Prior to making a Booking you should ensure that you have read and are prepared to accept these terms and conditions, and have available the information required to make the Booking.  The Contract2.1 Once FOCL has accepted the Booking and all payments due at the time of making the Booking, including the deposit and where applicable the full balance of the Price, a Contract made between you and FOCL exists on these terms and conditions and covers the person or entity making the Booking and each and every Passenger in respect of whom the Booking is made (collectively referred to as 'you' in these terms and conditions). Unless expressly agreed by FOCL, the parties specified under a Contract as being the "Passengers" for the purposes of the Holiday may not be altered at any time. In addition the Holiday under a Contract cannot subsequently be amended or transferred to a lower priced Holiday other than as set out herein. Bookings must be accepted by FOCL and cannot be accepted by any third party. 2.2 Notwithstanding paragraph 2.1, FOCL has the right to refuse to accept any Booking even if a deposit and the full balance of the Holiday Price has been paid by you.2.3 FOCL is a bonded member of ABTA (No. WO637). It is bonded as a tour operator and holds an Air Travel Organiser's Licence issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (ATOL No. 5016). This ensures that where the Holiday includes flights, in the unlikely event of insolvency of the licence holder, the CAA will arrange to refund money paid for an advance Booking and ensure that Passengers are not stranded abroad. In Ireland FOCL is bonded as a tour operator and holds a Tour Operator's Licence No. T0212 issued by the Commission for Aviation Regulation. FOCL is also a member of the Passenger Shipping Association.2.4 Any cabin, room or seat Booked or notified under a Contract may be changed to another of equivalent or higher standard at the sole discretion of FOCL or any other party acting as operator or carrier.2.5 The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between FOCL and the Passenger and unless otherwise stated in these terms and conditions supersedes all other agreements, oral or written. 2.6 Where organised tours, Shuttle Transport Services, excursions or programmes are available during a Holiday, they are not part of the Contract, unless otherwise notified. Where FOCL makes such tours available, it does so as agent for the operator of the tours and any amount paid is not part of the Holiday Price, whether or not the tours are booked or paid for at the same time as, or before or during, the Holiday. However, should FOCL, its employees, servants, agents or sub-contractors, the owner and operator of the vessel or any other person involved in the supply of services in connection with this Contract be deemed to have any liability in connection with such tours, this shall in all cases be subject to these terms and conditions. Tours operate subject to minimum numbers of participants. If any tour does not operate, a refund of any money paid in advance may be made, but otherwise no compensation shall be payable.2.7 Where flights are taken in conjunction with a Holiday by a Passenger but are booked / purchased independently of a FOCL Holiday, then they are not part of the Contract and FOCL has no liability whatsoever in respect of such booked flights. 2.8 Holidays are planned far in advance and the Contract is for the Holiday Booked subject to alterations that may be made as a result of events, changes of circumstances or other factors that have occurred or arisen since the Holiday was planned. This is dealt with further below under paragraph 6 ("Alteration and Cancellation by FOCL").2.9 The person making the Booking warrants that they have authority to contract and accept these terms and conditions on behalf of all those in respect of whom the Contract is made. FOCL, its employees, servants (including medical staff), agents and subcontractors, the owner and operator of the vessel and any other party involved in the supply of services in connection with this Contract shall all have the benefit of all rights, exemptions and limitations in these terms and conditions. In no circumstances will the total liability of all such parties exceed that of FOCL.2.10 It is the sole responsibility of the Passenger to ensure that they check in on time for the Booked Holiday and allow plenty of time for doing so. It is the sole responsibility of the Passenger to ensure that they check in on time for any flights to / from the vessel including any interconnecting flights. Passengers are solely responsible for checking with regard to any flight delays or cancellations. Deposit, alterations and final payment3.1 A deposit of the Price of the Holiday must be paid to FOCL at the time the Booking is made. Other payments may also be due at the time of Booking. Money paid to a travel agent for a Holiday is held as agent for FOCL, whether or not that travel agent is otherwise acting as your agent or as agent for FOCL. However, payment to or acceptance of any money by a travel agent or other third party, even if an agent of FOCL, does not constitute acceptance of a Booking by FOCL. Prior to acceptance of the Booking and all payments then due, FOCL has no obligation to the Passenger and may return or authorise the return of any payments made with no penalty and without providing a reason.3.2 If your Booking or Contract is altered after acceptance of your deposit as a result of a request by you that has been accepted by FOCL, a minimum service charge of £50.00 per person is payable to FOCL. In the case of a name change, more than 90 days before the Departure Date this will be charged at £50.00 per person per change; within 90 days of the Departure Date the charge is £100 per person, where accepted. In addition to this, for fly-cruises any associated costs imposed by the airline will also be payable by the Passenger. Please note that some airlines and other transport providers may not