THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC DIFFERENCE

EXPERTISE

LET THE EXPERTS GUIDE YOU

The signature of our private jet expeditions is the extraordinary team of experts that travels with us (and you). Our anthropologists, ecologists, geographers, and photographers bring to life the places we visit. So you might find yourself exploring ancient ruins in Sri Lanka with filmmaker and photographer Ricky Qi, or learning about elephants and other African animals from wildlife conservationist and CEO of Wildlife Direct Paula Kahumbu.

IMMERSION

National Geographic Expeditions opens doors around the globe. Our relationships with scientists, storytellers, museums, and active research sites give us special access to places and people—including National Geographic Society grantees whom we meet in the field whenever we can.

And when you travel with us, you’ll enjoy a host of specially arranged activities and experiences. For example, as part of our Around the World by Private Jet trip, you can discover the ancient ruins of Easter Island with resident archaeologists, and get a private tour of Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania, where Homo habilis was discovered. On our Oceans and Islands of the World by Private Jet expedition, you can take a guided tour of a spice plantation with an Ayurvedic doctor in Sri Lanka, and join Omani women in crafting activities in Oman. And during our Australia and New Zealand by Private Jet trip , you’ll meet a local Māori host for a privately guided tour of Ohinemutu, an ancient Māori village.

Refunds will be processed within 14 days of receipt of your notice of cancelation. Arriving late or leaving a Trip in progress, for any reason whatsoever, will not result in a refund, and no refunds will be made for any unused portions of a Trip. If you cancel and provide a substitute participant for the Trip, you will receive from us a full refund of money paid toward the price once the substitute participant has paid in full. Please note that the costs for visas, commercial air tickets, insurance, suite upgrades, and pre- or post-Trip independent arrangements may not be refundable.

18. SECURITY AGREEMENT: Your payments are protected by a Surety Bond issued by Surety Company (the “Security Agreement”). Any claims against this Security Agreement must be filed with us or Surety Company within 60 days of the termination of the Trip. Termination means the date of arrival (or in the case of a canceled flight, the intended date of arrival) of the return flight. If there is no return flight in your Trip Itinerary, termination means the date or intended date of departure of the last flight in your Trip Itinerary. After that time, we and Surety Company will be released from liability under the Security Agreement.

19. PRE- AND POST-TRIP EXTENSIONS AND EXTRA ARRANGEMENTS: We recommend that you arrive a day or two prior to the start of your Trip to get acclimated and to allow for unexpected travel delays. Also, you may choose to stay a day or two after to extend your Trip on your own. Both pre- and post-stays are available at additional cost to you. Please contact us for price, details and availability, which are not guaranteed. On some Trips, airport meet & greet and hotel transfer services are available in connection with these additional days. Our special rates for these additional days are only available if booked through us in conjunction with a Trip and cannot be combined with any other offer. Canadian Guests please contact your travel agent.

The policies regarding deposits, payments, and cancelations for all Trips also apply to pre- and post-Trip extensions and hotel nights, and extra arrangements confirmed on any Guest’s behalf, unless otherwise noted. Any revisions made to the booking, such as a change in departure date or choice of Trip, are subject to the cancelation policy.

20. AIR TRAVEL: Neither we, the Tour Operator, Suppliers, nor any of their affiliates, will be liable for any air carrier’s cancelation penalty incurred by the purchase of a nonrefundable ticket to or from the Guest’s Trip home city to or from the Departure City and Return City. Any airline tickets issued are subject to the carrier’s refund policy.

21. ITINERARY MODIFICATIONS/OUR RIGHT TO CANCEL: We will make every reasonable effort to operate the Trips as advertised; however, we and Tour Operator reserve the right to curtail or modify the Trip Itinerary, including but not limited to, curtailment or modification of Activities, hotels, meals, transportation, and Experts, as we deem necessary. Please also note that during certain holidays and peak periods or due to repairs or renovations, some Activities may be disrupted or unavailable. Deviations from planned Trip itineraries or any aspects of the travel may occur. We and Tour Operator further reserve the right to reduce the number of Experts, and to modify other services to accommodate a smaller group, if a minimum number of guests is not reached. None of these modifications or changes shall affect the Trip Price or entitle you to any credit or refund.

We shall also have the right, in our sole and absolute discretion to cancel or modify a reservation in whole or in part, at any time if the reservation includes or was made as the result of a mistake or error of any kind, including, but not limited to, a mistake or error in price or description of the Trip or Activity, or where it appears that a Guest has engaged in fraudulent or misleading activity in making the reservation, or due to prior disputed or suspected fraudulent payment transactions. If a reservation is canceled by us, in cases where we have received a valid and confirmed payment, we will provide a full refund, and shall have no responsibility beyond the refund of monies paid to us related to the cancelation by us.

We reserve the right to cancel any Trip or Activity because of inadequate enrollment that makes the Trip or Activity economically infeasible to operate or because of good-faith concerns with respect to the safety, health, or welfare of the Guests. If we cancel a Trip prior to departure, the Guest will be provided with a full refund of monies paid to us. If a Guest elects to leave a Trip in progress of their own volition, the Guest will not receive any type of refund. If we or the Tour Operator cancels the Trip in progress and the Guest elects not to immediately return to his/her original point of departure for the Trip, or if the Guest elects to leave a Trip in progress of their own volition, the Guest acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the Guest shall be solely responsible for Guest’s travel plans once Guest departs the Trip; (ii) neither we nor the Tour Operator shall have any responsibility for or control over the Guest’s safety or activities once the Guest departs the Trip; and (iii) the Guest will be solely responsible for any and all costs that may arise out of the Guest’s decision to not return to the original point of departure from the Trip in progress. Except as outlined above when we cancel a Trip, you will have full responsibility for any expenses, including any nonrefundable expenses, incurred by you in preparing for a canceled Trip or for any additional arrangements should you embark prior to the scheduled group departure date.

