MTA is not responsible for acts or omissions of Suppliers or their failure to provide services or adhere to their own schedules. MTA assumes no responsibility for and shall not be liable for any refund, personal injury, property damage, or other loss, accident, delay, inconvenience, or irregularity which may be caused by: (1) any defaults, wrongful or negligent acts, or omissions of the Suppliers; (2) any defect in or failure of any vehicle, craft, equipment, or instrumentality owned, operated, or otherwise provided by the Suppliers; or (3) any wrongful or negligent acts or omissions on the part of any other party not under MTA's control. You hereby waive and release MTA from any and all claims arising out of or attributable to any matter covered in this Agreement. You hereby agree to submit any other claims related to your use of MTA’s services within 30 days after the return of your trip. You agree that the courts in DuPage County, Illinois will be the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for all claims brought by you or MTA, and you hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Illinois without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdiction). YOU AND MTA IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

On behalf of our clients, MTA will send a “complimentary room upgrade and/or special room requests” prior to your departure date; however, requests of any kind are not guaranteed until confirmed by hotel at check-in. This Agreement constitutes the sole and entire agreement of you and MTA with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.

PAYMENT & FEES

I authorize My Travel Agent, Inc. to charge my credit card for agreed payment/s
My Travel Agent, Inc. has a $100.00 per reservation cancellation fee for services rendered that is not covered with any Supplier's insurance. The $100.00 cancellation fee must be paid before any cancellations or changes are made to your reservation. We will charge the credit card on file if you wish to cancel. If your reservation was paid in cash, we will not be able to make any cancellations until the cancellation fee is received. We strongly recommend that you use a credit card for your purchase, so that you can exercise your rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act if you do not receive the services you purchased. As our client, you hereby appoint MTA to act on your behalf for the purpose of signing all documents necessary to purchase and issue airline tickets, tours, cruises, and hotel guarantees for late arrival. You authorize MTA to sign credit card authorizations for said purchases whenever we receive an Internet booking request reasonably believed to be from you or someone acting on your behalf, requesting those tickets be charged to your credit card account. You agree that you will pay for all such purchases and will not hold us responsible for any of our actions pursuant to this Agreement.

REFUNDS

Availability of refunds for unused travel reservations will vary with the type of reservation and the point at which your reservations were not used. Service fees for refunds may be applied. In the event of any Supplier bankruptcy, you should seek refunds directly from the Supplier or bankruptcy court. The refund process can take several weeks from the date of your written notice to MTA that you wish to cancel. In most cases, vacation deposits are non-refundable unless travel insurance was purchased. The cost to purchase travel insurance is typically never refundable. If a refund is applicable, Suppliers refund terms may vary, and refund may be provided in the form of future travel credit or voucher.
