ALL DEPOSITS AND PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE – PROTECT YOUR TRAVEL INVESTMENT AND PURCHASE TRAVEL INSURANCE!

Due to the nature of this event, all deposits and payments for Monsters of Rock Cruise are NON-REFUNDABLE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE and therefore, we highly recommend Travel Insurance.

Travel Insurance is NOT included in your reservation. The purchase of insurance is the sole responsibility of each guest sailing and is NOT offered through MORC, LLC or the Monsters of Rock Cruise Reservations team. It is up to each guest to research and decide on a 3rd party vendor of his or her choice for insurance if they choose to do so. MORC, LLC and Monsters of Rock Cruise are not responsible for any losses, medical expenses accrued during travel and/or any and all deposits, due to lack of travel insurance.

A $50 per person late payment fee may be applied for each cabin that does not remit payment by the required payment deadlines. Monsters of Rock Cruise reserves the right to cancel any reservation that has missed one (1) payment date and does not attempt to return the Monsters of Rock Cruise Reservations Team’s three (3) calls and/or emails.

If payment in full has not been received by Tuesday, November 17, 2020, Monsters of Rock Cruise reserves the right to consider a reservation canceled and to charge the applicable cancellation penalties.

Single passengers are responsible for and will only be charged one mandatory fee supplement of $299 for merchant fees, government taxes and fees.

The Payment Terms described above supersede those made by the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Cruise/Cruisetour Ticket Contract. Please note the payment provisions of these Terms and Conditions apply to the Cruise, regardless of any representations made by ROYAL CARIBBEAN or its affiliated entities, whether in the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Cruise/Cruisetour terms or elsewhere. The rights granted to passengers in the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Cruise Ticket Contract relating to the payment or refund of cruise fare and to cancellations by passengers shall not be operative.

MANDATORY FEE SUPPLEMENT
A mandatory fee supplement of $299 per person for merchant fees, government taxes and fees will be charged with the balance due on your cabin. These charges are in addition to the cruise fare and may include, but are not limited to passenger facility charges, security surcharges, international passenger departure or arrival tax, customs user fee, immigration fee, agricultural inspection fee and miscellaneous ticketing fees. These taxes and fees are subject to increase prior to your departure date, in which case you will be invoiced for the balance.

Please note: Mandatory onboard gratuities are included in your base cruise fare as posted on the pricing page of this site. These include, but are not limited to, the maître d’ and his assistants, your waiter and busboys, buffet staff, stateroom attendants and bellboys. These gratuities are mandatory and will not be waived. Casino dealers and spa personnel are not included, since not all guests will utilize those services. A gratuity for bar services and servers will be included on all bar checks, and automatically added to the price of your drinks.

CABIN ASSIGNMENT
Cabins are assigned based upon occupancy and availability at the time of booking by Monsters of Rock Cruise. Special requests will be accommodated if possible, as determined by Monsters of Rock Cruise in its sole discretion. Adding additional guests after your initial reservation may not be permitted depending on cabin availability. Monsters of Rock Cruise reserves the right, but not the obligation, to reassign passengers to another comparable cabin at any time, if required in the sole opinion of Monsters of Rock Cruise. Cabin Assignments are subject to the paragraph headed “Roommates” below.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Not all cabins can accommodate 3 and/or 4 guests. Cabins that hold more than two passengers are limited and we cannot guarantee that additional guests can be added to your cabin at a later date. Triple and quad occupancy cabins will only be assigned to those with more than 2 passengers in the cabin at the time of booking. Guests that plan to add additional guests, may attempt to do so, but are not guaranteed their stateroom will accommodate the new occupancy after the original booking date. This may require a change of cabin location or an upgrade of category, but this is also subject to availability.

In addition, if a guest is purchasing a VIP Cabin, VIP credentials are capacity controlled and therefore guests may not be able to be added to VIP cabins at a later date.

CANCELLATION
Due to the unique nature of our event, we have a very strict “NO REFUND/CANCELLATION” policy. No refunds will be issued, regardless of the reason for cancellation. We HIGHLY recommend that passengers consider purchasing travel insurance.

ALL DEPOSITS/PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE – PROTECT YOUR TRAVEL INVESTMENT AND PURCHASE TRAVEL INSURANCE!

As mentioned above under “Cruise Fare” due to the nature of this event, all deposits on the Monsters of Rock Cruise are NON-REFUNDABLE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE. Therefore, we highly recommend travel insurance.

Travel Insurance is NOT included in your reservation. The purchase of insurance is the sole responsibility of each guest sailing and is NOT offered through MORC, LLC, or the Monsters of Rock Cruise Reservations team. It is up to each guest to research and decide on a 3rd party vendor of his or her choice for insurance, if they choose to do so. MORC, LLC and Monsters of Rock Cruise are not responsible for any losses, medical expenses accrued during travel and/or any and all deposits, due to lack of travel insurance.

Any cancellation and reservation changes must be submitted in writing using our “Reservation Change Request Form.” To request a form, please email us at reservations@monstersofrockcruise.com. No exceptions will be made.

NO-SHOWS
There will be no refunds given for those who do not show up on time, for unused tickets, or to those seeking refunds after the Cruise has commenced.

Please note the cancellation provisions of these Terms and Conditions apply to the Cruise, regardless of any representations made by Royal Caribbean, whether in its passenger contract terms or elsewhere. The rights granted to passengers in the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Cruise Ticket Contract relating to the payment or refund of cruise fare and to cancellations by passengers are superseded by these Terms & Conditions and shall not be applicable.

RESERVATION CHANGES, TRANSFERS & FEES
The Passenger who places a reservation for a cabin onboard is considered the cabin’s “Primary” passenger and is therefore solely responsible for initiating or authorizing all changes to the reservation. Downgrading your cabin to a cabin of lesser value is not allowed.

Primary passenger name changes are considered a CABIN TRANSFER and are subject to a transfer fee of $299 USD. All new passengers are required to complete and return Terms & Conditions before the change will be accepted.

In addition, if a guest is purchasing a VIP Cabin, VIP credentials are capacity controlled and therefore guests may not be able to be added to VIP cabins at a later date.

No transfer or change of a reservation to a NEW passenger shall be made without MORC’s prior written approval, to be given or withheld in MORC’s sole discretion. Subject to the preceding sentence, under no circumstances shall a Passenger or any person or entity acting on Passenger’s behalf (i) sell a reservation, cabin, or berth to any other person or entity for more than the price paid by the Passenger, or (ii) offer the reservation, cabin or berth to any other person(s) or entity(s) as a prize or award in a drawing, contest, lottery, sweepstakes, raffle or similar event of any kind; a transfer in violation of this sentence shall not be permitted, and the Primary passenger shall indemnify and hold harmless MORC from and against any damages, losses and claims suffered by MORC as a result of a violation by Primary passenger, or any other passenger listed on the reservation, of this paragraph. If a Primary or other passenger wishes to transfer the reservation, cabin or berth to a NEW passenger, the Primary passenger shall send a request in writing for approval of this transfer to MORC, along with (i) the reason for the requested transfer and a statement that the transfer will not violate this paragraph, (ii) the NEW passenger name, and (iii) a completed ROYAL CARIBBEAN Passenger Contract for the NEW passenger. If the request is approved by MORC, the NEW passenger must make full deposit payment amount due based on the above due dates. Once that payment has been made, then the applicable amounts paid by the ORIGINAL traveler will be refunded directly to the original traveler. Any NEW passenger sailing with a reservation transferred to him/her in violation of this paragraph may be denied boarding by MORC or, in MORC’s sole discretion, removed by MORC from the Cruise at any port, at such NEW passenger’s sole cost.

Through May 18, 2020
Each cabin will be entitled to one (1) complimentary name change (excluding Primary passenger) or passenger addition, for second, third or fourth passengers, upon request in writing to Monsters of Rock Cruise. Any additional changes prior to May 18, 2020 will be assessed a $50 fee for each occurrence.

May 19, 2020 – August 17, 2020
Any changes made to a reservation between May 19, 2020 – August 17, 2020, including but not limited to, the addition of any guest not currently listed on the reservation are $100 per change.

August 18, 2020 – November 16, 2020
Any changes made to a reservation between August 18, 2020 – November 16, 2020 including but not limited to, the addition of any guest not currently listed on the reservation are $150 per change.

November 17, 2020 – January 8, 2021
Any changes made to a reservation between November 17, 2020 – January 8, 2021 including but not limited to, the addition of any guest not currently listed on the reservation are $250 per change.

January 9, 2021 – February 8, 2021
No changes will be allowed.

All reservation changes (name changes and transfers) must be submitted in writing by the Primary passenger using our “Reservation Change Request Form.” Change forms must be submitted by 5:30 pm Eastern by the above deadline dates. To request a form, please email us at reservations@monstersofrockcruise.com. The date that such written notice of change/cancellation is received will determine the applicable change fee/cancellation fees per the above schedule. Once the change has been approved, all applicable fees will be due within 24 hours. Failure to pay within that 24-hour period will result in a denial of the change request. No exceptions will be made.

RIGHT TO CHANGE ITINERARY
MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN reserve the right, at any time, to change the cruise itinerary, including ports of call, duration of stays at ports, departure times, arrival times, embarkation times, and/or disembarkation times, whenever advisable or necessary, within their sole discretion. In such cases, MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN will NOT be responsible to passengers for any loss or expenses caused by reason of such changes or abandonment. Refunds will NOT be made to passengers who elect not to complete the cruise for any reason or cause whatsoever.

PORTS OF CALL
You assume sole responsibility for your own safety in any port of call. MORC and the other Released Parties do not guarantee your safety at any time and shall have no responsibility or liability for your safety in any port of call. You may find information about the scheduled ports of call through the U.S. Department of State, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other governmental and tourist organizations. MORC and the other Released Parties assume no responsibility for gathering and/or disseminating any such information.

You acknowledge that severe weather conditions, conditions at scheduled ports of call, or other factors beyond the control of Monsters of Rock Cruise, MORC, LLC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN may prohibit the ship from docking at scheduled ports of call, or may advance or delay the time of arrival at or leaving from scheduled ports of call. In such case, MORC, LLC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN will NOT be responsible to passengers for any loss or expenses caused by reason of such inability to dock at one or more scheduled ports of call or change in arrival or departure times.

SHORE EXCURSIONS & CRUISE AMENITIES
You acknowledge that all shore excursions and tours, however conducted; airline flights and ground transportation; and any ship physician, nurse and onboard concessions (including, without limitation to, gift shops, spa, beauty salon, fitness center, golf and art programs, and video/snorkel concession) are operated by independent contractors and not by MORC. MORC neither supervises nor controls their actions, nor makes any representation, whether express or implied, as to their suitability. These services are provided only as a convenience for you, and you are free to use or not use them. You agree that each of the Released Parties assumes no responsibility, does not guarantee performance and in no event shall be liable for any negligent or intentional acts or omissions, loss, damage, injury or delay to you and/or your property in connection with these services. You use them at your own risk.

AGE REQUIREMENTS
Infants must be at least 6 months old at the time of sailing.

Guests under the age of 21 must be traveling with a parent or responsible adult AND must be booked in the same stateroom or a connecting cabin.

Guests under the age of 21, traveling with a guardian 21 years or older, (who is not a parent, grandparent or court-appointed legal guardian), MUST bring an original signed letter from the absent parent/legal guardian authorizing the minor to travel with the appointed guardian. This will expedite processing by the Department of Homeland Security. Please note that a notarized letter to this effect is highly suggested. In addition, the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Parent/Guardian Consent & Release Form must be filled out and presented at the pier during embarkation with the required identification (a copy of both parents/legal guardians driver’s license or other government issued identification).

Please note that adult guests are responsible for the safety and behavior of their minor guests.

Guest ages will be verified at embarkation. Guests not conforming to the requirements set forth herein will be denied boarding and assessed a 100% cancellation penalty. NO exceptions will be made at embarkation.

PASSPORT & LEGAL DOCUMENT REQUIREMENTS
Below are passport guidelines as of January 2020, however they are subject to change. We strongly encourage all guests to visit the Department of Homeland Security website (http://www.dhs.gov) or the Foreign Affairs & International Trade Canada website (http://www.voyage.gc.ca) for the most up-to-date traveler information including passport and visa requirements as well as travel advisories and safety recommendations.

