2. Each Booking request shall be treated as an offer to enter into a formal legally binding contract on these terms & conditions which will be deemed to have been accepted by us only when we have transmitted to you our confirmation of the reservation.  It is your responsibility to read any documentation and special conditions accompanying the Booking and to ensure, in particular, that your staff are aware of the points noted as being the specific responsibility of the Client.
3. Booking requests will be invoiced according to our tariff current at the time the booking is confirmed to you.

You may only use the FORE FOREREZ SYSTEM and XML Interface for FIT sales (bookings of 9 or fewer persons) only.  Booking requests for more than 9 people must be sent to our groups department by email.  If you attempt to flout this rule by splitting groups to make them appear as FIT sales, hotels will be within their rights to levy charges for group cancellation or otherwise, for which you will be liable. We may cancel bookings you have added to our system, if they appear to us to be group bookings and not genuine FIT Bookings.
7. Bookings may be made only for bona fide reservations.  We may cancel bookings when they appear to us to have been made with the intention to hold space.

8. Bookings may be confirmed with a gross, commissionable rate. In such event, our confirmation will include details of the commission due to you.

 Cancellations

1. When a booking, not made via the FOREREZ SYSTEM or XML Interface, is cancelled at your request by FORE, we will send you a confirmation of cancellation.  You must inform us if you do not receive this confirmation as failure to do so may result in us charging for a non-arrival.

2. From time to time a hotel will be unable to accept a confirmed Booking (a “book-out”).  We will always do our best to avoid book-outs but where it happens we will seek to provide you with a suitable alternative.  We are not able to guarantee in all cases that alternative accommodation booked will be of the same standard or in the same location.

Part B: Special Terms for Hotel Bookings

Making Bookings

1. We will always try your requested hotel first.  If we cannot confirm it we will, whenever possible, confirm an alternative.  It is your responsibility to cancel or amend such alternatives if you do not approve them.  Failure to cancel an alternative that is not acceptable will result in non-arrival charges.  We will only confirm an alternative if your requested hotel is not available.  We will not confirm an alternative if you have told us you will only accept your requested hotel.
2. Special requests to hotels such as non-smoking, adjoining or interconnecting rooms, will be passed on but cannot be guaranteed.
3. Disabled rooms usually have wheelchair access but do not necessarily include features for the seriously disabled.
4. If you ask us to book extra space on a confirmed booking but we cannot do so, we will cancel the rooms held and make a new booking for the full reservation at a new hotel, unless you tell us you will not accept another hotel. In this case we would reject the request for extra space.
5. When you wish to add nights to confirmed bookings, you must modify the original booking; do not book the extra nights as a new item.
6. Hotels are under renovation from time to time and will take all possible steps to limit disruption to their guests.  If a hotel is carrying out renovations whilst a guest is resident, this will not entitle you to a refund.
7. If we specifically advise of renovation work, dates may be provided but these may be subject to change and we are not always notified.  FORE will not be held accountable for complaints concerning renovations that extend beyond the date originally advised.
8. In most hotels the normal earliest check in time is 1400 hrs but in some, especially in the USA, it may be as late as 1600hrs.
9. We guarantee only the first night of a booking (unless otherwise advised at time of confirmation); hotels may release rooms if the traveller has not arrived by 0500hrs (local time) following the arrival date.
10. Triple and quad rooms may consist of twin or double bed/s plus extra bed, or two double beds.  In some hotels, all triple rooms are doubles with an extra bed.  Most hotels do not have one full size bed for each guest in their triple or quad rooms. If an extra bed is required, an additional charge may be applied which should be paid directly to the hotel.
11. In USA and Canada twins/doubles are defined by the number of occupants and not the type of bed i.e. if a twin is confirmed hotels may provide a double (with ONE bed) instead as both sleep 2 people. Passengers may request separate beds upon reservation, however, separate beds are not guaranteed.  Triples and quads are not made up of single beds, they will generally contain two double beds.  Most hotels cannot add additional beds to make a triple or quad but rollaway beds may be available for an additional charge.
12. Bookings must not be made with fictitious names to hold space. If you do not book with the correct name you may receive non-arrival charges.
13. In the event you make a double (duplicate) booking and wish to correct this, please ensure you flag a remark to FORE stating “Double booking, please make sure hotel holds booking ID.. (providing the reference of the booking you wish to keep)”, before sending the cancellation to FORE. At the same time, you should also send the booking that you wish to keep with a remark stating “ We have cancelled a double booking, please make sure that the hotel holds room(s) under this reference.” FORE will then reconfirm it with the hotel.
14. Some hotels have separate rates for day use only which will be identified by “Day Let” in the hotel name.  Day let rates cannot be used for overnight stay bookings and do not include breakfast. Hotels may charge their published rate on departure if a traveller stays beyond the Day Let period. 

