These Terms apply to all users of the site, including customers, travelers, browsers, and anyone who interacts with our services.
Please read them carefully.
1. OUR BUSINESS MODEL
Designer Vacations by JetLife is a licensed travel agency and luxury travel curator that designs and sells vacation packages, group travel experiences, cruises, and event-based travel.
We work with global suppliers, hotels, airlines, cruise lines, event venues, and destination management companies ("Vendors"). Final delivery of many services depends on these Vendors, and by booking with JetLife, you acknowledge and accept this arrangement.
- Florida Seller of Travel Registration: ST40977
- IATA/ARC Accredited
- Voted Best Travel Agency in Tampa Bay — 4 Consecutive Years
JetLife Vacations is not a hotel, airline, cruise operator, or transportation provider. We act as your booking agent and luxury travel curator.
2. BOOKING TERMS & CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES
By booking a vacation through JetLife:
- You confirm you are 18 years or older.
- You agree to provide accurate and complete personal information.
- You understand that all payments are final and are subject to JetLife's Refund Policy.
- You agree that flights are never included in JetLife packages unless explicitly stated.
- You agree that private JetLife events are exclusive and only accessible to customers booked with JetLife.
JetLife reserves the right to refuse service or cancel bookings for:
- Fraudulent activity
- Violations of group policies
- Disruptive customer behavior
- Failure to make required payments
- Filing a fraudulent chargeback or bank dispute
3. PAYMENT OPTIONS & FINANCING
JetLife offers several payment options, including third-party financing platforms and in-house payment plans.
Third-Party Financing
Financing is provided by Affirm, Uplift, Klarna, Afterpay, and other lenders. Approval is not guaranteed and is subject to eligibility based solely on the lender. JetLife does not influence or participate in financing decisions. Any disputes regarding financing must be resolved directly with the lender.
Marketing phrases such as "zero down," "no payments for 30 days," or "as low as $___ per month" refer to lender options and are subject to eligibility.
JetLife Easy Pay (In-House Financing)
JetLife Easy Pay is an in-house payment plan offered at JetLife's discretion. Terms, deposit amounts, and payment schedules are determined by JetLife on a per-booking basis. Missed payments may result in cancellation with no refund. Final payments must be made by the published deadline.
Bypass Processing Fees
Customers who book directly by phone may bypass third-party processing fees. Processing fees applied to online transactions through Affirm, Klarna, Afterpay, or other platforms are non-refundable and are not the responsibility of JetLife.
4. NO REFUNDS / CANCELLATION POLICY
Because JetLife prepays Vendors to secure hotels, yachts, event venues, excursions, and transportation:
All payments made to JetLife are non-refundable and non-transferable.
This applies to:
- Deposits
- Monthly payments
- Vacation balances
- Event packages
- Add-ons
- Party packages
If a traveler chooses not to attend, arrives late, leaves early, is removed for misconduct, or misses any activity, no refunds or credits will be provided.
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is strongly recommended and will be offered at the time of booking. If a traveler declines travel insurance, they accept full financial responsibility for any cancellation, interruption, or emergency that occurs before or during the trip. JetLife is not responsible for losses that would have been covered by travel insurance.
5. CHARGEBACK & DISPUTE POLICY
Initiating a credit card or bank chargeback after acknowledging these Terms constitutes a breach of contract and may constitute fraud.
By booking with JetLife, you agree to the following:
- You will attempt to resolve any payment dispute directly with JetLife before contacting your bank, credit card company, or financing provider.
- If a chargeback is initiated against JetLife in violation of this policy, the traveler agrees to pay JetLife a penalty of $250.00 as liquidated damages to cover administrative, processing, and collection fees, in addition to all external legal costs incurred.
- JetLife reserves the right to pursue all available legal remedies, including but not limited to filing a police report, reporting the incident to the appropriate authorities, and pursuing civil action for fraud.
- JetLife will submit all relevant documentation to the payment processor, including signed contracts, booking confirmations, communication records, and evidence of services rendered.
A signed travel contract with a non-refundable cancellation policy constitutes a binding agreement. Chargebacks filed after signing such an agreement will be contested to the fullest extent of the law.
6. PRIVATE JETLIFE EVENTS & BEHAVIOR POLICY
To protect the safety and experience of our guests:
- JetLife private events are exclusive. Individuals not booked with JetLife will not be permitted entry under any circumstances.