We reserve the right to cancel a Trip for any reason, provided we notify you in writing within 7 days after the cancelation occurs, but no later than 10 days before the scheduled departure date. A full refund will be made within 14 days after such cancelation. We will not cancel a Trip less than 10 days before departure, except for circumstances that make it physically impossible to perform the Trip. If such a circumstance occurs, we will notify you as soon as possible; and if the Trip is canceled, we will refund all monies within 14 days. If we make a pre-departure “Major Change” to a trip, you may cancel within 7 days of notice, or up to departure, whichever is earlier, and receive a full refund within 14 days after your decision to cancel. Only the following constitute “Major Changes:” (i) a change in the departure or return date unless the change results from a flight delay experienced by the Air Carrier, although a date change that we know of more than 2 days before the scheduled flight date or a delay of longer than 48 hours will always be considered a “Major Change;” (ii) a change in the origin or destination city of each flight leg, unless the change affects only the order in which cities named in the itinerary are visited; (iii) a substitution of any hotel or alternate hotel that is not named in the itinerary; or (iv) a price increase of more than 10 percent occurring 10 or more days before departure. If a “Major Change” occurs, we will notify you within 7 days after learning of the change but at least 10 days before the scheduled departure. If we first know of the “Major Change” less than 10 days before departure, we will notify you as soon as possible. If a “Major Change” which you are unwilling to accept occurs after your initial outbound flight has been completed, we will refund, within 14 days after your scheduled return day, that portion of your payment which applies to the service not provided. Your rights and remedies set forth herein, including the procedures for major changes, shall be in addition to any other rights or remedies available under applicable law, provided your receipt of a refund constitutes a waiver of such additional rights and remedies.

22. BAGGAGE: On the Aircraft, you are limited to 90 pounds of checked baggage in two bags (one bag of your choice limited to 50 pounds and one wheeled bag that we will send to you ahead of time for use on the Trip limited to 40 pounds), plus a few smaller carry-on items like a backpack and/or camera. In certain countries, Participants may fly on private light aircraft. Due to weight restrictions on these flights, you will only be allowed one bag, provided to you by us, plus your carry-on luggage (including camera equipment). For international flights, the Air Carrier’s liability is limited to the actual value of the baggage, but not more than 1,288 Special Drawing Rights, approximately $1,777 per Participant, or amounts prescribed by applicable law, whichever is less, unless a higher value is declared at the time of check in and an appropriate excess valuation charge is paid. Baggage, when not handled by us, and personal effects are at all times your sole responsibility.

23. AIRCRAFT: The private jet flights will be performed using the Aircraft operated by the Air Carrier. We and the Air Carrier reserve the right to substitute equivalent aircraft or scheduled service, if necessary. Guests who actually travel on scheduled service will receive only the protections applicable to such scheduled service. Your Trip Itinerary may include flights on smaller aircraft operated by local approved airline carriers. Seating on these aircraft will be economy or economy with limited business seats, based upon the configuration of the aircraft.

24. INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS: The operation of these flights may be subject to additional restrictions of the foreign governments involved, including the granting of landing rights for the flights. If Air Carrier cannot obtain these rights for any particular flight leg of the Trip, that flight leg will be canceled and alternative arrangements may be made at our discretion. Alternatively, you may cancel your reservation and receive a full refund if a flight leg is canceled prior to first departure, or a refund of the unused itinerary if a flight leg is canceled after first departure.

25. COMMERCIAL AIRFARE: We may be able to assist you in reserving commercial flights from your home city to Departure City, and Return City, to your home city, in the class of service that you prefer. Please ask for details.

You will be required to sign and return the Agreement to us as soon as possible. We strongly advise that you not make any commitments that cannot be canceled until your reservation is confirmed. Once we receive your executed Agreement, your deposit and other amounts paid are subject to the cancelation policy unless otherwise stated in your Guest Confirmation.

27. FORCE MAJEURE: Neither we nor our corporate parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, assigns, employees, officers, directors, successors, representatives, agents, or independent suppliers, will be held liable for any loss or damage due to delay, cancelation, or disruption in any manner caused by any of the following causes, to the extent beyond our reasonable control: acts of God, accidents, riots, wars, hostilities, blockages, revolutions, riots, insurrections, terrorist acts, epidemics or pandemics (including but not limited to, COVID-19), quarantines, civil commotions, breakdown of communication facilities, natural catastrophes, governmental acts or omissions, changes in laws or regulations, labor strikes, fire, explosions, or sabotage.

28. NAME CHANGES/TRANSFERABILITY: Reservations and Trip components are non-transferable. We will make a reasonable effort to accommodate changes to Guest names prior to departure provided that at least one member of the originally-booked party travels; however, we reserve the right to pass on to you any third-party costs (such as from airlines or Suppliers (as defined herein)) we incur in so doing.
