Deposit & Final Payment: An initial deposit must be made within 48 hours of
reserving space. Generally a $400 deposit per person is due to confirm a reservation
for fares over $500 but under $1000, a $600 per person deposit is due for fares
over $1000 but under $2000, a $700 deposit is due for fares over $2000. However,
some deposit requirements may be higher or lower based on supplier, departure requirements
and other variables. All prices are plus port charges and government, hotel, air
departure and other service fees, surcharges or taxes and are subject to change
at any time without notice. Additional surcharges may apply even after payment of
deposit. Final payment is due 90 days prior to departure. If you prefer to pay in
Canadian Dollars please note the conversion rate to U.S. Dollars fluctuates daily
based on exchange rate as quoted in the Wall Street Journal. To take advantage of
the cash/check discount (when applicable) the maximum amount that can be charged
to a credit card is the deposit. No additional payments or extra amounts allowed.
Cancellation Policy: Loss of deposit (up to a maximum of $250 per person) for any
cancellation after booking. From 90 days until 75 days prior to departure there
is a penalty of 25% of the cruise fare or full loss of deposit amount (whichever
is greater). After final payment, cancellation penalties are as follows: 75 - 60
days prior is 75%; within 59 days is full penalty. Percentages apply to total cost
of tour including any air adds.
Documents: You will receive documents approximately
10 days before your departure date, so long as final payment has been received.
If you have two addresses, please clearly state to which address you would like
your documents sent.
We Highly Recommend Cancellation Protection Insurance:
Cancellation
insurance begins at $38.00 per person and the premium is based on the total amount
spent for your vacation and your age group. To cover yourself for any preexisting
conditions we recommend purchasing insurance at the time of initial deposit. Insurance
will cover loss of deposit and cancellation penalties. Insurance will automatically
be placed on your invoice unless you specifically request that insurance not be
provided by signing a waiver of coverage. Coverage will not be in place until final
payment is received.
Transportation: Free bus from select locations is offered for
most departures from Miami or Ft. Lauderdale cruise ports. Custom pickup may be
offered when your group reaches a minimum requirement of passengers at one approved
location. The minimum requirement is set by the supplier (excluding Princess Cruises,
which does not offer this complimentary custom pickup service). If your group does
not reach the minimum requirement of passengers, transportation is still offered
from the central pickup locations. No credit or refunds will be issued for transportation
not used. Your booking office is not responsible for changes in pickup locations
or times.
Luggage: The above rates have been costed for ONE piece of luggage per
person. Additional surcharges will be applied for additional baggage.
Proof of Citizenship:
A valid passport is your best form of proof of US citizenship. Most cruises leaving
the United States will accept a raised seal birth certificate with a government
issued photo identification. A Visa may be required for some international destinations.
If you are not a US citizen you must check with your consulate office to insure
proper documents. Your booking office can provide you with the phone numbers. Your
booking office will not be responsible for proper proof of citizenship, Visa, vaccinations
or any fees associated with such documentation or inoculations.
*** Travelers to
and from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Panama, Mexico and Canada will be required to have
a passport or other government issued photo identification to enter or re-enter
the United States. For Minors under Age 14 you must establish proof of citizenship
AND proof of relationship. Previous U.S. passports are not acceptable as proof of
relationship to the applying parent(s)/guardian(s). This is a change from prior
travel requirements and will affect all United States citizens entering the United
States from countries within the Western Hemisphere who do not currently possess
valid passports. This new requirement will also affect certain foreign nationals
who currently are not required to present a passport to travel to the United States.
Most Canadian citizens, citizens of the British Overseas Territory of Bermuda, and
to a lesser degree, Mexican citizens will be affected by the implementation of this requirement.*
** Dates of Implementation are as follows:
January 8, 2007 – Requirement
applied to all air and sea travel to or from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America,
the Caribbean, and Bermuda.
January 1, 2008 – Requirement extended to all land border
crossings as well as air and sea travel.
Responsibility: The responsibility of your
booking office is strictly limited. As an operator we sell the services of cruises,
hotels, restaurants, airlines, attractions, etc. The operator is not responsible
for any intentional or unintentional actions or omissions by suppliers. Your booking
office reserves the right to substitute any services of similar or equal quality.
Your booking office cannot be responsible for circumstances, causes, effects, weather,
strikes, bankruptcy, etc., of suppliers. Your booking office cannot guarantee airlines,
flight times, seat assignments, hotels, restaurants, shows, motorcoach vendors,
or any other suppliers and changes may occur with regard to those suppliers and
the services booked. Changes to the suppliers and/or the services booked have in
no way any effect on your ability to cancel or waive the cancellation penalties
that will be imposed as a result of your cancellation. Depending on home air gateway,
a forced overnight in the originating city may be necessary at the traveler’s expense.
Entrance & departure taxes assessed by any city, state or country cannot be
prepaid and will be each person’s responsibility at the time of departure.
Special Needs: Guest with special needs including wheelchair should be self-sufficient or
accompanied by a companion to provide any required assistance. Some ports of call
and shore excursions may limit special needs passengers from leaving the vessel.
Passengers must bring wheelchair for their own use and must notify your booking
office before final payment.
Acceptance: Acceptance of cruise or tour participation
means that the passenger agrees with all of the above terms and conditions and that
each participant agrees that your booking office shall not be liable for any damage,
loss or expenses occasioned by any suppliers. It is also agreed by and between passenger(s)
and your booking office that all disputes and matters whatever arising under, in
connection with or incidental to this agreement shall be litigated, if at all, in
and before a court located in the city of Minneapolis, County of Hennepin, State
of Minnesota, U.S.A. to exclusion of the courts of any other city, state or country.
