Tour Cancellation: Step-by-Step Process

When a traveler decides to cancel their tour, follow these steps:

Step 1: Submit the Cancellation Request

As soon as the traveler notifies you about their decision to cancel the trip, the corporate client must submit a cancellation request through their personal account.

If technical reasons prevent you from submitting the request through the personal account, send a written cancellation request to: book@travel-code.com

Step 2: Automatic Cancellation

When the cancellation request is submitted through the personal account, the booking is automatically canceled with a 100% retention of actual incurred costs.

Step 3: Request Cost Minimization (Optional)

To request a review and possible reduction of the retained amount, send a minimization request to book@travel-code.com with the following documents attached:

  • A formal request for cost minimization on the company's official letterhead
  • A scanned copy of the traveler's written cancellation request stating the reason for the cancellation
  • In case of cancellation due to illness of one of the travelers – official medical certificates in English to support the request for reduced cancellation costs from our partners

Step 4: Processing Time

The processing time for a cost minimization request is up to 10 business days.

Step 5: Submit Refund Request

After receiving an official response from the Payments Department and if a refund is approved, the corporate client must send a refund request to: book@travel-code.com (Please use the official refund request form.)

Step 6: Request Confirmation of Costs

An official confirmation of the amount of actual incurred costs withheld by the tour operator can be provided upon request. The request must be submitted by the corporate client to: book@travel-code.com