Please Note: Guests who fail to have the required documents as determined by U.S. Customs & Immigration will be denied boarding and such guests shall not be entitled to any refund nor shall Monsters of Rock Cruise, MORC, LLC, and/or Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, have any further liability to such guests.

Although a passport is not required at this time for U.S. citizens taking “closed loop” cruises, we strongly recommend that all guests travel with a passport (valid for at least six months beyond completion of travel). Having a passport will enable guests to fly from the U.S. to a foreign port in the event they miss their scheduled embarkation or to fly back to the U.S. if they need to disembark the ship mid-cruise due to an emergency.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR U.S. GUESTS ONLY

Beginning October 1, 2020, every air traveler 18 years of age and older will need a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license or another acceptable form of ID to fly within the United States. REAL ID compliant cards are generally marked with a star located in the upper portion of the card. If you’re not sure, contact your state driver’s license agency on how to obtain a REAL ID compliant card.

For more information on REAL ID and Air Travel, click HERE.

U.S. CITIZENS

The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) Passport Requirements became effective June 1, 2009, for land and sea borders. While the WHTI requires a valid passport for land and sea travel, a final ruling was issued allowing leniency for “closed loop” cruises, i.e., sailings that both originate and terminate in the same U.S. port.

For both security and immigration purposes, each guest is responsible for bringing all necessary travel documents and identification required for the cruise itinerary. Only a valid passport (please note exception for closed loop sailings) or other WHTI compliant document will be accepted for entry or re-entry into the U.S.

U.S. citizens taking “closed loop” cruises are not required to have a passport. However, any guest who will be traveling without a passport will need proof of citizenship such as one of the following:

U.S. Passport – RECOMMENDED – U.S. Passport must be valid through the dates of travel of the cruise as well as not expired.
U.S. Passport Card – The U.S. Passport Card can be used to enter the United States from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda at land border crossings or sea ports-of-entry and is more convenient and less expensive than a passport book. The passport card cannot be used for international travel by air.
Original or Certified copy of a Government Issued Birth Certificate with a raised seal or in some cases a holographic image. Neither a notarized copy of a birth certificate NOR a Live Hospital Birth Certificate will be accepted by CBP. Please also keep in mind that if you are traveling using a birth certificate and you have had a name change (ie: marriage), you will need to provide proof of that name change (ie: marriage license).
Consular Report of Birth Abroad – Notarized copies are not acceptable. We highly recommend that if at all possible, guests travel with a Passport.
Certificate of Naturalization – Notarized copies are not acceptable. We highly recommend that if at all possible, guests travel with a Passport.
Enhanced Driver’s license (EDL) – There are currently only five (5) U.S. States and four (4) Canadian Provinces producing EDL’s:
U.S.: Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Vermont, and Washington
Canada: British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec

In addition to proof of citizenship, guests will be required to present a valid, government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license. Children are also required to bring proof of citizenship, and if 16 and over, a photo ID is also required.

ONLY US Citizens can sail using a valid Proof of Citizenship along with a government issued photo ID. Canadian and Bermudian citizens are required to have a passport for air, land and sea travel.

Birth certificates from Puerto Rico issued prior to July 1, 2010 are not valid forms of proof of citizenship that is accepted by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Guests from Puerto Rico either need to present a WHTI-compliant document or a government-issued photo identification with a validated birth certificate issued after July 1, 2010.

PLEASE NOTE: We have been informed by the CBP that they will NOT accept the following forms of ID:

Notarized Photo Copy of a Birth Certificate
Notarized Photo Copy of a Passport
Copy of a Passport
Record of Live Birth from a Hospital / Hospital Birth Certificate
World Passport
Social Security Card
Voter Registration Card
Baptismal Certificate

These documents are NOT WHTI compliant documents, therefore, are NOT acceptable proof of citizenship.

For more information or to obtain a passport application, visit www.travel.state.gov.

U.S. ALIEN RESIDENTS & NON-U.S. CITIZENS

U.S. Alien Residents

Alien Registration Card (Green Card)

U.S. Alien Residents require a valid Alien Resident Card and, in some cases, a passport (depending on itinerary). Guest must check with their consulate or appropriate government authority to determine if their nationality requires they also bring a passport along with their Alien Resident Card.

U.S. lawful permanent residents will continue to be able to use their Alien Registration Card issued by the Department of Homeland Security or other valid evidence of permanent residence status to apply for entry to the United States.

Card renewal is an important matter. ARC holders (United States permanent residents) with expired cards may be considered “out of status” and may be denied entry/reentry into the United States. If your ARC was issued over 10 years ago, you should check the expiration date printed on the front of the card. If your card is expired, or it is about to expire, you should renew your card before you sail.

If you are holding an old edition ARC WITHOUT an expiration date, you will not be detained from entering the United States but U.S. Customs and Border Protection highly suggests that you apply for a new card before you sail.

For additional information, visit: http://www.uscis.gov/green-card/after-green-card-granted/renew-green-card

Other Non-U.S. Citizens

All guests of nationalities other than the United States must have a valid passport for six months beyond the period of their intended stay in the United States along with any and all valid visas (if applicable). Please see below additional information regarding the Visa Waiver Program and Six Months Passport Validity Rule excepted countries.

Non-U.S. citizens require a valid machine-readable passport and a valid, unexpired U.S. Multiple Re-entry Visa, if applicable. Guests are advised to check with their consulate, or appropriate government authority to determine the necessary documents.

Non-U.S. citizens that are eligible to apply for admission under the Visa Waiver Pilot Program must still have a valid unexpired passport. U.S. State Department regulations require all guests traveling from visa-waiver countries be in possession of a machine-readable passport that includes a biometric identifier – e.g., embedded digital photograph. Otherwise, guests will be required to obtain a U.S. Multiple Re-entry Visa. Guests without proper identification may be refused boarding or entry into the United States.

On occasion, non-U.S. citizens and U.S. Alien Residents may be asked to surrender their passport and/or Alien Resident Card at time of embarkation. These documents will be returned upon completion of the Immigration inspection at the time of debarkation.

For more information on the Technical Requirements for passports: CLICK HERE.

