DISCLAIMER
PASSPORTS: Everyone, including children and infants, MUST have a VALID passport to travel internationally (not Passport Card). Failure to comply will result in denial of boarding, no refund, no exceptions (out of the USA). TropiGal Travel LLC is NOT responsible for passports in ANY way. Passports are required to be valid for 6 months from your return date. PASSPORT CARDS ARE NOT VALID FOR TRAVEL INTERNATIONALLY VIA AIR! PLEASE CONTACT YOUR AGENT TO ASSURE YOU HAVE PROPER DOCUMENTATION, LEGAL NAMES & ID FOR YOUR TRIP.
CHARGES: You authorize the charge of your credit/debit card upon traveler registration or payment on our website. Any claim of misuse or false charge of your card will be construed as fraud and reported. You agree to pay all charges/fees set forth by TropiGal Travel LLC, its vendors, and/or suppliers. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of TropiGal Travel LLC's Terms & Conditions, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees, costs, and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which he/she may be entitled. The venue for any legal proceedings related to TropiGal Travel LLC's services shall be the state courts located in Glynn County, Georgia, or the federal courts located in Atlanta, Georgia.
CHANGES: Changes can be made, but are subject to additional fees. TropiGal Travel LLC may charge a flat rate of $25.00 per change, per person, per booking. This charge is not inclusive of any fees charged by airlines, third-party suppliers/vendors, land-based accommodations, or any other entity involved in one’s booking. ANY changes made to your existing room reservation are subject to the current rates, promotions, and terms at the time of change.
FINAL PAYMENT: The final payment MUST be received NO LATER THAN 45 days prior to departure. Final payments are not automatically charged. Please note your calendar of this final payment date. I try to send reminders about a week before final payment is due, however, reminders may not be sent. I strongly urge final payments to be made a few days prior to final due date incase of bank and/or credit card processing issues. Additional payments can be submitted prior to final payment.

Cancellation due to non-payment is not covered by travel insurance.
CANCELLATIONS: Once deposits are made, they are non-refundable, unless you purchased travel protection (insurance), which is purchased upon making your initial payment (deposit or pay in full). If travel protection was purchased, you will receive the money back you are due (as per your insurance policy), less the purchase price of said policy. In addition, TropiGal Travel LLC may charge up to $100 per person for any cancellation, per booking. This charge is not inclusive of any fees charged by airlines, third-party suppliers/vendors, land-based accommodations, or any other entity involved in one’s booking.

All the above would be protected with the optional Travel Insurance with the exception of cancellation due to late or no payment. If you do not have insurance – natural disasters (such as hurricanes), cancellations for ANY reason (medical/personal emergencies, cancelation of the wedding, etc.) do not relieve you from these penalties. ONLY the Travel Insurance will ensure your coverage. All cancellations must be received in writing.
CANCEL FOR ANY REASON TRAVEL INSURANCE: Your TropiGal Travel LLC Agent will quote your insurance policy cost upon the initial trip quote. Cancel for Any Reason Insurance can be purchased at the time your reservation is made or added after the initial trip deposit is received, up until final payment.

Cancel for Any Reason Insurance will allow you to cancel for any reason up to the morning of departure (prior to flight departure). Insurance does NOT cover items you purchase outside TropiGal Travel LLC (i.e. airfare, tours, excursions, etc).
DECLINATION/REFUSAL OF TRAVEL INSURANCE: Travel Insurance declined unless otherwise stated on the invoice.