Rates and charges

1. All quoted rates are per room (with private bath or shower unless shown as otherwise) and include breakfast (unless otherwise specified), service charges and government taxes.  The applicable currency is displayed.  Where different prices are charged for different days of the week, the days on which rates apply are shown against each rate period.
2. Trade fair prices shown in our tariff will supersede prices outside trade fair periods.
3. Certain periods (e.g., religious holidays, New Year, major sporting events and others) may attract higher prices in some cities.  These are not strictly trade fairs but during these periods our rates may be close to or even above the published rates, and they should be treated in the same way as trade fair periods.
4. If the child supplement shows as N/A, bookings should be made for a triple room and will be charged at the full rate for three adults.  Child supplements can only be added to the twin or double room rate to obtain the price for a room with two adults and one child.  The supplements will apply to children between the ages of 2-12 years (unless a different age range is specified).  Child supplements will not be available if the child's age is not specified at the time of booking and we will charge for three adults in a triple room if this information is not supplied. Cots/cribs for babies are only suitable for those under 2 years. While cots may show as available at the time of booking, they are subject to availability upon check in.
5. Some hotels offer different rates (in singles for example) depending on the total number of rooms booked.
6. In some hotels no additional bedding is provided for a child where the child is either free or at a reduced price and breakfast may be charged for the child on departure.  If a child requires a bed of their own you must request a triple and no child discount will apply.
7. We may notify you of changes to the tariffs of certain hotels from time to time. 
8. We will not honour any rate you claim we have given to you over the telephone.
9. If a hotel levies an energy surcharge or a resort fee the traveller must pay such charges directly to the hotel.
10. If a hotel levies a local telephone service charge (to allow travellers to make unlimited local calls from their room) it must be paid by the traveller when departing from the hotel.
11. Any promotions for free or discounted nights based on a minimum night stay do not apply during trade fair periods.
12. Some hotels have floating published rates that change daily.  We will not pay refunds or accept as a reason for non-payment, that our rate was, on the day, close to or above the hotel's published rate.
13. Most hotels require a major credit card to be provided upon check-in to cover incidentals.  In the absence of a credit card, a cash deposit may be required.  All extras incurred by travellers must be paid directly to the hotel before their departure; FORE will not be responsible for travellers' personal hotel charges.

Country-specific information

1. Hotels in North America will only accept guests under the age of 21 years if accompanied by an adult.
2. Ryokans are traditional style Japanese hotels based on traditional architecture. Local Japanese customs (such as wearing a Kimono and not wearing shoes) will be required, meals are Japanese and staff may have poor knowledge of any language other than Japanese.
3. Tourists arriving at their first hotel on a visit to Russia may have to pay a tourist tax.

Trade Fair Periods

1. During some trade fairs our prices may be above hotels' published rates.  Should any trade fair dates change or new trade fair rates apply, we will notify you of such changes and invoice you at the revised rate for all future bookings.
2. Supplements charged by hotels during trade fair periods may be advised at the time of confirmation.
3. You may be given cancellation deadlines and we are unable to remind you of these.  The responsibility for cancelling by the specified date will be yours.  If you do not cancel in time you will be liable for full charges in accordance with these conditions.
4. Some hotels will not accept amendments to trade fair Bookings once confirmed.  We will advise you of this before confirmation.

Vouchers

1. Unless you have advised us otherwise, we will invoice you for the number of nights stated on your voucher or on the hotel's invoice to us (whichever is the greater) regardless of the number of nights actually used by the traveller.  If the traveller departs early, some hotels, particularly in USA/Canada, will charge for all nights booked, or a fixed charge in addition to the number of nights actually used.  In order to avoid disputes about charges, you must ensure that the traveller obtains from the hotel a written confirmation of the departure date and time, if leaving before the confirmed departure date.
2. For some hotels the voucher must state that payment is by our local agent, where our confirmation indicates the handling agent's name, together with the handling agent's own reference number which will be in our confirmation.
3. In the USA/Canada, if the reservation is for more than one room and if travellers have different names, all travellers' names must be printed on the voucher.  Names such as “TBA” or “X & Party” will not be accepted.  If travellers are arriving at different times, they must each carry their own voucher.  They may also be charged direct if the voucher does not carry the booking reference we have confirmed.
4. All hotels are advised that travellers may arrive without a voucher and that we will pay them based on our confirmation.
5. Notwithstanding 16.4 above, in the USA/Canada travellers may not be allowed to check-in without a voucher or may be charged directly if they fail to present a valid voucher.

Cancellations

1. Cancellations, outside  trade fair periods, must be received in the FORE office to which you send your requests via FOREREZ SYSTEM 2 day prior to arrival.  Some hotels require a longer period of cancellation than this to avoid charges. Such periods will be shown in the tariff (under special conditions) or on the Booking.  In all cases the cancellation period indicated in the Booking will prevail.
2. Bookings made during trade fair periods or special events cannot be cancelled or amended after they have been reconfirmed or after the cancellation deadline has passed without incurring cancellation charges.
3. If any part of a stay falls in a trade fair period, the special conditions and related charges will be applied to all nights booked.  For cancellations other than during trade fair periods, we will charge a cancellation fee of a minimum of one night for non-arrival and/or late cancellation. 
4. If your client or agent claims to have cancelled a Booking directly with a hotel, a minimum of one night's charge will be levied if the hotel later charges FORE.
5. If we invoice you for a non-arrival but the hotel later confirms the traveller did stay we will raise a supplementary invoice for the additional nights which you must pay. 

 Meals

1. From time to time we may have promotions for free or discounted nights based on a minimum night stay.  Occasionally the offer may stipulate that meals are not included in the offer.  If meals are taken during the offer period they will be charged to the traveller by the hotel, usually on departure.
2. The type of breakfast included in the rates for each hotel is indicated by a letter code as follows:
