Travel Business Portal does not act as principal but makes arrangements with third-party vendors, such as, but not limited to airlines, hotels, car rental agencies, tour operators and consolidators, (each a "Travel Supplier") for travel-related services which include, without limitation, air transportation, lodging, and car rental (each a "Service Element").
By using this Site, you acknowledge that the rates offered by Travel Business Portal and affiliate companies are a result of negotiation between Travel Business Portal and the Travel Suppliers and include certain fees retained by them for their services, taxes and other charges. When booking with any Travel Supplier through this Site, you authorize Travel Business Portal and affiliate companies to book reservations or enter a contract on your behalf with Travel Suppliers for the total price displayed, including such fees and any applicable taxes or charges related to the Travel Supplier's or Travel Business Portal's services.

Travel Business Portal, in providing travel management services, does not endorse, guarantee or insure the products or services, which are provided by an external supplier, the financial position of such suppliers or the reimbursement to you from any loss as a result of the financial condition of such supplier. In the event that a supplier defaults prior to providing the service to you were a payment has been made, your sole recourse for a refund shall be the defaulting supplier, unless such loss was caused solely by Travel Business Portal. In those situations, in which a supplier defaults prior to providing services you may pursue any recourse against the supplier for a refund, as permitted by law or statute.
Except as expressly stated herein, Travel Business Portal assumes no responsibility for actions relating to travel services beyond the control of Travel Business Portal or its employees. Travel Business Portal is not responsible or liable for any act, error, omission, injury, loss, accident, damage, delay, nonperformance, irregularity, or any consequence thereof, which may be occasioned through neglect, or default or any other act or inaction of any Travel Supplier. Travel Business Portal shall not be liable for any fluctuation in price or change in schedule or equipment or accommodations for any travel service, which occurs subsequent to booking and payment for such service.

Travel Business Portal shall not be liable for the depiction of travel products and services made available by any supplier of travel products and services, including but not limited to photographs, listed amenities, ratings and discounts.
Travel Business Portal acts as a service that provides value added service to retail travel agents and consumers. Travel Business Portal has no control over and assumes no liability for the actions of the suppliers from whom it obtains travel products or services.
Travel Business Portal shall not be liable for final currency conversion or rates when paid after a travel reservation is made with us for international travel products and services. You agree and acknowledge that currency rates vary and any quoted price on the Site in local currency is a guideline, and not binding on the side in local currency is a guideline, and not binding on the travel supplier or us.
Once certain travel reservations are made and paid for they may be completely non-refundable or there may be a penalty involved in cancellation or seeking a refund from the supplier of travel products and services. Once tickets have been issued there may be a penalty involved for cancellations and refunds. We do not have control over printed prices on the tickets, although some tickets may have BT (bulk fare) printed on them, some may have a specific value on them, which may be different (lower or higher) than the fare collected.
Discounts offered may vary depending on a number of factors including airlines utilized, class of service, destination, time of year (low, mid or high season), advance notice provided, minimum stay requirements fulfilled and flight load.
Travel Business Portal does not guarantee, endorse, validate or promote other advertiser's products and services that are advertised on our Site.
By booking with us a contract may be formed between you and a Travel Supplier, and additional Terms & Conditions may apply to your booking and purchase of travel-related goods and services. You hereby agree to be bound by all the Terms & Conditions of purchase imposed by any Travel Supplier with whom you choose to contract, including, but not limited to, payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the Travel Supplier's rules and restrictions regarding availability and use of fares, products, or services. Some Travel Suppliers may require you to present a credit card or cash deposit upon check-in to cover additional expenses incurred during your stay or during the use of the reserved products or services. Such deposit is unrelated to any payment received by Travel Business Portal for your hotel, car or airline ticket booking. You understand that any violation of a Travel Supplier's rules and restrictions may result in the cancellation of your reservation(s), in denial of access to the respective Service Element or services, in your forfeiting any amount paid for such reservation(s), and/or in our debiting your account for any costs we incur as a result of such violation.
Certain customers may be eligible to receive a discount off cancellation, refund or ticket change service fees, as described in our Compassion Exception Policy (CEP) below:
*Immediate family is defined as: spouse, domestic partner, children, parents, siblings, grandparents, grandchildren, aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews. Eligibility applies whether the relationship is biological.