NON-US CITIZENS

You will need a valid passport and, in some cases, a visa. If you live in the U.S., you will also need the original copy of your Alien Registration Card (ARC or “Green Card”) and any other documentation the countries on your itinerary require due to your alien status.

Citizens from the Visa Waiver Program countries will require a machine-readable passport valid for the duration of their voyage.

A machine-readable passport has a code like this on the bottom of the picture page:

P<<<<<<<<1234567890M1234567890M1234567890<1234567890

Monsters of Rock Cruise and the other Released Parties (as herein defined) assume no responsibility for advising you of immigration requirements. Non-U.S. citizens, including resident aliens, must contact the appropriate consulates, embassies and/or immigration office(s) to inquire about necessary documentation for the Cruise’s ports of call.

Your name, as listed on your travel documents, must exactly match your name as listed on your Cruise documents.

Citizens traveling under the Visa Waiver Program:

All eligible international travelers who wish to travel to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program must apply for authorization.

For additional details about ESTA and/or the Visa Waiver Program please visit:

http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/visit/vis…

For more information, to see if your country qualifies for the Visa Waiver program, and to apply for a travel authorization, see ESTA.

All guests must present the required documentation at embarkation. Guests without the required documentation will be denied boarding and no refund will be issued. Please understand that Royal Caribbean Cruise Line will strictly enforce this requirement to be in compliance with this important U.S. Government mandate.

Family Legal Documents: Adults who are not the parent or Legal Guardian of any minor child traveling with them are required to present the child’s valid passport and visa (if required) or the child’s birth certificate (original or certified copy) and an original notarized letter signed by at least one of the child’s parents. The notarized letter from the child’s parent must authorize the traveling adult to take the child on the specific cruise and must authorize the traveling adult to supervise the child and permit any medical treatment that must be administered to the child. If a non-parent adult is a Legal Guardian, the adult must present a certified certificate of Guardianship with respect to the child.

Your name, as listed on your travel documents, must exactly match your name as listed on your Cruise documents.

INOCULATION & HEALTH
All guests must ensure that they are medically and physically fit for travel. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) provide guidelines as to which vaccinations are required in each country. In many cases, inoculations are recommended but, in some circumstances, they are required. We recommend that you check with your healthcare professional or a Travel Medicine Specialist certified by the WHO for guidance. Other informational resources can be accessed at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s Traveler’s Health website or toll-free at 1-877-FYI-TRIP, and the World Health Organization website.

PASSENGERS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
By booking the Cruise, you represent and warrant to MORC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN that you, and those traveling with you, are physically fit to travel at the time of embarkation. Neither MORC nor ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall have any liability for damages or losses you suffer because you are not physically fit to travel.

Pregnant women are highly recommended to seek medical advice prior to travel at any stage of their pregnancy. Women who will be up to 23 weeks pregnant by the end of the cruise are required to produce a medical certificate of fitness to travel. ROYAL CARIBBEAN cannot, for health and safety reasons, carry passengers who are 24 weeks or more pregnant at the time of embarkation and shall have no responsibility or liability for damages or losses of any kind suffered by such Passengers during the Cruise. ROYAL CARIBBEAN reserves the right to request a medical certificate at any stage of pregnancy and to refuse passage if ROYAL CARIBBEAN and/or the ship’s Master are not satisfied that the Passenger will be safe during the passage.

Boarding will be denied to any person who will enter her twenty-fourth week of pregnancy by the time of the Cruise or during the cruise and to infants under six months old. You must notify MORC at the time of booking of any disability or other medical or physical condition that may require special assistance during the Cruise. Your failure to do so will release the Released Parties from any liability for loss, damages or other compensation arising from or related in any way to such disability or condition. MORC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN reserve the right to require that any passenger who is not self-sufficient travel with a companion who shall take responsibility for any assistance needed during the Cruise and in case of emergency.

MEDICAL CARE
You assume all risks associated with travel and transportation on the Cruise (another reason it is highly recommended that you purchase travel insurance). When looking into travel insurance, it is important to research and understand what is covered under your policy. While at sea or in port, the availability of medical care may be limited and/or delayed. You acknowledge that all or part of the Cruise may be in areas where medical care and/or evacuation may not be available. You agree to indemnify and reimburse MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN in the event that either party, in its sole discretion, advances to you the cost of emergency medical care, including medical evacuation and/or medical care provided ashore, as well as transportation and/or lodging in connection therewith. Neither MORC nor ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall have any responsibility to advance any such costs.

LUGGAGE
ROYAL CARIBBEAN and MORC assume no responsibility for luggage. Any luggage left at the pier will be forwarded to guest’s address only at the guest’s expense. Claims for luggage loss or damage must be made in writing to debarkation personnel prior to leaving the pier area. All luggage must be stored in the passenger’s cabin. Pets, dangerous or illegal items such as weapons, explosives, combustible substances, non-prescription controlled substances, or illegal drugs may not be brought onboard the ship. Any such items shall be surrendered to security at embarkation and may be disposed of at the sole discretion of Royal Caribbean. All luggage, both hand-carried or checked, is subject to search.

CABINS
You acknowledge that while all rooms within a cabin category are substantially similar, they may differ in minor ways in terms of size and/or layout. At no time is cabin configuration guaranteed.

ROOMMATES
Your selection of a roommate for the Cruise is at your own risk. If you request MORC to select or assign a roommate for you, MORC will do so as an accommodation to you, but you acknowledge that this selection or assignment shall be at your own risk, as (i) MORC does not “vet” potential roommates in any way or investigate the potential compatibility of roommates, and (ii) MORC makes no representations or warranties of any kind to you as to the compatibility, suitability, or background of any roommate assigned to you. MORC and its Released Parties are not responsible nor liable to you in any way for any and all claims or cause of action arising out of or in connection with your selection of a roommate for the Cruise or assignment of a roommate to you by MORC, including, without limitation, any claims arising out of injuries or damages suffered by you to your person or property which may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from such request, selection or assignment. For example, MORC and the Released Parties shall have no responsibility, obligation or liability to you in the event of fights between roommates, sexual or other harassment by your roommate, or other inconsiderate behavior by your roommate. MORC shall have no obligation or responsibility of any kind, or for any reason, to separate and move you or your roommate into other accommodations on board.

