TERMS AND AGREEMENTS
Prices & Payment
This McCall's Quilting Adventure program to Ireland is being operated by G2 Adventures (G2). G2 will only reserve space on this trip with receipt of a registration form and deposit for each person traveling.
The deposit amount is $1000 per person per trip.
The deposit is due at the time of booking. You will not be asked for your credit card information online. The G2 office will call you and will process your credit card information by phone. Your invoiced balance is due
June 1, 2010. If balance is not received 120 days prior to departure, G2 will no longer hold your reservation and reserves the right to book an alternate traveler.
All payments made to G2 must be made by Check, Money Order or Credit Card. Checks drawn on foreign banks must be imprinted by the bank as payable in U.S. funds. G2 reserves the right to refuse acceptance or deny participation prior to departure of anyone it deems unsuitable for a trip.
The trip price is subject to increase based on fuel surcharges issued by the airline.
Reservations
As this trip and flights may fill several months before departure, G2 encourages early reservations. Remember, we cannot confirm your space on this trip if you have not completed the Registration Form and paid your deposit.
Late Sign-Up & Stand-by
G2 cannot guarantee acceptance of late sign-ups, those made less than 120 days prior to departure. If we are able to accept deposits less than 120 days before a trip departure, a late sign-up fee of 5% of the total land costs will be assessed to cover administrative charges necessary to expedite your reservation and transmit your departure materials. Balance payment will also be due at the time of booking. In the event the tour is fully booked at the time we receive your deposit and Registration Form, we will offer you the option of being placed on a stand-by list, or return your deposit in full. If you agree to go on the stand-by list and are not accepted on the trip, your deposit will be returned in full.
Cancellations & Refunds
You may cancel within 10 days of making your reservation to receive the full refund of your deposit, less credit card processing fees.
We ask for a deposit of $1,000, which will confirm your reservation. At 120 days prior to departure, the full payment is due. If you cancel your reservation 120 days or more prior to trip departure, we will refund all but a $500-per-person administrative fee. If you must cancel your reservation within 120 days of departure, no refund will be given.
We strongly recommend that you purchase trip cancellation insurance, available for coverage of expenses if you cancel due to illness or accident.
Cancellation and determination of cancellation fee is effective on the date of our receipt of your written notification. In addition, you are responsible for all airfare cancellation penalties, and any other non G2 associated expenses and penalties, which are not included above. Payments due at the time of cancellation remain your responsibility. No partial refunds are possible for unused hotel rooms, land travel, or sight-seeing arrangements included in the land cost. Deposits or cancellation costs cannot be applied to future trips. In the event G2 cancels a trip, for any reason, all money will be refunded.
