      If you are 2 persons that we can operate the tour any day as per your scheduled. If the flight date changes or canceled, they (Airlines company) will re-arrange the scheduled. As per the flight scheduled we can operate the trip accordingly. Due to the flight cancel or any disturbance that tour cost will not refund because we (Travel agent) need to deposit USD 200 per person per day to Bhutan Government for the Bhutan visa process.
