Terms and Conditions

This is the user agreement which governs your use of the websites, www.ie.lastminute.com and www.lastminute.ie ("Website") or, if relevant, one of our other distribution channels (such as Interactive TV ("IDTV"), mobile telephone commerce ("WAP") or interactive voice technology ("IVT") (the "Channels") and the purchase by you of the services and products we provide. We are Last Minute Network Limited (Ireland) trading as lastminute.com ("lastminute.com", "we", "us"). Each Channel is owned and operated by a member of the lastminute.com plc. group however not all of the products or services we provide are supplied by us, therefore the contract for the product and/or service will be between you and that third party.

General Section - please note that this section relates generally to your use of any Channel and to all products purchased.

  1. Please take time to read these terms and conditions it is important for both of us that you understand our contractual relationship relating to your use of the Channels. We will not allow you to purchase any products from any of the Channels unless you have confirmed that you have read these terms.

  2. Except for the sale of a very small number of products (such as, for some entertainment tickets) our Channels operate to an agency model. This means that we act as a disclosed agent for third party suppliers, such as a tour operator, hotel or a restaurant. What this means is that the contract for the product is between you and the supplier. In most cases this will mean that there are additional terms and conditions governing the contract as each supplier will have terms and conditions relating to that product. Please make sure that you have read these terms and conditions before completing your transaction with us. You can easily request them from our Customer Services by using one of the methods detailed at the end of these terms. Where we act as agent this will mean that we have no contractual liability to you in respect of that product. However, we may still be liable to you if we have been negligent, we have misrepresented important information or have been in breach of any other relevant law.

  3. All products sold through lastminute.com's Channels are not an offer by lastminute.com to sell any product, but an invitation to you to make an offer to our suppliers. We are free to accept that offer on behalf of those suppliers or to reject it. We will send you an e-mail confirming the contract if you are purchasing from the website, from other Channels the confirmation may be different. For example when purchasing via WAP we will send you an SMS or via IVT our acceptance will be communicated when the product is delivered. The method of concluding a contract will be made clear on the relevant Channel.

  4. Because the contract for the product is between you and the supplier any queries or concerns relating to the product should be addressed to them. You will see the name and address, plus contact details, for most suppliers at the bottom of the more info section for each product and for all suppliers in any confirmatory e-mail we send you. We will of course assist you with this if you wish - please contact Customer Services.

  5. Where your contract is not with lastminute.com but with a third party supplier such as a tour operator or hotel, lastminute.com may pass your credit card (or details of any other payment method allowed) and any other essential booking details to that third party. The placing of an order for any goods and services by you will constitute consent to us passing on such details.

  6. Please make sure that you have read and understood the more info sections on the Channels, it is your responsibility to make sure you have done so.

  7. You undertake to us that the details you give to us while using the Channels are correct in particular that the credit or debit card you are using is your own and that there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of the product or service.

  8. If there are any changes to the details supplied to us by you it is your responsibility to inform lastminute.com by contacting our Customer Services as soon as possible.

  9. We won't send you e-mails which you do not want but we can't guarantee that third parties to whom your details are sent won't do so.

  10. Our Channels will not stop you from making impossible bookings such as two flights to the same place at the same time or a flight to one place and theatre tickets to another at the same time. If you make that kind of booking we won't give you a refund.

  11. We will do our best to correct errors and omissions as quickly as practicable after being notified of them. However because of the sophisticated technology that is required in operating lastminute.com there may be times when obvious errors occur. For example, very occasionally, this may result in a price, product or service or other detail displayed or presented on a Channel being incorrect. In this case we reserve the right to cancel that contract, but this of course will be without any liability to you.

  12. lastminute.com does not make any warranty that the website is free from infection by viruses or anything else that has contaminating or destructive properties.

Specific Terms - Please note these terms only relate to the purchase of the specific products to which they relate. Please note if there is a conflict or ambiguity between these Special Terms and the General Terms the Special Terms shall prevail:

  11. Cookies

    The Website, which is owned and operated by the lastminute.com plc. group uses cookies. A cookie is a small text file of which there are three types:

    Session cookies: These are used to maintain something called session state. If you consider your journey through the site to be a conversation with us, this cookie just reminds the Website where we were in that conversation (for instance if at some point in the conversation you asked us to add a hotel to your basket, next time you click on the basket it is still there). These are required for the site to function but are not used in any way to identify you personally.