VENDING
You may not sell, promote, distribute or offer for sale any merchandise, goods, souvenirs or other products on the Cruise without first obtaining MORC’s written approval. You may not permanently disembark the Cruise ship, or remove any merchandise from it, at any port in the United States, its districts, territories or possessions, other than at the port of final disembarkation (Ft. Lauderdale).

PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEO
MORC and/or its promotional partners will have photographers, videographers and the like on the Cruise to film or photograph passengers, and MORC and/or its promotional partners shall have the exclusive right to use or include photographic, video and other visual portrayals of passengers in any medium of any nature whatsoever, worldwide, in perpetuity, for the purpose of trade, advertising, sales, publicity or otherwise, without compensation to passengers, and all rights, title and interest therein (including all worldwide copyrights therein) shall belong to MORC and shall be MORC’s sole property, free from any claims by passengers or any person deriving any rights or interest from passenger. A photo and/or video crew will be shooting photographs and footage to be used for the promotion of future MORC events. When the video team or camera crew is shooting in any particular location/venue on the ship, your presence in said location/venue acknowledges your irrevocable permission for your likeness to be used in the video or photograph by MORC and/or its promotional partners for their future promotional videos or still pictures, worldwide, in perpetuity, in all media. If you do not wish to be filmed, please notify the video or camera crew and be prepared for them to ask you to exit the location/venue for a short time until taping/shooting is complete.

PHOTO POLICY FOR PASSENGERS
Guests may be permitted to take photos onboard the cruise and during performances with small, non-professional digital cameras and cell phones. Out of respect for our performers and your fellow guests, we ask that you please NOT use flash during shows. Professional quality cameras with detachable lenses and video specific cameras are strictly prohibited. In addition, any and all videotaping or audio recording is prohibited. We appreciate your cooperation!

REFUSAL OF PASSAGE
Transportation on the Cruise may be denied to any person who, in MORC or ROYAL CARIBBEAN’s sole discretion: (1) is or becomes in such a condition as to be unfit to travel; (2) is dangerous or obnoxious to others; or (3) is inadmissible to the country under the laws of any country of debarkation. In addition, MORC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN reserve the right to refuse passage, to disembark or to confine to a stateroom any passenger whose physical or mental condition or behavior they consider, in MORC and/or Royal Caribbean’s sole discretion, to constitute a risk to the person’s own well-being or the well-being of any other person, and such person waives all claims relating to such actions by MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN. MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN have the right to disallow booking or boarding to any passenger, who in the opinion of MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN may impact the cruise, the business or reputation of MORC and/or Royal Caribbean, other passengers, or artists in a negative or disruptive way. MORC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall have full discretion and unilateral rights to make any such decisions. The Released Parties shall have no liability to any such person or any third party for damages or claims arising out of any such decisions described in this paragraph. Any costs resulting from MORC and/or Royal Caribbean’s decision, including, without limitation, costs of lodging and transportation, shall be the responsibility solely of the passenger.

PASSENGER DUTY
Passenger, or if a minor, his or her parent or guardian, shall be liable to, and shall reimburse ROYAL CARIBBEAN, MORC, and the other Released Parties for, any damage to the Released Parties’ property, the Vessel, the Transport or any property of ROYAL CARIBBEAN or MORC, or claims or losses suffered by or made against ROYAL CARIBBEAN and/or MORC, caused directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any willful or negligent act or omission on the part of the Passenger; and Passenger, or if a minor, his or her parent or guardian, shall further indemnify ROYAL CARIBBEAN, MORC, and the other Released Parties and each and all of their agents and servants against all liability which the Released Parties may incur towards any person or company or government for any personal injury, death or damage to property caused directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by any willful or negligent act or omission on the part of Passenger.

If, during the Cruise, Passenger feels that his/her safety is jeopardized by the act of any person, or if Passenger is injured by the act of any person or in any other incident (collectively referred to as an “Incident”), Passenger shall immediately report this Incident to the MORC Hospitality Desk onboard the Cruise. In such instance, Passenger shall cooperate with MORC in any investigation of the Incident that MORC may conduct, in MORC’s discretion. Passenger acknowledges that a failure to report any Incident to MORC during the Cruise will hinder and possibly prevent MORC’s ability to investigate such Incident, and in the event of such failure to timely report, (i) MORC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall have no liability or responsibility to Passenger or others arising out of the Incident, and (ii) Passenger irrevocably waives the right to make any claim and/or to seek damages of any kind against MORC, ROYAL CARIBBEAN and/or the Released Parties arising out of or relating to the Incident.

Passenger has a duty to exercise reasonable care and prudence in Passenger’s conduct during the Cruise. In the event Passenger fails to exercise such care and prudence and suffers injuries as a result, MORC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall have no liability or responsibility to Passenger for such injuries, and Passenger irrevocably waives the right to make any claim and/or to seek damages of any kind against MORC, ROYAL CARIBBEAN, and/or the Released Parties arising out of or relating to such injury.

PASSENGER CONDUCT; RULES
During the Cruise, Passenger shall abide by and conduct him/herself in accordance with all rules, regulations and directions of MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN (the “Rules”), including the Rules set forth in these Terms & Conditions and the Rules of which Passenger is made aware during the Cruise.

Such action may include prohibiting Passenger from attending Cruise performances and events, and/or removal from the Cruise. Passenger hereby irrevocably releases MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN from any injuries, claims or losses suffered by Passenger as a result of the actions of security or other personnel (including physical acts) in the event of Passenger’s violation of these Rules or Terms & Conditions.

Passenger shall not put any person in danger for their safety or well-being, or engage in a fight or other altercation with any person, onboard the Cruise.

In the event of any other violation of the Rules by Passenger, MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall have the right, in their discretion, to remove Passenger from the Cruise at any port (at Passenger’s sole expense) and/or to ban Passenger from attending any future ROYAL CARIBBEAN or MORC cruises (including a cruise by any companies affiliated with ROYAL CARIBBEAN or MORC).

