By way of background, there has been an onslaught of global illnesses that have had some level of contagion that has affected travel in recent years. In recent months especially, the prevalence of COVID-19 (commonly referred to as the “coronavirus”) has impacted the travel industry, including flight cancellations, trip cancellations, and more.

This Policy shall apply to any trip canceled by MOOD Travel Club for any reason, either relating to a Global Event or for any other reason.

By booking this trip, you are agreeing to the following:

  • The Company is the sole decision-maker regarding whether or not a trip is proceeding as planned regardless of U.S. travel advisories or Traveler unwillingness to travel for any reason. All trips with the Company should be considered continuing as planned unless otherwise stated by the Company.
  • These provisions apply to COVID-19 or any other communicable disease that may arise or currently exists now or in the future, or for any reason listed above and below, or for any reason, even if unstated, in the sole discretion of MOOD Travel Club.
  • MOOD Travel Club has and reserves the right to cancel or terminate any trip at any time, in its sole discretion and at its sole determination. MOOD Travel Club shall be able to cancel any trip for any reason or sole discretion, including, but not limited to: global pandemics/diseases, natural disasters, border closings/quarantines, acts of God, acts of war/terrorism, civil unrest, or turmoil in the country or reason.
  • If MOOD Travel Club cancels any trip for any reason, MOOD Travel Club will not issue refunds of any payments made for any reason. Travelers will only be entitled to trip credit valid for 365 days from their canceled trip end date. If Traveler elects not to attend a trip for any reason other than MOOD Travel Club canceling the trip, the refund and cancellation provisions as stated in other sections of this Travel Agreement will prevail.
  • If any trip is canceled, MOOD Travel Club will solely provide email notification to Travelers. Travelers are responsible for ensuring that they are checking their email and receiving emails from MOOD Travel Club. MOOD Travel Club is not obligated to give any other form of notice of trip cancellation. We will keep you updated timely, and if there is no notification as to cancellation, youcan proceed as planned.
  • Traveler understands and acknowledges that international travel is an ever-changing situation. MOOD Travel Club will do its best to keep Travelers reasonably informed of any changes that may affect the trip for any of the reasons detailed above.
  • Travelers are required and responsible for obtaining adequate travel insurance to cover the trip. MOOD Travel Club recommends that Travelers acquire “cancel for any reason” insurance to ensure better. MOOD Travel Club Policy on COVID-19 and Other Global Illnesses coverage in the event of a global “pandemic” or other level spread of illness or any other Global Event. MOOD Travel Club will not be responsible for:
  • The cost of any travel insurance that Traveler procures;
  • The cost of any expenditures that Traveler incurs relating to any canceled trip; or
  • Any costs that are denied coverage by travel insurance, either through claims or otherwise.
  • For the avoidance of doubt, by way of example, if Traveler’s travel insurance will not cover a flight for a canceled trip, MOOD Travel Club bears no responsibility for covering or reimbursing Traveler for such expenditure.
  • Please also note that MOOD Travel Club cannot delay payments or hold spots while Travelers wait to learn about travel insurance claims.
  • MOOD Travel Club will do its best to let Travelers know if a trip is canceled at least two (2) months before the trip. However, this time frame cannot be guaranteed and is not always feasible due to the ever-changing nature of such travel advisories and Global Events, especially with respect to global pandemics/diseases.
  • If MOOD Travel Club offers Travelers the option to cancel or change a trip, there will be a very specific and stated timetable or window for such Traveler-determined cancellations. Any Traveler cancellations outside of that stated period will result in the payments made being non-refundable and non-transferable. The option to change the dates of a trip will be at MOOD Travel Club’s sole discretion. If Traveler opts to cancel outside of or beyond MOOD Travel Club canceling a trip, then standard rules regarding refunds and the non-refundable nature of payments apply.
  • For trips that are proceeding and are not canceled, MOOD Travel Club has the right to change the itineraries and lodging at its sole discretion.
  • While MOOD Travel Club realizes that airline pricing fluctuates and can change instantaneously, MOOD Travel Club advises that it may be prudent, with the nature of COVID-19 and other diseases and Global Events, that Travelers may not want to obtain plane tickets extremely early with respect to the trip and may not want to book more than two (2) months prior to a trip, bearing in mind the fact that prices fluctuate. Ultimately, Traveler is responsible for her own airfare, and MOOD Travel Club bears no responsibility for lost airfare, price increases or decreases in airfare, or lack of availability, even if a trip is canceled for reasons outside the aforementioned reasons.

○ Any costs associated with change fees for plane tickets;

○ Any costs associated with quarantine orders, including but not limited to the following:

○ If Traveler is quarantined overseas and unable to return to the country of origin or residence, for any period of time;

■ iii. If Traveler is required to “self-quarantine” or “self-isolate” upon return to her country of origin or residence; or

■ iv. Any costs associated with any such order, whether they be direct or consequential (hotel costs, change fees, lodging, etc.) or incidental (loss in ages/employment, additional costs associated with quarantine, etc.).

  • If MOOD Travel Club elects to cancel a trip for any reason, the following will occur:

○ Travelers will be notified promptly of the intent to cancel the trip.

○ No payments that have been made will be refundable. MOOD Travel Club will issue a credit to be used on a future trip.

○ Any credit used can only be applied to one (1) future MOOD Travel Club trip with a value of at least 75% of the initial trip cost. Trip credit must be used within 365 days of the canceled trip end date. For example: if the canceled trip dates were May 1 – 6, 2021, the credit would be valid from the date of MOOD Travel Club cancellation until May 6, 2021 – May 5, 2022. Trip credits can only be used on MOOD Travel Club trips, themed traditional or cultural. Credits cannot be used for any other company products or any sister brands.

○ The usage of such credit will be applied to a trip with a departure date within 365 days of the canceled trip return date. This means that the trip must be traveled or commenced by May 6, 2022, per the example provided above (E), not that the deposit has been paid for a trip by May 2022.

○ Trip credits will not be extended if the Traveler fails to use the credit or if the Traveler fails to book an available trip during the trip credit period. No additional spots will be added to accommodate Traveler who fail to book an open trip during the next calendar year.

○ The Traveler will still be required to book any subsequent trip as usual by paying the deposit to secure a spot on the trip. The Traveler can then notify MOOD Travel Club of her intent to use the credit for that trip. Any remaining cost overage for the new trip will be split into equal monthly payments. The Traveler can immediately pay the difference in one payment upon notification of the excess amount.

○ Travelers will be allowed to make one transfer and will not be permitted to transfer to a different trip and make additional transfers.

○ Should the amount of the credit be in excess of the new trip price, MOOD Travel Club will issue a refund for the balance amount to the credit card Traveler made the last trip payment with. All overage refunds will take up to 14 business days to process from the time that Traveler notifies MOOD Travel Club that it intends to use credit on a particular trip, and MOOD Travel Club sends a confirmation of the booking and any overage amount.
