My Domaine Travel LLC

The Office

A small independent travel agency on Wisconsin Avenue in Washington, DC. It books trips with the companies that run them. It flies nobody, houses nobody and runs no tour, and it answers to none of the companies that do.

Filed with: DC Department of Licensing and Consumer Protection

What it sells: trips, arranged and booked with the companies that run them
What it charges for that: nothing

The seven things it is not

Not a carrier or an operator: it owns no aircraft, no vessel, no vehicle, no room and no tour, and it operates no part of any trip
Not affiliated with any of them: nobody outside this office holds a share of it, and you will find no other company's name, mark or livery anywhere in these pages
Not anybody's authorized representative: nobody has appointed this office to speak for them
Not licensed or bonded: the District of Columbia licenses no travel agency and this company has bought no bond. No license number and no bond number appears anywhere here
Not a registered seller of travel: four states keep such a register, being California, Florida, Hawaii and Washington State. This name appears on none of the four, and no traveler money passes through here
Not accredited by any industry body: no association mark is displayed. None of those bodies issues a license in any case
Not a call center: one office, one line, hours printed on every page, and nobody sitting here overnight

Nine claims, and what stands behind each

What this trade advertises, set beside what is true at this desk
The claim	Here	Standing behind it
A quote at no charge	Stated here	Stated. The price list for everything this office does before you commit reads $0 on every line, and it is printed on ask for a price.
No fee added by this office	Stated here	Stated, and narrow deliberately: this office adds nothing to what the operating company charges. What they charge is taken apart on prices.
A line answered at any hour	Not stated	Posted hours are Mon to Thu 9:30 am to 6 pm, Fri 9:30 am to 4 pm Eastern. Nobody sits here at three in the morning, so nothing here says anybody does.
Licensed and bonded	Not stated	The District licenses no travel agency, and this company has bought no bond. No license number and no bond number appears anywhere here, because there is none to print.
Registered seller of travel	Not stated	California, Florida, Hawaii and Washington State register sellers of travel. This company is on none of those registers, holds no traveler money, and prints no registration number.
Industry accreditation	Not stated	No accreditation is held and no association mark is displayed. None of those bodies issues a license in any case; they issue memberships.
A price match	Not stated	Matching a price is a promise about a market this office does not run. What it does instead is show the build-up, so a figure can be compared honestly.
Flexible cancellation	Not stated	The schedule belongs to whoever holds the booking, and it differs by band. What it costs, by band and by date.
Offices around the country	Not stated	One office, on Wisconsin Avenue. It works with travelers anywhere, which is a different sentence.

What would change it: a real traveler, back from a real trip, giving written permission to quote them. Then the count moves and not before

Why the site is written like this

Most sites in this trade are built to reassure. This one is built to be audited.

Every assertion here points at a record on the same site that holds it up. The assertions this office cannot hold up are printed too, alongside the name of whoever would have to. That takes longer to write and it is the only version that survives a close reading.

There is a second reason, specific to being here. The District's Consumer Protection Procedures Act makes a practice unlawful whether or not anybody was actually misled, and it puts a positive duty on a business to state a material fact where leaving it out would tend to mislead. A site built the way this one is built is what that statute asks for.