ZERO-TOLERANCE DRUG POLICY
MORC, LLC has a zero-tolerance policy regarding the use, possession, purchase or distribution of illegal controlled substances. Any violation of this policy will result in disembarkation from the vessel as well as the individuals being turned over to the local law enforcement officials for appropriate legal action, in MORC, LLC’s discretion. In such cases MORC, LLC and ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall not be liable for any refund or other compensation or damages.

LIQUOR & BEVERAGE POLICY
Guests are prohibited from bringing any alcoholic beverages, non-alcoholic beverages or any food onboard. Alcoholic beverages will not be sold or served to anyone under the age of 21.

SMOKING
Passenger acknowledges and accepts the RCI Smoking Policy as outlined in the Royal Caribbean Cruise/Cruisetour Ticket Contract, which can be found on Royal Caribbean’s website at: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/onboard-smoking-policy. In addition, all passengers agree to comply with onboard smoking rules as outlined in the Daily Program and/or as directed by ship’s personnel.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; RELEASE
You acknowledge and understand that producing musical performances and appearances on a cruise ship involves building a stage, installing lighting and sound equipment, and setting up other related equipment, including wire and electrical equipment. MORC will use good faith efforts to do this in a safe manner. Nevertheless, you are directed to stay away from and not touch any such materials or equipment, as improper use or interference with such materials or equipment can result in injuries to your person, including, but not limited to, falls. In addition, you are solely responsible to avoid any contact whatsoever, whether purposeful, inadvertent or accidental with any production materials or equipment that may be present in the general vicinity of the staging areas around the ship. As set forth below, MORC, ROYAL CARIBBEAN and the Released Parties shall have no responsibility or liability for any injuries you suffer as a result of your purposeful, inadvertent or accidental contact with such materials or equipment.

By booking the Cruise, you (the passenger) hereby release and hold harmless the Released Parties, from and against any claim or cause of action arising out of or in connection with your travel on and participation in the Cruise, including, but not limited to: (1) injury, illness, death or delay of passengers, or loss, damage or delay of or to passengers’ baggage or other property, which may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from participation in the Cruise, including, without limitation, passenger’s use of or participation in any shore excursion, on board concession or athletic or recreational activity, unless such injury, etc. is caused by the gross negligence or intentional acts of Released Parties; (2) injury, illness, death or delay of passengers which may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from passenger’s venturing into areas containing equipment relating to performances, Cruise events, and/or celebrity appearances (for example only, if passenger is injured as a result of tripping over a lighting cord or sound equipment); (3) if passenger is injured as a result of diminished capacity cause by alcohol or drug intake; (4) your request for or selection of a roommate for the Cruise or the assignment of a roommate to you if no request is made by you; (5) emotional distress, mental suffering or anguish or psychological injury of any kind under any circumstances (except when such damages were caused by the Released Parties’ negligence and resulted from the same passenger’s sustaining actual physical injury, or having been at risk of actual physical injury, or when such damages are held to have been intentionally inflicted by the Released Parties); (6) any change in scheduled Cruise events and/or celebrity appearances; (7) violation of the Rules by you; or (8) injury, illness, or death caused by your exposure to other passengers and/or crew and/or spread of contagions among passengers and/or crew; or (9) if ROYAL CARIBBEAN exercises its contractual rights (see below). You further agree that the Released Parties shall not be held vicariously liable for the intentional or negligent acts of any persons not employed by any of the Released Parties, nor for any intentional or negligent acts of any of the Released Parties’ employees committed while off duty or outside the course and scope of their employment.

Except where prohibited by law or as covered by the Federal Arbitration Act, Title 9, U.S. Code, (“AAA”) you (the passenger) expressly agree that (1) any and all claims, judgments and awards shall be limited to actual out-of-pocket costs incurred, including costs associated with the Cruise, but in no event attorneys’ fees; and (2) you waive the right to claim any damages whatsoever, including, but not limited to, punitive, consequential, direct or indirect damages.

In the event that an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction holds any of the foregoing to be unenforceable, then the Released Parties’ liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. In addition, in such case:

Claims for Personal Injury, Illness or Death: – Subject to these Terms & Conditions, the Released Parties shall not be liable for any claims whatsoever for the personal injury, illness or death of a passenger, unless the passenger has first notified the MORC hospitality desk of such injury or illness during the Cruise if the injury or illness first occurred during the Cruise (so that MORC may begin to gather information about such injury or illness while the Cruise is still going on), and full particulars in writing are given to MORC by passenger within 90 days after the date of the injury, event, illness or death giving rise to the claim. Legal action to recover on any such claim shall not be maintainable unless filed within one (1) year after the date of the injury, event, illness or death. You (the passenger) expressly waive all other potentially applicable state or federal limitations periods.
Claims other than Personal Injury, Illness or Death: – Subject to these Terms & Conditions, the Released Parties shall not be liable for claims unrelated to personal injury, illness or death of a passenger unless the passenger has first notified the MORC hospitality desk of the existence of such claim during the Cruise if such claim was or should have been known to the passenger during the Cruise (so that MORC may begin to gather information about such claim while the Cruise is still going on), and full particulars in writing are given to MORC within 90 days after the passenger is landed from the Cruiser. Legal action to recover on any claim whatsoever other than for personal injury, illness or death shall not be maintainable unless filed within one year after the date the passenger is landed from the Cruise or the Cruise is abandoned. You (the passenger) expressly waive all other potentially applicable state or federal limitations periods.

THE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY OF THE RELEASED PARTIES SET FORTH IN THE PROVISIONS OF THIS CONTRACT SHALL ALSO APPLY TO AND BE FOR THE BENEFIT OF AGENTS, INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS, CONCESSIONAIRES AND SUPPLIERS OF THE RELEASED PARTIES, TOGETHER WITH THE EMPLOYEES AND SERVANTS OF EACH OF THE FOREGOING. WITHOUT LIMITING THE PRECEDING SENTENCE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE RELEASED PARTIES OR ROYAL CARIBBEAN BE LIABLE TO PASSENGER FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

CANCELLATION OR POSTPONEMENT BY MORC AND/OR ROYAL CARIBBEAN
In the event of labor strikes or disputes, lockouts, extreme weather, government restriction, illness of key personnel, public health issues (i.e., viruses, diseases, contagions, pandemics, air quality or other health or environmental issues that might affect the health of passengers and/or crew), medical or lifesaving emergencies, vessel damage or unavailability, riots, or for any other reason whatsoever primarily beyond the control of MORC or ROYAL CARIBBEAN (each of the above is a “Force Majeure Event”), MORC and/or ROYAL CARIBBEAN in their sole discretion, may:

(i) cancel, advance or postpone the Cruise in part or in its entirety;
(ii) cancel, cut short, or extend any stop at a port of call;
(iii) alter the Cruise itinerary;
(iv) reduce the duration of the Cruise;
(v) provide for alternate, land-based accommodations at a port of call; and/or
(vi) substitute another vessel.

