PAYMENTS AND CANCELLATION. Final payment is due prior to departure. If final and full payment is not received by the applicable due date, reservations are subject to cancellation and deposits shall be forfeited. Your right to a refund if you change or cancel your travel plans is limited. All cancellation requests must be sent to Abby Travels in writing. As a result of cancellation, Abby Travels’ cancellation penalties will apply: Cancellations made with more than 8 weeks’ notice (prior to departure): You will be refunded all funds minus the non- refundable deposit, as this represents our direct cost of booking and preparing your tour. Cancellations made with less than 8 weeks’ notice (prior to departure): You will be refunded 50% of the total tour price. 50% is non-refundable, as this represents our direct cost of canceling any arrangements made for your tour. Cancellations made with less than 4 weeks’ notice (prior to departure): No refund will be given if tours are canceled with less than 4 weeks’ notice, as Abby Travels will be charged for all costs such as guides, transportation, etc. As the tours require a minimum number of travelers to operate and all hotel and tour schedules are arranged ahead of time, any person failing to appear on the day of departure will not be refunded. If the number of passengers falls below the minimum required, a surcharge may be imposed or the tour canceled.

 

As AIRLINE CHECK-INS, SCHEDULE RECONFIRMATIONS, AND AIRLINE RESERVATIONS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN YOUR TOUR PACKAGE, it is the Customer’s responsibility to make appropriate air arrangements, as well as transportation to and from the destination where the tour officially begins and ends. Abby Travels shall not assume any responsibility for any air and/or ground schedule changes.

 

TRAVEL INSURANCE is strongly recommended for all travelers. Your selection of travel insurance should protect you against trip cancellation, loss of luggage, and medical emergency. Abby Travels shall not be responsible for any injuries, damages, or losses caused to any traveler in connection with mechanical or construction failures or difficulties, diseases, local laws, climatic conditions, criminal acts or abnormal conditions or developments, or any other actions, omissions, or conditions outside of our control.

 

HEALTH/SECURITY/TRAVEL DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS. Each Customer is responsible to make absolutely certain to have the proper immunizations and testing (including for COVID-19), and required documentation of such immunizations and testing before travel, and to make the necessary accommodation for security rules imposed by government authorities. Abby Travels shall not assume responsibility for the accuracy of health requirements or vaccination(s) and testing(s) and/or documentation prior to departure or upon landing at the final destination. See your health practitioner for advice. Prior to travel, required inoculations and testings, if any, must be recorded by Customer’s health practitioner on a valid vaccination certificate, which the Customer must carry for proof of inoculation/testing where required. If you are concerned about taking any medications or receiving certain inoculations, check with your health practitioner BEFORE booking. Check the US State Department Website http://travel.state.gov, for relevant information relating to travel to specific destinations, and the Centers for Disease Control http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/ relating to health issues.