    Permanent cookies: These store a few numbers on your hard drive. You can view them by looking in the cookies directory of your browser installation if you are interested. They last for a long time and each time you come to our site you send us a copy of them. We use them to identify you between visits. For instance if you were looking at hotels in Dublin last time you were on the Website and we have a great hotel deal we may use this cookie to recognise you and show you our great deal. They are not required for the site to work but may enhance your experience. We do not store any personal data in these cookies, just a unique number that identifies you to us.

    Third Party Cookies: You may have noticed that we carry advertising from third parties on our site. Occasionally they may send you a cookie. We have no control over these. Although you cannot block "session" cookies as they are required for our Website to function correctly you can configure your internet browser so that it can reject both "permanent" and "third party" cookies. How you do this will depend upon the internet browser you use (for example, Internet Explorer 5, Netscape 4 or Opera etc.) and it is therefore impractical for us to detail here how you can reject those cookies. Please refer to the relevant internet browser manufacturer's website where you should be able to receive all the information you need.

    The ads appearing on this Website are delivered to you, on our behalf, by our Web advertising partner. Information about your visit to this site, such as number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, or any other personal information), is used to serve ads.

B. Flights

(i) Regular Flights

  1. When you purchase a flight from lastminute.com you are using a service provided by Last Minute Network (Ireland) Limited, a company which is a member of the lastminute.com group.

  2. Last Minute Network (Ireland) Limited is registered in Ireland with registered number 325163. Its registered address is Fleet Chambers, 8-9 Westmoreland Street, Dublin 2.
    1. .

    2. Bookings made online through our secure server are bonded by Last Minute Network (Ireland) Limited under our Travel Agent's Licence number T.A. 0605 issued by the Commission for Aviation Regulation.

    3. Generally the more flexible the ticket the more expensive it is likely to be and you need to take various points into consideration before deciding between the fares on offer.

    4. To help you, below are lastminute.com's general booking conditions. Please read them carefully.

    5. Contract

      Any booking made or order placed by you, whether through the lastminute.com website or otherwise, shall be deemed an offer by you to purchase the relevant items subject to these booking conditions. Note that lastminute.com is selling the tickets as agents for the airlines, which means the contract for the flight product will be between you and the airline.

      Please note that for each ticket there are additional terms which are specific to that fare. They may, for example, state that the ticket is non-cancellable or non-refundable, and have other information relating to itinerary and refunds. You must read the FLIGHT RULES for each ticket. You can find the relevant FLIGHT RULES on the lastminute.com website when you progress through the purchase path.

      You are responsible for complying with any airline's terms in relation to check-in times, reconfirmation of flights or other matters. In relation to flight tickets, you are required to use all flight coupons in order of sequence. If this requirement is not met the airline may void the ticket.

      A contract arises between you and the airline when we send you a confirmation e-mail confirming that they have accepted your booking.

    6. Fares

      All fares are quoted inclusive of taxes. Fares are subject to change without prior notice and are only guaranteed when following confirmation of the contract.

    7. Reservations

      Be aware that certain airlines do not maintain "real time" seat availability in the airline reservations system to which we connect. Whilst every effort is made to reflect the true situation, instances may occur when airlines cancel sales. lastminute.com will advise you within one working day if this is the case and will do all they can to reinstate your booking.

    8. Tickets

      If it is not possible to get your flight tickets to you (e.g. because your travel date is imminent) we may insist that you have an "e-ticket" or a TOD (ticket on departure) generated. A TOD is when you will have to pick up your ticket at your point of departure. Don't worry, lastminute.com will make sure you know exactly where to pick up your tickets.


    9. Where an airline provides e-ticketing on a specific route this will be the only ticketing option made available. Electronic tickets are stored in the airline's computer rather than printed on paper. The service is similar to the traditional paper ticket process but eliminates the time and hassle associated with purchasing or exchanging a paper ticket.