Please note: The above CEP only applies to Travel Business Portal's own cancellation, refund or ticket change service fees. Customers may still be responsible for airline and/or other supplier imposed penalties, as well as any fare difference. Travel Business Portal does not control the policies of these airlines and/or other suppliers.
In the unlikely event that you find a lower rate on Travel Business Portal or on any other Bangladeshi based website for the same itinerary within 24 hours of booking with Travel Business Portal, we will either cancel your current itinerary and provide you a full refund, or refund you the entire difference in price. You will need to provide documentation that all the elements of the lower offer, including, without limitation, the departure and arrival dates and locations, airline, class, fare, cancellation policy, hotel room, hotel rate, car class and any other material conditions are the same as the itinerary you booked with us and available for booking online. Once we've verified that the information provided meets the requirements of the BPG, we will process a full refund of the price difference between the lower offer and the price of the itinerary you booked with us, or, at your option, cancel the itinerary you booked with us and refund to you the entire amount paid. The following offers are not subject to this Best Price Guarantee: Military, Student, Government, Tour Operator Fares, Bulk Rate or an airline's "Web Only" fare. Please see complete Best Price Guarantee terms and conditions for full details.
You must email us at tbp@aotrek.com along with competitor's offer, name of competitor, and screenshots of flights actually available to be booked from a reputable Bangladesh website within twenty-four (24) hours after your Travel Business Portal booking to make a claim under the Best Price Guarantee. The lower rate must be available for booking at the time you contact us, as determined by our customer service representatives.
The Best Price Guarantee is available only if the lower priced offer matches exactly each and every element present in itinerary booked with us, - such as same, specific carrier or provider (including same class of service and refund policy), - the exact same dates and times of travel or service, the same airfare class, hotel room type, car class and any other material conditions as booked through Travel Business Portal. The comparison must be with the same product stand-alone through another website. The Best Price Guarantee is not available for bookings on websites where the carrier booking details are unknown until after purchase, such as an auction website or a website offering opaque fares. You must meet all requirements imposed by the lower price offer (if any), including, without limitation, residency, regional and age-related requirements. The interpretation given by Travel Business Portal to these rules is final and binding.
Comparison rates must be available to the general public online. The Best Price Guarantee applies only to prices both advertised and available to the general public on a Bengali/English-language website. For example, this does not include rates offered on membership program websites, corporate discounts or rates; group, charter, rewards program, incentive, meeting, convention, consolidator or interline prices; prices obtained via auction or similar process; or prices available only by using a coupon or other promotion not offered to the general public. In ordered to be considered by Travel Business Portal, the lower rate may not come from a website where you call to get the rate, or from an e-mail that you received.
All requests, including receipts, are subject to verification by Travel Business Portal. Travel Business Portal will not accept evidence of a lower price that cannot be independently confirmed by Travel Business Portal personnel. Travel Business Portal will also not verify any request that it believes, in its sole discretion, is the result of a printing or other error or is made fraudulently or in bad faith. Within approximately 7-10 working days of verification, Travel Business Portal will credit or refund the fare difference as stated in the "Best Price Guarantee."
Travel Business Portal reserves the right in its sole discretion to modify or discontinue the Best Price Guarantee or to restrict its availability to any person, at any time, for any or no reason, and without prior notice or liability to you. The terms that are in effect at the time of your booking will determine your eligibility under the Best Price Guarantee. No change in the Best Price Guarantee will affect any coupon that has already been issued to you. The failure by Travel Business Portal to enforce any provision of these Terms & Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
By using the Site, you agree to irrevocably waive any claim against Travel Business Portal, its subsidiaries or affiliates, and any of such party's officers, directors, managers, agents, contractors, or employees, and expressly agree that neither Travel Business Portal nor any of its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, managers, agents, contractors or employees, shall be held liable for:

We reserve the right to cancel your Travel Business Portal account and terminate your use of the Site if you violate any of the above prohibitions.
For your convenience, our use of the following terms in these Terms & Conditions shall have the meaning below:
"Service Element" - a singular product or service listed on the Site that can be booked independently of any other service. (e.g.: car, hotel, flight).
"Travel Supplier" - a vendor of one or more Service Elements. (e.g.: hotels, car suppliers, airlines). Travel Business Portal does not act as principal but makes arrangements with third-party vendor Travel Suppliers for Service Elements, all as defined above.
