Sembo’s terms and conditions of travel

 

Sembo is part of the Stena Line Travel Group AB and has its registered office in Helsingborg. Sembo provides accommodation while Stena Line Scandinavia AB, Direct Ferries and HH Ferries Helsingborg AB are responsible for the ferry journey. Sembo also includes other transportation services, such as airline tickets, rental cars and transfers. Payments for both the transportation and the accommodation are made to Sembo.

 

If no other agreement has been reached, travellers themselves select products or services, or a combination thereof, from the selection available on the homepage. Different terms and conditions apply for booking of accommodation and transportation.

 

If the agreement refers to a package holiday, the package holiday terms and conditions of the Association of Swedish Travel Agents and Tour Operators apply.

Sembo has lodged government travel guarantees with Kammarkollegiet according to the Travel Guarantees Act.

 

Sembo is aimed at leisure travellers. 

 

Entering into an agreement

The agreement is binding on both parties once Sembo has confirmed the order in writing and the customer has paid a deposit (registration fee + any cancellation insurance). If we do not receive the deposit by the due date, the booking will be considered cancelled. 

The lead passenger is responsible for providing Sembo with correct contact details, so that he or she can be reached for important messages. Any changes will be notified by e-mail. Sembo is not responsible for being unable to provide the lead passenger with important information because the contact details provided are incorrect. The lead passenger is the person in whose name the booking is made. He or she is also the person responsible for the payment of the booking.

Responsibility for implementation of service

When Sembo provides services on behalf on another company, the latter company is responsible for the implementation of the service, and their terms and conditions for travel/transport apply. Sembo therefore cannot be held liable for e.g. changes in the schedule, cancelled flights/ferries, luggage, bankruptcies and other occurrences relating to the implementation. Any claims due to inadequacies in the implementation should be made directly to the provider.
