Open Voucher Validation. – Al Jaziira Travel Tours offers its customer the option to order an open voucher for a specific Activity, Attraction, Tour and Excursion. The open voucher can only be used for the specific Activity, Attraction, Tour or Excursion for which it has been purchased as detailed on the order confirmation and on the voucher itself. Please note that the Open Voucher is only valid for use for the relevant activity for which it was purchased and is valid for a period of 3 months from the day of its purchase. Meaning, the activity must begin during the 3 months validation period of the open voucher = must go on the activity within a maximum of 3 months from the date of its purchase.
In case the customer fails in using the open voucher during the period of 3 months, and fails to go on the Attraction, Activity, Tour or Excursion for which it has been purchased, the open voucher will no longer be of any use or value and it will be void. In case of a void open voucher the customer will not be entitled to receive any refund nor compensation against the payment made to purchase the voucher.
In case the customer still wishes to use the open voucher, but will not be able to within the valid 3-month period, they should inform Al Jaziira Travel Tours before the expiration date of the voucher and the voucher date may be extended for a 20% supplement (applicable on the amount paid). This is why we strongly encourage our customers not to wait for the last moment in order to use the open voucher.
Using an Open Voucher for Reserving an Activity. In order for us to process your reservation request in full and provide you with the activity on your preferred date, we strongly advise that you will place your request for reserving the activity a minimum of 20 days prior to the date on which you would like to go/use the activity. All reservations are subjected to availability. In case you request to reserve an Activity, Attraction, Tour or Excursion for a specific date less than 10 days prior to the date on which you would like to go/use the activity, Al Jaziira Travel Tours cannot guarantee that the customer’s reservation will be confirmed or will be done successfully. Accordingly, for late reservations requests made during the period of the last 10 days of the open voucher validation period (referring to the last 10 days out of the 3 months period), Al Jaziira Travel Tours, cannot guarantee that these reservations will be confirmed or done successfully. In case Al Jaziira Travel Tours will not be able to confirm such a late reservations requests, and due to this an open voucher will not be used during the period of 3 months of its validation, the customer will not be entitle to any refund nor compensation against the payment made to purchase this voucher. This is because it is in the customer responsibility to reserve the activity on an earlier stage, while providing Al Jaziira Travel Tours at least 10 days in order to confirm the booking. This is why we strongly encourage our customers not to wait for the last moment in order to use the open voucher.
Reserving the Activity on a specific preferred date. In order for us to process your order request in full and provide you with the activity you desire on your preferred specific date, we strongly advise that you will order the activity a minimum of 20 days prior to the date on which you would like to go/use the activity.
