If a passenger does not submit to the requirements, it will enable the carrier or the authorities to refuse admittance to that person and no refund will be given. INDICATED PRICES The client acknowledges that the price of the contract could be modified following a fuel surcharge or an increase in the currency exchange rate. In this event, if the modification results in an increase of the price of less than 7%, excluding GST and PST, the client undertakes to pay the difference and, if the modification results in an increase of the price of 7% or more, excluding GST and PST, the client may choose to (1) cancel the contract with full reimbursement or (2) accept the provision of similar services that may be offered by the travel agent. However, no modification of the price can occur less than 30 days prior to departure. Prices in the brochure are based on a minimum of paying passengers which is different for each destination.
