For bookings made less than 45 days prior to your arrival, full payment is required to secure your reservation. If the cost of your selected services is less than 500 euro, full payment is required to secure the reservation regardless of your booking date.

Inability of execution due to “Force Majeure”
In the event of force majeure circumstances arising in your travel destination, be it political upheavals (war, governmental lockdown etc.) or natural disasters (pandemic, catastrophic earthquakes or floods, volcano eruption etc.), which cause inability to provide the agreed upon services, then the above standard cancelation policy or non-refundable cancelation policy is not applicable.

The adjusted policy that applies to you is dependent on whether you purchased (A) a complete travel package or (B) some combination of individual travel products. It is worth noting that a complete travel package consists of at least the following services (hotel accommodation, transfers and domestic flight or ferry tickets).

• Complete vacation packages
  In this case a flat cancelation fee of 200 € per person is applied. Please note that this is the minimum cancelation fee, which applies only as long as other providers of the services included in your package (hotels, cruise lines, ferry companies, airlines) do not charge any additional cancelation fees, having also adjusted their respective policies to the nature of the force majeure event. If that is not the case, any additional cancelation fees will be added on top of the aforementioned 200 € per person.
• Any combination of individual travel products
  In this case a cancelation fee of 15% of the total cost of your purchased services is applied as administrative and handling fee. Please note that this is the minimum cancelation fee, which applies only as long as other providers of the services included in your package (hotels, cruise lines, ferry companies, airlines) do not charge any additional cancelation fees, having also adjusted their respective policies to the nature of the force majeure event. If that is not the case, any additional cancelation fees will be added on top of the aforementioned 15%.

Refund procedure during “Force Majeure” events
In the event of simultaneous mass cancelations during a “Force Majeure” event, emergency legislation by the official State Authorities regarding the refund procedure can be introduced. During such an event and in accordance with this temporary emergency legislation, we reserve the right to issue credit vouchers instead of immediate cash refunds. The aforementioned vouchers will have a specific duration and after their expiry, the holder is entitled to receive a refund in the form of the initial payment, either to a credit card or a bank account.
