Egencia (Shanghai) International Travel Service Co., Ltd. Terms of Use

Last Revised May 5, 2023

Welcome to the Egencia (Shanghai) International Travel Service Co website (the “Website”). This Website is provided solely to assist a company that subscribes to the Egencia service (a “Company”) and Company’s authorized travelers (“authorized travelers” or “travelers”) to manage their business travel needs, including gathering travel information, determining the availability of travel-related goods and services, booking legitimate reservations for themselves or, in the case of Company designated travel arrangers (“travel arrangers”, on behalf of others or otherwise transacting business with travel suppliers, and Company’s designated travel managers (“travel managers”) to view and access reports, and for no other purposes.

The terms “we”, “us”, “our”, and “Egencia” refer to Egencia (Shanghai) International Travel Service Co, Egencia LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company, and its subsidiaries and corporate affiliates, including Travelscape, LLC (collectively, the “Egencia Companies”). “Egencia Partner” means any co-branded and/or linked website through which we provide links, content or service.

This Website is offered to you conditioned upon your acceptance, without modification, of all the terms, conditions, and notices set forth below (collectively, the “Terms of Use” or “Agreement”).

SUPPLIER RULES AND RESTRICTIONS

Additional terms and conditions will apply to your reservation and purchase of travel-related goods and services that you select. Please read these additional terms and conditions carefully. In particular, if you have purchased an airfare, please read the full terms and conditions of carriage issued by the Supplier, which can be found on the Supplier’s website. In addition, some fares may be booked using New Distribution Capabilities (“NDC”) or through a certain GDS/aggregator where servicing of the booking may need to be made with the supplier. You agree to abide by the terms and conditions of purchase imposed by any Supplier with whom you elect to deal, including, but not limited to, payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the Supplier’s rules and restrictions regarding availability and use of fares, products, or services. For example, an airfare booking is confirmed once all booking and purchase steps have been completed, including full payment being made using a valid form of payment, tickets have been issued, and the booking confirmed via email or the Supplier’s site. Airlines and other travel Suppliers may change their prices without notice. Egencia reserves the right to cancel your booking if full payment is not received in a timely fashion.

Egencia may offer you the opportunity to book a reservation for a combination of two one—way tickets instead of a roundtrip ticket. Combined one-way tickets may provide a greater choice of flights, are often cheaper and can be combined on the same airline or on different airlines. Unlike roundtrip tickets, each one-way ticket is subject to its own rules, restrictions, and fees. If one of these flights is affected by an airline change (e.g. cancellation or rescheduling) that causes you to make changes to the other flight, you will be responsible for any fees incurred for making changes to the unaffected flight.

For certain low-cost carriers, the price of your flight has been converted from a different currency for convenience purposes to provide you an estimate of the amount of the purchase in your local currency. As a result, when you book, the amount charged to your credit card by the airline may be slightly different due to currency fluctuations. Your statement may also include an applicable fee from your card issuer to process the transaction plus any applicable taxes for international purchases.

Certain law forbids the carriage of hazardous materials aboard aircraft in your luggage or on your person. A violation can result in five years’ imprisonment and penalties of $250,000 or more. Hazardous materials include explosives, compressed gases, flammable liquids and solids, oxidizers, poisons, corrosives and radioactive materials. Examples: Paints, lighter fluid, fireworks, tear gases, oxygen bottles, and radio-pharmaceuticals. There are special exceptions for small quantities (up to 70 ounces total) of medicinal and toilet articles carried in your luggage and certain smoking materials carried on your person.

Some hotel suppliers may require you to present a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit upon check-in to cover additional expenses incurred during your stay. Such deposit is unrelated to any payment received by Egencia for your hotel booking. Egencia is not liable for any costs incurred due to relocation. You acknowledge that some third-party providers offering certain services and/or activities may require you to sign their liability waiver prior to participating in the service and/or activity they offer. You understand that any violation of any such supplier’s rules and restrictions may result in cancellation of your reservation(s), in your being denied access to the applicable travel product or services, in your forfeiting any monies paid for such reservation(s), and/or in our debiting your account for any costs we incur as a result of such violation.