      When you arrive at the airline check in desk you will be required to present an official form of identification (i.e. driver's licence or passport) to receive your boarding pass. Please note that you must print out your confirmation page or confirmation email to show to the airline. Because your e-ticket is held in the airline's computer, you cannot forget it or lose it. More importantly, your e-ticket cannot be stolen, saving you the cost of a replacement ticket. You do not have to wait for your e-ticket to be delivered to you.

    10. Flight Reconfirmation

      lastminute.com accepts no responsibility for bookings cancelled due to non-compliance with rules set by that particular airline. lastminute.com also take no responsibility for any flight rescheduling en route.

    11. Passports/Visas/Health Requirements

      lastminute.com is very happy to inform you of current documentation requirements if you so require. It is incumbent upon you to ensure that you meet the passport, visa, health requirements of the countries you wish to visit and those that you transit (even if it is for a plane change). Many countries require that your passport should be valid for a period of (a minimum) six months from the date of arrival into that country. lastminute.com does not accept any responsibility if you should be denied boarding or deported due to non-fulfilment of the above.

    12. Insurance

      lastminute.com strongly urges you to carry appropriate travel insurance to cover you for cancellation, health, baggage etc.

    13. Airline regulations/conditions of carriage

      Please note that in all transactions lastminute.com acts as agents of the airlines you have chosen to book on. Please read your ticket wallet for their conditions of carriage.

    14. Cancellation / Amendments

      If you need to change or cancel your travel plans, it is your responsibility to notify lastminute.com in writing of such request. Some tickets are non-refundable, but can be applied (for a limited time) toward future travel, less any applicable penalties. Some tickets do not allow changes.

      lastminute.com applies an administration fee of €30 per booking for any modifications, changes or cancellations to fares. This will be regardless of the price or face value of the fare.

      In addition to the lastminute.com charges, most airlines also have a penalty or cancellation fee for any changes or cancellations to fares. Please ensure you read the FLIGHT RULES for the fare selected as airline charges are notified in those rules depending on whether you wish to cancel or change your flight. If you are holding a booking for which a ticket has been arranged and you do not notify us in writing of your desire to cancel, this will be treated as a "no show" and could result in you losing all that you paid.

    15. Refunds

      If you want to cancel your journey it is important that you notify us in writing with utmost urgency. This enables us to cancel your reservation with the airline. If you already have your ticket please submit it to us. Tickets must be sent to:

      BSP - lastminute.com
      Fleet Chambers,
      8-9 Westmoreland Street,
      Dublin 2

      On receipt of the ticket we will send you an acknowledgement that we have received it. Those tickets which are refundable or cancelled by us will be processed and refunded back to your credit card in approximately 6 weeks from our receipt of the ticket. Some tickets may need to be submitted to the airline for the cancellation and/or refund to be authorized. In this event your refund request may take longer, but we will advise you in our acknowledgement of the expected turnaround period. Please note that most airlines do not refund on part used tickets. Tickets which are returned more than 1 year from date of issue are classified as expired tickets and must be submitted to the airline for their authority to refund.

    16. Lost Tickets

      If you lose your tickets, it may be possible to re-issue them for a fee. The amount payable will depend on the circumstances of the loss and how close to the travel date you discover it. However, not all tickets can be re-issued; which is another good reason for ensuring you have sufficient insurance cover. Tickets will be dispatched to you in accordance with your instructions and we accept no responsibility for their delivery. Lost tickets which cannot be re-issued are refunded at the sole discretion of the airline, these refunds can take up to one year to be authorized.

    17. Liability

      As lastminute.com acts as agent this will mean that it will have no contractual liability to you in respect of the flight product. However, it may still be liable to you if it has been negligent, it has misrepresented important information or has been in breach of any other relevant law.

    18. Unreasonable behaviour

      If in the reasonable opinion of a person acting in authority you are not fit to travel, he or she may refuse to let you board the aircraft. Normally this happens if such person thinks you are likely to disturb or harm other passengers. In this case your contract with lastminute.com will end immediately and we will no longer be responsible for you.

