Article: Travel Documents

A traveler traveling abroad must have a valid document (i.e., a passport or another valid appropriate document, which must be valid for at least six months after returning to the country), with which they can enter a specific country. If the country to which the traveler is traveling conditions entry on its territory with a certain validity period of the travel document before the validity expires on the day of entry, the traveler must pay attention to these provisions themselves and act according to the requirements of that country. REM Travel LLC is not responsible for any inconvenience or forced interruption of travel due to this title. It is also the duty of the traveler to obtain visas for countries they are traveling to if such countries require entry visas and to perform vaccinations that are required for these countries. In case of refusal of entry into the country due to unregulated documents or other barriers, the traveler bears all the costs themselves.

At the reservation of individual products, the traveler provides data that must fully match the data in official documents such as a passport and identity card; the traveler is obligated to carry these in accordance with regulations on crossing the state border and appropriate foreign legislative acts. If incorrect data causes delays, additional costs, or interruption of travel, the traveler alone is responsible for all incurred costs. If a traveler loses documents during travel or they are stolen, but are necessary for continuing the journey or for returning to the homeland, the traveler must obtain new ones at their own expense. If a traveler must interrupt their journey due to loss or theft of documents, they are not entitled to any reimbursement of expenses.

At the time of reservation, the traveler must provide all details as published in valid travel documents, present documents if such a requirement of the individual airline, and pay any reservation costs. Reservation conditions depend on the terms dictated by the individual airline for the selected type of airline ticket; these conditions are conveyed to the traveler, who decides based on the information obtained.

Some airlines offer reservations on a waiting list. If such an offer is available, the traveler is informed about the terms of such a reservation and must adhere to them if they accept the offer.

Article: Baggage

In air transport, the airline alone is responsible for baggage, based on the regulations that apply in international air passenger transport. Claims for lost or damaged baggage are addressed by the traveler to the carrier themselves. For the transport of special baggage, such as bicycles, surfboards, golf equipment, etc., the traveler must pay a surcharge to the carrier, usually at the airport upon departure. In any case, it is mandatory to announce the transport of such baggage already at the time of reservation, but the air carrier still reserves the right to refuse transport of such baggage due to limited capacity limitations. All costs or damage that may arise due to this are borne by the traveler themselves. Transport of baggage up to a certain weight determined by the carrier is free of charge. In air transport, the traveler has the right to free transport of a certain weight of baggage, according to the carrier’s provisions, and each additional kilogram is paid by the traveler themselves on-site in the appropriate currency, or according to the provisions of the airline. Children up to two years old do not have the right to free baggage transport. In air transport, the airline alone is responsible for baggage, based on the regulations that apply in international air passenger transport. For questions regarding exact rules for allowed baggage and exact prices of additional baggage, contact avio@poslovnapotovanja.com or call 01 235 53 31. In the case of lost baggage, the traveler fills out the PIR form of the airline that performed the transport, and hands the completed form to the representative of the airline, keeping one copy for themselves. Based on the form, the airline compensates according to the regulations that apply in international passenger transport. REM Travel LLC is not responsible for the theft or damage of the traveler’s baggage or other personal items, valuables, and documents from transport vehicles such as planes, buses, or other transport means. Likewise, REM Travel LLC is not responsible for any claims, losses, damage, costs, or expenses in the event of injury, accident, or death, injury or loss of baggage or other property, dissatisfaction, disappointment, nervousness, or frustration that may arise due to: – the mistake of another party; – mechanical failures, acts of government, weather, or other factors over which REM Travel LLC has no influence; – the failure of the traveler to obtain all necessary documents; – the traveler’s inability or inattention to follow instructions, including but not limited to check-in, check-out, baggage management; – cancellations or changes in the travel offer for any reason; – any physical limitations or health issues the traveler may have.
