MicroSignals, Inc. Terms and Conditions
The Basics
We get it, legal documents can be long and thorough. Here's the simple version:
We're the middleman between You and the travel providers. We don't actually provide the trips or flights ourselves.
Read the fine print from each provider, especially about changes and refunds. Their rules apply.
We'll keep your personal information private and secure. Check our Privacy Policy for details.
You need to have valid travel documents like passports and visas. We're not responsible if You can't travel due to lacking documentation.
If You encounter any issues with the quality of the travel services, please note that these are provided by the travel supplier (e.g. the airlines) and they are best equipped to address and resolve your concerns.

Intermediation of Travel Services
2.1. For the flight and airline services, and in general for third party services offered on the Platform, collectively termed "Travel Services", our role is strictly that of an intermediary. In this capacity, our responsibilities are confined to the intermediation of Travel Services between You and third-party entities, including but not limited to airlines, travel operators and other travel service providers, hereinafter referred to as "Service Provider".
2.2. When You purchase Travel Services through our Platform, it is formalized into an agreement directly with the Service Provider(s). We do not enter into the contractual relationship relating to the Travel Services that You purchase, unless expressly indicated as such.
2.3. When You make a booking through the Platform, the contractual agreement for the Travel Services will be established between You and the Service Provider(s), unless explicitly stated otherwise, and not between Us and You.
2.4. We encourage You to check and read carefully the terms and conditions from each Service Provider before purchasing its products or services, especially those relating to change and cancellation fees.
2.5. When You are using the Platform to purchase Travel Services, You grant Us authorization to act as your mediator with the corresponding Service Provider(s). This includes mediating the payment for these Travel Services, ensuring a seamless transaction between You and the Service Provider(s). Upon successful payment, You will receive a confirmed ticket issued by the Service Provider. Please be aware that the final price for the Travel Services may encompass a service fee for the mediation services We provide in facilitating the agreement between You and the relevant Service Provider.
2.6. In case You are given the opportunity to express special requests when booking your flight (such as special meals, disabled facilities or child seats), We'll forward them to the appropriate Service Provider. Nonetheless, We cannot guarantee that the Service Provider will be able to meet these particular demands. We may apply a service fee for the processing of these special requests.
2.7. The actual execution and quality of the Travel Services mediated through the Platform solely rest with the relevant Service Provider. In our capacity as intermediaries, We do not assume any responsibility for the provision of Travel Services. We also make no representations or warranties, whether expressed or implied, regarding the suitability or quality of Travel Services mediated on the Platform. For any claims or issues related to the performance or non-performance of the Travel Service, the Service Provider is the responsible party to address.
2.8. Should You elect to directly request changes or modifications to your reservation with an airline or other Service Provider, please be advised that We cannot guarantee or take responsibility for the outcome of such requests. We will not be liable for any alterations, including cancellations or changes, to your reservation that result from your direct engagement with the Service Provider.
2.9. Please note that currently We communicate only in English by phone and email.
Validity and Application of Terms and Conditions
3.1. In relation to Travel Services arranged between You and a Service Provider (to which We are never a participating party), the general terms and conditions of the relevant Service Provider (such as conditions of carriage or the like), as issued by the Service Provider apply. The Service Provider terms may be provided to You by Us and/or the Service Provider during the booking process or may be requested by You directly from the Service Provider. As the Service Provider Terms may encompass provisions related to liability, cancellations, changes, refunds (if they apply), and other limitations, We highly advise You to conduct a comprehensive review of these terms. Please be aware that MicroSignals bears no responsibility should You neglect to read, understand, or comply with any of the Service Provider terms.
MicroSignals Services
4.1. At times, in addition to the mediation services, We might make available to You other services for purchase through the Platform. The specific conditions governing some of these services are outlined ANNEX 1 “MicroSignals own Services”.
4.2. The terms governing some of these Services (e.g. "Premium Assistance", "Flexible Ticket", among others) are instead available in their respective terms and conditions, which are presented to You at the time of purchase and are also accessible from your personal area. The terms associated with these individual services may, in certain instances, supersede or modify the general terms of service laid out in this document. In any situation where there is a discrepancy or conflict between the general T&Cs and those of the specific service, the provisions of the specific service's terms and conditions shall prevail. We strongly recommend that You review these specific terms thoroughly when availing of any such service.
Contact Details
5.1. In some instances, it might be necessary for Us to contact You, for example in case of subsequent changes to the Travel Services that you've acquired. Therefore it is crucial that You provide accurate contact information, including your telephone number and email address. Furthermore, We recommend that You continuously check for messages from Us. Also, You are required to meticulously review all the details You provide when submitting your booking request, including ensuring that your full name corresponds to your identification card, and that You supply the accurate email address and phone number before completing your booking. Please be aware that subsequent change requests may incur substantial additional costs.
5.2. It is also your responsibility to ensure that You are able to receive our messages. We are not responsible if You do not receive a message from Us due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including, but not limited to the following: (i) You gave Us an incorrect email address; (ii) your email settings won’t allow our email to reach You; (iii) your email settings treat our email as spam; (iv) your email inbox is full and cannot receive new messages; (v) your email provider is experiencing technical issues or downtime and (vi) You provided an incorrect or outdated phone number.
5.3. It is your responsibility to contact Us immediately if You do not receive your ticket or other booking confirmation within the expected timeframe or if You identify that You have provided incorrect details for your reservation. Failure to notify Us promptly may result in additional costs or complications that We cannot be held liable for.
5.4. By providing your mobile phone number and completing a booking with Us, You consent to receive SMS messages intended to keep You informed about your travel arrangements. This may include booking confirmations, flight or accommodation updates, payment confirmations, itinerary changes, and other critical notifications. The frequency of these messages depends on the nature of your booking and the communication required to support it. Standard message and data rates may apply as determined by your mobile carrier.
Mediation of Flights
6.1. With respect to the flights offered on the Platform, We solely serve as intermediaries. The contract for the provision of the flight services is directly established between You and the respective airline. We do not assume any contractual responsibility pertaining to the execution or non-execution of your flight. The operating airline holds exclusive responsibility for the performance or non-performance of your flight.
6.2. Following the submission of your booking request, You will receive an email from us, acknowledging the receipt of your request. This email signifies the formation of the mediation contract between You and Us. Please note that once the booking request is submitted, it becomes irrevocably binding on your part for a period of 48 hours. If, for any reason, You do not receive this email within one hour of finalizing your booking request, and We have not reached out to You via email or telephone to report any issues, We kindly request that You get in touch with Us for the purpose of verification.
6.3. Once the tickets that You requested have been issued by the airline(s), You will receive an order confirmation email containing the itinerary of your travel. This marks the point at which a legally binding contract between You and the respective airline(s) has been formalized. In some cases, You may receive two booking confirmations – one from Us and another from the respective airline. If You receive two booking confirmations, please utilize the airline's booking confirmation for your check-in.
6.4. Please be advised that between the moment You receive our email acknowledging the receipt of your booking request and the moment You receive the order confirmation email containing your travel itinerary, your flight order is in the process of confirmation with the supplier. During this interim period, MicroSignals is unable to address queries or accommodate requests for changes from the Customer, as the flight order has not yet been confirmed with the airline. This is a critical phase where the booking is being finalized, and any modifications or inquiries can only be effectively managed after the issuance of the order confirmation email, at which point the contractual agreement with the airline is established.
6.5. While mediating Travel Services provided by airlines, We may not always have guaranteed access to the airline's booking system. In such instances, We may represent your interests in finalizing the contract between You and the airline. Additionally, We may request that You directly communicate with the respective airline for inquiries regarding bookings, modifications, or cancellations of your reservation.
6.6. Flight prices and seat availability displayed on the Platform are defined by the relevant Service Provider. If the Service Provider makes changes beyond our control, such as alterations to prices, seat availability, flight schedules, or other factors, after you've submitted a booking request but before the contract with the Service Provider becomes binding, the contract will not be activated, and your payment will be refunded. In these cases, We may still reach out to You and present the option to accept the adjusted price during regular operating hours.
6.7. Our Platform allows You to customize and combine various individual services. In such scenarios, You engage Us to facilitate the booking of diverse travel offerings from different providers. The specific suppliers involved will be transparently displayed to You during the booking process before finalizing your reservation. When You assemble individual services, it doesn't create a travel contract between You and Us. Instead, You enter into separate agreements with each service provider. Here, We merely act as a facilitator for each individual travel service You select.
6.8. The information below outlines general policies and procedures typically applied by airlines regarding booking, check-in, baggage and other common aspects of air travel. However, any airline's specific terms and conditions supersede the general information provided here. Travelers should review each airline's applicable rules before booking.
Minors: We do not facilitate bookings for unaccompanied minors. Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult for their journey. Some countries and airlines may require children under 18 to travel with a legal guardian, and certain airlines may request proof of age, such as a birth certificate.
Infants and Child bookings: for information regarding travel conditions for children without separate seats, please reach out to the airline directly. Generally, children above 2 years of age require individual seats, while infants aged 0 to 2 years travel without a designated seat. If an infant turns 2 years old during the trip, You must book a child ticket for the entire journey. Please note that infant tickets cannot be booked before the child's birth, as the provided name and birthdate must match the details on the passport. We are not responsible for any expenses resulting from booking the incorrect ticket type initially.
Pregnant Travelers: some airlines do not allow passengers past their 28th week of pregnancy to travel on outbound or return flights. Pregnant travelers should verify with both their physician and the airline that they are fit to fly before booking. Airlines may require documentation from the passenger's doctor.
Flight schedule and Check-In Deadlines: all departure times listed are local to the originating airport. Arrival times are local to the destination airport. Next-day arrivals are generally shown with a "+1" on the timetable. Schedules are preliminary and may change without notice after the ticket has been issued; reasons for these changes include air traffic control, weather or airline operations. Please ensure to reconfirm flight times before departure. Passengers must adhere to the check-in times required by their airline to avoid denied boarding. Airlines may refuse transport to passengers who arrive late for check-in. Some airlines strongly encourage online check-in through their website and may charge fees for manual check-in at the airport counter.
Bookings with multiple segments: some roundtrip or one-way tickets may have multiple segments. Most airlines require tickets to be used in the booked sequence per airline rules. Failure to fly a segment can prompt airlines to cancel the remaining segments. For roundtrip tickets, no-shows on outbound flights often lead to cancellation of the return leg by the airline. You agree not to purchase a round-trip ticket that You plan to use only for one-way travel. You further agree not to purchase a ticket or tickets containing flight segments that You will not be using, such as a "point-beyond", "hidden-city", or "back-to-back tickets". You agree to indemnify MicroSignals against any airline claims for the difference between the full fare of your actual itinerary and the value of the ticket or tickets that You purchased.
Purchase of combined one-way tickets: in some instances, One-Way Tickets can be combined and purchased as Round Trip itineraries booked as two separate one-way tickets instead of a roundtrip fare. If purchased separately, each one-way ticket is subject to its respective airline's policies for changes, cancellations, delays, and schedule disruptions like strikes. Airlines treat one-way tickets independently even if booked together as part of the same itinerary. Passengers should review both airlines’ rules prior to ticketing. Airline tickets booked under separate booking numbers are always treated as discrete, independent itineraries by carriers.
Double bookings: A double booking occurs when an airline has issued more than one reservation for the same passenger on the same flight or overlapping flights. If You find yourself in possession of a double booking, the airline has the prerogative to cancel the associated trip(s). A similar outcome may also arise if these reservations were generated through different travel agencies. Please note that We do not bear liability for airline-initiated cancellations or denied reimbursements in instances where a double booking is suspected.
Damaged or lost luggage: as an intermediary, We do not assume liability for lost or damaged luggage. If You encounter any issues with your luggage, it is essential that You report them immediately to the airline's representative at the airport. The airline is liable to You for the baggage You entrust to it only for the compensation contemplated in the international conventions or other relevant statutes. In the event of damage, late forwarding, theft or loss of luggage, You should contact your airline and declare the damage, absence or loss of your personal effects before leaving the airport, and then submit a declaration, attaching the originals of the following documents: the travel ticket, the baggage check-in slip, and the declaration. It is recommended that You take out an insurance policy covering the value of your items.
Ground Transportation and Accommodations: usually, expenses related to ground transportation and overnight stays during your journey are not covered by the flight ticket price. It is your individual responsibility to confirm ground transportation schedules and associated expenses.
Connection times between flights: standard tickets reserved through the Platform have minimum connection times set by airlines. If a flight leg experiences a delay that results in a missed connection, the airlines are obligated to facilitate your journey to your ultimate destination. In the case of separate ticket bookings, airlines do not assume liability for missed connections due to delays. Consequently, it is your responsibility to confirm that the connection time is sufficient according to the airlines and airports. Any supplementary expenses incurred due to missed connections will not be subject to reimbursement.
6.9. If you are a consumer permanently based outside of the European Union, the following applies - Exclusion from the 24-Hour Refund Policy: In accordance with prevailing laws, You recognize and accept that, under U.S. federal guidelines, MicroSignals, given its status of intermediary, isn't obligated to offer or provide ticket cancellations or refunds. This remains true even if such a request is submitted within 24 hours of making a reservation or during any other timeframe outlined in relevant legislation. For clarity, MicroSignals, as a third-party agent, is not bound by the 24-hour booking refund directive established by the U.S. Department of Transportation.
6.10. If you are a consumer permanently based in the European Union, you may withdraw from eligible service contracts within 14 days of purchase, unless the service has been fully performed or begun with Your explicit consent before that period ends. Please note that this right does not apply to flight bookings or other travel services with specific dates, nor to services involving immediate confirmation, in line with Article 59 of the Italian Consumer Code. As an intermediary, MicroSignals is exempt from these withdrawal rights for most bookings.
To exercise your right of withdrawal (where applicable), notify Us before the deadline via the Support section of your MyArea available at www.farera.com or by sending a written notice to MicroSignals Italia Srl registered offices. Please include Your Order ID in the communication. As the Customer bears the responsibility for exercising the right of withdrawal within the set time frame, it is advisable to use a reliable means of communication for this purpose.
6.11. The flight times listed on your booking confirmation might vary from the date of your booking to your actual travel date. We advise checking with your airline at least 3 days prior to the scheduled departure to confirm the timing of your flight and any connections. Additionally, We recommend verifying the specific terminal and any potential changes at the airport a day before your travel. We're not responsible for any alterations made by the airline or any inconveniences at the airport, nor for any associated costs that might arise due to these changes.
6.12. Changes and cancellations requested by You: Flight booking adjustments (like altering passenger details, destinations, and travel dates) as well as cancellation refund policies are defined by the corresponding airline, your main agreement holder for flight services. As intermediaries, We hold no control over these policies.
Should You request to modify your reservation or seek a cancellation refund, We can step in to manage the request for you, as long as the airline's terms allow for such modifications or refunds. When arranging these supplementary services, We'll notify You of any associated terms and charges. For a list of our fees, please refer to Section 110 on this document.
For Us to manage your change requests, We must receive such requests a minimum of 5 working days before travel begins. If You need to request changes on a shorter notice, We advise reaching out to the respective airline directly.
If You wish to request a schedule change for your flight, please note that You cannot choose a new flight departing within 72 hours from the time You submit your request to Us. This requirement ensures sufficient processing time and coordination with the respective airline.
We do not support partial cancellations of your booking due to our role as an intermediary between You and the Service Provider. If You wish to request a partial voluntary cancellation You are advised to contact the airline directly for further assistance. However, please note that We cannot guarantee any outcome or assume liability for any cancellation that You have requested directly to the Service Provider.
In cases where an amendment to passenger details is permitted according to airline policies, as well as our T&Cs, only minor corrections are allowed (e.g., spelling errors or missing characters). Full name changes or significant alterations to passenger details cannot be processed, as airline tickets are non-transferable. We recommend reviewing all details carefully at the time of booking to avoid such issues.
6.13. Missed Flight or No-Show: Should You fail to show up for or miss your flight, You give Us permission to seek potential refunds from the airline on your behalf. While We have the right to do this, it's not a requirement. Your entitlement to pursue unclaimed refunds directly from the airline is still intact.
Should We secure refunds for you, our fees will be subtracted from the retrieved amount. We'll hold onto any refunds, after deducting our charges, for a duration of 12 months from the flight date. You can ask for a transfer of the remaining balance anytime within this 12-month window by reaching out to our customer service. For a list of our fees, please refer to Section 110 on this document.
6.14. As an intermediary, We strive to provide accurate baggage allowance information based on the information available to Us at the time of booking. However, the baggage allowances displayed on the Platform are indicative and may not fully reflect the actual allowance provided by the airlines. It is your responsibility to verify the exact baggage allowance for your ticket directly with the airline before making any additional baggage allowance purchases or requesting any refunds related to baggage. We are not liable for any discrepancies between the indicative information provided on the Platform and the airlines’ actual baggage policies, and no refunds will be issued for additional baggage purchases made based on this indicative information.
6.15. Additional and oversized baggage fees: Most airlines have their own policy regarding baggage. Always check with your airline before You fly for their most current baggage fees and rules.
If We do not have info for your flight, We recommend that You check with your airline ahead of time for any weight restrictions and additional charges relating to checked baggage. You will be responsible for paying to the airline any additional charges for checked or overweight baggage, including, but not limited to, golf bags and oversized luggage. If You exceed the weight limit set by your airline, and excess weight is permitted, You must pay a supplement directly to the airline at the airport.
6.16. Stop-Overs: Direct flights may be “non-stop” or may involve one or more stop-overs (in the latter case this means the same flight by the airline, because the flight number remains the same). The same applies to connecting flights that may be subject to crew changes. When You reserve a flight involving a stop-over in a town, and the second flight takes off from a different airport to the airport of arrival, ensure that You have sufficient time for reaching the second airport. The journey to the other airport is at your own expense. We will not be able to reimburse You for these costs, nor will it be liable if You miss the second flight.
6.17. Problems related to the issuance of e-tickets: As of June 1st, 2008, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) imposed rules with regard to the issuing of air travel tickets. As of that date, travel agencies and airlines have an obligation to only issue travel tickets via electronic means. Due to technical constraints to do with airline’s restrictions in relation to certain requirements (infants under the age of 2, inter-airline agreements, groups, etc.), it may be impossible to issue an electronic ticket. Therefore, though a flight may be shown as available, it might prove impossible for Us to honor your reservation. This situation, which is outside our control, will not result in liability on our part.
If We cannot issue You an e-ticket, We will contact You to propose an alternative route solution. This could involve a different tariff and/or additional costs for which You would be responsible. In the event of the absence of an alternative solution, your refusal to pay any tariff difference, or if the issuance of tickets proves impossible, We would be forced to cancel your reservation at no cost to you. We will provide You with a full refund after determining that there is no alternative solution possible.
Selected Seat Conditions
7.1. If the selected flight includes the option to choose seats, MicroSignals may offer You the ability to request specific seats during the booking process, subject to the terms listed below.
7.2. By using the seat selection feature, You authorize MicroSignals to submit seat requests to the relevant airline on Your behalf and on behalf of any other passengers included in the booking.
7.3. By requesting specific seats, You confirm that You have reviewed and accepted the applicable seat assignment policies and transportation conditions of the selected airline, including any limitations or restrictions, for all passengers under the reservation.
7.4. While MicroSignals will transmit Your seat preferences to the airline, final seat allocation is at the discretion of the airline. If the requested seat is unavailable, the airline may assign an alternative with comparable characteristics (e.g., window seat, extra legroom, front row, etc.). For group bookings, efforts will be made to preserve seat proximity where possible.
7.5. If the selected seat cannot be confirmed due to reasons beyond MicroSignals’ control (e.g., technical failure, airline denial), You will be notified in advance of departure and any amount paid specifically for the unfulfilled seat selection will be refunded. In such cases, MicroSignals shall not be liable for the inability to secure the preferred seat.
Timetable Changes and Cancellation by Airlines
8.1. The airline with which You have an agreement may have the authority to modify or cancel your reservations. Once informed by the airline of any alterations, We will notify You promptly.
8.2. Please note that while MicroSignals makes every effort to notify Customers of any involuntary schedule changes made by airlines, there may be instances where changes occurring within 24 hours prior to departure might not be intercepted and relayed to You in a timely manner. Given the proximity to the departure time and potential communication delays, We strongly advise all Customers to periodically check the airline's official website or contact the airline directly in the hours leading up to departure to ensure that they are aware of the most current flight information. MicroSignals decline all responsibilities for missed flights or any resulting consequences due to involuntary schedule changes made by airlines within the 24-hour window before departure.
8.3. In response to schedule changes and/or Airport changes initiated by the airline, MicroSignals adopts the following procedures based on the extent of the change:
If the airline alters the flight schedule three (3) hours or less in total, MicroSignals will automatically accept this schedule change on behalf of the Customer. This policy is in place to streamline the process and ensure minimal disruption to your travel plans.
In the event of a schedule change by the airline that exceeds three (3) hours in total, or in the event that the airline changes the departure or arrival airport of your flight, MicroSignals will present the Customer with alternative options made available by the airline at that time. Due to the time-sensitive nature of flight schedule changes, MicroSignals will provide a specific timeframe within which the Customer must provide their acceptance of one of the presented alternatives.
It is crucial that Customers respond within the given timeframe to facilitate a seamless adjustment to their travel itinerary. In the absence of an explicit reply from the Customer within this period, MicroSignals reserves the right to make a decision on the Customer's behalf regarding the schedule change. This measure ensures the preservation of the Customer's travel arrangements and adherence to the airline's conditions and availability.
Customers are advised to maintain open lines of communication with MicroSignals during this process to ensure that their preferences are considered and to avoid any potential misunderstandings regarding their travel itinerary.
8.4. In the event of a timetable change or cancellation initiated by the airline, should You request Us to seek an alternative flight option beyond what the airline has provided, We will try to handle the request on your behalf, contingent upon the airline's conditions. While We do not guarantee sourcing alternative flight options beyond those already provided by the airline, in specific cases and at our discretion, We may assist in finding other options. Please be aware that MicroSignals may apply a service fee for assisting You during a change or cancellation initiated by the airline. For a list of our fees, please refer to Section 11 on this document.
Preservation of Rights / Waiver
9.1. At no point should our actions be interpreted as forgoing or surrendering any protections, disclaimers, commitments, terms, or any element of this contract. Specifically, if We grant You a refund, allow modifications, accept a cancellation, or make any other allowances concerning our Travel Services, it does not imply We are waiving any of our contractual rights or terms.
9.2. No delay or failure by either party to exercise or enforce at any time any right or provision hereof will be considered a waiver thereof of such party's rights thereafter to exercise or enforce each and every right and provision hereof. No single waiver will constitute a continuing or subsequent waiver. MicroSignals does not guarantee it will take action against all breaches of our T&Cs. No waiver of any provision hereof will be effective unless it is agreed by both the parties.
Travel Documentation and Entry Requirements
10.1. It's essential to note that passport, visa, and health requirements may vary, so You should consult the pertinent authority (like an embassy or consulate) well before your travel date. You are responsible for having a valid passport and, if necessary, the appropriate visa. Don't forget to account for any transit stops in your itinerary, as they might also necessitate a visa. Obtaining a visa can be a lengthy process, so early application is recommended. We bear no liability for individuals lacking the proper documentation.
10.2. Every destination comes with specific entry criteria, vaccination requirements, and other regulations that might differ based on the traveler's nationality. Gathering this information is your responsibility. We won't be held accountable for any issues resulting from non-compliance with these official guidelines. Thus, We strongly advise You to thoroughly check the requirements of your intended destination and any transit countries, including the time required to complete any necessary procedures.
10.3. Most international travel requires a passport valid until at least six (6) months beyond the scheduled return date. Further information on entry requirements can be obtained from your national authority responsible for foreign affairs, or directly from the destination country's website. Some countries require You to be in possession of a return ticket or exit ticket and have sufficient funds, etc. Similarly, certain countries require that You produce evidence of insurance/repatriation coverage before it will issue a visa.
10.4. You must carefully observe all applicable formalities and ensure that the surnames and forenames used for all travelers when making a booking and appearing in their travel documents (booking forms, travel tickets, vouchers, etc.), correspond exactly with those appearing on their passport, visas, etc.
10.5. WE CANNOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU ARE REFUSED PASSAGE ON ANY AIRLINE, TRANSPORT OR ENTRY INTO ANY COUNTRY DUE TO THE FAILURE ON YOUR PART TO CARRY OR OBTAIN THE CORRECT DOCUMENTATION OR IMMUNIZATIONS. IF FAILURE TO DO SO RESULTS IN FINES, SURCHARGES, CLAIMS, FINANCIAL DEMANDS OR OTHER FINANCIAL PENALTIES BEING IMPOSED ON US, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INDEMNIFYING AND REIMBURSING US ACCORDINGLY.
Service Fees
11.1. MicroSignals imposes non-refundable service fees for its mediation services.
11.2. The service fees set by MicroSignals can vary based on the products or services in your order, the channel used, and other pertinent factors.
11.3. The currency in which the service fee is applied will depend on the currency used during the transaction of the original reservation.
11.4. We retain the right to charge the service fee (or a portion thereof) upfront at the time of the request. This approach helps ensure partial compensation for the activities and associated costs MicroSignals undertakes in response to the Customer's request.
11.5. As an intermediary, MicroSignals can apply the following service fees:
Flight Cancellation requested by Customer: $150 (or €150 or £130) per request
Changes to existing tickets requested by Customer prior to current scheduled trip departure: $150 (or €150 or £130) per request
All other requests related to the Travel Services purchased by the Customer: $30 (or €30 or £25) per passenger per leg of the trip. Examples of these requests include, but are not limited to: managing changes or cancellations initiated by the airlines, providing manual assistance for tasks such as making a new booking or adding passengers, assisting with alternative flight options when the airline changes or cancels a scheduled flight, handling baggage requests, name changes and corrections, seating arrangements, and other extra services.
10.6. Be aware that any modifications and/or refunds are governed by the airline's policies and fare rules. There may be additional fees imposed by the airline, over which We, acting as intermediaries, have no control. If the requested change results in a higher ticket price, or if the alteration causes the passenger to be ineligible for a special rate, any such additional costs will be the responsibility of the Customer.
Pricing Errors
12.1. In rare instances, there may be an error in the pricing. Obvious pricing errors are not binding. An obvious pricing error is one that is glaring and manifest, where it is clear that no reasonable person would consider the price as normal. Under such circumstances, We reserve the right to cancel the booking without any penalty and refund the charged amount. We may offer the User the option to retain the booking at the correct price and pay the price difference.
Refund Procedures and Limitations
13.1. Refunds are handled according to the Service Provider's terms and conditions. If You qualify for a cash refund, it will be issued using the initial payment method from your booking. Additionally, if you're eligible for a cash refund, We may offer You the alternative of receiving a voucher instead. Be aware that airfares consist of various components, and not all of them might be refundable. Therefore, even if You qualify for a refund based on the Service Provider's policies, the amount returned may not match the total You initially paid for your booking.
13.2. All refunds are issued by the relevant Service Provider. As an intermediary, We have no control over the Service Provider's processing times.
13.3. As We operate as an intermediary, We'll initiate a refund only once the corresponding funds have been received from the pertinent Service Provider. Please note that all refunds will be processed after deducting our service fees.
13.4. Your booking's total price comprises the Travel Service(s) price, any add-on products, and our service fees. Please be aware that our service fees aren't refundable, as they cover our intermediation services, deemed complete once your booking is confirmed. Refunds for add-on products from third party Service Providers are contingent upon our receipt of corresponding refunds from them. Any add-ons offered by Us are also not refundable except where prohibited by law.
13.5. State Specific Refund Rules:
For California and Illinois Residents only:
Upon cancellation of the transportation or travel services, where the Customer is not at fault and has not canceled in violation of any terms and conditions previously clearly and conspicuously disclosed and agreed to by the Customer, all sums paid to the seller of travel for services not provided will be promptly paid to the Customer, unless the Customer advises the seller of travel in writing, after cancellation. In California, this provision does not apply where the seller of travel has remitted the payment to another registered wholesale seller of travel or a carrier, without obtaining a refund, and where the wholesaler or provider defaults in providing the agreed-upon transportation or service. In this situation, the seller of travel must provide the Customer with a written statement accompanied by bank records establishing the disbursement of the payment, and if disbursed to a wholesale seller of travel, proof of current registration of that wholesaler.For Washington Residents only:
If transportation or other services are canceled by the seller of travel, all sums paid to the seller of travel for services not performed in accordance with the contract between the seller of travel and the purchaser will be refunded within thirty days of receiving the funds from the vendor with whom the services were arranged, or if the funds were not sent to the vendor, the funds shall be returned within fourteen days after cancellation by the seller of travel to the purchaser unless the purchaser requests the seller of travel to apply the money to another travel product and/or date.
No Show
14.1. If You choose not to use the flight ticket or fail to arrive at the boarding gate on time, You may be entitled to a partial refund of the unused ticket, depending on the fare purchased. Upon purchasing through our Platform, You authorize Us to take all necessary actions, on a non-exclusive basis, to request and obtain the refund from the airline on your behalf for the unused flight segments (hereinafter referred to as the "NoShow Mandate"). The Company accepts the NoShow Mandate from the moment it initiates the refund request with the airline. The recovered amounts will be held by the Company with the utmost care until You request them by contacting Us through our standard support channels available in Your MyArea. If the refund is available, it will be credited to You using the same payment method used during the purchase process, unless otherwise agreed between You and the Company. It is clarified that the amount held will not accrue any interest under any circumstances.
14.2. If the refund is not expressly requested within 3 months from the scheduled departure date of the unused flight, the amount will be converted into a voucher, which can be used for booking a new flight on the Website within 12 months from the issuance date. The voucher is personal, non-transferable, and cannot be converted into cash. The Company charges a fee for managing the NoShow Mandate, as specified in Section 11. Additionally, You authorize the Company to deduct these management fees directly from the refund obtained from the airline.
Payment, Currency and Credit Card Considerations
15.1. Payment for Travel Services is managed either directly by Us or by affiliates within our corporate network, in collaboration with our designated payment service providers who oversee the payment functionalities, or by the Service Provider. Any payment details provided by our Customers are encrypted and securely transmitted to our payment service providers.
15.2. Should We have grounds to believe that a payment may involve fraudulent activity, We reserve the right to decline processing that payment. Verification of the payment may be required if any illicit activity is suspected. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement authorities any act of payment fraud.
15.3. In the event that We have justifiable suspicion that a reservation has been made with fraudulent intent, We reserve the right to cancel said reservation. Following the cancellation, a refund will be issued to the Customer.
15.4. To process your payment, please ensure that sufficient funds are available. If issues arise during the transaction, We will coordinate with our payment service providers to attempt the transaction again. If the transaction cannot be completed, We may contact You for alternative payment options. If the payment continues to remain outstanding, We reserve the right to refer the amount to a debt collection agency.
15.5. In certain instances, the billing currency may not match the currency shown for prices and fees on our Platform, especially if specific currencies aren't supported. We'll provide an estimate using an alternate currency that the Platform supports. As a result, when You finalize your booking, the ultimate charge on your payment method might slightly vary due to changes in exchange rates, currency conversion, and potential fees from other involved parties (e.g. the credit card company). Should this apply to your booking, We will notify You during the reservation process.
15.6. Based on the specifics of your booking and any additional services selected, the payment might be divided into two distinct transactions: one from Us and another from the Service Provider. The total charged won't exceed the amount displayed on our website. All transactions are subjected to the same stringent security protocols.
15.7. Credit Card Billing Address: Credit card payments require a verifiable billing address from the United States, Canada, or other recognized countries.
15.8. Non-Dispute Agreement: By electing to pay for travel services with a credit/debit card, You agree not to dispute such charges with your bank under circumstances including, but not limited to, claims of non-receipt of product or services or requests for refunds. Any disputes shall be resolved by contacting Us directly, prior to initiating any bank disputes.
15.9. Liability for Payments: You acknowledge liability for all credit card payments and agree not to dispute charges post-purchase once travel tickets or other services have been confirmed via email. You commit to reimburse any chargebacks or credit card disputes in cases where services have been verifiably purchased from our Platform.
15.10. Breach of Terms: Initiating a dispute with your credit/debit card issuer constitutes a breach of our T&Cs.
15.11. Authorization of Online Transactions: Online credit card transactions are deemed authorized when a Customer, or their authorized representative, accepts these T&Cs and agrees to proceed with the purchase.
15.12. Handling of High-Risk Transactions: Transactions identified as high-risk by our systems will not be processed unless cleared by our credit card verification systems. For such transactions, We reserve the right to contact You or your bank to validate the transaction.
Chargebacks and Compensation
16.1. In the event that a Customer initiates a chargeback through their credit card company or bank against any transaction made on our Platform, MicroSignals reserves the right to immediately cancel the associated booking with the travel supplier. If We have grounds to suspect that a chargeback has been initiated with fraudulent intent, We reserve the right to take all necessary actions to prevent the suspected user from using our Platform in the future. Customers are encouraged to communicate with our Customer support team to address any concerns before resorting to a chargeback to avoid potential cancellations and loss of funds.
16.2. If MicroSignals cancels a booking with the travel supplier due to a chargeback initiated by the Customer as described in Clause 15.1, and subsequently receives a refund from the supplier, We will refund this amount to the Customer. However, We reserve the right to deduct a service fee of up to $1,000 from the refund to cover the costs incurred in managing the chargeback process. The remaining refund will be issued to the Customer in the form of a voucher, which will expire 12 months from the date of issuance. This voucher is non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for cash.
Addressing Claims
17.1. Claims relating to performance of Travel Services: Should You have any concerns, comments, or claims about the actual delivery of Travel Services, You should directly communicate with the respective Service Provider with whom You have a contract for that specific Travel Service.
17.2. If you are a consumer permanently based outside of the European Union, any claims concerning services provided directly by MicroSignals must be made in writing and submitted within three months following the conclusion of your journey at the following address: MicroSignals, Inc. 1111B S Governors Ave STE 6454 Dover, Delaware 19904 USA.

Roles, Responsibilities, and Limitations of Liability

18.3. By accepting these T&Cs, the Customer grants MicroSignals the authorization to act on behalf of the Customer in any bankruptcy proceedings of the Service Provider, including initiating legal actions necessary to protect the Customer’s interests. Such delegation is considered valid, but will only be deemed accepted by MicroSignals upon explicit communication of acceptance to the Customer. If MicroSignals does not communicate its acceptance, the Customer remains responsible for pursuing their own claims in the bankruptcy process.
18.4. Concerning our services, our liability for damages is constrained by the limitations detailed in the T&Cs and as allowed by law.

We will only be responsible for direct damages you've genuinely experienced, paid, or incurred because of a failure on our part to fulfill our service obligations, up to the total cost of your booking (either for a single incident or a sequence of related incidents). IN NO EVENT SHALL MICROSIGNALS’ TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE TRAVELER FOR CLAIMS ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID BY THE TRAVELER TO MICROSIGNALS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
18.5. If, due to exceptional events or situations beyond our control (Force Majeure), there are issues with reservations, confirmations, or the delivery of any bookings or services, We are absolved from any legal liabilities stemming from such issues or non-adherence related to the Force Majeure effects. “Force Majeure” refers to any event beyond MicroSignals’ reasonable control, including but not limited to severe weather, fire, flood, mudslides, earthquakes, war, labor disputes, strikes, political unrest, natural or nuclear disaster, epidemics, World Health Organization’s advisories and/or alerts, Center for Disease Control’s advisories and/or alerts, U.S. State Department’s advisories and/or alerts, any order of any local, provincial or federal government authority, interruption of power Services, terrorism or any other causes beyond the control of MicroSignals.

However, as MicroSignals is an entity incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware, with its registered office located at 1111B S Governors Ave STE 6454 Dover, Delaware 19904 USA, any claims are not admissible through the aforementioned ODR platform. For this reason, in order to allow Us to give You assistance with regard to the Service purchased on our Platform or to solve any problem thereto, We invite You to contact our Customer Service Team using the contacts provided in the Support section available in your MyArea at www.farera.com.

21.5. By agreeing to arbitration, both You and MicroSignals waive any rights to a jury trial or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney general action, or any representative proceeding.

Annex 1: MicroSignals Own Services
A) Priority Cash Back
If You purchase Priority Cash Back at the time of your original reservation, and in the event of an involuntary cancellation of your flight initiated by the airline, MicroSignals commits to processing your refund directly.
This expedited process will be initiated without the need to wait for the completion of the transfer of funds from the airline to MicroSignals, and is contingent upon confirmation from the airline or the relevant Service Provider of the exact refund amount.
MicroSignals reserves a technical processing period to issue the refund to the Customer. This process may take up to three (3) working days from the confirmation from the airline or the relevant Service Provider of the exact refund amount.
Priority Cash Back applies exclusively to the flight ticket with which it was originally purchased and must be acquired at the same time as the original booking. All service fees, as detailed in the terms of service of both MicroSignals and the Service Provider(s), remain applicable.
The Customer will not be entitled to the benefits granted by the Priority Cash Back service in the following cases:
Expired Flight Tickets: The service cannot be applied to flight tickets that have already expired.
Already Processed Refunds: If the airline has already processed or is in the process of refunding the Customer directly, the Priority Cash Back service cannot be applied.
Airline's Operational Cessation or Bankruptcy: In the event an airline involved in the Customer's flight ceases operations or enters bankruptcy.
Force Majeure Events: Unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of either party that prevent the fulfillment of obligations under these Terms & Conditions. Should any such events occur, Priority Cash Back will not apply.
B) Premium Service
Premium Service is an ancillary service provided by MicroSignals, and can be optionally purchased only alongside your airline ticket.
It is important to understand that Premium Service is not an insurance product, nor should it be construed as such.
By purchasing Premium Service the Customer will be entitled to receive assistance with the following post-sales support services without having to pay MicroSignals’ service fees:
Booking Cancellation: Includes all instances where the Customer opts to cancel their reservation voluntarily. Eligibility for refunds will be determined according to the airline's established rates and policies.
Changes to your itinerary: Include all instances where the Customer initiates requests for alterations to travel dates, times, passenger names, or destinations. These adjustments will remain bound by the airline's regulations and policies.
Data Correction: Includes all instances where the Customer requests corrections related to incorrect entries of names, birth dates, or details on identity documents within the reservation. Please note that this request is subject to the conditions of the airline.
The list of up to date service fees is detailed in section 11 of these T&Cs.
Be aware that any modifications and/or refunds are governed by the airline's policies and fare rules. There may be additional fees imposed by the airline, over which we, acting as intermediaries, have no control.
The purchase of Premium Service also ensures that post-sales support requests made by the Customer are prioritized over requests from customers that did not purchase Premium Service or other services granting a similar priority. However, due to critical operational needs, such as imminent flight departures, this priority may not always apply. In these limited cases, the urgency of a request may necessitate handling other requests first to address critical operational requirements.
It’s important to note that the purchase of Premium Service does not alter the substantive terms and conditions applicable to the customer's requests, including the Platform’s Terms and Conditions available on www.farera.com, the airline’s refund policies, modification fees imposed by third parties, or the availability of services. All requests are subject to the original terms and conditions established by the service or product providers.
The company's standard operating hours still apply to orders with Premium Service and resolution times for Customer’s requests may vary based on the complexity of the issue, involvement of third parties, and external factors beyond the company's control.
Please note that Premium Service can be sold as part of a bundle including services provided by third-party suppliers. These third-party services are governed by their own Terms and Conditions, which are presented to You at the time of purchase. MicroSignals acts strictly as an intermediary for these third-party services and assumes no responsibility for their performance or any issues arising from them. Our role is limited to facilitating your access to these third-party offerings, and any concerns or disputes related to these services should be addressed directly with the respective service providers.
C) Flexible Ticket
Introduction to the Flexible Ticket Service
Customers who purchase Flexible Ticket will have access to a waiver of Airline-Imposed Fees for changes in flight dates and/or times. Since the Flexible Ticket is a service provided by Us, it's important to note that this is not accessible through direct contact with the airline. Therefore, all change requests using the service must be processed and notified using the Customer’s personal area (“MyArea”).
Specifically, Customers looking to modify the date and/or time of a flight booked via the Platform (subject to airline policies allowing such modifications) will receive a full waiver of the fee normally charged by the airline for changing reservations. Should the cost of the new flight charged by the airline exceed that of the original, the price difference will be borne by the Customer.
Kindly note that the Flexible Ticket is a unique service offered by MicroSignals, and the availability of the Customer's selected new flight is not guaranteed. Confirmation of availability will be provided by the airline and communicated through the Customer’s personal area (“MyArea”).
Flexible Ticket is non-refundable.
Flexible Ticket Flight Change Conditions
The new flight must be operated by the same airline, covering the same original routes (changes in departure and arrival locations are not allowed).
Requests for changes must be made no later than 72 hours before the scheduled departure time of the initial outbound flight.
If You wish to request a schedule change for your flight, please note that You cannot choose a new flight departing within 72 hours from the time you submit your request to Us.
Flexible Ticket can only be used once by the Customer.
In the event the original flight is canceled by either the airline or the Customer, Flexible Ticket cannot be used, nor can a refund be claimed if the withdrawal period has passed.
If the new flight, as modified by date and/or time, is canceled by either the airline or the Customer, the cost of Flexible Ticket will not be refundable.
Using the Flexible Ticket to Change your Flight
Customers willing to change their flight must do so no later than 72 hours before their initial flight's planned departure. The steps are as follows:
Access your personal area (“MyArea”) on the website www.farera.com by entering your email and Order ID. (The Order ID is a unique identifier of your flight booking that is sent to you via email after successfully purchasing a flight ticket on the Platform).
Navigate to the “Extra Services” section and make a request using the Schedule Change service.
MicroSignals' Customer Support Team will contact You to confirm your request for flight change. Following this, You will receive an email containing a quote for the change. This quote will detail any potential fare differences levied by the airline in case the cost of the new flight exceeds that of the original one.
Once the airline has approved the change, the updated itinerary will be confirmed to you through Your personal area (“MyArea”). Please note that it might take up to 48 hours for our Customer Support Team to process your request due to the time needed to coordinate with the airline to determine the new schedule based on availability.
The flight change is considered finalized only after You receive a confirmation email from Us. If You haven't received this confirmation, please reach out to our Customer Support Team.
In cases where a booking includes multiple passengers, Flexible Ticket may be activated individually for one or more passengers. Following the initial activation, whether it applies to all passengers on the booking or only a subset thereof, and whether it applies to all legs of the trip or only a subset of the legs, Flexible Ticket is deemed to have been used. Consequently, no further changes can be made under these terms and conditions.
During the change process with Flexible Ticket, it’s the responsibility of the Customer to ensure timely and accurate communication. Promptly providing complete and correct information is essential for a smooth and efficient rebooking experience. Delays in communication or inaccuracies in the details that You provide can lead to potential delays or issues in processing your request and/or to additional costs. We encourage Customers to carefully review all information before submission and to respond swiftly to any inquiries from our Customer Support Team to help facilitate a successful change.
Flexible Ticket Service Limitations and Force Majeure Conditions
By using Flexible Ticket, the Customer grants the Company authority to modify the original flight booking on their behalf.
The departure time of the rescheduled flight must be at least 48 hours after the time of the change request.
Changes to individual segments or legs of a multi-stop flight are not permitted.
Cabin upgrades or changes to a higher booking class on the same flight are not allowed.
Flexible Ticket is limited to changes in date and time only. Any other modifications (e.g., name changes, route alterations, additional baggage or seating requests) will incur standard fees, charges, and fare adjustments from the airline.
If a flight change is confirmed, Flexible Ticket cannot be reapplied, even if the Customer does not check in for the rescheduled flight. Only one journey modification is allowed per Customer. Should a second change of date be required, the Customer will incur all standard penalties, fees, and fare adjustments associated with such a change.
The Company assumes no responsibility for any additional services (e.g., luggage and seat reservations) booked by the Customer directly with the airline.
In case post-change conditions result in ineligibility for previously applicable special fares (such as fares for infants), the Customer is responsible for paying the difference.
The Customer acknowledges and agrees that Flexible Ticket will not be usable under the following circumstances:
Involuntary Cancellation by Airline: If any of the flights within the Customer's reservation is canceled by the operating airline.
Airline's Operational Cessation or Bankruptcy: In the event that any airline involved in one of the Customer's flights suspends operations or declares bankruptcy.
Force Majeure Events: This refers to unforeseeable events beyond the control of either party, which prevent the fulfillment of obligations under these T&Cs. These events, occurring at either the departure or arrival locations, include, but are not limited to, natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes), war, terrorism, civil unrest, epidemics, pandemics (as declared by relevant local or international authorities), nuclear incidents, significant governmental actions, strikes, civil unrest, looting, and vandalism.
In the occurrence of any of the conditions listed in Clause 4.9 above, the Customer looking to modify the date and/or time of a flight booked via any MicroSignals website (subject to airline policies allowing such modifications) will no longer be entitled to receive a full waiver of the fee normally charged by the airline for changing reservations.
D) Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR)
Introduction to the Cancel for Any Reason
Cancel for Any Reason (“CFAR”) is an ancillary service provided exclusively by MicroSignals, and can be optionally purchased only alongside your airline ticket.
It is important to understand that CFAR is not an insurance product, nor should it be construed as such. As a distinctive offering from MicroSignals, Cancel for Any Reason enables Customers to cancel their air ticket bookings under specific terms detailed in this document.
CFAR is non-refundable.
CFAR Service Description
The Customer who purchased CFAR will have access to an electronic voucher (the "Voucher") equivalent to 90% of the cost of the air ticket originally purchased.
The Voucher can be redeemed exclusively on farera.com to complete a new booking, subject to the terms and conditions outlined in these T&Cs.
The Customer who purchased CFAR has the option to either:
i) Keep the original air ticket, traveling on the originally scheduled date. If this option is chosen, the Voucher is automatically forfeited and can no longer be claimed or redeemed by the Customer.
ii) Cancel the original air ticket and request the Voucher from MicroSignals, provided that the cancellation is requested no later than 48 hours prior to the initial flight's departure. The Voucher can be used by the Customer to arrange a new flight booking, within the scope of the conditions and procedures outlined in these T&Cs.
CFAR Terms and Limitations
Cancellation of the original air ticket can also be requested for single passengers within a reservation. In such instances, the Voucher's value will be adjusted proportionally to the number of passengers who opt to cancel their booking.
The cancellation request always applies to the entire booking and cannot be requested for individual segments of the journey.
The Voucher amounts to 90% of the value of the canceled air ticket, inclusive of taxes and fees imposed by the carrier, provided the booking and purchase were made on the Platform.
The calculation to determine the Voucher amount excludes any additional cost incurred by the Customer both at the time of the original booking and post-purchase. Examples of these costs that are excluded from the Voucher amount include, but are not limited to: the price paid for the CFAR, any service fee charged by MicroSignals, the price of any extra service added during the booking process (including but not limited to: additional luggage, Flexible Ticket, Premium Service, web check-in assistance, special transportation needs, etc. where available on the Platform), and the price of any other add-on added during or after the reservation.
The maximum value of the Voucher cannot exceed $5,000.00 per booking, regardless of the number of passengers requesting cancellation. In cases where the booking undergoes changes leading to a fare increase (like changes in travel date, passenger name changes, adding luggage, seat selection, etc.), the Voucher’s value will still be calculated on the original, unaltered ticket price.
The Voucher, as outlined in these T&Cs, is not recognized as a credit instrument. Its features and operational procedures are detailed within these T&Cs. Additional conditions, which are intended to complement the provisions in these T&Cs, may be presented on the Voucher itself or on the email accompanying the Voucher.
The Voucher remains valid for 12 months from the date the email with the Voucher’s details is sent to the Customer. Upon the expiration of this period, the Voucher cannot be redeemed and used by the Customer anymore, and no rights thereto can any longer be asserted by the latter against MicroSignals. The Company will then proceed to annul the Voucher and exclude it from its financial records, with no opportunity for the Customer to dispute this action.
The Voucher is not eligible for use in conjunction with other vouchers, cashback schemes, or any other promotional offer and/or discount.
With the issuance of the Voucher, the provision of the CFAR service by MicroSignals will be considered to have been fulfilled.
The Voucher can be used by the Customer multiple times until its total value is exhausted.
The Voucher can only be redeemed in conjunction with the email address that was used for the original ticket purchase.Additionally, the voucher is redeemable exclusively for booking new flights for passengers listed in the original reservation who canceled their flight using CFAR. CFAR is not applicable for passengers not included in the original booking, nor for passengers included in the original booking whose flights were not canceled using CFAR.
It’s important to note that by canceling the original air ticket and accepting the Voucher from Us, You agree to forego all rights associated with your original flight ticket, assigning them to MicroSignals. This means that, by asking Us to cancel your flight booking and accepting the Voucher in return, You expressly accept that We gain all rights related to the canceled flight ticket. This also entitles Us to exercise your rights with the airline that issued the flight ticket. This means that, once You received the Voucher, You are no longer entitled to make use of the air transportation service. Please note that if We cannot successfully exercise the rights assigned to Us with regard to the flight ticket, because the air carrier's refund solution is non-transferable (e.g. a nominative voucher), We might forward the air carrier's refund to You instead of the Voucher. If the amount of the air carrier's (non-transferable) refund is lower than the value of Voucher calculated in accordance with the rules detailed in this document, We will issue a Voucher for the difference.
To cancel the original flight ticket and request the Voucher under the CFAR service, it is mandatory that the Customer and the passengers have not completed the check-in process for any segment of their flights. This condition applies irrespective of the method used for check-in (online or at the airport). If the Customer or the passenger has already checked in for their flight, the right to cancel the flight and request the Voucher as per these T&Cs is forfeited.
Canceling Your Flight and Activating CFAR
If You intend to cancel the original air ticket and You want to request the Voucher from Us as per section 2.4 of these T&C, You must do so no later than 48 hours before the initial flight's planned departure. Requests to cancel a flight and using CFAR received within 48 hours of the initial flight's planned departure, as well as those received after the departure time, will be considered invalid. This will lead to the forfeiture of the rights to use CFAR and to receive the Voucher.
In order to use CFAR and request the Voucher, You are required to follow these steps:
Access your personal area (“MyArea”) on the website www.farera.com by entering your email and Order ID. (The Order ID is a unique identifier of your flight booking that is sent to you via email after successfully purchasing a flight ticket on the Platform).
Navigate to the Extra Services section and make a request using the Cancel Reservation service.
MicroSignals' Customer Support Team will contact You to guide You through the cancellation process and to inform You about refund options (including the Voucher). After this interaction, You will receive a message from Us requesting You to confirm your Cancellation.
Upon receipt of your confirmation, in case You will have selected the Voucher as refund option, this will be made available to You through your MyArea on the Platform within 48 hours.
If You encounter any difficulty accessing the Cancel Reservation service through your MyArea, whether due to technical issues or other reasons, We invite You to submit your cancellation request via the Support section instead. Upon receiving your request through this channel our Customer Support Team will ensure it is processed in line with the T&Cs governing the CFAR service.
CFAR Limitations and Force Majeure Conditions
The Customer acknowledges and agrees that the CFAR service, allowing for the cancellation of an air ticket in exchange for a Voucher, will not be available under the following circumstances:
Involuntary Cancellation by Airline: If any of the flights within the Customer's reservation is canceled by the operating airline.
Airline's Operational Cessation or Bankruptcy: In the event that any airline involved in one of the Customer's flights suspends operations or declares bankruptcy.
Force Majeure Events: This refers to unforeseeable events beyond the control of either party, which prevent the fulfillment of obligations under these T&Cs. These events, occurring at either the departure or arrival locations, include, but are not limited to, natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes), war, terrorism, civil unrest, epidemics, pandemics (as declared by relevant local or international authorities), nuclear incidents, significant governmental actions, strikes, civil unrest, looting, and vandalism.
In the occurrence of any of the conditions listed in this Clause 5 the option to cancel the original air ticket and receive a Voucher through CFAR becomes unavailable, and any fees paid for the CFAR are non-refundable.
CFAR Fraud Prevention and Right to Limit Access
MicroSignals reserves the right to monitor the use of the CFAR service and the Voucher for any activities that We, in our sole discretion, suspect to be fraudulent, deceitful, or in violation of these T&Cs. This includes, but is not limited to, instances where We believe a customer is exploiting CFAR or the Voucher in a manner that constitutes fraudulent behavior, manipulation, or misuse intended to unjustly benefit at the expense of MicroSignals or other users. Should We determine, based on reasonable grounds, that such activities are occurring, We retain the right to take appropriate actions. These actions may include, but are not limited to, denying access to CFAR, cancelling the Voucher already issued, restricting or suspending the user's access to the Platform, and pursuing legal action. These measures are vital to maintain the integrity of our services and protect the rights and interests of all our users and stakeholders.
E) Flexible Traveler
Introduction to Flexible Traveler
Flexible Traveler is an ancillary service offered directly by MicroSignals. It permits the substitution of the passenger named in the original booking with another individual, under the conditions set forth herein. This service is not an insurance product and shall not be interpreted as such.
Flexible Traveler must be purchased during the original booking process and applies on a per-passenger basis. It is valid exclusively for the passenger for whom it was purchased. It cannot be transferred or applied to other passengers included in the booking.
The service must be activated no later than seventy-two (72) hours prior to the scheduled departure time of the original flight. Requests received after this deadline will not be processed.
Flexible Traveler is non-refundable.
Flexible Traveler Scope of Service
Upon activation of Flexible Traveler, and subject to availability, cost, and timing constraints determined by the flight supplier(s), MicroSignals will evaluate whether the named passenger on the ticket can be changed directly through the flight supplier(s), or whether it is necessary to cancel the original ticket and issue a new one for the replacement passenger.
In cases where a new ticket must be issued, MicroSignals will proceed to book the same flight (same airline, origin, destination, date, and time) for the new passenger, subject to availability. The Customer shall be responsible for paying any fare difference between the original booking and the new ticket.
In such cases, ancillary services associated with the original ticket will not be transferred to the new booking.
If the name change is permitted by the flight supplier(s) but rebooking the same flight for the replacement passenger is not possible, the Customer will have the option to retain the original booking without activating the Flexible Traveler service.
Flexible Traveler Incompatibility with Other Services
Upon activation of Flexible Traveler, all other flexibility services offered directly by MicroSignals and associated with the original booking—including but not limited to Flexible Ticket and Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR)—shall be deemed null and void.
These services will not be reinstated, transferred, or applied to the new booking created pursuant to the Flexible Traveler service.
No refunds, vouchers, or compensation shall be due in respect of the forfeited services referenced in clause 3.1.
Limitations of Flexible Traveler
Flexible Traveler may be used only once per eligible passenger.
The new ticket issued pursuant to Flexible Traveler must be for the same airline, same origin, same destination, and the same scheduled flight as the original booking. The only permitted modification shall be the substitution of the passenger.
Flexible Traveler may not be used in the following circumstances:
Involuntary Cancellation by the Flight Supplier(s): If any segment of the Customer’s reservation is canceled by the flight supplier(s), Flexible Traveler shall no longer be available for use.
Operational Cessation or Bankruptcy of Flight Supplier(s): If any flight supplier involved in the booking suspends operations or declares bankruptcy, the Flexible Traveler service shall become unavailable.
Force Majeure Events: Flexible Traveler cannot be used in the event of unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of either party that prevent the fulfillment of obligations under these Terms and Conditions. Such events include, but are not limited to: natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes, floods, hurricanes), war, terrorism, civil unrest, epidemics, pandemics (as declared by relevant local or international authorities), nuclear incidents, significant governmental actions, strikes, looting, and vandalism.
In the occurrence of any of the events listed in Clause 4.3, the Flexible Traveler service shall be considered unavailable, and any amounts paid for it shall remain non-refundable.
Fraud Prevention and Right to Limit Access
MicroSignals reserves the right to monitor use of the Flexible Traveler service for suspected fraud, abuse, or misuse in violation of these Terms. If such conduct is reasonably identified, MicroSignals may cancel any ticket or voucher issued under the service, deny further access to Flexible Traveler, suspend the Customer’s Platform access, and take legal action if necessary.
