CX may change the price of a Travel Package where the wrong price has been advertised or otherwise furnished to you due to clerical or technical error. CX will as soon as practicable notify you of the change in price and you will be given the option of retaining the booking and paying the correct price within a stipulated time period. However if the error entails an increase in price and you do not wish to proceed or do not pay the correct price within a stipulated time period, then we may cancel the booking and in such circumstances we will provide you a full refund of the price that you have in fact paid to CX. We will not be obliged to proceed with the booking at the incorrect price and we will not be liable to provide you with additional compensation.

In the unlikely event that CX cancels your booking due to reasons beyond our control, CX will notify and  provide you with a full refund of the total price you have paid to CX.
