To these effects, the use of the Ticket will be used exclusively for the Carrier’s flights from the departure airport to the arrival airport, using, to the extent that it is possible, the routes and dates indicated therein.

Without prejudice to the provisions in these General Conditions, all transport and other services provided by the Carrier will be subject to (i) the arrangements that appear in this Ticket; (ii) the applicable fares; (iii) the related regulations which form part of this Contract (and, where appropriate, may be consulted in the offices of the Carrier); and (iv) the current applicable standard.

The General Conditions can be found at the disposal of the public on the website of the Carrier, (www.marcopoloairways.eu), and a copy can be obtained at the address indicated in Clause 1 and at the check-in counters.

Payment in accordance with Clause 5.3 shall signify the acceptance of this Contract.

4.1 General: The fare is only applicable from the departure airport to the arrival airport. The Ticket fare does not include land transportation between airports or between airports and city terminals, unless the Carrier expressly offers it. The Ticket fare will be that set by the Carrier in any given moment.

4.2 Taxes and Charges: The Carrier may add to the fare of the ticket the taxes and charges which are established by the competent authorities where and when it is deemed appropriate and will be paid by the passenger. The carrier will inform the passenger of the total amount of the taxes and charges upon making the reservation. These taxes and charges are subject to modifications beyond the Carrier’s control, and may be changed after making the reservation. In the case that these taxes and charges are increased, the passenger is obligated to pay the amount of the increase before beginning their flight. In the case that the taxes and charges have decreased or have been lifted before the Carrier has paid, the passenger, where appropriate, will have the right to claim a refund of that amount.

4.3 Non-use of flight: Save as otherwise provided in these General Conditions, the failure by a passenger to use a flight booked by him/her shall not give rise to any obligation or liability on the part of the Carrier to return or reimburse to the passenger the price of that flight or the charges, booking fee, taxes or any other amount paid by the Passenger to the Carrier in connection with that flight or to pay any compensation or indemnity except the reimbursement of any Airport Tax or Security Tax to the extent that the passenger requests reimbursement of the same.

5. Seat Reservations

5.1 Reservation Requirements: The seat reservation for a flight is confirmed when the Carrier issues a tracking number or the Ticket, with no further confirmation required.

5.2 Changes in the reservation: The passenger will not have the right to change the reservation once it is confirmed. Without infringing upon the aforementioned, the identity of the passenger or the flight can be changed (subject to seat availability), paying a surcharge per passenger, and, where appropriate, the difference between the price of the original Ticket and its corresponding taxes and charges, and the price of the new Ticket and its corresponding taxes and charges. The surcharge for changing the identity of the person on the reservation will be 30 euros. Changes to the reservation should be made at least two (2) hours before the departure of the flight. The Ticket must have the same person’s name on it for every leg. The name on the Ticket may not be changed if any leg indicated therein has already been completed.

5.3 Payment: The price of the Flight Ticket as well as taxes, handling fees and any other administrative charges relating to the booking shall be paid in full at the time the reservation is confirmed. Should the aforementioned payment be verified as outstanding, the Contract shall be deemed not to have come into effect and the present Conditions shall not be applicable

5.4 Changes to Reservation or seat:
The passenger will be able to reserve a seat through the proper channels, available at all times, designated by the Carrier. In order to do so, an extra corresponding fee will apply.
Said reservation should be made in ways and under conditions accepted by the Carrier, and in accordance to the following table, which is subject to periodic updating by the Carrier:
• (i) Seats XL: 10 € per trip for flights within Spain (origin or destination), and 13 € for flights outside of Spain (origin or destination);

• (iii) Seats Basic: aisles 14 to 30, both included, 2 € per trip for flights within Europe (origin or destination), and 3 € for flights outside of Spain (origin or destination).
In the case that the passenger has chosen not to reserve a seat, the Carrier will assign one to him/her based on availability, and without charging any additional fee to the passenger.
If the passenger wishes to change a seat that has already been reserved, the Carrier will assign one to him/her based on availability, but under no circumstances will the extra fee be reimbursed.

6. Schedules and connections, delays, diversions, substitutions, flight cancellations, and passengers denied boarding

6.1 Schedules and connections: At any moment after making a seat reservation the Carrier may change the schedule and/or cancel, consider finished, divert, postpone or delay any flight if the Carrier decides to do so with just cause or for security reasons and in such cases Clauses 6.2 through 6.6 shall apply.
Carrier does not make connecting flights. In case you buy two tickets with the intention of connect flights, we advise you to have into account that there must be a 120 minutes difference between landing and departure. At the same time, as we do not make connected flights, please notice you will have to book-in at carrier desks for each flight. Remember we offer a Check-in on line service which may help you save time.