SORT ORDER

When booking your travel, Egencia will support you in complying with your company’s travel policy and its air carrier and other travel supplier preferences which Egencia may automate. To the extent that there is no conflict with the preceding, your company's preferences include that Egencia considers various factors when identifying travel suppliers and displaying or recommending itineraries or other services to travellers, such as availability, traveller choice, and preferred relationships that your company or Egencia have with travel suppliers, and that Egencia may take any other actions it deems appropriate, as your company's travel agent.

CORPORATE TRAVEL POLICIES

Your Company may provide Egencia LLC with its applicable travel policies (“Corporate Travel Policies”).

If you have any questions regarding the rules and regulations of your Corporate Travel Policy, please contact your Company directly for clarification.

PREPAID HOTEL RESERVATIONS

You acknowledge that Egencia LLC and/or the Expedia Companies pre-negotiate certain room rates with hotel suppliers to facilitate the booking of reservations. You also acknowledge that Egencia and/or the Expedia Companies provide you services to facilitate such booking of reservations for consideration (the “facilitation fee”). The room rate displayed on the Website is a combination of the pre-negotiated room rate for rooms reserved on your behalf by Egencia and/or the Expedia Companies and the facilitation fee retained by us for our services. You authorize Egencia and/or the Expedia Companies to book reservations for the total reservation price, which includes the room rate displayed on the Website, plus tax recovery charges, service fees and where applicable, taxes on our services. You agree that your credit card will be charged by us for the total reservation price. Upon submitting your reservation request you authorize Egencia and/or the Expedia Companies, including Travelscape, LLC, to facilitate hotel reservations on your behalf, including making payment arrangements with hotel suppliers.

You acknowledge that, except as provided below with respect to tax obligations on the amounts we retain for our services, we do not collect taxes for remittance to applicable taxing authorities. The tax recovery charges on prepaid hotel transactions are a recovery of the estimated transaction taxes (e.g. sales and use, occupancy, room tax, excise tax, value added tax, etc.) that are paid to the hotel supplier for taxes due on the hotel’s rental rate for the room. The hotel suppliers invoice us for certain charges, including tax amounts. The hotel suppliers are responsible for remitting applicable taxes to the applicable taxing jurisdictions. Neither Egencia nor the Expedia Companies act as co-vendors with the supplier with whom we book or reserve our customer’s travel arrangements. Taxability and the appropriate tax rate vary greatly by location. The actual tax amounts paid to the hotel suppliers may vary from the tax recovery charge amounts, depending upon the rates, taxability, etc. in effect at the time of the actual use of the hotel by our customers. We retain service fees as additional compensation in servicing your travel reservation. Service fees retained by us for our services vary based on the amount and type of hotel reservation.

You may cancel or change your prepaid hotel reservation, but you will be charged the cancellation or change fee indicated in the rules and restrictions for the hotel reservation, which may be as high as the full cost of the booking. If you do not cancel or change your reservation before the cancellation policy period applicable to the hotel you reserved, which varies by hotel (usually 24 to 72 hours prior to your date of arrival), you will be subject to a charge equal to applicable nightly rates, tax recovery charges and service fees. In the event you do not show for the first night of the reservation and plan to check-in for subsequent nights in your reservation, you must confirm the reservation changes with us no later than the date of the first night of the reservation to prevent cancellation of your reservation. You agree to pay any cancellation or change fees that you incur. In limited cases, some hotels do not permit changes to or cancellations of reservations after they are made, as indicated in the rules and restrictions for the hotel reservation. You agree to abide by the Terms of Use imposed with respect to your prepaid hotel reservations.

