Failure to meet these requirements may result in your inability to participate, with no refund provided.

- Local Taxes and Fees: Additional fees, such as city or tourist taxes, are generally not included in the trip price and must be paid directly to the hotel. These fees, if they exist, typically range from $2 to $4 per person, per day, depending on the destination.
- Insurance Recommendation: We strongly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance that includes coverage for trip cancellations, medical emergencies, and other potential risks. If insurance is mandatory for the trip, proof of insurance must be provided by the member prior to departure.
- Disability Accommodations: The Club cannot guarantee ADA-compliant accommodations on international trips. You are solely responsible for evaluating your ability to participate based on the physical demands of each activity.
- Supplier Contact: Direct contact with the club's suppliers or vendors is strictly forbidden without written authorization from the club. Unauthorized attempts to join the trip or solicit participation, or have others join the trip without a club reservation will result in your removal from the trip without a refund.
- Behavioral Conduct: The World Tour reserves the right to terminate your participation in the trip if, in its sole discretion, your behavior is deemed to be disruptive, offensive, illegal, or harmful to other participants, staff, or property. In such cases, no refund will be provided, and the club reserves the right to pursue claims for damages, including legal fees, resulting from your behavior.
- Charges and Credits: All incidentals, upgrades, or ancillary services are your personal responsibility. You may not charge any expense to, or receive any credit from, any "The World Tour - Travel Adventure Club" account, affiliate, vendor and/or agent. The Club will not reimburse you for any credits. All upgrades or changes must be requested through, and processed by the Club or an authorized Club representative, and must be approved in writing before purchase. Failure to obtain advance approval may result in cancellation of the upgrade or the entire reservation with no refund.
- Airline Group Reservations: All airline tickets issued through the Club are strictly non-cancellable, non-changeable, and non-refundable. Seat assignments are controlled entirely by the airline; although the Club requests the airline group agents to seat couples, families, and friends together, specific seats cannot be guaranteed or pre-selected.
If you independently purchase any flight segment that duplicates an itinerary already booked through the Club, the airline or agents will automatically cancel one or both tickets. Likewise, if you skip or miss any booked segment without the airline’s approval, the airline will automatically cancel all remaining segments on your (round-trip) itinerary. All changes to group flights must be arranged through the Club. The Club is not liable for any loss, penalty, cancellation, or additional expense arising from airline actions or from any booking, change, or upgrade made without the Club’s prior written approval. - Independent Airline Reservations: If you have approval for, and have arranged your own flights, your itinerary must match the group’s published arrival and departure schedule. Travelers who arrive before the group flights must meet the group at the designated airport meeting point when the group lands; any interim lodging, meals, or local transfers are at your own expense. The Club accepts no liability for costs, missed services, or penalties arising from (i) schedule changes, cancellations, or delays affecting your independent flights, or (ii) any adjustments the Club may need to make to the group itinerary. Private transfers directly to the resort, hotel, vessel, or other accommodations are not permitted. The tour officially begins and ends for independent flyers at the group’s arrival and departure airport.
- Accreditations & Naming Conventions: All hotel, resort, and accommodation ratings (such as "3-star" or "5-star") are based on local accreditation standards, which may vary by region. For example, a 5-star hotel may achieve its rating due to features like 24/7 front desk service and in-room dining, while a 3-star hotel might offer superior comfort, more group-friendly meals, or a better location, such as being slope-side on a ski trip. Similarly, the term "suite" may refer to a larger room(s) with enhanced amenities, rather than a series of connected rooms.
- Licensed Establishments: Guests acknowledge that certain accommodations and venues included in the trip itinerary operate under local licensing regulations governing the sale and service of alcoholic beverages. Accordingly, the consumption of alcohol not purchased on-site is strictly prohibited in any public or common areas (including, but not limited to, dining rooms, lounges, pool areas, and lobbies) unless prior explicit consent is granted by authorized management of the licensed establishment. Non-compliance may constitute a violation of local laws and could result in removal from the premises, termination of your tour, or the imposition of additional penalties as determined by the venue or relevant authorities.
- Misrepresentation: Any form of misrepresentation, including but not limited to falsifying information about yourself, other members of your party, or any details of your reservation, is strictly prohibited. This includes inaccurate or fraudulent claims related to identity, medical conditions, trip qualifications, or other personal information. The club reserves the sole discretion to determine whether misrepresentation has occurred. In the event of any misrepresentation, The World Tour reserves the right to immediately terminate your reservation and all associated services without notice or refund. Furthermore, you may be held liable for any costs or damages incurred as a result of such misrepresentation, including legal fees, additional trip costs, or other related expenses.
- Indemnification: By participating in the trip, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The World Tour, its officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, expenses, and losses (including legal fees) arising out of or in connection with your participation in the trip. This includes, but is not limited to, claims resulting from injuries, negligent and intentional acts, damages to property, or third-party claims arising from your actions or omissions during the trip.
- Force Majeure: The World Tour shall not be liable for any failure or delay in fulfilling its obligations under these terms and conditions if such failure or delay is caused by, or results from, acts of God, war, civil unrest, terrorism, pandemics, government restrictions, extreme weather, natural disasters, strikes, or any other circumstances beyond the club's control. In such cases, the club reserves the right to cancel, reschedule, or modify the trip without liability or obligation to provide refunds. Refunds or credits, if any, will be provided at the sole discretion of The World Tour.
- Limitation of Liability: To the maximum extent permitted by law, The World Tour’s total liability to you for any claims arising out of or relating to your trip shall be limited to the amount you paid for your trip to The World Tour - Travel Adventure Club, LLC. In no event shall The World Tour be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits, even if The World Tour has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

You waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action lawsuit. Arbitration shall be conducted in a location and state of the club’s choosing, and each party shall bear its own costs and legal fees.
