Individuals that are participating in an Excursion with a Child that is not related to the individual are recommended to carry documentation which provides evidence that the individual has permission to travel with the Child. Participants are advised to check with the appropriate government authority.

The EJ Parties are not responsible for any Force Majeure Events. “Force Majeure Events” means any unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of any EJ Party including, but not limited to: (a) acts of God; (b) flood, fire, earthquake, drought, or other potential disasters or catastrophes or explosion or adverse weather conditions; (c) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (d) government order, law, or actions; (e) embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of these Terms of Use; (f) national or regional emergency; (g) strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns, or other industrial disturbances; (h) telecommunication breakdowns, power outages or shortages, lack of warehouse or storage space, inadequate transportation services, or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials; (i) technical problems with transport, machinery or equipment; (j) pandemics, epidemics or outbreaks of illness; (k) ice conditions in oceans and level of water in rivers; and (l) other events beyond the control of any EJ Party. In the event of a cancellation or material alteration to an Excursion as a result of a Force Majeure Event, EJ may in its sole and absolute discretion: (i) offer participant(s) alternative Excursions and/or activities as may be appropriate under the circumstances (“Replacement Activity”); or (ii) if a Replacement Activity is not offered by EJ, EJ will provide a credit to the participant(s) equal to the value of the Excursions less any sums EJ is not able to recover from any independent contractor that was to provide goods or services. In the event a Force Majeure Event cancels or materially alters an Excursion, EJ does not assume responsibility for any other related costs stemming from the cancellation or material alteration including, but not limited to, airfare, insurance, visas, and other travel arrangements. EJ shall not accept any liability for any claims and will not provide refunds, except as may be specifically allowed herein if a Force Majeure Event cancels or materially alters an Excursion.
