Optional tours planned and operated by Our Company will be clearly indicated in the brochure or other materials.
(2) If the brochure or other materials indicate that the operator of the optional tour is not Our Company, Our Company will pay compensation or consolation money for damages specified in Section 22 that occur during participation in such optional tour, based on the provisions of the same section. (However, this does not apply if the optional tour is conducted on a "non-arranged day" of the main package tour, and this is clearly stated in the brochure or final travel itinerary.) Additionally, the responsibility of such optional tour operator and the customer's responsibilities will be governed by the terms set by such operator.
(3) If Our Company list sports or other activities as "mere information provision" in the brochure or other materials, this will be clearly indicated. In such cases, Our Company will apply the provisions of Section 22 to damages incurred by the customer while participating in these activities (except when the activities occur on a "non-arranged day" of the main package tour, and this is clearly stated in the brochure or final travel itinerary), but Our Company will not assume any other responsibilities.
 
25.Itinerary Guarantee
(1) If significant changes to the contract details listed in the left column of the table below occur (excluding the cases listed in ①and ② below), Our Company will pay a change compensation fee calculated by multiplying the travel fee by the rate specified in the right column of the table below. This payment will be made within 30 days from the day after the travel ends. However, if it is evident that Our Company is liable for the changes under the provisions of Section 21 (1), the payment will be made as compensation for damages, either in whole or in part, instead of as a change compensation fee.
① Our Company will not pay a change compensation fee for changes caused by the following reasons (however, if such change is due to overbooking, resulting in insufficient seats, rooms, or other facilities despite the travel service being provided, Our Company will pay a change compensation fee):
(a) Bad weather or natural disasters that disrupt the travel schedule
(b) War
(c) Riots
(d) Orders from public authorities
(e) Suspension of travel services such as cancellations, closures, or suspensions of transportation or accommodation facilities
(f) Delays or changes in transportation schedules, or the provision of transportation services not according to the original plan
(g) Measures necessary to ensure the safety of the participants' lives or bodies
② If the travel contract is canceled under the provisions of Section 17, Our Company will not pay a change compensation fee for the canceled portion.
(2) Notwithstanding the provisions of (1), the total amount of change compensation fees paid by Our Company for a single travel contract will not exceed 15% of the travel fee specified in Section 10. If the amount of the change compensation fee is less than 1,000 yen, Our Company will not pay the fee.
(3) If Our Company pays a change compensation fee under the provisions of (1) and it later becomes evident that Our Company is liable under Section 21 for the change, the customer must return such change compensation fee to the company. In this case, Our Company will offset the amount of compensation for damages payable under Section 21 against the amount of such change compensation fee to be returned by the customer and pay the remaining balance to the customer.
(4) If the customer agrees, Our Company may substitute the payment of the change compensation fee with the provision of goods or travel services of equivalent or greater value.