      (ii) Charter Flights
    1. In the sale of charter flights lastminute.com acts as agent for various third party suppliers. The contract for the charter flight will be between you and the relevant supplier and you will be subject to their terms and conditions. Please contact Customer Services who will be able to provide those terms and conditions to you.

    2. In addition as we incur cost in administrating cancellations and modifications, if you ask us to administer any relevant cancellation and/or amendment on your behalf we will charge an administration fee of €45. Please be aware that this fee will be in addition to any charge you may have to pay the supplier.

    C. Package Holidays and other holiday related products ("Holiday Products") and package holidays which you package yourself

    1. When you purchase a pre-packaged holiday supplied by a third-party supplier, please remember that, in addition to these terms, you will be subject to the terms and conditions of the third-party supplier.

    2. Where the third-party supplier of the pre-packaged holiday allows you to cancel or modify a pre-packaged holiday you must contact lastminute.com in writing of such a request. Unless we receive such a written request lastminute.com will be unable to effect that request on your behalf. Please note that because the contract for the pre-packaged holiday is between you and the supplier, lastminute.com has no discretion in deciding whether the pre-packaged holiday can be cancelled or modified.

    3. lastminute.com applies an administration fee of €20 per booking for any modifications, changes or cancellations to holidays. This will be regardless of the price of the holiday.

      In addition to the lastminute.com charges, most third-party suppliers also have a penalty or cancellation fee for any changes or cancellations to holidays. Please ensure you read the terms and conditions of the respective third-party supplier. If you are holding a booking for which a ticket has been arranged and you do not notify us in writing of your desire to cancel, this will be treated as a "no show" and could result in you losing all that you paid.

    4. Any visa, passport and inoculation requirements are your responsibility and failure to obtain the relevant documentation is not the responsibility of lastminute.com.

    5. If it is not possible to get tickets for the pre-packaged holiday to you (e.g. because your travel date is imminent) we may insist that you have an e-ticket or a TOD (ticket on departure) generated. A TOD is when you will have to pick up your ticket at your point of departure. Don't worry, we will make sure you know where to pick up your tickets. In the case of pre-packaged holidays supplied by a third-party a "late charge" may apply.

      Where an airline provides e-ticketing on a specific route this will be the only ticketing option made available. Electronic tickets are stored in the airline's computer rather than printed on paper. The service is similar to the traditional paper ticket process, but eliminates the time and hassle associated with purchasing or exchanging a paper ticket.

      When you arrive at the airline check in desk you will be required to present an official form of identification i.e. driver's license or passport to receive your boarding pass. Please also note that you must print out your confirmation page or confirmation email to show to the airline. Because your electronic ticket is held in the airlines computer, you cannot forget it or lose it. More importantly, your electronic ticket cannot be stolen, saving you the cost of a replacement ticket. You do not have to wait for your ticket to be delivered to you.

    6. When you create your own package holiday (for example when you package together two or more of a flight, hotel and/or a tour or excursion) on the Website your contract will be governed by these special terms and conditions and by lastminute.com’s package holiday terms and conditions. lastminute.com’s package holiday terms and conditions can be found during the online purchase path for such a dynamically packaged holiday (flight + hotel).

    D. Hotels

    1. All hotel discounts advertised are based on the discounts from the full "rack rate" including VAT and are correct at the time the offers are first advertised on any Channel. However, please note that some hotels in other countries may also charge local or other taxes, which may not be included in the offer.

    2. "Rack rate" is the rate published by a hotel which is the maximum it will charge for any room.

    3. If you wish to cancel your hotel room, please contact our customer services by telephone on 0818 3000 64. We also accept email cancellations on informationireland@lastminute.com. Please include your order number, registered email address and details of your cancellation. In the event of cancellation for whatever reason you shall be liable to pay lastminute.com an administration fee of €15. This could be in addition to any cancellation charge any hotel may impose.

    4. Prices stated are on per room, per night basis and include VAT unless otherwise stated.

    5. Please be aware that the hotel room photos are only a depiction of the type of rooms on offer and may not represent the actual room described.

