At Classic Fares, operated by Flight Fare Booking Inc., our reservation and ticketing process is designed to provide customers with clear travel information, material booking conditions, pricing information and an opportunity to authorize a transaction before it is completed.
Classic Fares is an independent travel services platform and travel-services intermediary.
Depending on the travel service requested, Classic Fares may obtain travel options through:
Classic Fares currently uses three primary reservation methods:
1. Online Flight Booking
2. Quote-Based Car Rental & Cruise Reservations
3. Booking and Travel Assistance by Phone
The exact process depends on the travel product and service requested.
Eligible flight reservations may be searched and booked through Classic Fares online booking functionality.
Travel inventory is dynamic. A flight appearing in search results is not guaranteed to remain available until the applicable reservation and ticketing process has been successfully completed.
Customers begin by entering their travel requirements.
Search information may include:
Classic Fares may obtain available flight options through travel-industry sources including suppliers, contracted consolidators, GDS systems, APIs, bulk or negotiated inventory and other authorized distribution sources.
Available options may be displayed based on the customer's search criteria.
Depending on the itinerary and available information, flight results may include:
Customers should review the selected itinerary carefully before continuing.
Travel inventory may originate from several legitimate travel-industry sources.
However:
Classic Fares determines the retail price offered to its customers.
The retail price offered through Classic Fares may therefore differ from:
Unless Classic Fares expressly offers a particular price-match or lowest-price promotion, a displayed Classic Fares price should not be interpreted as a representation that it is the lowest price available through every sales channel.
After reviewing available options, the customer selects the preferred itinerary.
Customers should consider more than price.
Material information may include:
Certain low-cost, basic, bulk, private, negotiated, consolidator or specially sourced fares may carry more restrictive conditions.
After selecting a flight, customers provide information required for the reservation.
Depending on the itinerary, this may include:
Passenger names should correspond appropriately with the traveler's applicable government-issued travel document.
Customers should carefully verify spelling before submitting the reservation.
Airline rules concerning name corrections vary, and post-ticketing corrections may:
Before authorizing payment, customers should have an opportunity to review material information applicable to the selected transaction.
This may include:
Customers should not authorize the transaction until they are satisfied with the information presented.
Certain flight options available through Classic Fares may originate through:
Depending on the specific fare, restrictions may include:
Not every bulk, private, negotiated or consolidator fare is automatically non-refundable or non-changeable.
The conditions applicable to the specific fare selected by the customer govern.
Material restrictions applicable to the selected fare should be presented or made available before purchase.
Nothing concerning a restricted fare eliminates a mandatory refund, cancellation or passenger right that applicable law does not permit to be waived.
After reviewing the selected itinerary, pricing and material conditions, the customer decides whether to proceed.
Classic Fares may document authorization through an appropriate method, including where applicable:
A preliminary search, quotation, itinerary discussion or incomplete checkout does not constitute authorization for a materially different transaction.
The customer authorizes the agreed transaction amount.
Classic Fares does not treat authorization for one price as authorization for a materially higher or otherwise materially different price.
If the applicable price materially changes before completion, the revised amount should be presented to the customer before additional payment is processed.
The customer may:
Depending on the transaction structure, payment may be processed by one or more authorized parties.
These may include:
In certain transactions, the agreed total may appear as more than one charge.
Where split processing is used, the combined authorized amount should correspond to the total amount agreed to by the customer, except where the customer later separately authorizes another service or transaction.
A flight reservation request and an issued airline ticket are not necessarily the same thing.
After customer authorization, the applicable transaction may be submitted for reservation and ticketing.
Ticket issuance may be completed through:
A payment authorization, booking request, itinerary or reservation record does not by itself guarantee successful ticket issuance.
The flight should be treated as ticketed after the applicable ticketing process has been completed and appropriate confirmation has been provided.
Following successful processing and ticket issuance, customers may receive confirmation information.
Depending on the reservation, this may include:
Customers should review the confirmation promptly.
If you believe information is incorrect, contact Classic Fares as soon as reasonably possible:
Air travel inventory can change rapidly.
Between initial search and successful ticketing, changes may occur to:
If a material change occurs before completion, Classic Fares may present:
The customer is not required to accept a materially different transaction.
Where additional payment is required for a materially different transaction, customer authorization should be obtained before processing that additional amount.
Customers may also contact Classic Fares for assisted flight reservations.
Telephone booking can be useful for:
The customer provides travel requirements to the Classic Fares representative.
Information may include:
The Classic Fares representative may search eligible travel-industry sources for available flight options.
These sources may include:
The representative may present one or more available options based on the customer's requirements.
Before the customer authorizes the selected transaction, the representative should communicate material information reasonably relevant to the selected option.
This may include:
The customer decides whether to proceed.
Classic Fares may request appropriate confirmation that the customer wishes to proceed.
Depending on the transaction and process, authorization may be documented through:
Where additional electronic confirmation is required, ticketing may remain pending until that authorization is received.
After customer approval, payment is processed or facilitated according to the applicable transaction structure.
Authorization for the agreed transaction does not constitute authorization for an unrelated or materially different charge.
