Terms & Conditions
ACCOMMODATIONS:
For Land Only packages (flight not included) extra hotel nights are available upon request for an additional cost. Big Blue Travel, Inc. reserves the right to substitute hotels of equal rating. Buyer must check into the hotel room on the scheduled arrival day of the package to avoid being considered a "no show". If a passenger is a "no show", Big Blue Travel, Inc. is not responsible for providing any portion(s) of the package to Buyer. Most hotels expect departing guests to vacate rooms by 11 AM and arriving guests to check-in after 3 PM to allow for cleaning and maid service.
CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY: THERE ARE NO CANCELLATIONS.
All payments are non-refundable unless otherwise directly stated. No refunds or credits will be given for any reason including but not limited to the following: reductions in group size, unused tours, unused portions of packages and failure of Buyer to comply with the terms and conditions listed herein. In an event of a reduction in group size, corresponding deposits of canceled passenger blocks are non-refundable and non-transferable (e.g. to the balance of the remaining group). If cancellation by one or more passengers alters the room requirements of the remaining passengers, those passengers still traveling must pay the revised rate. We regret that we cannot make exceptions for personal emergencies. We recommend purchasing the Big Blue Travel Insurance through Arch.
CONDITIONS:
All prices are subject to change without prior notice until your reservation is confirmed. All prices published for each package are per person rates. Acknowledgement from Buyer and/or signed copy of these Terms and Conditions must be received by Big Blue Travel along with required payments in order to confirm any reservation. Big Blue Travel reserves the right to accept or decline any person as a member of its tour or to cancel a tour completely in its sole discretion. Big Blue Travel reserves the right to cancel any reservation and will remit a full refund to the cancelled party. If the event is cancelled or postponed for any reason whatsoever, seller will refund to buyer all deposits paid by buyer not yet utilized by seller to purchase package components, and seller will use its best efforts to obtain refunds for any package components already purchased.
