Why did the price change after I clicked to the partner site?
Prices can change quickly due to availability, demand, or updates from booking partners, which is normal across all travel platforms. We show the most recent price we receive, but the partner site always confirms the final price before you complete your booking so you can review everything clearly before paying. Do prices include taxes and extra fees?
Taxes and extra fees can vary depending on the destination and the booking partner, since local rules and pricing policies differ worldwide.

Cancellation and change policies are set by the partner site and the property you book with. You will see the specific conditions during booking so you can choose options that match your needs. How do refunds work?
Refunds are handled by the partner website where you completed your booking and follow their policies. You can find refund details in your booking confirmation or by contacting their support team. Who do I contact if I have a problem with my booking?