6.2 Delays: If the Carrier foresees a flight delay in regards to its departure time: (I) equal to or greater than two hours, in the case of flights up to 1500 km, (II) equal to or greater than three hours, in the case of all intra-community flights of more than 1500 km and all the other flights between 1500 and 3500 km, (III) equal to or greater than four hours, in the case of all flights not included in the aforementioned sections, it shall offer the passengers the assistance specified in (a) Clauses 7.3 (i), 7.3 (iv), and 7.3 (V), (b) Clauses 7.3 (II) and (III) when the foreseen departure time is at least the day after the previously announced departure time, and (c) Clause 7.2 (I) when the delay is equal to or greater than five hours.

In any event, in accordance with the contents of Art. 11.6 of Regulation 2111/2005, the air transport carrier shall inform the passenger, at the time the booking is made, of the identity of the air carrier or carriers operating the flight.

6.5 Cancellation of Flights: In the case that a flight is cancelled, the Carrier will offer the passengers the assistance mentioned in Clauses 7.2, 7.3 (I), 7.3 (IV), and 7.3 (V), and, in the case that alternative transport is offered when the foreseen departure of the new flight is at least on the day after the programmed departure of the cancelled flight, the assistance of Clauses 7.3 (II) and 7.3 (III). When passengers are informed of a flight cancellation, the Carrier will provide information related to possible alternative means of transport. Likewise, the passengers will have the right to compensation under Clause 7.1.
The Carrier will not be obliged to pay any compensation to the passenger in accordance with Clause 7.1 when the cause of the cancellation was due to adverse meteorological conditions, war, acts of terrorism, unforeseeable circumstances, altercations, protests and any other situation regarding public demonstrations, technical problems that affect the aircraft, delays and air traffic control problems, fires, flooding, terrestrial movements, earthquakes, natural disasters, epidemics, and other restrictions provoked by a declaration of quarantine, acts of a competent authority, strikes and other labour-related situations, failures by any supplier or subcontractor or any other extraordinary circumstance that could not be avoided even if reasonable measures had been taken.
Likewise, the Carrier is not obligated to pay compensations outlined in Clause 7.1 when it has informed passengers of a flight cancellation (I) at least two weeks in advance of the scheduled time of departure, (II) between two weeks and seven days prior to the scheduled time of departure and offers an alternative means of transport which allows for passengers to leave no more than two hours earlier than the scheduled time and arrive to their final destination with less than a four hour delay with respect to the scheduled time of arrival, or (III) less than seven days notice prior to the estimated time of departure and offers another flight which allows passengers to leave with no more than an hour early with respect to the scheduled time of departure and arrive to their final destination with less than a two hour delay with respect to the scheduled time of arrival

6.6 Passengers denied boarding: In the case that a flight has excess reservations, the Carrier will ask for volunteers to renounce their reservation in exchange for benefits to be agreed between the parties.

8.4 Right of the Carrier to inspect the baggage: For security reasons, the Carrier may search and/or inspect all or part of the passenger’s baggage at any moment from the time it is checked in, with the appropriate technical devices (including x-rays). By accepting these General Conditions, the passenger expressly and amply gives consent to the Carrier to carry out these search and/or inspection tasks as many times as may be necessary. The Carrier will not be responsible for damage caused to the baggage or the passenger as a result of these search and/or inspection tasks, unless there is negligence by the Carrier.
The carrier will have the power to discontinue this Contract without incurring any responsibility in the case that the passenger refuses examination and/or inspection of their baggage.

8.5 Baggage weight per passenger: Each passenger can transport in the hold (according to luggage allowance) up to a maximum of 20kg of luggage, for which they must pay the corresponding fee (€8, 5 per flight and suitcase when this service is contracted through our website and €17 per flight and suitcase when it is contracted in the airport). The passenger must pay €8 per kg of luggage that exceeds the 20kg limit mentioned above. The carrier reserves the right to increase, reduce or annul these amounts at any time. The carrier may refuse to transport the totality or a part of the luggage that exceeds the weight stipulated in clause 8.5, or which has not been previously paid for.

The impossibility of transporting luggage due to causes beyond the carrier’s control will not generate any obligation whatsoever to return or refund the fee charged.

8.6 Carry-on baggage: Passengers may carry with them onboard the aircraft – at no additional cost – one piece of luggage with a maximum weight of 10kg, the dimensions of which must not exceed 55x40x20cm (see Luggage section).
In the event of non-observance by the Passenger of the Carriage Conditions cited in Condition 8.5 regarding payment or in Condition 8.6 regarding amount, weight and dimensions of cabin luggage free of charge, the Carrier may decide to:
i) Refuse to transport the totality or a part of the luggage that exceeds the amount, weight and/or measurements stipulated in clause 8.6, or which has not been previously paid for.
ii) Charge the passenger the corresponding fee (€15 per flight and luggage item) and send luggage to the hold, whenever possible.