"Booking" - a negotiation process with the Travel Supplier carried out by you while using this Site for the purpose of obtaining one or more Service Elements that may result in a contract with the Travel Supplier at the time we receive full payment and accept your offer.
In order to complete a Booking the following steps are taken to ensure its validity:
When we place Service Elements on our Site, we are inviting you to make an offer for their purchase. You do not make this offer until you press "Book" on the payment page (entitled "Review Trip Details and Book") of the Site.
Once you have done so you have made Travel Business Portal an offer (which cannot be withdrawn if you change your mind) to purchase the relevant Service Element(s) from the relevant Travel Supplier(s) (your "Booking"). We are free to accept your offer on behalf of the relevant Travel Supplier or to reject it, at our sole discretion.
The Travel Business Portal email confirmation is NOT the contractual acceptance of the Booking, but merely an acknowledgement that we have received your offer. We will need to check the availability of the relevant Service Element(s).
If the relevant Service Element is available, your Booking will be processed. The contract pertaining to the relevant Booking is formed when payment in full has been received.
The contract between you and the relevant Travel Supplier will relate only to those Service Elements confirmed by email with ticket numbers in case of air or reservation numbers in case of hotels, cars or activities.
The terms of your Booking (such as price, availability and/or dates of travel) are not guaranteed until the contract is formed between you and the Travel Supplier and a ticket has been issued and/or a reservation has been made and confirmed by the Travel Supplier.
Please note that once you have completed the Booking stage you can only cancel or change the details (such as names or destinations) of your Booking at our sole discretion and in accordance with these Terms & Conditions.
These Booking processes will apply to any of our individual Service Element's Terms & Conditions set out below. The airline ticket Terms & Conditions, the hotel Terms & Conditions, the car rental Terms & Conditions, the attractions and services Terms & Conditions supplement any area not covered by the Booking process. We reserve the right to change the Booking process at any time, with changes automatically taking effect from the date such changes are posted on the Site.
At all times throughout your trip a government-issued photo ID is required for security checks at airports, hotels and car rental locations and may be required for attractions and other products as deemed necessary by the relevant Travel Suppliers.
In addition to the required government-issued ID as stated above, proof of citizenship (Passport) is required for international travel. Please note that it is your sole responsibility to ensure that you meet the passport, visa, and/or health requirements of the countries you wish to visit and those that you transit (even if it is for a simple flight change). Many countries require that your passport should be valid for a minimum period from the date of arrival into that country. For any questions regarding what the applicable minimum period is and any other conditions or passport/visa requirements for travel, you should contact the corresponding local consulate of the countries to which you are travelling.
Neither Travel Business Portal nor its affiliates accept any responsibility, and you will not be entitled to any refunds whatsoever, if you are denied boarding, delayed or deported due to non-fulfillment of the above.
Travel Business Portal reserves the right to correct errors in any advertised price and, if applicable, give you an option to either cancel the Booking or allow Travel Business Portal to collect an amount equal to any increase in price from your provided credit or debit card, prior to your departure.
Once you have made your Booking, you cannot transfer or change the name(s) or destination(s) listed in your Booking.
Your Booking will be fulfilled on the delivery date set out in your ticket information email or, if no delivery date is specified, then on the date the ticket is issued, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
The terms of this agreement incorporate by reference the terms of each airline's contract of carriage. Passengers may inspect the full text of the contract of carriage at each airline's airport or city ticket offices. Passengers have the right, upon request to the airlines, to receive free of charge by mail or other delivery service the full text of the contract of carriage. The incorporated terms of the contract of carriage may include: (1) Limits on the airline's liability for personal injury or death of passengers, and for loss, damage, or delay of goods and baggage, including fragile or perishable goods; (2) Claim restrictions, including time periods within which passengers must file a claim or bring an action against the airline for its acts or omissions or those of its agents; (3) Rights of the airline to change terms of the contract; (4) Rules about reconfirmation of reservations, check-in times, and refusal to carry; (5) Rights of the airline and limitations concerning delay or failure to perform service, including schedule changes, substitution of alternate airline or aircraft and rerouting.
