Good news for Club Sanook Members! Beginning 01 March 2007 you can earn Purple Points to use towards future tour arrangements when you book a Purple Dragon package! You will earn one point for each US dollar you spend, subject to the rules below. Not only that, you will receive an opening balance that is a gift from us and is based on past loyalty. You can also earn points by referring your friends to Purple Dragon and participating in our occasional research projects. Earning and redeeming awards could not be easier.
Club Sanook membership and its benefits are offered at the discretion of
Purple Dragon, and Purple Dragon has the right to terminate the Program, or to change the Program Rules, regulations, benefits, conditions of participation, or redemption levels, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice, even when changes may affect the value of the points already accumulated.
Purple Dragon may, among other things, withdraw, limit, modify or cancel any award; increase or decrease the points required for any award; add an unlimited number of blackout days; or limit the capacity available.
Each member shall be responsible for keeping up to date with the Program Rules and as to the number of points in his or her account.
Purple Dragon shall attempt to transmit account summaries, newsletters, and other correspondence and materials to active members to advise them of various matters of interest, but
Purple Dragon shall have no liability for any failure to do so. Purple Dragon and all companies affiliated with Club Sanook will not be responsible for lost or delayed correspondence.
Purple Dragon reserves the right to terminate the program with
three months' notice. This means that a Member's right to accumulate points and redeem Awards will be terminated
three months after
Purple Dragon notifies the member.
The purchase of any arrangements from
Purple Dragon does not in itself constitute an earning of points. Only Club Sanook Members may earn points under this program. Points may not be earned retroactively.
Purple Dragon customers earn one Point for each US dollar or equivalent spent on prepaid tour package purchases ("Services"). Only the person contracting for and paying for the Services may accrue points for those Services.
Points shall not be awarded for Services that are not prepaid, for custom group arrangements, for airport transfers, or for airfares purchased. Points shall not be earned on arrangements made by redemption of Program points, hotel-only reservations regardless of prepayment,
airfares, airport transfers purchased separately from packages, free or discounted Services including "Club Sanook Member Specials," or other Services specifically identified on the
Purple Dragon or Club Sanook website as Services for which no points may be accrued.
The Program will become effective for
qualified travel arrangements paid for on or after 1 March 2007. Purple Dragon will give
previous customers a gift of a "starting balance" based on arrangements paid prior to
that date. However, no adjustments will be available and no research will be made for the period before
1 March 2007.
1. Points become available for redemption
60 days after they are earned, except as described in Paragraph 2.
2. In order to qualify for an Award, the member must have sufficient points in his or her account to redeem that Award. However, Members may redeem an Award at a higher Award level by purchasing additional non-discounted, non-Award arrangements in conjunction with the redemption of any Award. The points earned by purchase of additional arrangements must be equal to or greater than the difference between the points in the Member's account and the points required to redeem the Award desired.
Specifically excluded, however, are those arrangements that constitute a part of
the Award itself.
3. Awards may be used only by the Member who earned the points being redeemed.
There are no joint, group or corporate Memberships.
4. Points earned by two or more different Members may not be combined to redeem any award.
5. All Awards may be subject to certain restrictions.
Awards may not be applied to group or already-discounted travel or programs,
including programs that are offered to Members only. Reward usage
may be subject to capacity controls, which limit the availability of rooms,
transportation and guide staff. Additionally, Use of Awards may also be limited during certain times of the year. Blackout dates may be imposed or changed with or without notice.
6. Points can not be redeemed for cash or for non-Award travel.
7. In the event that the Award is not used, points used to redeem Awards may not be re-deposited to the Member's account unless an administrative fee of $50 is paid.
Accrued points do not constitute property of the Member. Accrued points are not transferable (i) upon death, (ii) as part of a domestic relations matter, or (iii) otherwise by operation of law.
Purple Dragon and Club Sanook may inform members about products and services offered from time to time. Members consent to receiving this information as a condition of Membership. Membership, membership benefits and points accumulated will be forfeited if a Member instructs
Purple Dragon and/or Club Sanook to remove his email address from its distribution list.
Each member shall be responsible for advising Club Sanook of any change of email address.
When three successive emails from us to a Member are returned as undeliverable,
that Member will be considered to have resigned his Membership.
All interpretations of Program Rules shall be at the sole discretion of
Purple Dragon. Purple Dragon and Club Sanook provide this award program "as is" and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, expressly disclaims any warranties of any kind, whether express or implied and including, but not limited to, warranties of merchantability, fitness for any purpose whatsoever, design, accuracy, capability, sufficiency, suitability, capacity, completeness or availability.
Purple Dragon and Club Sanook neither warrant nor guarantee that this program and its related services will be uninterrupted, without omissions or free from errors, that any defects will be corrected, or that any changes will be implemented. Membership and this agreement are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand, which is the only jurisdiction available for resolution of claims or disputes that might arise from use of this program.
