Your travel reservation change requests can only be handled by the
travel agency you made the booking with. Please contact them for any
change you wish to make. Please always remember to keep the travel
agency contact details in case you need to contact them for changes
in your reservation.
Can I cancel my
reservation?
Of course, you can. The cancellation process can be different depending
on the travel agency rules for cancellation, however these are two
of the most accepted procedures to cancel your reservation:
- At the end of the booking process, in the last page when you have
confirmed your booking and you have received a confirmation number,
you can cancel the reservation by clicking on "Cancel the reservation"
on the left-hand side at the bottom of the page.

log in to the online travel agency you made the reservation with,
and click on "Cancel an existing reservation" on the left-hand
side at the bottom of the page, then enter where asked the confirmation
number of the reservation you wish to cancel.
Note: Some agencies do not allow online cancellation. Please contact
them directly for cancellations.
Can
I book and buy travel for another person than myself?
Some agencies may allow the traveller to be a different person from
the credit card holder. Nonetheless, we advise you to contact your
travel agent to be sure that your agency allows this possibility.
In case it does allow such possibility, you would need to log a profile
with the data of person who will travel and include in the credit
card section the personal credit card name and data of the credit
card holder.
I forgot my password/traveller
ID, what do I do?
Your profile data is handled by and stored under the online reservation
system of the travel agency you signed up with. The easiest solution
is to create a new profile including a new traveller ID and password.
But you can also contact your travel agency for more information.
Can I send a
request via e-mail to make my travel arrangements?
Amadeus.net provides you with online access to your travel agency.
We provide a unique travel reservation system that allows you to process

you to send e-mail requests as you can make your reservation at your
convenience in real time.

Is my personal and private data securely
handled?
|  |
|
Is my credit
card information secure?
Amadeus.net provides you with the industry-standard Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) technology that encrypts any information that is
transferred across the Internet from your computer to the amadeus.net
server. This makes your credit card information as secure as possible.
What is SSL?
Amadeus.net uses SSL (Secured Sockets Layer) for
secure transmissions. SSL applies encryption to provide confidentiality
between your PC and the amadeus.net server. The definition of encryption
is: "… a process for scrambling data to prevent illicit entry into
a system… or interception of information as it travels over the
network." That's why you must use an SSL enabled browser to make
a reservation with amadeus.net. When your data is transmitted over
the Internet, it is encrypted at the sending end and then decrypted
at the receiving end. All information is kept on a secure server
and is protected by a firewall. As an added precaution, the firewall
is monitored for security breach attempts.
How do I know
if the connection is secure?
The common standard in the Internet to signal a secure site
is a closed lock at the bottom of the browser. As long as the lock is
displayed closed your information is secure and encrypted to avoid abuse.
If you click the secure transaction link and still cannot see the closed
lock, the reason may be that the window in nested in another frame.
To make sure you are under a secure connection, right-click on the central
part of the window and choose "Properties" (IExplorer) or
"Open in a new window" (Netscape). There you can see if the
connection is secure or not by checking that the URL starts with https://...
