Penalty Calculation Rules
If the amount of cancellation charges within the tariff exceeds the price of the booked service, the agency repays a penalty equal to the service price to a tour operator.

If the amount of cancellation charges within the tariff is less than the price of the booked service, the agency repays a penalty at the rate which is set within the tariff to a tour operator.

Example А

Assume that the tariff settings include a fixed penalty of EUR 100, and an agency books service for EUR 50.

Open

In this case, if the service is canceled within the period of applied cancellation charges, the agency repays the tour operator a penalty which is equal to the payment for the booked service (EUR 50).

Example B

Assume that the tariff settings include a fixed penalty of EUR 20, and the agency books service for EUR 50.

In this case, if the service is canceled within the period of applied cancellation charges, the agency repays the tour operator a penalty that is set within the tariff, which is 20 EUR.
