Please note that the deposit and booking fee is non-refundable in any circumstance.

2. Balance – The balance of the payment due shall be payable to the Operator directly and upon their request. The Operator retains the right to terminate the agreement if payment is not made upon demand or if the Operator considers that it is unlikely that the balance will be paid. Such termination is at the Operator’s absolute discretion.

4. Amendments – You are entitled to amend your booking up to seven days before your date of hire.

Should your amendments result in the cancellation of the agreement, our standard terms of cancellation shall apply.
