If Airport Staff GmbH itself enters into a tenancy agreement for the Customer in connection and /or in connection with the fulfilment of an order, the Customer shall consequently undertake irrevocably to be responsible in full for all losses arising from the tenancy agreement, for example, to the rented premises. The Customer takes note that Airport Staff GmbH shall not be taking out an insurance policy for the rented premises to cover itself.

c) Notice of termination less than 14 days before the event: Airport Staff GmbH is in this case entitled to demand the agreed remuneration; however it would have to allow those costs it has saved as a result of the contract being cancelled to be offset against the sum it demands from the Customer. The costs saved will include for example the printing, travelling and cleaning costs etc.