Sales, use, and/or local hotel occupancy taxes are imposed on the amounts that we charge for our services (facilitation fee and/or service fee) in certain jurisdictions. For hotel stays in New York State, but outside of New York City, for example, tax recovery charges as described above are collected to cover the taxes due on the rent received by the hotel supplier for the room and there is no local hotel occupancy tax on our services. The actual tax amounts paid by us to taxing authorities on our services may vary from the tax amounts charged depending upon the rates, taxability, etc. in effect at the time of the actual use of hotel by our customers.

PAY NOW OR PAY LATER DETAILS

With certain hotels, you may be presented with the option to pay online now or pay later at the hotel. If you select the “Pay Online Now” option, Egencia or the Expedia Companies will charge the amount to your credit card in the amount shown immediately. If you select “Pay Later at the Hotel”, the hotel will charge your credit card in the local currency at the time of your stay. In the event, you decide to pay later, in which your card is on hold at a hotel partner, and you do not show up or cancel, the hotel may impose a no-show fee. In this event, either the hotel or an Egencia or an Expedia Company will charge the hotel’s no-show fee in the hotel’s local currency. Please note that taxes and fees vary between the two payment options. Tax rates and foreign exchange rates could change in the time between booking and stay.

return to top

BANK AND CREDIT CARD FEES

Your payment is processed in the United States, when we process your payment. When the travel supplier processes your payment, it will be processed in the country in which the travel supplier is based.

Some banks and credit card companies impose fees for international or cross border transactions. For instance, if you are making a booking using a US-issued card with a non-US merchant, your bank may charge you a cross border or international transaction fee. Furthermore, booking international travel may be considered an international transaction by your bank or card company, since we may pass your card details to an international travel supplier to be charged. In addition, some banks and card companies impose fees for currency conversion. For instance, if you are making a booking in a currency other than the currency of your credit card, your credit card company may convert the booking amount to the currency of your credit card and charge you a conversion fee. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your bank on the day that they process the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your bank.

CURRENCY CONVERTER

If a currency convertor is available on the Website, the following terms and conditions apply: currency rates are based on various publicly available sources and should be used as guidelines only. Rates are not verified as accurate, and actual rates may vary. Currency quotes are not updated every day. Check the date on the currency converter feature for the day that currency was last updated. The information supplied by this application is believed to be accurate, but the Egencia Companies, the Expedia Partners, and/or our respective suppliers do not warrant or guarantee such accuracy. When using this information for any financial purpose, we advise you to consult a qualified professional to verify the accuracy of the currency rates. We do not authorize the use of this information for any purpose other than your personal use and you are expressly prohibited from the resale, redistribution, and use of this information for commercial purposes.

INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL

You are responsible for ensuring that you meet foreign entry requirements and that your travel documents, such as passports and visas (transit, business, tourist, and otherwise), are in order and any other foreign entry requirements are met. Egencia has no special knowledge regarding foreign entry requirements or travel documents. We urge customers to review travel prohibitions, warnings, announcements, and advisories issued by the relevant governments prior to booking travel to international destinations.

Passport and Visa: You must consult the relevant Embassy or Consulate for this information. Requirements may change and you should check for up-to-date information before booking and departure. We accept no liability if you are refused entry onto a flight or into any country due to your failure to carry the correct and adequate passport, visa, or other travel documents required by any airline, authority, or country, including countries you may just be transiting through. This includes all stops made by the aircraft, even if you do not leave the aircraft or airport.

Health: Recommended inoculations for travel may change and you should consult your doctor for current recommendations before you depart. It is your responsibility to verify that you meet all health entry requirements, obtain the recommended inoculations, take all recommended medication, and follow all medical advice in relation to your trip.

Disinsection: Although not common, most countries reserve the right to disinsect aircraft if there is a perceived threat to public health, agriculture or environment. The World Health Organization and the International Civil Aviation Organization have approved the following disinsection procedures: (1) spray the aircraft cabin with an aerosolized insecticide while passengers are on board or (2) treat the aircraft’s interior surfaces with a residual insecticide while passengers are not on board.
