Cancellation:

The initial deposit, as well as subsequent payments, will be used to purchase airline tickets and pay deposits for accommodations, travel arrangements, etc. in the UK. Therefore, if you must withdraw from the trip, irrespective of reason, a refund will not be possible. I strongly suggest that you protect yourself with the purchase of trip cancellation insurance. I will try to retain a wait list for this trip and it is possible that if you end up not being able to participate I will attempt to find a replacement for you, however, it is your responsibility to find a replacement or to have insurance.

Please note that in the event that the trip is canceled, due to circumstances beyond our control, a refund of the initial deposit and any payments made will be issued.

Travel Insurance:

I highly recommend travel insurance! Access America is a good choice, however there are many companies to choose from. This will ensure if you have any travel issues you will be covered. You will be required to sign a statement saying whether you have travel insurance or not.

General Information:

Approximately three weeks prior to the trip you will be sent an information packet containing flight information, baggage requirements, hints on what to bring and other useful information. The climate in the UK will vary from hot and humid to cold and rainy. Although it is summer, rain should be expected and prepared for. Again, a more exhaustive list will be provided after you are registered for the trip.
