Through an online top-up transaction on the website or by entering Tomorrowland Winter, visitors automatically accept the Cashless terms and conditions set herein.

24.4 Refunds
With the exception of the Bonus Pearls and Pearls pre-loaded by the Organiser, cashless Pearls can only be refunded after the festival. As a result, the Organiser will not refund any Pearls during the Festival (even if a Visitor is denied admission to the Festival).
All refunds are subject to a refund fee.
In the case of a back-up scenario, the Organiser will propose an alternative payment method for Visitors. The Organisation reserves the right not to refund any Pearls.
24.4.1 Automatic refunds
All online top-ups or transactions through the website are subject to automatic refunds if implemented by international brands. The international brands are: Bancontact, iDeal, VISA and Mastercard. The Organisation reserves the right to add or remove payment methods if necessary.
The Organiser will strive to initiate automatic refunds within a period of 7 days following the end of the Festival. That timeframe is subject to possible delays that are beyond the Organiser’s control. The refunds will be paid using the same method as the one used for the online top-up. The time at which the payment is visible on the proof of the electronic payment method depends on the currency, the country and the required processing time where the payment processor is based.
Refunds that qualify for an automatic refund are effected automatically. The Organiser is not able to manually block certain payments, nor is the Organiser authorised to change the payment method of the refund.
24.4.2 Manual refunds
Manual refunds will be applicable to all amounts that are topped-up on the cashless support during the festival.

This timeframe is subject to possible delays beyond the Organiser’s control. The refunds will be conducted using the payment method indicated by the Visitor on the “manual refund form”.
Because manual refunds are processed individually, there is a minimum processing period between the notification from the cashless system and the effective payment. This processing period will take approximately three banking days. The Organiser cannot be held liable within this minimum processing period. The processing period depends on the selected refund method.
Visitors are responsible for providing the correct refund information to the Organiser. If Visitors do not provide the Organiser with the correct information, the Organiser reserves the right to not carry out the refund.
NON SEPA refunds are subject to an additional bank fee of € 7.00, which will be deducted from the amount of the refund.

25.5.2 The contract for organising travel is formed when the traveller receives the written confirmation of the booked trip from the tour operator, whether or not via the travel agent acting on behalf of the tour operator.
If the contents of the order form deviate from those of the travel confirmation or if there is no confirmation within 21 days after the order form is signed, the traveller may presume that the trip was not booked and is entitled to the immediate refund of all amounts already paid.
25.6 Price
25.6.1 The price agreed in the contract cannot be revised unless this is expressly provided for in the contract, along with the precise calculation method, and in so far as the revision is the result of a change in:
a) the exchange rates applied to the travel and/or
b) the transportation costs, including fuel costs, and/or
c) levies and taxes owed for certain services.
In that event, a condition is that said changes will also give cause to reduce the price.
25.6.2 In no event may the price set in the contract be increased within the 20 calendar days that precede the departure date.
25.6.3 If the increase exceeds 10% of the total price, the traveller may terminate the contract without owing compensation. In this event, the traveller is entitled to the immediate refund of all the amounts he has paid to the tour operator.
25.7 Payment for the trip
25.7.1 Unless expressly agreed otherwise, when signing the order form the traveller pays part of the total travel sum as provided in the special travel terms and conditions by way of advance.
25.7.2 If, after being notified that he is in default, the traveller fails to pay the advance or travel sum required, the tour operator and/or the travel agent will have the right to automatically terminate the contract with the traveller, with the costs being borne by the traveller.
25.7.3 At the moment of purchase, a prepayment of at least 50% up to a maximum of €2500 with a debit or credit card will become due. Bank transfer is not possible.
Unless agreed otherwise on the order form, the traveller will pay the balance no later 14 calendar days after the booking date and on condition that he receives the written confirmation of the trip and/or the travel documents in advance or at the same time. In case of non-payment of the remaining amount, prepayment will not be refunded. There will be a 75% cancellation fee up to 30 November 2018 and a 100% cancellation fee from 1 December 2018.
25.8 Transferability of the booking
25.8.1 The traveller may, prior to December 15 2018, let the travel agent change a name in the package to the name of a third party against for a fixed fee of €350, who must comply with all conditions of the contract for the organisation of the travel.