For that purpose, the Passenger accepts and authorises the Carrier to charge the Passenger (after the flight in question) the amount pending via the same payment method used by the Passenger when making the booking.
Non-transportation of luggage and/or the Passenger due to causes beyond the Carrier’s control will not create any obligation whatsoever to refund the amount charged or any compensation for prohibiting boarding.
Additionally, passengers can take on board a woman’s handbag or small briefcase, a coat, a cloak or travel blanket, an umbrella or cane, a pair of crutches, a small photographic camera or binoculars.

These conditions are subject to space availability.

Removal of the baggage without protest by the holder of the baggage receipt (opening of the P.I.R. in the corresponding display) will mean renunciation of any complaint that may be made against the Carrier for any damage that the baggage may have incurred. In the case that baggage is not picked up by the passenger within 7 days after making it available, the Carrier may charge the amount of 10 euros per day for storage. If the passenger does not pick up the baggage within a period of three (3) months from the time that it is made available, the Carrier may dispose of this baggage as it sees fit disclaiming any responsibility for carrying this out.

In the case that a passenger claims a piece of baggage and does not present the corresponding baggage receipt, said piece of baggage will be turned over if it can be proven to the satisfaction of the Carrier that the passenger has the right to receive it.

8.8 Animals: Without infringing on that which is stated in Clause 8.2 (viii) of these General Conditions, a passenger with physical disabilities may transport guide dogs as well as their food at no additional charge for excess baggage (previously having consulted carrier Ticket Sales Offices regarding the value).

The Carrier reserves the right to deny boarding to a passenger once the corresponding Check-in Deadline has been exceeded, in which case the Carrier will not be liable for any damage that the passenger may suffer as a result of non-acceptance for boarding the flight.
Once the established Check-in deadline has passed, the Carrier may give the seats corresponding to passengers with reservations that have not been identified in the corresponding check-in counter or in any other office that the Carrier may indicate before the Check-in Deadline to stand-by passengers who may be on the waiting list.

9.2 Check-in: In order to check-in baggage, the passenger must present the ticket or corresponding tracking numbers and current national identification documents or passports that allow proper identification.

9.6 Denial of entry into a country: In the case that, for any reason, a public authority of any of the countries from or through which the transportation takes place denies the entry of the passenger into said country, including in transit, the passenger will pay the price for transportation to return to the original airport or to any other airport. The Carrier will not be obliged to reimburse the passenger for the part of the price of the Ticket corresponding to the routes the passenger had not completed and will not be held responsible for the passenger’s baggage.

9.7 Passenger responsibility: In the case that the Carrier has to pay any fine or sanction or incur any expense due to the passenger’s baggage (customs, police, etc.) or the passenger’s non-compliance with any law, regulation, rule, demand or other travel requirement of the country of origin, country of destination or country over which the passenger travels, the passenger will reimburse, when requested by the Carrier, the amount paid by the Carrier, or the expense they have incurred or will have to incur.

12.4 Exoneration: If the Carrier proves that negligence, or other improper action or neglect by the person that requests the indemnity, or person in whose name the request is filed, caused or contributed to the damage, the Carrier will be exonerated, completely or partially, of its liability if it is proven that the passenger caused or contributed to the negligence, or other improper action or neglect. When the claimant is not a passenger, due to the death or injury of the passenger, the Carrier is equally exonerated of liability, fully or partially, if it is proven that the passenger caused or contributed to the negligence, or other improper action or neglect.

12.5 Deadlines for making claims: The actions against the Carrier for damage to baggage are in the laws set forth by the Montreal Convention and EU Regulation (EC) No. 2027/97. Removal of the baggage without protest by the holder of the baggage receipt (opening of the P.I.R. in the corresponding display) will mean renunciation of any complaint that may be made against the Carrier for any damage that the baggage may have incurred.

12.5 General:
(i) Any exclusion or limitation of liability of the Carrier will benefit its agents, employees and representatives and any person whose aircraft is used by the carrier for the carriage and their agents, employees and representatives.

(ii) Without infringing on all of the above:


(a) The Carrier will only be responsible for the damage caused by its flights. A Carrier that issues a ticket or checks baggage for the flights of another Carrier, does so only as an agent of the other Carrier, without infringing on that established by the Montreal Convention and EU Regulation (EC) No. 2027/97.

(b) The Carrier will not be liable for the damage to unchecked baggage unless the damage is a result of negligence by the Carrier (and if it would have been checked in as hand luggage). If there is concurrent liability with the passenger, the Carrier’s liability will be subject to the applicable laws regarding concurrent liability.

