Policy details

More about how complaints are managed

These sections explain how supplier matters, outcomes, escalation and consumer rights are handled.

Complaints involving suppliers

Many travel arrangements are provided by third-party suppliers, such as airlines, hotels, tour operators, cruise lines, wholesalers, car hire companies, rail providers, insurers and activity providers.

Roam Wisely Travel acts as a travel intermediary. This means some complaint outcomes may depend on supplier terms and conditions, fare rules, cancellation rules, refund rules, insurance policy terms or third-party response times.

Where a supplier is involved, we will review the matter and contact the supplier where appropriate.

Complaint outcomes

After reviewing your complaint, we may provide:

  • an explanation of what happened
  • details of any supplier response
  • a correction or update
  • assistance with a refund, credit or amendment where available
  • an apology where appropriate
  • details of any further options available to you
If you are not satisfied with the outcome

If you are not satisfied with our response, please let us know in writing so we can review whether anything further can reasonably be done.

You also have the right to contact your relevant federal, state or territory consumer protection agency at any time. For clients in New South Wales, this may include NSW Fair Trading.

Australian Consumer Law

Nothing on this page limits any rights you may have under the Australian Consumer Law or other applicable legislation.

Roam Wisely Travel manages complaints in a way that is consistent with Australian Consumer Law, supplier terms and conditions, and our role as a travel intermediary.
