TERMS OF THE AIRLINES
The airline tickets available through the Website are subject to the terms & conditions of the concerned airline, including but not limited to cancellation and refund policies.
Irise Travels merely acts as a facilitator to enable the User to book a flight ticket. The contract of service for utilization of the flight is always between the User and Innovative Travel Solutions, also the airlines.
Airlines retain the right to reschedule flight times, route, change or cancel flights or itineraries independent of and without prior intimation to Irise Travels. As a facilitator, Irise Travels has no control or authority over the logistics of the airlines and therefore is not liable for any loss, direct or incidental, that a User may incur due to such change or cancellation of a flight.
Different tickets on the same airline may carry different restrictions or include different services and prices.
The baggage allowance on given fare is as per the terms decided by the airline, and Irise Travels has no role to play in the same. Some of the fares shown in the booking flow are "hand baggage fares" which do not entitle the User for free check-in baggage and therefore the User will be required to pay separately for check-in baggage. 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 ticket 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.
iRise Travels will disclose any such code-share arrangements to the User, only when the ticketing airline discloses it to Irise Travels in the first place.
PRICING
The total price displayed on the Website on the payment page usually includes base fare, applicable government taxes and convenience fee. Users are required to pay the entire amount prior to the confirmation of their booking(s).

User agrees to pay all statutory taxes, surcharges, and fees, as applicable on the date of travel.
To avail infant fares, the age of the child must be under 24 months throughout the entire itinerary. This includes both onward and return journeys.

REFUND
Refunds will be processed as per the airline fare rules and cancellation policy. Such refunds shall be subject to Irise Travels receiving the same from the airlines & our travel partners. However, the convenience fee paid to Irise Travels paid at the time of booking is a non-refundable fee.
All cancellations made directly with the airline need to be intimated to Irise Travels, in order to initiate the process of refund. The processing time for refunds may vary depending on the mode of payment, bank etc. The refund shall be processed after deducting the Irise Travels service fee which is independent of the convenience fee as mentioned above.

For example, if the User used a credit card, Irise Travels will make an appropriate charge reversal to the same credit card; likewise if the User used a debit card, Irise Travels will credit the money to the same debit card.