(c) The Carrier will not be liable for damage derived from complying with the rules, orders or requirements of a government, or the damage that arises if the passenger does not comply with the rules, orders or requirements of a government.

(d) The Carrier’s liability will not exceed the amount of the proven damage.

(e) The Carrier will not be responsible for the injuries caused to a passenger by the belongings that they have in their baggage unless the injury is due to the negligence or fault of the Carrier. When the belongings of a passenger injure another person or damage the belongings of another person or the Carrier (and there is no fault or negligence on the part of the Carrier) that passenger will reimburse the Carrier for any claims that are presented for the losses or costs that the Carrier incurs as a result of these injuries.

(f) The Carrier will not be responsible for damage caused to articles that should not be carried in checked baggage (with or without the knowledge that the baggage contained those articles).
(g) If the Carrier carries a passenger who, due to their age or physical or mental state could be at risk, the Carrier will not be responsible in any way for any illness, injury or handicap, including death, that can be attributed to their state, nor due to the aggravation of their state resulting from the normal consequences of air carriage.

(h) Unless expressly stated to the contrary, none of the stipulations of these General Conditions constitute renouncing any of the exclusions or limits of the liability of the Carrier by virtue of Regulations 2027/97, 261/2004 and applicable laws.

Baggage

HAND LUGGAGE
From 6th November.:
To protect passengers against the threat of liquid explosives, the European Union (EU) has adopted new security measures restricting the volume of liquids or substances of a similar consistency which passengers can carry with them through security controls in EU community airports. These measures are applicable to all passengers leaving EU airports, regardless of their destination.

However, the new measures do not limit passengers from obtaining these liquids or substances from shops situated beyond the control point where a boarding pass must be shown, or onboard aircraft operated by an EU airline.

These measures are applied at all airports in the European Union as well as those in Norway, Iceland and Switzerland.


Only small amounts of liquid are allowed to be carried in hand luggage. Such liquids must be transported in small containers, with an individual maximum capacity of 100ml. Each passenger must package these containers in a self-sealing, transparent, plastic bag, of no more than one-liter capacity (a bag of approximately 20 x 20cm) to facilitate inspection of these products at security controls.

Passengers must obtain such bags before beginning their journey.
Liquids include:
• Water and other drinks, soups, syrups
• Creams, lotions and oils, including toothpaste
• Perfumes
• Content of pressurized containers, including shaving foam and other foams and deodorants
• Gels, such as shower gel or shampoo;
• Any other substance of a similar consistency
• Aerosols
At the airport:
• All liquids must be presented within the aforementioned bag, separately from hand luggage and placed in the tray provided for that purpose by security controls, to be examined by security personnel.
• The passenger must remove their jacket and/or coat and place them in the tray. These garments must be examined separately during the inspection.
• The passenger must remove their laptop computer or any other electronic device of similar dimensions from its case, and place it in the tray to be inspected separately from its case at security controls.
Passengers may take 1 piece of hand luggage per person weighing up to 10kg with the maximum dimensions of 55x40x20cm.
At the boarding gate, hand luggage that does not comply with the company’s regulations – that is, exceeding stipulated amount, weight or dimensions (55x40x20) – will incur a cost of €15 per suitcase.
CHECKED-IN LUGGAGE
Passengers can check in up to 20kg of luggage at a cost of €8,5 per flight and suitcase (when doing so via our website) and €17 per flight and suitcase (when checking in at the airport) according to the luggage allowance (except sports equipment).
Every kg of baggage exceeding that weight will be charged with 8 €/kg.
Maximum checked-in weight per passenger is 50kg.
Maximum weight per package is 32kg.
Indemnifications will always be in accordance with the weight checked in up to a maximum of the allowance.
Transport of arms: 20 €.
Sports equipment: You can travel with sports equipment like skis, snowboard, golf clubs, bicycle, surfboard, windsurfer and so on, as long as you pay an additional, 30-euro charge per item and flight.
Bicycles: bicycles must be correctly wrapped or packaged for transport (the bicycle dismantled as far as possible, tires deflated and pedals removed).
Musical instruments: Transportation of musical instruments falls into two categories. The first category includes those musical instruments that can be transported as hand luggage (the same conditions apply as to other hand luggage) while the second is of those instruments that must board as checked-in luggage (the same conditions apply as for checked-in luggage).
Within the second category (checked-in luggage), as an alternative and in the event the instrument does not exceed the dimensions 136 L x 47 W x 25 B (dimensions in centimeters), an additional seat may be bought for the instrument.
In all cases, as with all other luggage, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the instruments have been adequately prepared for transportation.
In the event of damage to your baggage, carrier will be responsible neither for broken handles nor broken wheels nor stains nor scratches nor either for dents.