Refunds Upon Cancellation Due To Force Majeure Event – In the event of cancellation of the Cruise because of the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, MORC’s sole obligation to you shall be to return your fare/ticket price paid, less a pro-rata amount allocated among all passengers for any non-refundable talent/artist/musician/production fees or any other fees (as solely determined by MORC) or for which MORC is obligated. It is estimated, but not guaranteed, that the non-refundable talent/artist/musician fees will not exceed One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00 USD) per passenger; however, any and all refunds shall be subject to refund/reimbursement to MORC by ROYAL CARIBBEAN of all deposits made by MORC to ROYAL CARIBBEAN, and MORC’s receipt of applicable refundable fees from the artists or any other applicable vendor.
No Refunds For Postponement Due To Force Majeure Event – In the event of a postponement of the Cruise because of the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, there are no refunds of your fare/ticket price paid. Once the postponed Cruise is rescheduled and dates are announced, your reservation will be moved to a comparable room on the rescheduled Cruise or comparable alternative land-based event, at no additional cost to you (excluding any and all transportation costs to and from the rescheduled Cruise or Event). If you notify MORC within 30 days after your being notified of the rescheduled Cruise dates that you are not available to attend the rescheduled Cruise or comparable alternative land-based event, you will receive a credit equal to your fare/ticket price paid toward a future MORC Cruise or comparable alternative land-based event.
Refunds Upon Cancellation Or Postponement For Reasons Other Than A Force Majeure Event – In the event of cancellation or postponement of the Cruise for reasons that are primarily within MORC’s control (in other words, for reasons other than a Force Majeure Event), MORC’s sole obligation to you shall be one of the following, at your option, (i) to return your fare/ticket price paid, less a pro-rata deduction if the Cruise is only partially canceled, and less a pro-rata amount allocated among all passengers for any non-refundable talent/artist/musician/production fees or any other fees (as solely determined by MORC) or for which MORC is obligated, or (ii) to give you a credit equal to your fare/ticket price paid towards a future MORC cruise.

MORC shall not be held responsible for passenger deposits held by ROYAL CARIBBEAN, but not refunded to MORC, upon cancellation as a result of a Force Majeure Event.

Other than as set forth above, ROYAL CARIBBEAN, MORC and the Released Parties shall have no liability of any kind to passengers for any loss, liability, or claims whatsoever in connection with (i) the cancellation or postponement of the Cruise, (ii) change in itinerary or ports of call, (iii) duration of the Cruise, and/or (iv) the vessel deployed for the Cruise.

Please note that the availability of any refund for travel insurance and/or other travel products (airfare, hotel, car rental), even if purchased in conjunction with the Cruise, will be determined in accordance with the applicable cancellation policies of the provider for such insurance or other products or services. MORC and ROYAL CARIBBBEAN are not the providers of travel insurance and/or other such travel products, and have no responsibility for or liability in connection with such products.

MORC recommends that you purchase travel insurance that includes protection against cancellation for any reason.

ARTIST CANCELLATION, ILLNESS, FAILURE TO APPEAR OR PERFORM
MORC has entered into an agreement with each performing artist or band on the Cruise, as applicable, under which the artist or band is to be present on board the Cruise and appear and perform in accordance with terms specified therein. However, neither MORC nor ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall be liable or responsible in any way to Passengers or others for the failure of any artist or musician (including an artist or musician who is a member of a band), to appear on board or to perform under artist’s (or the band of which artist is a member) agreement with MORC. Further, neither MORC nor ROYAL CARIBBEAN shall be liable or responsible for any loss, damage, cost, or expense of any kind (including, but not limited to, actual damages, consequential damages, or travel-related expenses or damages) to any Passenger or any other person or entity (i) in the event that such performance or appearance does not occur because of the failure of any artist or musician to appear on board or to perform pursuant to such artist, band, or musician’s agreement with MORC, (ii) because such appearance or performance by an artist, musician or band is prevented or caused by or results directly or indirectly from any act of God, war, fire, illness, public health issues (i.e., viruses, diseases, contagions, pandemics, air quality or other environmental issues that might affect the health of the artist, musician or band) collision, directions of underwriters, arrest, order or restraint by any government agency or official acting under color of authority, acts of terrorism, labor disturbances or disputes, civil commotion, weather conditions and considerations of the safety of the vessel (for which the Master shall be the sole judge), breakdowns of or damage to the vessel’s hull or machinery, requisition of the vessel by governmental authority, illness or death of artist, illness or death of a family member of artist, or any other cause or circumstance beyond MORC’s reasonable control, or (iii) artist’s appearing on board but being unable or unwilling to fulfill all of artist’s responsibilities required under its agreement (or the agreement of the band of which artist is a member) with MORC. In the event of any failure of contracted artists (including an artist who is a member of a band that has contracted with MORC) to perform during the cruise through no substantial fault of MORC, MORC, in its sole discretion, may (but shall have no obligation to) engage a replacement artist, band, or artists, schedule additional performances by other artists appearing on board, or may change, postpone or terminate all or any part of the Cruise or the entertainment program or change the program or itinerary. In such case, MORC, shall have no liability of any kind to any Passenger for any loss, damage, cost or expense whatsoever suffered or incurred by Passenger by reason of such change. If any contracted artist(s) or musician(s) (including an individual artist or musician who is a member of a band contracted to perform on the Cruise by MORC) does not appear on board to perform during the Cruise, or appears on board but is unable to or does not perform on board through no substantial fault of MORC, Passenger shall have no right to cancel his/her agreement with MORC with respect to the Cruise, to receive any refund of any monies paid to MORC in connection with the Cruise, or to receive any other monies or remedy from MORC, and MORC shall have no liability or responsibility of any kind to Passenger, including but not limited to liability for actual damages, consequential damages, or travel-related expenses or damages.