25.8.2 The transferring traveller and the transferee are jointly and severally liable for the payment of the total price of the trip and the costs of the transfer.
25.9 Other changes by the traveller
If the traveller requests a different change, the tour operator and/or the travel agent may charge the costs incurred as a result.
25.10 Change by the tour operator prior to departure
25.10.1 If, prior to the trip, one of the essential elements of the contract cannot be executed, the tour operator must inform the traveller of that as soon as possible, but in any event prior to departure and inform him of the possibility of terminating the contract free of charge, unless he accepts the tour operator’s proposed change.
25.10.2 The traveller must inform the travel agent or the tour operator of his decision as soon as possible, but in any event prior to departure.
25.10.3 If the traveller accepts the change, a new contract or an addendum to the contract must be compiled announcing the changes made and the effect thereof on the price.
25.10.4 If the traveller does not accept the change, he may request the application of Article
25.11 Termination by the tour operator prior to departure
25.11.1 If, prior to the commencement of the trip, the tour operator terminates the contract due to a circumstance that can be attributed to the traveller, the traveller has the choice between:
- either accepting a new trip offered of similar or better quality, without having to pay a surcharge: if the trip offered as a replacement is of a lesser quality, the tour operator must refund the price difference as soon as possible;
- or the refund, as soon as possible, of all amounts he paid pursuant to the contract.
25.11.2 Where applicable, the traveller can also claim compensation for the non-performance of the contract, unless: the tour operator cancels the trip because the minimum number of travellers stipulated in the contract and necessary for the trip, was not reached and the traveller is informed of this in writing within the period stated in the contract and at least 15 calendar days prior to the departure date; the cancellation is the result of force majeure, which does not include overbooking. Force majeure means abnormal and unforeseeable circumstances which independently of the wish of the party invoking it and the consequences of which could not be avoided despite all precautionary measures.
25.12 Full or partial non-performance of the trip
25.12.1 If it turns out during the trip that some of the services to which the contract pertains cannot be performed, the tour operator will take all necessary measures to offer the traveller appropriate alternatives free of charge with a view to the continuation of the trip.
25.12.2 If there is a difference between the intended services and those actually provided, the tour operator will compensate the traveller for this difference.
25.12.3 If such an arrangement proves to be impossible or if the traveller does not accept said alternative for sound reasons, the tour operator must provide the traveller with an equivalent means of transport that takes him to the departure location and, as the case may be, compensate the traveller.
25.13 Termination by the traveller
The traveller may terminate the contract in full or in part at all times. If the traveller terminates the contract due to a circumstance that can be attributed to him, he will compensate the damage that the tour operator and/or mediator suffers as a result of the termination. Alternatively, the damages may be stipulated in the special conditions or in the travel schedule, but may not exceed 100% of the price of the trip.
25.14 Liability of the tour operator
25.14.1 The tour operator is liable for the proper performance of the contract in accordance with the expectations that the traveller may reasonably have on the basis of the provisions of the tour operator's contract, and for the obligations arising from the contract, irrespective of whether these obligations are to be carried out by the tour operator or by other service providers, without prejudice to the tour operator's right to hold these other service providers liable.
25.14.2 The tour operator is as liable for omissions by its employees and representatives acting in the performance of their function as it is for its own acts and omissions.
25.14.3 If an international treaty is applicable to a service included in the contract, the tour operator’s liability will be excluded or limited in accordance with that treaty.
25.14.4 In so far as the tour operator itself does not provide the services provided for in the travel contract, its liability for material damage and compensation for the loss of enjoyment of the trip will be limited to twice the travel sum.
25.14.5 For the rest, Articles 18 and 19 of the Act of 16 February 1994 are applicable.
25.15 Liability of the traveller
The traveller is liable for any damage suffered by the tour operator and/or travel agent, their employees and/or their representatives as a result of his error, or if he has failed to fulfil his contractual obligations. The error will be assessed according to the traveller’s ordinary behaviour.
25.16 Complaints procedure
Prior to departure:
25.16.1 If the traveller has a complaint before departure, he must submit it to the travel agent and/or tour operator as soon as possible by registered letter or by recorded delivery.
