Trust, but verify
AI Disclaimer
Lanely is an AI content generator. It can be confidently, ridiculously wrong. Use it as a planning collaborator, never as the source of truth — confirm with official channels before you commit money or travel.

"Are you a travel agency?"
No. Lanely is not a travel agency, tour operator, online travel platform, flight or hotel reseller, visa or immigration adviser, or insurance broker. We do not collect, hold, or transmit travel funds. We do not have IATA accreditation, an ATOL bond, or any equivalent licence — because none of those activities apply to us.
"What is an itinerary I get from Lanely, exactly?"
It is an AI-generated draft: a structured plan generated from public data, editorial sources, and your prompt. It is a starting point for your own planning, not a booked trip. Distances, transit times, opening hours, prices, climate, and entry rules are estimates based on what was true at the time the model was trained — and AI can be confidently wrong.
"What must I verify with official sources?"
- Flights, trains, ferries — schedules and prices change daily. Confirm on the carrier's official site.
- Visas and entry rules — confirm with your destination's embassy or official immigration portal. Lanely will not advise on visas.
- Public health rules — vaccination requirements, declaration forms, quarantine rules. Check the destination's ministry of health.
- Travel insurance — purchase from a licensed broker. Lanely is not an insurance provider.
- Local safety — check your government's travel advisory before you travel (UK FCDO, US State Department, EU Re-Open, etc.).
- Opening hours, prices, holidays — verify with the venue.
"What can the AI get wrong?"
- Travel times that ignore current strikes, weather, or seasonal closures.
- Restaurants or shops that have closed since the model's training cutoff.
- Confidently named "must-see" venues that turn out to be closed or fictional.
- Prices in the wrong currency, era, or season.
- Cultural or religious-festival dates that drift year over year.
- Local laws and dress codes that vary regionally.
- Borders and place names in disputed regions.
"Are the chart reels real footage of the destinations?"
No. Reels and stamp animations are AI-generated cinematic compositions. They are designed to evoke a destination, not to document it. Treat them as movie trailers, not as guarantees.
"Should I rely on Lanely for safety-critical decisions?"
No. Do not use Lanely as your sole source for medical evacuation routes, embassy contacts, conflict-zone advisories, or natural-disaster warnings. Use governmental and humanitarian sources for those.
Lanely outputs do not constitute medical, legal, immigration, financial, tax, insurance, or professional travel advice. For decisions in those domains, consult a qualified, licensed professional in your jurisdiction.
"Can minors travel internationally with a Lanely itinerary?"
Lanely does not generate itineraries that imply unaccompanied international travel for minors. If a draft is for a family the legal guardian is responsible for the actual decision, supervision, and any documentation requirements (consent letters, guardianship paperwork, etc.).
"Does Lanely generate content for sanctioned or conflict regions?"
We do not produce "encouraging" itineraries for active conflict zones, regions on UK or EU sanctions lists, or destinations with active travel advisories warning against all travel. The Acceptable Use Policy lists prohibited destinations.
"How should I treat AI's confidence?"
Treat every AI assertion as a hypothesis you must check. Even the most plausible-sounding Lanely paragraph can be wrong. Reels are mood pieces. Charts are sketches. Verify before you book, board, or send your kids.
