Dive Adventures as an agent may receive fees, commissions, gifts or financial incentives from third parties under this contract.

BOOKING PROCEDURE
The booking contract between you and us is confirmed by paying the deposit stated on your travel proposal and when we receive a completed booking form from you and when we accept your booking in writing.

PASSENGER INFORMATION
Please note that your surname and first given and middle names must be the same as per the passport you will be travelling on.
You must check all of your booking documents and invoices thoroughly and advise us as soon as possible if there is any discrepancy. If booking details submitted are incorrect, we will try our best to correct any details without cost to you. However airlines and other operators used may have amendment / cancellation fees that we will have to pass on.

DEPOSIT PAYMENT
We cannot guarantee the availability of any services until all deposit amounts and your Booking Form have been received. Once your deposit is received, if we are unable to confirm availability of any services in your itinerary, we will contact you to discuss alternative options. If alternative travel arrangements cannot be agreed, then we will refund the deposit paid by you prior to a booking being confirmed.
The acceptance by us of payment of a deposit alone does not represent an acceptance of booking. A booking will be deemed to have been accepted once we have confirmed your booking in writing at which time your deposit becomes non-refundable. The deposit amount is dependent upon the trip and services booked and will be advised prior booking and stated on your invoice.

PAYMENTS BY CREDIT CARD
Credit card surcharges of 1.3% for Visa and MasterCard and 2.0% for American Express apply when paying by credit card. You authorise us to charge all fees incurred by you in relation to the services provided to the credit card designated by you.

PAYMENTS BY DIRECT DEPOSIT
Please ensure that your Booking Number and Surname are included in the deposit transaction details. Account details will be stated on your travel proposal / invoice. Please call the office or email your consultant to advise your payment details to ensure your payment is correctly allocated to your booking Eg : S12345 + SURNAME

The last date for payment by you to us of the balance of the cost of your booking (final quotation price) will be visible as the Final Payment Date on your invoice.
We will notify you in writing of the last date for payment for any payment installations required after we have confirmed acceptance of your booking.
If your final payment is not received by the last date for payment, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled. If your booking is cancelled in this manner, you agree that you will not be entitled to any refund whatsoever, including any deposit/s paid by you.

TRAVEL INSURANCE
It is highly recommended that you take out appropriate travel insurance cover, please note that many dive operators insist on you having appropriate insurance coverage. Without this some operators will not allow you to undertake underwater activities. We suggest that travel insurance is taken at the time a deposit is paid as this may prevent loss of deposit for covered cancellation circumstances beyond your control.
Travel insurance cover should be taken out not only against normal travel risks (including supplier insolvency risks), but also against additional risks appropriate to the activities and destination country/ies in your travel arrangements.
Note that we do not accept any responsibility for the cover provided by your travel insurance.

PACKAGE PRICES
Packages are inclusive of service fees. In most cases, Dive Adventures provides a package deal. It is not possible for the cost of airfares, hotels, transfers, tours, etc as part of a package deal to be broken down.

CHANGES IN PRICES
In this time of escalating prices and economic instability it is impossible to foreshadow accurately fluctuations in exchange rates or increases in the cost of fuel, accommodation and services in general. Dive Adventures reserves the right to adjust our prices as may be necessary at any time.

GROUP DEPARTURES
Are based on a minimum number of participants travelling together. The package price may increase if numbers are not reached.

TRAVEL DOCUMENTS

If you require a printed copy of your travel documents, please inform your travel consultant at the point of booking. A documentation service fee will apply.
Documents are aimed to be sent out as early as possible. However due to supplier processes, these may be sent up to two weeks prior to departure.
You are responsible for checking the accuracy of all documents provided to you.
Amendments to travel documents may be subject to supplier conditions and/or restrictions and can incur a change or cancellation fee. Travel documents are non-transferable.

BOOKING AMENDMENT REQUESTS
Any changes requested by you after booking acceptance by us may change the final package price. A fee of $50.00 per amendment will be charged to cover administrative costs, in addition to any charges levied by our suppliers.
An amendment constitutes a change to an existing booking and not transfer to another tour / supplier, wherein cancellation fees may apply.

CANCELLATION REQUESTS
Should you wish to cancel your booking, all cancellations need to be advised in writing / via email to us (The arrival date of the e-mail will be the day of cancellation) and the following conditions will apply:
Bookings cancelled at any time after confirmation are subject to the forfeit of deposit/s and may also forfeit deposits paid to third parties.
If cancellations occur after the final payment date: cancellation fees of up to 100% of the total booking cost apply. Cancellation costs are subject to the terms and conditions of our suppliers. Dive Adventures reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee for services rendered and loss of commission as a result of cancellation.

CHANGES & CANCELLATIONS BY OUR SUPPLIERS
On occasion, due to reasons beyond our control, our suppliers may decide to reschedule or cancel a service that you have purchased as part of your travel arrangements. Dive Adventures reserves the right to change or cancel your booking due to above said operating requirements or circumstances beyond our control. Should we need to do this we will give you as much notice as we can and where available offer you comparable alternative arrangements.
If you accept the replacement services, then your booking cost will be adjusted. Flight and tour / cruise refunds depend on the particular rules of the airfare purchased and / or operator terms and conditions.
In the event of cancellation where an alternative has been offered by the supplier and/or services are no longer required due to travel re-arrangement, these costs may be charged in addition to the above terms.
We do not accept any responsibility for any loss suffered by you, either directly or indirectly, as a result of an insolvency event by any travel supplier. You will be responsible for all rebooking costs associated with such an event. If such an event occurs and you cancel your booking, then the cancellation policy applies.

CHANGE OF ITINERARY
While we will endeavour to adhere to all itineraries as advertised or quoted, reasonable changes in your itinerary may be made by us or any supplier where it is deemed necessary or advisable.
If a major change in your itinerary is due to a force majeure, or unforeseen circumstances, no compensation is payable by us to you. We will endeavour to ensure that any changes made to alter your itinerary will be made with your best interests in mind. Itineraries are prepared as per current schedules.
If flight schedule changes occur it may be necessary to alter the itineraries. Climatic conditions such as cyclones, storms and snow may also necessitate sudden changes. Air routings are subject to availability. Routings are not guaranteed and are subject to change at any time. We are not liable for expenses you incur if you miss your flight or flight connection.
In the event of an unforeseeable change of itinerary, if the services of the original ticketed airline are not used, cancellation fees of up to 100% may apply as per the conditions of the fare and additional airfares will be required to be purchased if other carriers are used.
