Credit card bookings, the Provider should be advised of your credit card number when making your reservation directly with us. For security purposes, we are required to collect the guest’s credit card billing address, card expiration date and the customer verification code every time a payment is applied. 

 

Your Travel Agent shall hold all monies for each, and every person named in the booking until the booking is confirmed at which time your Travel Agent shall provide those monies promptly to us.

This credit cannot be used as a deposit or insurance payment for a future booking and can only be used as a credit (no cash value). Only one credit per person can be applied to each cruise or cruise/tour booked and is combinable with all current Trafalgar promotions.

 

Revision Fee: A fee of $50 per person, per transaction, will be charged for any revision made to the reservation unless the change increases the value of the booking. A passenger name change, and cruise/tour date change will be treated as a cancellation subject to our cancellation policy, and a new reservation must be made. Any revision to a booking may result in the loss of a confirmed airline reservation, Trafalgar change fees (refer to the Air Travel change fees section for details), increased airfare, and any charges levied by the airlines, which will be payable by the passenger.

 

Air Cancellations: If you, as the Passenger, choose to cancel your air arrangements, airline imposed penalties may be up to 100% of the air ticket price. Published fares, promotional fares and some other airfares are non-refundable. Not showing up for your outbound flight as booked and ticketed will be considered a no-show, and all the connecting flights associated with this one, even a return flight will be canceled and no refund will apply.

Airfare: Trafalgar wants to help make your entire vacation smooth sailing, so we offer great values on airfares from most major cities in the U.S. Please contact your Travel Professional or Trafalgar for the most up-to-date prices. As airfares and schedules are subject to availability, we encourage you to book early. Business Class flights may not be available for flight segments within the U.S or Europe and may require travel in economy class. The Provider does not hold an allocation of air seats, and all flight reservations are made on request and are subject to the terms and conditions of the airline. A separate non-refundable air deposit of $450 per person is due for the airfare booked in conjunction with a Trafalgar cruise/tour and is required at the time air is booked. Upon receipt of air deposit your airfare, tax and fuel surcharges are final. You may cancel your air within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund of the cost of the airfare. Once air is booked and deposited, we may issue your air ticket at any time. 

 

Air Travel Change Fees: If you, as the Passenger, change your air travel itinerary before your ticket is issued, you will be charged a $50 per person change fee (see Revision Fee). This charge will apply each time you make a change. If you change your air travel itinerary after your ticket is issued, you will be charged a $100 per person per change fee, and you will be responsible for any increase in airfare and/or penalties levied by the airline, which may be up to 100% of the air ticket value.

 

Airline Schedule Changes and Cancellations: If the airline notifies Trafalgar of a major schedule change, we will notify you or your travel agent by email. Changes in flight time or operating airline will not result in eligibility for reimbursement or reduced change fees should you not accept the schedule change offered by the airline. If the airline cancels your flight(s) and is not able to protect you on alternate flight(s) Trafalgar will attempt to secure new air for you and any fare differential will be yours to pay. Should you not accept the new air itinerary within the timeframe allowed penalties by the airline, which may be up to 100% of the air ticket value will apply. Not showing up for your outbound flight as booked and ticketed will be considered a no-show, and all the connecting flights associated with this one, even a return flight will be cancelled, and no refund will apply.

In such cases, we will do everything we can to make sure the locations visited, the excursions taken and the hotels or vessels offered are similar to the ones originally planned.    Changes which are minor in nature will not result in eligibility for a refund or compensation, these include but are not limited to changing order of itineraries, arrival/departure times, providing alternative stops and experiences and provision of alternative accommodation.    Where Uniworld makes a major change unless the change arises for unusual or unforeseeable reasons outside of our control (also referred to as reasons of "force majeure", and includes war (and threat of war), riot, industrial dispute, actual or threatened terrorist activity and its consequences, civil disturbances, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, epidemics, pandemics, unavoidable technical problems with transportation and any other similar events):   Before the departure of the cruise guests are entitled to cancel the cruise, receive a full refund of monies paid and compensation as laid out in the table below.  After the departure of the cruise-tour guests are entitled to cancel the remaining portion of the cruise-tour, receive a refund of the unused portion of cruise-tour and compensation of £50 per person.    In the event of a major change and the guest chooses to remain on the cruise, or an alternate Trafalgar program, the guest is only entitled to a refund of any price difference where the price of the cruise provided is less than the cruise booked.    Advanced, Cancelled, or Delayed Sailing:Trafalgar reserves the right to cancel, advance, postpone or modify scheduled departure, return or itinerary dates, as well as locations, events and schedules, and may, but is not obligated to, substitute, vary, alter, reschedule, cancel and/or relocate any accommodations, vessels, modes of transportation and other aspects of the vacation .
