WA Seller of Travel: UBI 605184611 001 0001

Effective Date: June, 2026

All cancellation requests must be submitted IN WRITING (email or letter) to info@favortraveltours.com. The cancellation date is the date Favor Travel receives your written request. Verbal cancellations are not accepted.

Deposit Structure — Read This First

Your $500 per-person deposit consists of two parts:

✓  FULL $500 REFUND — one case only: if Favor Travel cancels the tour because the required group minimum was not reached (insufficient enrollment), you receive a full refund of your entire deposit including the $200 administrative fee — or you may transfer to another tour date.

Non-Refundable Under All Circumstances

•       $200 administrative fee (part of deposit) — see structure above
•       Air ticket booking service fees ($35 domestic / $50 international)
•       Issued airline tickets — once ticketed, airfare is 100% non-refundable and non-amendable
•       Any third-party booking fees
•       Digital products (e-books, guides, PDFs) once delivered
•       Printed book once opened, marked, or used in any way
•       Unused tour portions after departure — no refunds for any reason
•       No-show on departure day — 100% forfeiture
•       Missed sightseeing due to itinerary changes for security, weather, or road conditions
•       Hotel extensions and instant-confirmation products once confirmed
•       No refunds for subjective dissatisfaction with any aspect of the tour
•       No refunds for consultation services
•       $500 administrative fee booking fee for the event.

Refund Processing & Transaction Fees

All refunds, where applicable under these Terms, are processed via the original payment method where possible. The following fees apply and are the sole responsibility of the traveler:

• Refund by check: a processing fee of $30.00 per check will be deducted from the refund amount
• Wire transfer fees: any wire transfer or international transfer fees charged by either bank are the sole responsibility of the traveler and will be deducted from the refund amount
• Credit card transaction fees: any transaction fees, currency conversion fees, or chargeback processing fees charged by the card issuer or payment processor are the sole responsibility of the traveler
• Currency conversion losses: if payment was made in a currency other than US dollars, any exchange rate difference at time of refund is the sole responsibility of the traveler

Favor Travel is not responsible for any fees charged by the traveler’s bank, card issuer, or payment processor in connection with any payment or refund transaction.

Cancellation Penalty Schedule

Penalties below are calculated from the total tour cost and apply from the date your written cancellation is received. The $200 administrative fee is forfeited in all cases and is included within the penalty amounts shown.

Refund Timelines (Washington RCW 19.138.040)

IF TRANSPORTATION OR OTHER SERVICES ARE CANCELED BY THE SELLER OF TRAVEL, ALL SUMS PAID TO THE SELLER OF TRAVEL FOR SERVICES NOT PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONTRACT BETWEEN THE SELLER OF TRAVEL AND THE PURCHASER WILL BE REFUNDED WITHIN THIRTY DAYS OF RECEIVING THE FUNDS FROM THE VENDOR WITH WHOM THE SERVICES WERE ARRANGED, OR IF THE FUNDS WERE NOT SENT TO THE VENDOR, THE FUNDS WILL BE RETURNED WITHIN FOURTEEN DAYS AFTER CANCELLATION BY THE SELLER OF TRAVEL TO THE PURCHASER UNLESS THE PURCHASER REQUESTS THE SELLER OF TRAVEL TO APPLY THE MONEY TO ANOTHER TRAVEL PRODUCT AND/OR DATE.

For traveler-initiated cancellations: refunds of any amounts due (after applicable penalties) are processed within 30 days of receiving refunded funds from vendors, or within 14 days if funds were not yet sent to vendors. Where a vendor issues only travel credit, that credit is the sole available remedy and will be passed to the traveler.

Force Majeure — Important Clarification

★  Force majeure events (war, armed conflict, hurricanes, extreme weather, natural disasters, pandemics, government travel bans, airspace closures) do NOT create an exception to the $200 administrative fee or to vendor-imposed penalties. The $200 administrative fee is forfeited in all force majeure scenarios.

In force majeure situations, Favor Travel will work with you and with suppliers to pursue alternatives, rebooking, or travel credits. Refunds of amounts beyond the administrative fee depend entirely on the refund policies of the individual airlines, hotels, cruise lines, and ground operators involved. Where a supplier offers only travel credit, that credit is the sole available remedy.

Cruises, All-inclusive — Specific Cancellation Policy

Cruise cancellation policies are set by the cruise line and vary by sailing, date, and cabin category. They apply in addition to Favor Travel’s fees. Cruise lines typically impose their own non-refundable deposit windows and 100% penalty periods beginning 90–120 days before sailing. The specific cruise line policy will be provided in writing at time of booking.

Individual Tour Cancellation Terms

The cancellation penalty schedule set out in this Section applies as the default policy for all tours unless otherwise specified. If your specific tour, cruise, package, or booking has different cancellation terms, those terms will be clearly stated in your Tour Documents, booking confirmation, or written contract issued by Favor Travel at time of booking.

In the event of any conflict between the default cancellation schedule in these Terms and the terms stated in your individual Tour Documents or written confirmation, the terms in your Tour Documents and written confirmation take precedence.

Financial Protection

Favor Travel maintains a surety bond as its approved form of financial security under Washington’s Seller of Travel Act (RCW 19.138), registered with the Washington State Department of Licensing (UBI 605184611 001 0001). This bond exists to protect consumer payments in accordance with Washington law.

Travel Insurance — Strongly Recommended

Because the $200 administrative fee and vendor penalties apply even in emergencies and force majeure, travel insurance is the only real protection for your investment.

•       Purchase within 14–21 days of your deposit to qualify for pre-existing condition coverage
•       ‘Cancel for Any Reason’ (CFAR) coverage provides the broadest protection

Favor Travel is not a licensed insurance producer and does not sell, underwrite, or administer insurance. Any insurance purchase is a direct transaction between you and the insurance provider. Review all policy terms, limits, and exclusions before purchasing.
