- Panoramic city tours included in the tour package are arranged for the general introduction of the cities and are conducted as a panoramic tour with the guidance provided inside the vehicle, which does not include admission to museums or archaeological sites and lasts no more than 2-3 hours. Panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, will not be the responsibility of Fly Express if they cannot occur due to the local authorities' prohibition to visit or enter, or if closed roads prevent the tours from being conducted due to any event or due to weather conditions making it impossible to carry out the tour. Some tours may be conducted by public transport or walking in places where road closures or vehicle entry are not permitted.
- Extra tours are organized by the local agency from whom we receive service, with a minimum participation requirement of 20 people. If there are not enough participants, the trips may not be held, or extra tour prices, content, and the vehicle to be used may vary depending on the number of participants. Additionally, the days and times of the tours may be changed by the guide due to the open/closed status of museums and archaeological sites, and weather conditions.
- Participation in extra tours is optional for participants and is not mandatory. Passengers who do not wish to join the extra tours organized during the tour, shall be considered to have agreed to wait at a suitable resting facility along the route.

- Fly Express acts as an intermediary between the airline and the passenger and is subject to the Hague Protocol of 28.09.1955.

- Guests traveling with a Turkish green passport must renew their passport if it was issued more than 10 years ago; otherwise, they may not be accepted into the country they are traveling to, and/or the airline may refuse to honor their flight. In such cases, the responsibility lies with the passenger.
- There is no visa requirement for green passport holders, and a passport valid for at least 6 months from the date of travel is sufficient.
- Having a visa does not guarantee entry into the country, as the passport police have the authority to deny entry. Fly Express is not responsible for this situation; the responsibility lies with the passenger.
- To avoid issues with customs officers at the border crossing of the destination country due to torn, worn, wet, or similar damaged passports, it is advisable to renew those passports. If a Turkish citizen is traveling to a country that requires a visa, the relevant visa must be on the new passport. Otherwise, the responsibility lies with the passenger.
- Minors under 18 traveling alone or with only one parent are advised to be sensitive to the potential demand for a document showing the consent of both parents at border control, and we recommend that minors and their parents be aware of this issue.
