CANCELLATION DEADLINES
Once you have accepted your trip spot and we have officially assigned your ticket, you will forfeit your deposit if you cancel within 65 days of departure.
Cancellation deadlines are based on your departure date. Use our calculator to determine the last day you can cancel and receive a deposit refund for your trip.
Be nice! Even if you cancel after the deadline, please let us know ASAP so that we can adjust our arrangements and potentially accommodate someone else who still wants to travel.