Our total prices include all taxes and fees applicable to airfare, hotel accommodation, car rentals and activities included in your Booking, unless stated otherwise in your ticket information email or in these Terms & Conditions. Additional fuel surcharges, security, baggage, seat reservation, hotel incidentals, and other applicable service charges may apply which will be charged by the relevant Travel Supplier at time of check-in. You are solely responsible for any such additional charges due to the Travel Supplier. If you have any questions about such charges, please contact the relevant Travel Supplier directly.
Prices quoted also do not include any additional flight fuel surcharges or other surcharges, which may be imposed from time to time by the relevant Travel Supplier or authorities, all of which must be paid by you.
Payment must be made in full with a valid credit or debit card at the time of Booking. Travel Business Portal accepts all major credit or debit cards with a verifiable billing address.
You hereby authorize Travel Business Portal and its authorized third party to process the charge to the credit or debit card you provide to us for the total amount of your Booking.
You may be required by the relevant Travel Supplier(s) to present a valid credit or debit card at the time of check-in at the hotel and/or at the pick-up location of the car rental company to provide confirmation of authorized card usage and/or to secure any additional charges. The cardholder must be a traveler listed on your Booking.
All offers, prices, and conditions of sale may be subject to:
A reservation is not complete until confirmed/ticketed. To protect our customers, we verify with the credit/debit card company that the billing address and credit card verification number you provided to us is accurate and that your debit/charge will be accepted. Until such information is verified, the fare is subject to change. We are not responsible for any transaction that is declined based upon a credit/debit card that is declined by the issuing company or a travel provider or if, for any reason, the debit/credit card billing address and/or credit card verification number cannot be verified in a timely manner, nor are we responsible for any changes in fare or any other charges that may occur during our verification process. In the event the fare selected is not available an approval code may have been issued on your credit card. If the transaction is not completed the approval code may temporarily credit the amount from your bank account.
In addition to each Travel Supplier's cost and fees including Bank/Payment Gateway Charges, Travel Business Portal may charge a service fee as described below. All Travel Business Portal fees are charged on a per-person or per-ticket basis and are non-refundable.
Any and all changes made to the itinerary are restricted and are subject to airline fare rules, whichever is more restrictive; most of our tickets, hotels, cars, packages and cruises do not allow any date or name changes after the booking is completed. Travel Business Portal does not guarantee, and shall not be responsible for, any bookings or reservations made or confirmed to you in the event that the original itinerary has been changed by the supplier pursuant to customer's request or supplier's schedule changes.
Most of our airline tickets are 100% non-refundable. In certain cases, where the airline may allow cancellations, a credit may be valid towards a future ticket purchase by the same traveler on the same airline. Usually the credit issued by the airline supplier has a specific expiration date, after which it cannot be used. We encourage you to discuss additional restrictions attached to your credit with a customer service agent. All such bookings where the cancellation may be permitted must be cancelled prior to the scheduled departure time of the first flight segment by calling our customer service center. We do not guarantee any cancellation. When you are ready to make your new booking and wish to use your airline credit, you will be required to the pay fare difference (if any), applicable airline penalties and any applicable Travel Business Portal post-ticketing fees. All such changes are governed by each airline's fare rules, policies and procedures, which are not under our control.
No additional representation is made for our exchange fees except that an agent will assist you in locating your desired new flights and attempt to re-book the new flights based on availability and other factors.
As per our Compassion Exception Policy (CEP), we offer Special Discounts for Military, Natural Disasters, Bereavement, Customers with Visual Impairments, Senior Citizens and Youth. Please review our Compassion Exception Policy (CEP) in detail.
If your itinerary includes flights operated by more than one airline, please read carefully each such airline's terms and conditions, which can be found on each such airline's website. Each such airline will have its own restrictions, rules and fees. If one of these flights is affected by an airline change (e.g. cancellation or rescheduling) that causes a Customer to make changes to the other flight, the Customer may be responsible for any fees or ticket cost incurred for making changes to the unaffected flight. Such airlines may charge their own fees for changes, refunds, or if exchanges are requested. You are responsible for complying with each airline's terms and conditions, which may differ (for example, check-in times and limits on baggage size/weight). It is advisable you print your outbound and return portions of your e-ticket confirmation for all flights prior to travelling. You may be asked for proof of your return ticket at check-in.
