When the boat get cancelled due to bad weather or operating problems we will give you another offer (for example to take another boat, or a boat the next day). When there is no option for another boat or when this offer is not suitable for your travel plans we will transfer back 100% of your paid deposit minus transaction costs. It is also possible that the boat from Karimunjawa get cancelled. This may mean you are stuck on Karimunjawa for 1 or more days (we promise there are more worse places to get stuck ;-)). We will always try to get you tickets on the first boat that departures from Karimunjawa. When this is another boat (for example you booked your package with slow boat, but you have to take the fast boat) additional ticket costs will be charged. Any extra costs made in Karimunjawa for example additional night(s) at an accommodation or any costs of missed train and flight tickets you will have to cover yourself. WHAT IF THE TIMES OF THE BOAT GET CHANGED AFTER BOOKING? In some busy periods the boat companies may decide to add an extra boat trip in one day. This can influence the time of departure of the boat. Boat schedules can also be influenced by weather conditions. As soon as we receive information about a change in departure time we will inform you about this. When this has any consequences for booked flight or train tickets you will have to carry the costs to change these bookings or buy new tickets yourself. It is always advised to keep enough time between departure to and from Karimunjawa and any flight or train tickets.

7 WHAT IF YOU HAVE TO CANCEL YOUR BOOKING? When you have to cancel your booking after confirmation (after deposit payment) we will keep 100% of the paid deposit. This deposit is already used to buy your boat tickets, to pay a deposit for your accommodation and to arrange activities. For this reason it is not possible to refund your deposit payment.
