  • Some situations are very fluid and beyond our control.
  • As itinerary package details or pricing structures change, our advertisements will be updated.

  • If airfare has been included in a quote, then it should be noted that airfare pricing and availability is like the stock market - and subject to change at anytime prior to booking.
  • Many times international airfare can be placed on a no cost/no obligation hold for up to 72 hours on providing only your full name as it appears in your passport.

  • Travel insurance is highly recommended.
    • Quotes routinely provide the deluxe insurance package rate.
    • Conditions are subject to health and age qualifications.
