The User undertakes to use the Platform only where he/she actually needs to book and execute the E- Air tickets. Should the User fail to observe the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the access to the Platform may be blocked for this User.
1.3. The Contractor shall not be liable under agreements entered into by and between the User and the Carrier using the Platform. In particular, the Contractor shall only ensure an option to book, execute, return and exchange the E-Air tickets but legally binding obligations shall arise directly between the User/any persons in which favour the E-Air tickets are executed and the Carrier. The Carrier’s services on air carriage executed by the User shall be governed by the Carrier’s Rules as may be amended.

Despite the competence, the Contractor shall not be able to verify all the information furnished by service providers and may not guarantee that the information is free from any inaccuracies at all.

2.2. When using the Platform, obtaining access to the Personal account and further using of the Platform, the User undertakes:
- to update registration and other personal data where such data change.
Where personal data of any passenger are to be amended in the Order executed, such amendment will cause the Fares and Taxes agreed in the Order to be invalid because this Order shall be cancelled and the new Order shall be executed in order to amend such data of a passenger in the Order. Thus, the User shall assume all potential risks (execution of the new Order, change in price, repayment of money and etc.) connected with his/her actions that caused errors, inaccuracies in the personal data provided;

Any notices on change in schedule of flights, change of a departure/arrival airport, flight cancel or changes in any other flight details shall be sent by the Contractor in writing to e-mail specified by the User in executing the Order or in the Personal account in a request for exchange or return provided that notices on such changes are received from the Carrier. The Carrier may provide the User with such information directly by phone number specified in a reservation or by e-mail stated by the User. From the day on which the Order is executed until a voyage terminates, the User shall monitor messages in his/her electronic mailbox and messages delivered to the phone number specified. Otherwise, the Contractor shall not bear liability for failure to notify of changes in schedule of flights, change of a departure/arrival airport, flight cancel or changes in any other flight details if the User did not provide his/her contact details (phone number, e-mail and etc.) when booking an air carriage, or the Contractor could not contact the User using the contact details specified but the Contractor has tried to contact the User at least once by phone or e-mail and etc., inter alia, if the User did provide incorrect contact details. In cases referred to above, the Contractor shall not indemnify a passenger for losses caused by such failure to notify. The Contractor shall not bear liability for failure to provide such information or provision of incorrect information in cases where the Carrier did not provide such information or did provide incorrect information;

