Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of the DS Bookings website (ds-bookings.com) and the travel assistance services we provide. By accessing our website or using our services, you agree to be bound by these terms.

1. About Our Service

DS Bookings is an independent third-party travel assistance and consulting company. We are not an official representative of any railway company, airline, or hotel. We assist travelers in planning and booking train journeys through our network of third-party travel suppliers and consolidators.

2. Eligibility

By using our services, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal authority to enter into this agreement. If booking on behalf of others, you confirm you have their authority to do so.

3. Booking & Reservations

All bookings made through DS Bookings are subject to availability from our third-party suppliers. A booking is confirmed only upon receipt of full payment and issuance of a booking confirmation. We reserve the right to cancel any booking in cases of pricing errors or supplier unavailability.

• Confirmation is sent via email within 24 hours of booking
• All bookings are subject to the supplier's own terms and conditions
• DS Bookings acts as an intermediary, not the actual service provider
• Prices are subject to change until booking is fully confirmed and paid

4. Pricing & Fees

All prices quoted include applicable taxes, fees, and our service charges. DS Bookings charges a service/consultation fee for our assistance, which will be clearly disclosed before you confirm any booking. We are not responsible for fare changes by the underlying travel supplier after confirmation.

5. Payment

We accept major credit cards, debit cards, and other payment methods as disclosed at checkout. All transactions are processed securely. By making a payment, you authorize DS Bookings to charge the stated amount to your payment method.

7. Limitation of Liability

DS Bookings is not liable for any delays, cancellations, changes, or service failures caused by the actual travel service provider. Our total liability to you shall not exceed the service fees paid to DS Bookings. We are not responsible for any indirect, consequential, or incidental damages.
