Yes, but by then it is too late to cancel the ticket. The whole concept of making terms of a contract available is so that people can decline to accept the contract if they feel that the terms are unacceptable. This is why limitations on products about warranty, use etc. give you a right to refund if you refuse to accept. What good does providing me notice of the terms do, if it is done when it is too late for me to reject those terms.
