Deposits, Payments and Cancellations
A $250 non-refundable deposit is required upon registration to hold space. A first payment of 50% of total trip cost is due 31 days after registration. Remaining payment is due 31 days after the first payment has been made. If registration for a program occurs at or within 62 days prior to the program start, the entire program cost is due. Program price is based on rates in effect at the time the brochure is printed and is subject to change without notice to reflect fluctuations in exchange rates, tariffs or fuel charges. If a waiting list for a program exists and a cancelled reservation can be filled with a new program participant, the $250 reservation fee will be refunded to the participant in need of cancellation.
Payments are refundable up to 4 months prior to the departure date. We advise all travelers to subscribe to cancellation insurance within 15 days of booking the trip (see the insurance information below). Please contact us if you would like to arrange a special payment plan.
We reserve the right to cancel any trip because of inadequate enrollment that makes the trip economically infeasible to operate or because of good-faith concerns with respect to the safety, health, or welfare of the participants. If a program is canceled prior to departure, Go Learn will provide you with a full refund of monies paid to the University of Utah. If we cancel the trip in progress, you will receive a prorated refund based on the number of days not completed on the expedition. Participants are encouraged to purchase refundable airline tickets in case of trip cancellation. Airfare and any other costs incurred by participant beyond moneys paid to the University of Utah will not be refundable under any circumstance.
Insurance
Go Learn provides all travelers who are U.S. citizens with minimal medical, accident and evacuation coverage under our group-travel insurance policy. Go Learn does not cover trip cancellation, lost baggage, or any other insurance not included in our group policy through CISI. We strongly recommend that you subscribe to baggage and trip-cancellation insurance upon booking your trip.
