IST Travel accepts no liability for Client damages where IST Travel has fulfilled its Duty of Care to Clients by providing Products of a reasonable standard.

  • IST Travel accepts no liability if there has been no fault on the part of IST Travel or its suppliers, and the reason for the claimed damages was either the Client's fault or a result of unusual circumstances beyond the control of IST Travel by force majeure, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even with all due care.