allow name changes and/or departure detail alterations such as date and time changes. Most airlines and other transport providers treat name and departure detail changes as a cancellation and charges may subsequently apply. A request to transfer the Holiday under your Contract to an alternative Holiday may be accepted by FOCL on one occasion provided it is made more than 90 days before the Departure Date. However, any subsequent request will be treated as a cancellation. If an alteration would result in a reduction of the Price of the Holiday under the Contract of more than 25% then this will be treated as a cancellation (please see paragraph 5 ("Cancellation by You") which sets out further details).3.3 The balance of the Price is due to be paid to FOCL 90 days before the Departure Date for all other Holidays and money must be paid in sufficient time for cleared funds to reach FOCL. For any Holiday's Booked after this date, the full Price is due and must be paid at the time of making the Booking. Special payment conditions may apply to special or discounted Prices. If, for any reason, any payment due after Booking is not received by FOCL by the date due, FOCL has the right to cancel the Contract, retain the deposit paid and charge a cancellation fee of the amount shown in the scale under paragraph 5 ("Cancellation by You") applicable at the date of FOCL's decision to cancel. If, after a Booking is made via an agent, FOCL has reason to believe that the agent may be unable to meet its financial obligations then FOCL has the right to move the Booking / Contract to another agent or take the Booking / Contract on direct.3.4 If a direct Booking with FOCL has been made and accepted, and all payments due at the time of the Booking have been made, the Booking may be transferred to a travel agent provided that FOCL is notified within 21 days of the Booking and does not object.3.5 A 2% surcharge will apply to payments made for any Holiday Booking made by credit card.Prices and other charges4.1 Prices are based on operating costs and market conditions at the date they are published and may be revised upwards or downwards at any time.4.2 Once you have made a Booking, no increase or decrease in the Price will be made except as follows:- 4.2.1 If there is an increase or decrease in the cost of providing any Holiday under a Contract of more than 2% caused by an increase or decrease in: transportation costs, including the cost of fuel; dues, taxes or fees for services at ports and airports; or exchange rates, then a surcharge may be levied and may include an amount to cover agents' commission or a refund may be provided. If this means paying more than 10% on top of the Holiday Price quoted at the time of your Booking, you will be entitled to cancel your Holiday Contract with full refund of all monies paid except for any premium paid for insurance and amendment charges. Such cancellation must be made within 14 days of the issue date printed on the surcharge invoice. If a surcharge is made it will be demanded in writing. Failure to pay a surcharge within 14 days may be treated as cancellation by you of the Contract in which case a cancellation charge of the amount shown under paragraph 5 ("Cancellation by You") applicable on the date of FOCL's decision to cancel will be made. 4.2.2 No surcharges will be charged less than 30 days before the Departure Date but Bookings received within this period may be charged at the published price plus any surcharge arising up to the date of that Booking . 4.2.3 Similarly, if there is a decrease of more than 2% in the costs of providing any Holiday under a Contract (as per paragraph 4.2.1) then any decrease over 2% will be passed on to you. An administration charge will be payable on any refunds made.4.3 Most port and airport charges and taxes are included in the Price of the Holiday. Where these are not included, you will be with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines 2012/2013Your Contract

advised separately. Some overseas charges and taxes may have to be paid locally by you.4.4 Medical services provided on board are outside the scope of the UK National Health Service and a charge is made for these services, for drugs and other medical provisions including repatriation costs in accordance with paragraph 10 below. 4.5 All accounts for services and goods provided on board the ship and any other amounts due which are not included in the Price of the Holiday, including amounts for tours, Shuttle Transport Services, excursions and programmes, must be settled before you leave the vessel. A 2% surcharge will apply to payments made by credit card. An administration charge of £75 will apply if you fail to fully settle your on board account before you leave the ship. In the event that the Passenger fails to settle his/her on board account at or before completion of the Holiday, FOCL reserves the right to cancel any future Bookings the Passenger may have made with FOCL and to set off any sums owed to FOCL by the Passenger against any sums due to the Passenger from FOCL without prejudice to any other remedies FOCL may have under these terms and conditions or otherwise.Cancellation by you 5.1  You may cancel your Contract subject to notice to FOCL in writing and payment to FOCL of a cancellation fee in accordance with the following scale: 91 days or more before the Departure Date - full amount of deposit; 90 to 42 days before the Departure Date - 45% of the Contract Price for the Holiday; 41 to 16 days before the Departure Date - 75% of the Contract Price for the Holiday; 15 to 5 days before the Departure Date - 90% of the Contract Price for the Holiday; and less than 5 days before the Departure Date or failure to travel - 100% of the Contract Price of the Holiday. The effective date of cancellation is the date of receipt of written notice to cancel by FOCL. For the avoidance of doubt, these charges will apply whatever the reason for your cancellation, including illness, incapacity, death or any