agree  Armorel Young: You could follow it up with "This confirmation is binding" ("binding" implies that you prob. can't get your money back if you cancel, which just "confirming" doesn't) - but unfortunately "confirm bindingly" won't do.

  -> another option in brackets (confirmation binding) may be in peak seasons when there is less room for manipulation for the travel agent. But from the limited text given, I would prefer to be silent on this 'money back' angle
