The passenger is responsible for obtaining all required travel documents and for complying with all laws, regulations, orders, demands and travel requirements of countries to be flown from, into or through which he transits. Carrier shall not be liable for the consequences to any passenger resulting from his or her failure to obtain such documents or visas or to comply with such laws, regulations, orders, demands and travel requirements, rules or instructions.
2. Travel documents
The passenger shall present all exit, entry, health and other documents required by laws, regulations, orders, demands or other requirements of the countries concerned and permit Carrier to take and retain copies thereof or otherwise to retain the data contained in the relevant documents. Carrier reserves the right to refuse carriage of any passenger whose travel documents are not complete. Carrier is not liable to the passenger's failure to comply with the requirements of these Conditions of Carriage.
3. Refusal of entry
The passenger will be responsible to pay the applicable fare whenever Carrier, or Government order, is required to return a passenger to his place of departure or elsewhere, owing to the passenger's inadmissibility into a country, whether of transit or of destination. Carrier may apply to the payment of such fare any funds paid to Carrier for unused carriage, or any funds of the passenger in the possession of Carrier. The fare collected for carriage to the point of refusal or denied entry will not be refunded by Carrier.
4. Passenger responsible for fines, detention costs, etc.
If Carrier is required to pay or deposit any fine or penalty or to incur any expenditure by reason of passenger's failure to comply with laws, regulations, orders, demands or other travel requirements or to produce the required documents, the passenger shall on demand reimburse to Carrier any amount so paid or deposited and any expenditure so incurred. Carrier may use towards such expenditure any funds paid to Carrier for unused carriage or any funds of the passenger in the possession of Carrier.
5. Customs inspection

Carrier is not liable to the passenger for any loss or damage suffered by the passenger through failure to comply with this requirement.
6. Security inspection
Passenger shall submit to any security control by Government or airport officials or by Carrier.
7. Government regulations
Carrier is not liable if it determines that what it understands or may reasonably understand to be applicable law, Government regulation, demand, order or requirement, requires that it refuses and it does refuse to carry a passenger.