other intervening event. If you have already started your Holiday but are unable to continue for any reason whatsoever including repatriation, illness, incapacity, death, or any intervening event, FOCL may resell any unused services or accommodation, and no refund will be payable to you. 5.2 Cancellation fees may be insurable. It is the Passenger's responsibility to make any such claim under the terms of his/her insurance policy. Holiday insurance premiums cannot be refunded in the event of cancellation.5.3 Cancellation of land tours purchased as add-ons to Grand and World Voyages (including sectors) will incur 100% charges to the supplier if cancelled within 90 days of your Holiday Departure Date.Alteration and cancellation by FOCL6.1 FOCL reserves the right to cancel any Holiday at any time on the giving of written notice to the Passenger. In any such instance the terms of the ABTA Code of Conduct will apply.6.2 Published Holiday details in FOCL brochures and any notified Holiday details to you at the time of placing your Booking may be subject to alteration after the Contract arises as a result of events, changes in circumstances or other factors that have occurred or arisen since the Holiday was originally planned by FOCL. FOCL's priority is to provide you with the Holiday you Booked under your Contract as far as possible for its duration. Alteration may include omitting, substituting or adding ports of call, restricting the availability of any on board facilities and services available at any time or otherwise changing the itinerary (including routing of the cruise ship or flights and port of embarkation and disembarkation), schedule, cruise ship or other arrangements that form part of the Holiday. Alteration of the Holiday may be made of necessity due to for example an outbreak of an infectious disease or because it appears to FOCL desirable for the safety, comfort or enjoyment of Passengers or the operational efficiency of the Holiday. Where possible and appropriate FOCL will try to ensure that any changes are as limited as practical and do not take place within 14 days of the Departure Date unless due to a Force Majeure event. Such alteration will not amount to a significant alteration of the Holiday under the Contract. 6.3 Where before the Departure Date it becomes impossible to provide your Holiday (even by making changes) due to an event of Force Majeure, then FOCL will give notice of cancellation of the Holiday as soon as practical and you will be offered a refund of all monies paid under the Contract or where possible the choice of a replacement Holiday of equivalent value.6.4 FOCL has the right up to 56 days before the Departure Date to cancel any Holiday under a Contract or any part of it because the minimum number of Passengers needed has not been achieved.6.5 Where after the Departure Date it becomes impossible to provide any part of a Holiday under a Contract due to an event of Force Majeure, FOCL or any other party acting as operator will make suitable alternative arrangements at no extra cost to you. If this is not possible equivalent transport will be provided back to the place of departure or on to the final destination and where the Holiday is curtailed, then for each whole day lost you will be reimbursed an amount equivalent to the daily cost of the cruise part of the Holiday. 6.6 Where delay occurs during the Holiday due to fault on the part of FOCL or any other party acting as operator then alternative arrangements will be made where required to ensure the continuation of the Holiday.6.7 In the event of cancellation, alteration or delay (including prolongation of the Holiday) FOCL will not be responsible for individual circumstances or arrangements, or any losses arising from individual circumstances or arrangements. Conduct, safety and security 7.1 If it appears during your Holiday that you are or are becoming for any reason unfit to travel or likely to endanger or prejudice the health or safety or comfort of yourself or anyone else then a duly authorised representative of FOCL or any other party involved in the supply of services under this Contract may transfer you from one cabin or seat to another, restrain, confine or otherwise deal with you as may be considered necessary or refuse to embark or disembark you at any port or place. In such circumstances, you will not be entitled to any refund, compensation or contribution to or reimbursement of travel costs or expenses of any kind and you shall be liable to pay any fines, losses, compensation or other amount due to any third party. In no circumstances shall FOCL have any liability for prevention of boarding of any form of transport due to a decision made by any party other than FOCL.7.2 FOCL has the right to make, enforce and change (without prior notice) rules and policies for the conduct of Passengers on board relating to matters including, but not limited to, dress, behaviour, alcohol and food. No animals, dangerous articles, or controlled or prohibited substances may be brought on the Holiday. 7.3 For your safety and security, or that of other Passengers, it may be necessary for servants or agents of FOCL to search Passengers, their cabins or their luggage.

If you cause such loss or damage then FOCL may require you immediately or at any time to pay to FOCL an amount sufficient to cover, or on account of, any loss or damage so caused.Liability8.1 The liability of FOCL and any other party that may be involved in the supply of services in connection with this Contract may be limited by international conventions including those relating to carriage by sea and air, in the case of carriage by sea, including the Athens Convention 1974 (as amended), carriage by air, including the Warsaw Convention 1929 (as amended by The Hague Protocol 1955) or the Montreal Convention 1999 or otherwise and hotel stays, including the Paris Convention 1962, and in the case of all such conventions, any applicable Protocols or other amendments as made from time to time.