During the trip:
25.16.2 The traveller must report complaints during the execution of the contract as soon as possible on the spot, in an appropriate and evidentiary manner, so that a solution can be sought.
For this purpose, he must - in this order - contact a representative of the tour operator or a representative of the travel agent, or the travel agent directly or, lastly, the tour operator directly.
After the trip:
25.16.3 If a complaint is not satisfactorily solved on the spot or if it was impossible for the traveller to make a complaint on the spot, he must lodge a complaint with the travel agent or, failing that, with the tour operator by registered letter or by recorded delivery no later than one month after the end of the travel contract.
25.17 Reconciliation procedure
25.17.1 In the event of a dispute, the parties must first attempt to mutually reach an amicable settlement.
25.17.2 If this attempt to reach an amicable settlement fails within a period of one to three months, each of the parties involved may request the secretariat of the Reconciliation Unit of the Travel Disputes Committee to initiate reconciliation proceedings. All parties must agree to that.
25.17.3 To this end, the secretariat will provide the parties with an information brochure, reconciliation rules and an “agreement for reconciliation". The reconciliation proceedings will commence once the parties involved have completed and signed this contract (jointly or separately), and as soon as each party has paid an amount of € 50.
25.17.4 In accordance with the simple procedure described in the rules, an impartial conciliator will subsequently contact the parties in order to seek a fair reconciliation between the parties.
25.17.5 Any settlement reached will be laid down in a binding written agreement.

25.18 Arbitration or Court
25.18.1 If no reconciliation proceedings are instituted or if these fail, the claim will be under the jurisdiction of the competent court of Antwerp.
25.18.2 In respect of claimed amounts starting at € 1,250, each defendant has a period of 10 calendar days to refuse the arbitration proceedings request by the claimant by registered letter, following which the dispute can be brought before the ordinary court. For amounts below € 1,250 the option to refuse the arbitration proceedings is only available to the traveller.
25.18.3 These arbitration proceedings are regulated by dispute regulations and can only be instituted after no amicable settlement can be reached within a period of four months following the (envisaged) end of the trip (or possibly starting from the performance that gave rise to the dispute). Disputes related to physical injury can only be adjudicated by the courts.
25.18.4 The arbitral tribunal, comprised equal numbers of representatives, will hand down an award in accordance with the dispute regulations that is binding and conclusive. This award cannot be appealed.

ARTICLE 26 - SUNWEB SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
26.1 Formation and contents of the agreement
26.1.1 Formation
When you have provided all data and agreed to the general and special terms and conditions, Sunweb.be considers this to be a definitive reservation. The special terms and conditions will be applied in the event of changes and cancellations. Sunweb.be also considers a request for a reservation a definitive reservation. After the formation of the agreement, the traveller will receive a written or electronic confirmation, possibly in the form of an invoice.
26.1.2 Revocation
The tour operator’s offer is without obligation and if necessary, may be revoked by it. Revocation must take place as soon as possible, but no later than eight office hours after acceptance, stating reasons. Revocation due to correction of errors in the calculation of the travel sum is permitted. Revocation due to an increase of the travel sum must comply with the requirements in Article 26.4.
26.1.3 Travel time
If, in the event of trips that include transportation, the travel time and duration of the stay is stated in days in the publication, the days of departure and arrival will be considered whole days, regardless of the departure and arrival times. In some instances, the actual duration of the stay at the destination may be fewer days than stated in the publication.
26.2 Travel sum
26.2.1 Prices
The prices stated on the Sunweb.be website (www.sunweb.be) are per person (in the event of travel by air, inclusive of airport tax) and are only valid if the minimum number of travellers is reached. Lockers and the like must be paid on site. The stated prices of these local costs are an indication and may vary at the destination. The prices are determined on the basis of prices, taxes and exchanges rate of October 2010.
The costs of the charter flights are based on a fuel cost of € 520 per megaton. A price revision will be effected in the event of an increase or decrease starting at 15%.
This means that if the fuel cost is higher than € 598 per megaton, the following surcharge will apply. For each additional € 20 that is exceeded, the following surcharge again applies (a second surcharge will be calculated for € 618 per megaton, third surcharge for € 638 per megaton, etc.)