Most of our airline tickets, hotels, pre-paid car rentals, vacation packages and service fees are non-refundable after 24 hours of booking. Trip protection insurance is refundable within 10 days of purchase if travel has not commenced and you have called our customer service center to cancel. All cancellations must be done over the phone only. We can accept refund requests only if the following conditions have been met:
We are unable to provide a specific time line for how long it may take for this requested refund to be processed. All refund requests are processed in a sequential format. Once you have provided our customer service agent with your cancellation request, we will then send you an email notification that your request has been received. This notification does not automatically qualify you for a refund. This only provides you with an acknowledgement of your request and provides you with a tracking number. Upon receipt of your request we will work with the suppliers such as airlines, hotels, car-rental companies to generate a waiver based on airline and other supplier rules and notify you of the supplier decision. Our services fees associated with the original travel reservation or booking are not refundable. Please note that we are dependent on the suppliers for receiving the requested refunds. Once the refund has been approved by the supplier it may take additional time for this to appear on your credit card statement. Generally, all suppliers will charge a penalty for refund. This entire process may take 60-90 days from receipt of your request to receiving credit on your statement. Apart from the airlines and other suppliers refund penalties, Travel Business Portal will charge a post-ticketing services fee, as applicable. All refund fees are charged on per ticket per person basis. These fees will only be assessed if a refund has been authorized by the supplier or a waiver has been received and when the airline/supplier rules permit such refunds. If such refund is not processed by the supplier, we will refund you our post-ticketing service fees applicable to your agent assisted refund request, but not our booking fees for the original travel reservation or booking.
As per our Compassion Exception Policy (CEP), we offer Special Discounts for U.S. Military, Natural Disasters, Bereavement, Customers with Visual Impairments, Senior Citizens and Youth. Please review our Compassion Exception Policy (CEP) in detail.
Cancellation Password - For your security, bookings may only be cancelled over the phone, and not by email or web chat. When requesting Travel Business Portal to cancel a booking on your behalf, our agents will send you an email with a unique Cancellation Password to the e-mail you entered when the booking was created. Please provide the Cancellation Password to our agents when asked, in order to complete your cancellation request. If you cannot access your email and provide your Cancellation Password, we may not be able to process your request for cancellation. The Cancellation Password will expire within 3 hours of issuance. If your Cancellation Password expired before we were able to process your request, please call us back to obtain a new Cancellation Password.
We reserve the right to decline any transaction that may have had an error in promo code value even after the booking is created and booking receipt is issued.
The promo code offer is on our transaction service fees only, Discount varies based on the transaction service fees charged for that ticket or travel reservation, and the value of discount will be up to the amount of the service fees charged for that transaction or the promo code's value per transaction whichever is less. You must use the promo code at check-out to redeem this offer. This offer may be revised or dis-continued without notice.
We accept credit cards and debit cards issued in Bangladesh and several other countries as listed in the billings section.
We also accept Cash in Office, Bkash, Online Bank Transfer, etc. methods as well.
Please note: all hotel, car rental and tour/activity bookings are only confirmed upon delivery of complete confirmation details to the email you provided with your reservation. In some cases, pre-payment may be required to receive confirmation.
In order to provide you with further protection, when certain transactions are determined to be high-risk by our systems, we will not process such transactions unless our credit card verification gateway team has determined that it's safe to process them. In order to establish validity of such transactions, we may contact you or your bank.
Most tickets are electronic (e-Tickets), however with certain itineraries where an e-Ticket is not available a paper ticket will be issued. If an e-Ticket could not be issued for a particular reservation or if a delivery was being made of another product or service, Travel Business Portal will send the paper ticket, product or service through a secure mode of delivery (a reputable carrier company). Travel Business Portal does not assume any responsibility for the fault of the delivery company. We will attempt to redeliver but do not provide any guarantees for redelivery on time. If you provide an incorrect address, then you may have to pay excess fees to the delivery company for alteration of the address. If an e-Ticket is generated the ticket information will be available on the Site.
If your credit card declines at the time of processing your transaction, we will make all efforts to notify you by email within 72 hours. The transaction will not be processed if your credit card has been declined. The fare and any other booking details are not guaranteed. If there is a fare change you have a right to cancel the booking at no cost to you. There will be no service fees charged for this.
Please note that your seats, meals, frequent flyer and other special requests are requests only. The airline reserves the right to apply any revisions to the requested seat allocation without notification. All requests should be verified with the airline.