- to be fully held liable for any actions performed by the User using his/her Personal account. Unless the contrary is proved, any action performed using this User’s login and password shall be considered by the Contractor as performed by the User itself and causes relevant legal consequences.
2.3. If the Electronic tickets are executed or reservations are made but the User makes a reservation for the same passengers and dates in order to check price or for any other purposes, the Carrier may consider this reservation as double reservation. The Carrier may apply various policies in relation to double reservation but, as a rule, if such reservations coincide (reservation for the same passenger, for the same flights and dates or for the same flights but on different or close dates), the Carrier shall reserve the right to cancel one or all reservations in full. When making a reservation, a passenger shall assume all the responsibility for double reservations or reservations with tickets issued, executed using the Platform or any other sources.
2.4. The Orders executed by the User shall be conclusive. Immediately upon receipt from the User of the Order executed and when paid, the Contractor shall execute or ensure execution of the E-Air tickets. In some cases the E-Air tickets shall be executed within 24 hours upon execution of the Order and when paid. The E-Air tickets shall be issued automatically upon verification of a transaction made with a bank card. The Order execution shall be confirmed with a letter-confirmation sent to e-mail specified and including itinerary receipts with detailed information on the E-Air ticket executed. SMS-message including an itinerary and voyage dates under the E-Air ticket executed shall be also sent to phone number.
2.5. The Order shall be paid by one of the ways suggested by the Platform. The payment systems used to accept payments may refuse to effect a payment.
2.6. The Contractor shall collect the Service fee to be paid by the User for services on execution of the E-Air tickets and for return/exchange thereof. The Service fee for execution of the E-Air ticket shall be included in the cost of the Order. The Service fee shall be established by the Contractor at its sole discretion as of the date of execution of a relevant service and shall be displayed by the Platform in executing the Order or in performing return/exchange. The amount of the Service fee and collection thereof shall depend on the Carrier’s rules and, in some cases, on the cost of the E-Air ticket.
2.7. Pursuant to the current legislation, any transactions with bank cards shall be performed by a cardholder or by any person authorized by a cardholder. Transactions with bank cards shall be authorized with a payment system used to make a payment transaction. If the payment system has any grounds to consider a transaction as fraud, the system may refuse to perform this transaction. Pursuant to the Rules of International Payment Systems, in order to verify identity of a cardholder and authority to use a bank card, the User (which has executed the Order) shall, upon request by the Contractor, e-mail scanned copies of two pages of the cardholder’s passport (double page spread with a photo) and of two sides of a bank card (the first six and last four figures shall be shown) provided that the User’s special consent to processing of biometric personal data is obtained. Should the User fail to provide the documents requested by the date specified in the Contractor’s request or there are any doubts in authenticity thereof, the Contractor shall reserve the right to cancel the Order without giving any reasons. The cost of the Order paid shall be refunded to the cardholder’s bank card.
2.8. The User shall be solely and fully liable towards the bank and any other persons for wire payments made by the User in order to pay for the Order and determined by the bank as Fraud. Should the Contractor suffer any losses connected with determination of the User’s wire payments made to pay for the Order as Fraud, the User shall reimburse the Contractor any documented losses within 10 (ten) business days upon request by the Contractor.
2.9. The Carrier shall own seats until the E-Air ticket is executed and the Carrier shall reserve the right to remove seats, reschedule flights and change timetable and cost. The reservation shall not be absolute guarantee of cost and seats available. We advise you to book the E-Air ticket and execute it synchronously in order to avoid a price to be changed due to foreign exchange fluctuations and a reservation to be cancelled by the Carrier.
3.1. The E-Air tickets may be returned and exchanged by one of the following ways: in the Personal account or by e-mail. At that, the User shall make sure that the Contractor has received a relevant request. The processing period can reach 24 hours upon receipt of the relevant Request and this is a reason why the User is advised to send the Requests with due advance. The terms applicable in case of alteration of voyage documents executed, cancellation of a service, return and any other terms of rendering by providers of services shall be governed by the Fare rules which apply to this service, contract-offer with the Carrier, terms of related services, this Agreement and by the legislation of the Contractor’s country.
3.2. When the Order is paid with a bank card directly to the Contractor and the User wishes to return the E-Air ticket, the Order cost, net of the Contractor’s actual expenses, shall be transferred to the User’s bank card used to pay for the Order. The actual expenses shall mean expenses incurred by the Contractor for the purposes of organization of the Order fulfillment including penalties paid in favour of the Carriers, and also the Service fee to be collected by the Contractor for services rendered using the Platform depending on service type. Should the User cancel the Order paid with a bank card using the Platform and such payment has been transferred directly to the Carrier, the cost of the E-Air ticket cancelled, net of penalties and any other withholdings prescribed by the Carrier’s Rules, shall be transferred by the Carrier to the User’s bank card used to make a payment without the Contractor involved. In case of return thereof, the Service fee for execution of the E-Air tickets shall not be refunded to the User. In case of involuntary refund (cancel of a flight confirmed by the Carrier, disease or death of a passenger and etc.), the Service fee shall not be collected.
3.3. If a voyage terminates (or a passenger makes a stop) due to unforeseen circumstances not in the country of departure, the Warsaw Convention regulations may apply which, in most cases, limit the Carrier’s responsibility in case of death or injury of a passenger and also in case of loss or damage of luggage thereof.
4.1. When selecting flights, the User may make payments in Russian Rubles, Swiss francs, Euro, US dollars, and Ukrainian hryvnas.
4.2. When paying not with a bank card, a final price shall be given in Russian Rubles or Ukrainian hryvnas as selected by the User. The price given by the Platform in Russian Rubles/ Ukrainian hryvnas shall be valid provided that such price is paid in cash and in full as of the time of execution within the territory of the Russian Federation or Ukraine respectively.
4.3. When paying with a bank card, an amount expressed in currency selected by the User shall be written off from the User’s bank card except where a payment is made directly to an airline (in such a case an amount shall be written off in currency stated by the airline’s acquirer bank). The User’s card-issuing bank shall convert this amount into currency of the bank card at the internally generated rate, so, an amount expressed in currency of the bank card may differ from an amount displayed by the Platform (inter alia, upward) because the internally generated rate of the bank always differs from disclosed exchange rates fixed by the RF Central Bank or FOREX. The User shall clarify an internally generate rate of the card-issuing bank and a commission amount to be charged by the bank for currency conversion before paying with a bank card. By making a payment, the Client acknowledges that he/she has received relevant information and is aware of a final price expressed in currency of the bank card before making a payment.
5.1. The passenger shall be fully responsible for preparation of all the documents necessary for a voyage. The passenger shall read and fulfill all the requirements applicable in a country of destination in relation to execution of documents required when arriving, departing and also in case of a transit flight in order to follow all the route, procurement of visas (if required), valid passports, power of attorneys or other documents required for voyage with children and etc..

— for actions of the Carrier (change, cancel, reschedule, delay of a flight), for safety, loss or damage of luggage, cargo, objects of value and documents of the User (a passenger) during all the voyage.
