, accident, or delay caused by any act, error or omission of the airline, including their failure to deliver services, partial or inadequate delivery of services, airline policies including refund or rebooking policies, fees for checked or carry-on luggage, fuel increases, bankruptcy or cessation of operations. You understand and agree that Travels by Danielle functions solely and exclusively as a booking agent for the air carrier, that we do not handle or hold client funds for airline tickets, and that we are not the Merchant of Record under the meaning of that term under the Department of Transportation's regulations. Because Travels by Danielle does not hold or handle client funds, you understand and agree that any refund for cancelled or delayed flights, baggage fees or seat assignments must come directly from the airline and not from Travels by Danielle. Travels by Danielle shall not assume any responsibility for any air schedule changes. In rare instances, upon departure from a country, certain departure taxes must be paid in cash only, and may vary in price. Failure to use a reservation may result in automatic cancellation of all continuing and return flights, as well as forfeiture of airfares. Airline e-tickets expire a year from issue date unless carrier fare rules in passenger’s itinerary fare provide otherwise. Due to enhanced security, it is strongly recommended that you check in a minimum of 2 hours prior to scheduled departure for domestic flights and 3 hours prior to scheduled departure time for international flights. Reconfirm flight times at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure time for domestic flights, and 72 hours prior for international flights. Frequent Flyer mileage accrual is at the discretion of the airline(s). Travels by Danielle has no liability if accrual of miles or points is denied or if upgrades are not allowed. Many airlines do not permit upgrades on airfare purchased in certain fare classes or when using frequent flyer miles, loyalty status or certificates. Seat assignments are not guaranteed even after they are assigned, and Travels by Danielle has no control over airline seat assignments. Most airlines charge a fee to pre book a seat. |