If the fuel is cheaper than € 442 per megaton, the following amount will be applied as a discount. For each additional decrease of the fuel price of € 20, this again applies (a second discount will be granted at € 422 per megaton, third discount at € 402 per megaton, etc.).
26.2.2 Change of travel sum
Sunweb.be has the right to increase the travel sum up to 20 days prior to the departure date (in the case of own transport prices before the date of arrival of the first stay booked) in connection with changes to the transportation costs (including fuel costs), taxes, levies owed and the applicable exchange rates.
26.3 Bookings and payment
26.3.1 Joint and several liability
The person who books the trip is jointly and severally (also for all other people for whom he/she books). In the case of minor travellers, the consent of parents or guardians must be demonstrated. All traffic (including payments) between the traveller(s) and the travel agent is solely between the person who booked the trip.
26.3.2 Changes
After the invoice is prepared, you may ask for a name change before December 15 2018. For each name change € 350 of change-over costs will be charged. A postponement of the departure date or a reduction of the number of paying passengers will be considered a (partial) cancellation to which the cancellation terms and conditions are applicable
26.3.3 Cancellation
Cancellations must be notified in writing within three days after the event as a result of which the trip is cancelled (in full or in part). Bear in mind that a cancellation is never free of charge. This is only the case if you have taken out cancellation insurance and if you have a valid right to a partial refund of the travel sum. Sunweb.be can only process a cancellation if it has been submitted in writing by the person who booked the trip. A fellow traveller is not jointly and severally liable and can therefore not report a cancellation. For a complete overview and specific cancellation terms and conditions, see the special terms and conditions.
26.3.4 Cancellation costs
If an agreement is cancelled, the traveller will owe the following cancellation costs in addition to any reservations costs:
a. in the event of cancellation prior to 1 December 2018: 75%
b. in the event of cancellation from 1 December 2018: 100% of the travel sum.
In the event of a cancellation, the price of the insurance and the policy costs are always charged in addition to the cancellation costs, unless these amount to the entire travel sum.
26.3.5 Payment
The advance is 50% of the travel sum, with a maximum of € 2,500. The balance must be paid to Sunweb.be within 14 calendar days after booking.
If you book within six weeks prior to departure, you must transfer the total amount in one go.
If you fail to pay in a timely fashion, Sunweb.be will inform you of that in writing. You will then have the opportunity to pay the amount owing within seven working days. If payment is still not made, the contract will be deemed to have been cancelled. Sunweb.be has the right to charge the cancellation costs owed for that.
26.3.6 Interest and costs
Each unpaid invoice automatically entails, thus without an obligation to notify default, interest of 12% per annum as from the invoice date.
In addition, damages of 15% will be owed automatically, thus without an obligation to notify default being, with a minimum of € 37,50.
Payments of invoices after the due date will first be allocated to the interest due, then to the damages and lastly to the oldest outstanding invoice.
26.4 Jurisdiction
These conditions are exclusively governed by Belgian law, with the exclusion of conflict rules. All disputes ensuing from the present booking fall under the express jurisdiction of the courts of Antwerp and in particular, the Peace Court of the 12th District.
ARTICLE 27
27.1 These General Terms and Conditions are governed solely by Belgian law, with the exception of rules on the conflict of laws.
27.2 All disputes will be adjudicated by the competent court in Antwerp to the exclusion of all other courts.
27.3. However, the Organiser remains entitled to submit a claim to the court that would have jurisdiction pursuant to the statutory rules of jurisdiction.
27.4 If any provision in these General Rules and Conditions, or any part thereof is, or is declared, invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these General Rules and Conditions or the remaining part of that provision will remain in full force and this provision will be automatically replaced (by operation of law) by a valid provision that corresponds to the purport of the invalid provision as much as possible.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE GENERAL RULES AND CONDITIONS WILL RESULT IN ADMISSION BEING REFUSED OR DENIED, OR IN BEING EXPELLED, WITHOUT ANY REFUND OF THE ENTRANCE FEE. ALL VISITORS WHO ARE REFUSED OR DENIED ADMISSION OR ARE EXPELLED ARE OBLIGED TO IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE FESTIVAL GROUNDS.
