A Travel Agency Disclaimer should include: a general no-warranty statement, a no-professional-advice notice, an external links disclaimer, and any affiliate or sponsorship disclosures. For Travel Agency specifically: International data transfers to airlines, hotels, and foreign authorities.
A well-drafted Disclaimer significantly reduces legal risk by clearly setting user expectations and limiting reliance on your content.