    6. Unless otherwise stated, breakfast, lunch and dinner are not included.

    7. Star ratings may differ according to the country where the hotel is located and are out of the control of lastminute.com. Therefore lastminute.com cannot be held responsible for any misconceptions relating to star ratings.

    8. Please note foreign hotel room advertisements displayed on the Website may have room rates identified in both Euro as well as the local currency, or any other currency as requested by the specific hotel supplier. Unless stated otherwise, at the time of final payment, the room rate you will be charged by the hotel shall be as expressed in the local currency (or in any other currency as determined by the hotel) and not in Euro. Please be aware any subsequent conversion of the local currency to Euro by the hotel on your behalf may differ from the Euro room rate advertised on the Website.
    E. Car Hire Airport
    1. Car Hire reservation services on the Channels are provided by Holiday Autos (UK & Ireland) Limited, a member of the lastminute.com group. Their terms and conditions can be found on the purchase path when purchasing car hire.

    F. Travel Insurance

    1. Please note that the sale of travel insurance on the lastminute.com website is provided to you by our partner Blue Insurances Limited ("Blue Insurances"). The contract for the service is therefore between you and Blue Insurances on their terms and conditions. Those terms and conditions are detailed within the purchase path for travel insurance. Please make sure you read them carefully before making any reservation.

G. Gifts & Experiences ("Gifts")
  1. In most cases for the sale of Gifts lastminute.com is acting as a disclosed agent for a third party supplier. You will usually be able to find the name and address of the relevant supplier on the more info sections relating to each product, and in all cases in your confirmation e-mail.

  2. Remember the contract governing the purchase of the Gift will contain the terms and condition of the supplier. This will mean that ultimately any decision on cancellation, returns etc. will belong to the supplier. Please contact Customer Services for details of relevant terms and conditions.

  3. In addition to the above, however, we have agreed with our suppliers to offer you a 10 day no quibble returns policies for certain Gifts and products. Please note a description of which products are included and which are excluded from this policy is given at paragraph 6 of this section G.

  4. The returns policy is as follows:

    (i) We will arrange a full refund of the full price you paid (including outward delivery charges) if you contact our Customer Services explaining that you wish to cancel the contract within 10 days of your receipt of the product. Please make sure that you inform us of the order number, product description, reason for return and whether you require a replacement or refund;

    (ii) Paperwork will be sent out with your gift which will give you more information on how to effect a return, including where to send the product. Remember because in many cases we are an agent and do not control any stock, this may not be lastminute.com but the supplier from whom you purchased the product;

    (iii) On the earlier of the receipt by the supplier or 30 days after notification of cancellation we will effect refund;

    (iv) If you request a replacement product our Customer Services will attempt to arrange this for you but whether this option is available remains at our supplier's discretion;

    (v) Remember to keep the product reasonably safe and to return them in a reasonably good condition. Please use recorded delivery in order to minimise the risk of the refunded item not being returned safely; and

    (vi) If you do not send it back the supplier can arrange to have in picked up from your address, in this case you will be charged the cost of this pick up.

  5. Please note that that this policy does not affect your statutory rights which you may have, including the European Communities (Protection of Contracts Made by Means of Distance Communications) Regulations 2001.

They will also not apply to those gifts which are likely to quickly deteriorate. In addition and for the avoidance of doubt our 10 day returns policy does not relate to Holiday Products (e.g. flights, holidays and hotels etc), restaurant bookings, entertainment tickets or experiences (e.g. drive a Ferrari, bungee jumping etc.) where you receive a voucher to take up an experience within a certain period of time.

  7. Please note that just because our 10 day no quibble guarantee does not apply to any product does not necessarily mean that for all other products there isn't a returns policy. Remember for each product there are separate supplier terms and conditions governing that contract which may contain a returns policy. Please remember to request this from our Customer Services.

  8. Prices for an experience are on a per person basis unless otherwise stated, they will include delivery of the relevant voucher within mainland Ireland and will include VAT, again unless otherwise stated. Vouchers for the experience package will be delivered by the supplier with whom you have contracted within the stated delivery times. Please see the more info section for each product for more details

  9. Although our experiences suppliers will have third party liability insurance it is your responsibility to ensure you are adequately covered.