If a material price increase occurs before ticket issuance, the customer should be informed and given an opportunity to accept or decline the revised transaction.
After authorization, Classic Fares submits or facilitates the applicable transaction for ticketing through the appropriate travel-industry source.
The reservation remains subject to successful ticket issuance.
Following successful issuance, the applicable confirmation information is provided through email or another agreed communication method.
Customers should verify:
Classic Fares handles multi-city flight reservations by telephone.
For multi-city reservations:

Multi-city travel may involve:
A Classic Fares travel professional can research available options based on the customer's requirements.
The same general principles apply:
Classic Fares provides car rental booking assistance through a request-a-quote process.
Submitting a car rental request does not itself create a confirmed rental reservation.
For car rental assistance:
1-855-529-7002
Customers may provide:
Classic Fares may source available rental options through:
Availability is dynamic.
Customers may receive one or more available options.
A quote may include available information concerning:
A quotation is not a confirmed reservation.
The customer reviews the proposed rental option and decides whether to proceed.
Submitting the original quote request does not itself authorize Classic Fares to charge the customer for a rental reservation.
Where payment is required, the customer should accept the applicable price and material booking conditions before the transaction is completed.
After customer acceptance, Classic Fares submits or facilitates the applicable reservation request through the relevant provider or supplier.
Availability may remain subject to supplier confirmation until the booking is finalized.
Following successful supplier confirmation, applicable reservation information is provided to the customer.
This may include:
A confirmed rental reservation does not eliminate requirements imposed by the rental provider.
At pickup, the provider may require:
Classic Fares does not control the rental provider's final vehicle-release decision.
Classic Fares provides cruise reservation assistance through a request-a-quote process.
Submitting a cruise inquiry does not create a confirmed cruise reservation.
For cruise reservation assistance:
1-855-529-7027
Customers may provide information including:
Classic Fares may research eligible cruise options through:
Availability and pricing may change during the research process.
Depending on availability, customers may receive one or more cruise options.
A quotation may include:
Receiving a quote does not itself create a cruise reservation.
Customers should carefully review the applicable cruise conditions before proceeding.
Cruise reservations may have significant cancellation restrictions, particularly as the departure date approaches.
Depending on the selected cruise product, conditions may involve:
The actual conditions applicable to the selected cruise reservation govern.
The customer decides whether to accept the applicable:
An inquiry or quote is not authorization to complete a materially different transaction.
Where required, the customer authorizes the applicable deposit or payment.
Any separate Classic Fares professional service fee applicable to the transaction should be disclosed before customer authorization.
Classic Fares submits or facilitates the accepted cruise reservation through the applicable supplier or provider.
A cruise reservation should be treated as confirmed after the applicable supplier confirms the booking and confirmation information is provided.
Customers should review:
Contact Classic Fares promptly if you believe there is an error.
The following should not automatically be treated as confirmation of a travel reservation:
The applicable travel product should be treated as confirmed only after the relevant reservation or ticketing process has been successfully completed and appropriate confirmation has been provided.
Payment authorization may be one step in the reservation process.
It does not necessarily mean that:
Supplier confirmation and successful fulfillment may still be required.
If an authorized transaction cannot be completed, the applicable payment or authorization will be handled according to the transaction circumstances, payment status and applicable law.
Travel inventory may change rapidly.
Until confirmation, changes may occur to:
Where a material change occurs, Classic Fares may offer the revised option.
The customer is not required to accept a materially different price or travel product.
Before approving a transaction, customers should carefully review the available material information.
Depending on the product, this may include:
If information appears incorrect, do not knowingly proceed without addressing the issue.
Customers should retain their confirmation information.
A flight confirmation may include:
Customers should verify the itinerary promptly.
A car rental confirmation may include:
Customers remain responsible for satisfying provider requirements at pickup.
A cruise confirmation may include:
Customers should review these conditions carefully because cruise cancellation penalties can increase as the sailing date approaches.
Once a reservation has been confirmed, requested changes are subject to the applicable product conditions.
A requested change may involve:
Where a new Classic Fares professional service fee applies, the applicable fee should be disclosed before the customer authorizes that paid service.
Customers should review the Classic Fares Post-Booking & Post-Ticketing Service Fee Policy for additional information.
Customers wishing to cancel an eligible reservation should contact Classic Fares promptly.
Cancellation eligibility depends upon the applicable:
A cancellation request should not be considered completed until appropriate cancellation confirmation has been received.
Refund eligibility may depend upon:
A product described as non-refundable for voluntary cancellation may have no refundable product value after confirmation.
A voluntary non-refundable condition does not override a mandatory refund or passenger right arising under applicable law.
Customers should review the Classic Fares Refund & Cancellation Policy for additional information.
Classic Fares may provide independent professional travel consultation for eligible reservations originally booked through another provider.

A Classic Fares professional consultation fee may apply.
Where a fee applies:
Payment for professional consultation compensates Classic Fares for the agreed service.
It does not guarantee a particular outcome from an independent travel provider.
Where Classic Fares submits, facilitates or assists with a request involving an independent provider, Classic Fares cannot guarantee that the provider will:
