A "no-show" occurs when the customer does not appear at the pickup location within the waiting period without prior notice. In case of a no-show:

  • The booking will be treated as cancelled
  • No refund will be provided on the advance amount paid
  • The driver will wait for the complimentary waiting period before leaving

If you are running late, please contact us immediately at +91 88949 15859 to avoid a no-show cancellation.

6. Pilgrimage Season Bookings

Bookings made for pilgrimage destinations (Manahesh Sahib, Char Dham, Vaishno Devi, etc.) during peak pilgrimage seasons are subject to stricter cancellation terms:

  • Cancellations more than 7 days before travel: 20% cancellation charge
  • Cancellations 3–7 days before travel: 50% cancellation charge
  • Cancellations less than 3 days before travel: 100% cancellation charge (no refund)

This policy applies due to the high demand and limited vehicle availability during pilgrimage seasons.

7. Force Majeure Cancellation

In the event of cancellation due to force majeure (landslides, heavy snowfall, floods, road closures, government restrictions, natural disasters, or other events beyond our control):

  • If the trip has not started: A credit note or partial refund (after deducting actual costs incurred) will be provided.
  • If the trip has started and is interrupted: A proportional refund for the uncompleted portion will be provided after deducting actual costs.
  • No full refund is guaranteed in force majeure situations, as costs may have already been incurred.
