TRAVEL DOCUMENTS

Your airline tickets and/or charter vouchers, travel documents, passenger ticket contract and all other pertinent travel information will be sent to either you or your travel agent approximately 2 weeks prior to your departure. Full text of the essential information required to travel is also normally posted on the Atlantis web site (atlantisevents.com) approximately 3 weeks prior to departure. Some documents are sent electronically and will be sent via email or other electronic method. Paper documents will not be delivered to destinations outside of the USA or Canada. These guests can receive their documents electronically, or may pick up full travel documents by request upon arrival at the cruise, resort, or event. Travel documents will not be sent to guests who have not returned their correctly signed Atlantis Confirmation Form by 3 weeks prior to departure, or for guests who reserve within 3 weeks of departure. For these guests, documents will be held for collection at the cruise, resort, or event.

PASSPORTS & PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP

All passports, visas and other travel documents required for travel, embarkation and disembarkation, and at all ports of call or otherwise required to gain entry to all countries are your sole responsibility. All international travel requires a valid passport. Visas may be required, depending on the destination. Citizens of countries other than the U.S. should contact an embassy or consulate of the destination country for specific entry requirements. These documents are your responsibility and Atlantis is not responsible for any delays you may encounter due to incomplete or incorrect documentation, nor shall Atlantis or its Supplier, as defined below, have any liability therefore. Should you fail to possess valid documentation, you will be denied boarding or entry and will not be entitled to any refund. Your full compliance with all customs regulations and all local and national laws is your own responsibility.

ATLANTIS FAIR RATE GURANTEE

Once Atlantis has received your deposit or full payment, your rate is secure except in the event of substantial increases in operating costs, fuel surcharges, tariffs or taxes prior to the departure date. In such cases, we reserve the right to add a surcharge, not to exceed $150 per person. All assessed government or quasi-government fees and taxes are subject to change without notice at any time, and we reserve the right to add a surcharge for these fees and taxes whether you have a confirmed booking under deposit or have made final payment. Should Atlantis lower the rate for your specified class of accommodation, you may request either the lower rate (and a refund of the difference) or an upgrade to the class of accommodation that matches the rate you originally paid. The choice is yours. Please note that this only applies to accommodations booked or held by Atlantis' Supplier and does not apply to airline tickets, outside tours, pre and post cruise hotels, and other services that Atlantis may offer as an add-on option.

CHANGES TO ITINERARY OR VACATION DETAILS

In the unlikely event that a major change (involving a change in hotel or ship, departure or return date, departure city or destination) becomes necessary, Atlantis will attempt to notify you as soon as possible. If you find the revised arrangements unacceptable, you will have the option to cancel without charge provided that you notify us in writing within 7 days of your receipt of notice of the change, but not later than the date of departure. In the event of a change, Atlantis will try to substitute comparable services. Cruise ship itineraries are always subject to change without notice and any alterations except to embarkation points shall not be considered a major change. In the event of strikes, lockouts, stoppages of labor, riots, weather conditions, mechanical difficulties, hostilities, acts of terrorism, civil commotion, or any other reason whatsoever, Supplier has the right to cancel, advance, postpone, or substitute any scheduled itinerary or port of call without prior notice. Neither Supplier nor Atlantis shall be responsible for any failure to adhere to published arrival and departure times for any of its ports of call. Atlantis reserves the right to (1) cancel the trip at any time prior to departure and refund all monies in full settlement of its obligations, and (2) decline to accept or retain any person as a member of the trip.
