Delays & Changes to Dates
Due to the large number of pilgrims delays and queues are expected in Saudi Arabia. Times that we have provided are tentative and delays may occur from time to time. You are requested to abide by the times appointed by your group leader, as that would override our times. Dome Tours International reserves the right to change the departure if necessary but will inform you of the changes made. Date changes are extremely rare and usually results from bad weather conditions, rescheduling times by the airlines, action by air traffic controllers, mechanical fault or industrial actions, all of which are beyond our control.
Dome Tours International is not to be held responsible in any way for the loss or the invalidity of connecting tickets/flights due to any delays beyond our control. It is your responsibility to ensure that your luggage weight is within the carrier’s allowance; extra weight is chargeable by the airline and must be paid to them directly upon request. We are not responsible for freighting your baggage, and we do not give credit or lend money nor are we responsible for any lost baggage. You must inform Mr. Abdel-Rahman Helbawi in person if you decide to visit Jeddah or drop out of the group for any reason during the Hajj. Failure to do so could result in the cancellation of your contract with Dome Tours International and you shall be responsible for the completion of the remaining official paperwork as well as making your own way to the airport for departure.
