Further, reservations are subject to change in the event of a full-ship charter.
b. Company visits a large number of ports in numerous countries around the world. At any given moment there are likely to be ‘trouble spots’ in the world in terms of crime and/or war or terrorist actions. Accordingly, Company reserves the right at its sole option and discretion, without any liability for damages or refund of any kind, to deviate from the Vessel’s advertised or ordinary itinerary or route, to delay, advance or lengthen any sailing, to omit or change ports of call, to arrange for substantially equivalent transportation by another vessel and/or by other means of transportation, whether belonging to Company or not, and to cause the Passenger to disembark from the Vessel temporarily or permanently. Company may for any reason whatsoever cancel any sailing or terminate the Ticket/Contract at any time before departure of the Vessel, and in such event, Company’s only liability will be to refund to the Passenger the amount it has received for the Ticket/Contract. Any such changes are for Passenger’s safety and beyond Company’s control. While Company endeavor to provide reasonable protection for Passengers’ comfort and safety onboard its ships, Company cannot guarantee freedom from all risks associated with war, terrorism, crime or other potential sources or harm. Company reminds all passengers that they must ultimately assume responsibility for their actions while ashore.

c. If the Passenger is refused passage or leaves the Vessel prior to the end of the cruise for any of the reasons described in this section or for other reasons including, but not limited to, personal, medical, or business reasons, Company will not be required to refund any portion of the Ticket/Contract price, or be responsible for any of the Passenger’s costs.

Company strongly recommend that Passengers using wheelchairs travel with someone who is able to assist them, both on shore and on board the Vessel. Some ports of call are anchorage ports and physical conditions may preclude such passengers from going ashore. Decisions made by the Master of the Vessel in such circumstances will be binding in all instances. Physically challenged Passengers must bring and be responsible for all facilities relating to their said condition. If any such condition arises after the cruise is booked, the Passenger is required to advise Company in writing immediately.