SHIP-RELATED ISSUES
The cruise ship itself is controlled and operated by ROYAL CARIBBEAN, not MORC. Passenger acknowledges and agrees that MORC shall have no responsibility or liability of any kind to Passenger for any issues, claims or damages of any kind arising because of conditions on the ship itself – such as, but not limited to, mechanical issues on board, ship equipment, facilities provided on board (i.e., swimming pool, bars, furniture, etc.) food and beverages served on the ship, lodging conditions (including beds, room furniture, plumbing, electrical), and/or ship safety issues.

DECISIONS OF ROYAL CARIBBEAN
You will receive ROYAL CARIBBEAN Cruise Ticket Contract Terms and Conditions (the “ROYAL CARIBBEAN PASSENGER CONTRACT”) with your Cruise ticket. The ROYAL CARIBBEAN Cruise Ticket Contract constitutes your agreement with Royal Caribbean. The ROYAL CARIBBEAN Contract provides that ROYAL CARIBBEAN may exercise its rights in a variety of matters, including, without limitation: (i) it has the right to alter the ship’s course, ports of call, itinerary, activity and shore excursions, for any reason, to ensure the comfort and safety of the passengers and crew;(ii) it has the right to make a decision to comply with any order, recommendation or direction given by any government or other person or MORC; and (iii) it has the right to make a decision to deny boarding to, confine to a stateroom or disembark any Cruise passenger. The Released Parties (as defined above) shall not be liable to you or any third party for any claim or cause of action arising, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, out of ROYAL CARIBBEAN exercise of any of its rights as provided in the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Terms. Without limiting the foregoing, the Released Parties shall not be liable to any Cruise passenger for a full or partial refund of any Cruise fare, or for any lodging or transportation expenses, as a result of ROYAL CARIBBEAN exercise of its contractual rights.

RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES; ARBITRATION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION

ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE CRUISE, YOUR USE OF THE CRUISE AND/OR MORC WEBSITE, AND/OR TO PRODUCTS OR SERVICES SOLD, DISTRIBUTED, ISSUED, OR SERVICED BY MORC OR THROUGH MORC, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, CONFIDENTIAL, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT, with the following exception:

In the event that the arbitration agreement in these Terms and Conditions is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against MORC, its affiliated companies, officers, directors, employees, contractors, and/or agents may be commenced only in a federal or state court located within the State of Wyoming, and you and MORC both consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes.

The arbitration agreement in these Terms is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), including its procedural provisions, in all respects. This means that the FAA governs, among other things, the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement and all of its provisions, including, without limitation, the class action waiver discussed below. State arbitration laws do not govern in any respect.

This arbitration agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted and will survive termination of these Terms. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to the extent permitted by law to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) and must follow these Terms as a court would. For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrator can award injunctive relief.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to: MORC, LLC, 201 East 5^th St. Ste. 1079 Sheridan, WY 82801, Attn: President. Arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) pursuant to its rules for commercial arbitration, before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator selected by the parties in accordance with the AAA rules and shall take place in the State of Wyoming. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by AAA’s rules.

We each agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action.

YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.
You agree that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce and will be governed by and construed in accordance with federal law to the fullest extent possible.

LIMITATION OF DAMAGES; CHOICE OF LAW
All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules other than the FAA (whether of the State of Wyoming or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Wyoming. In no event may punitive, consequential, or indirect damages be awarded.

MISCELLANEOUS
ROYAL CARIBBEAN reserves the right to substitute the Cruise vessel. Any consequences arising out of ROYAL CARIBBEAN’s exercise of this right shall be governed by the agreement between ROYAL CARIBBEAN and MORC, and not by the ROYAL CARIBBEAN agreement with you, the passenger. Furthermore, in the event of any conflict between the ROYAL CARIBBEAN Terms and these Terms and Conditions, these Terms and Conditions will prevail. In addition, ROYAL CARIBBEAN and/or MORC may reassign cabins as determined necessary or desirable by the Vessel’s Safety Department or MORC, in their sole discretion.

All trademarks are the exclusive property of their respective owners, and you shall have no rights to use or display any such trademarks, including but not limited to trademarks of MORC and Royal Caribbean, without the express written permission of the trademark owner.

The information contained on this page and in other pages and material relating to the Cruise, including any information regarding celebrity participation and programmed events, is subject to change at any time, in the good faith discretion of MORC. The Released Parties are not responsible for any errors, changes and/or omissions resulting in pricing, inventory or content discrepancies.

Passenger acknowledges and confirms that any travel agent utilized by Passenger in connection with the issuance of this ticket is, for all purposes, Passenger’s agent and the Released Parties shall not be liable for any representation made by said travel agent. Passenger shall at all times remain liable to MORC for the price of passage.

In addition to the restrictions and exemptions from liability provided in these Terms and Conditions, the Released Parties shall have the full benefit of any applicable laws providing for limitation and exoneration from liability, and nothing contained herein is intended to operate to limit or deprive the Released Parties of any such statutory limitation of or exoneration from liability. Without limiting the foregoing, the Released Parties claim benefit of all restrictions, exemptions and limitations of the “Convention Relating to the Carriage of Passengers and Their Luggage by Sea” of 1974 as well as the Protocol to the “Convention Relating to the Carriage of Passengers and Their Luggage by Sea” of 1976 (“Athens Convention”), which limits the liability of the Released Parties for the death of or personal injury to a passenger to no more than the applicable amount of Special Drawing Rights as defined therein, and all other limits on damage or loss to personal property.

These Terms and Conditions and the terms accepted during the cruise reservation process contain the entire agreement between MORC and Passenger and supersedes any other agreements, written or oral, relating to the subject matter herein. Any waiver of any provision of must be made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of MORC. If any portion shall be determined to be invalid, then said portion shall be deemed severed from the Contract in such jurisdiction only and all remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.

** The above Terms & Conditions are subject to change at any time in MORC’s judgment**
