DETAIL OF SILVERSEA INCLUDED PROGRAMMES AND PROMOTIONS

A. Silversea’s “Included Air Programme”

Programme included only within Silversea “Door-to-Door All-Inclusive fares”.

Included Economy Class and specially priced Business Class roundtrip airfares are available to guests opting to book the Silversea Air Programme. Such airfares are capacity controlled, limited to select gateways, air carriers and routings of Silversea’s choosing. Airfares may also vary depending on the departure/arrival gateway. Guests should book early to secure the best airfare and flight schedule. Economy class will be substituted when necessary. Silversea may choose to withdraw or modify Air Programme’s airfares at any time without advance notice. In the event neither Business Class nor Economy Class air is available (determined at Silversea’s sole discretion) or for guests not utilizing the promotional air offer, a non-use Air credit may be applied.

Silversea’s Air Programme package is referred to as the “Air / Sea Package” and includes roundtrip Economy Class air and transfers between airport / pier on days of embark / debark. In case the package includes also pre and/or post cruise Simply Hotel, transfers between airport / hotel and hotel / pier are also included. In case the package does not include any Simply Hotel benefit, guests opting to add it will receive a transfer between the Simply Hotel and pier, while transfer between airport and Simply Hotel is not included, but available for purchase through Silversea’s Reservations Department. Note: Due to limited air availability and / or airline schedule changes, guests may be required to purchase a pre- and / or post-cruise hotel stay (or dayroom) plus applicable transfers in conjunction with their confirmed air schedule. Silversea is available to assist with these arrangements. Additional costs are the sole responsibility of the guest. Guests opting to independently purchase hotel arrangements forfeit the applicable transfer(s) included in the Air / Sea Package and will be required to confirm their own transfer arrangements. Silversea is unable to provide air flights to unaccompanied minors, defined as children under the age of 18.

Silversea’s ability to offer air service from specific gateway cities is limited to airline scheduling and the availability of negotiated airfares. Airfares negotiated by Silversea may limit your ability to exchange, endorse or make changes to air tickets. Silversea reserves the right to select the applicable air carrier, routing and layover as required and reserves the right to substitute charter flights for scheduled service and scheduled service for charter flights. Airfares may be revised upwards or downwards at any time prior to flight booking, are limited to certain classes of service as specified by each airline partner contract, are subject to availability, and may not apply during holiday periods. Business and/or First Class upgrades are guaranteed on the intercontinental / transoceanic flights only, and are subject to availability of select carriers. In providing air arrangements, Silversea acts only as an agent on the guest’s behalf and does not operate, control or supervise any airline and will not be held responsible for carriers failing to meet schedules whether or not air schedules / tickets were issued by Silversea. Silversea reserves the right to change inclusive items as needed including private versus group transfer, and any other item that may be designated as part of the Silversea Air Programme package. Final payment is due prior to ticket issuance and release of documents. Silversea reserves the right to modify the Silversea Air Programme procedures and fees at any time without notice. All travel documents (including visa and healthcare requirements) are the guest’s responsibility. In the event guests are denied boarding by air carriers for failure to have proper travel documents Silversea will have any liability and no refunds of any kind will be made by Silversea to these guests. Guests are strongly advised to purchase travel insurance prior to booking.

When Silversea has determined that a dayroom or overnight may be required due to possible conflicts between flight arrival / departure and scheduled embark / debark, Silversea’s Air Package Plus will apply and, for an additional charge, a Silver Shore Simply Hotel will automatically be added to the booking as an optional component. Silversea’s Air Package Plus includes roundtrip Economy Class Air and applicable transfers between airport / hotel and hotel / pier. Guests opting to cancel the Simply Hotel reservation must email their request to Silversea Concierge at eu.gsa@silversea.com. Guests deviating from the pre-determined travel dates and/or original air schedule or cancelling their Simply Hotel reservation may incur an administrative fee as well as deviation charges and hotel fees, if applicable. Guests opting to independently purchase hotel arrangements forfeit the applicable transfer(s) included in the Air Package Plus and will be required to organize their own transfer arrangements.

Note: Guests are at all times responsible for additional costs incurred when purchasing additional hotel nights, early check-in, late check-out, room upgrades, meals, additional ground transportation, etc. The Air / Sea Package or the Air Package Plus shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Air / Sea Package(s)”.

Silversea reserves the right to request full payment of the Air / Sea Package fare at any time prior to cruise departure. Once airline tickets are issued, or within 180 days of scheduled departure, fees apply for cancellation. Requested changes to confirmed air schedules at any time prior to departure will incur fees and charges as the airline supplier may impose and any additional air costs associated with the confirmed changes to travel dates, flight schedules and / or airlines (“Deviation Charges”). Deviation charges will be the responsibility of the guests and relevant fees will be applied to the guest’s booking. Deviation Charges are at all times in addition to administrative fees. In addition, for each confirmed change, Silversea will charge guests a non-refundable administrative fee per person. Deviation Charges are at all times in addition to administrative fees. Guests are required to send their detailed deviation request in writing to Silversea Concierge at eu.gsa@silversea.com. Responses are generated within approximately 72 business hours.

Silversea requires the full passport details including but not limited to: passport number, expiration date, gender and date of birth, nationality, residential address, destination address and guest’s name as it appears on their passport at the time of booking. Name changes are not allowed after initial confirmation without forfeiting the air schedule, the airline tickets if issued, and any seats if pre-assigned. Payment of additional costs incurred for changing a name on an airline reservation / ticket will be the sole responsibility of the guest, regardless of Air / Sea Package booked. This information is required at the time of booking the Air / Sea Package. Failure to provide this information as required may result in complete cancellation of air schedules. Silversea cannot guarantee the re-booking of the original air schedule if cancelled, and additional airline fees / fees may be assessed. Airline tickets and cruise documents will not be released until required information and additional payment is provided in full to Silversea.

As a courtesy, Silver Sky Concierge will send a generic request to the airline(s) for pre-assigned seats. This is strictly a courtesy and Silversea is not responsible for changes or cancellation of pre-assigned seats prior to flight departure, for any reason. Guests are advised to contact the airline(s) directly to confirmand / or change pre-assigned seating. Other requests such as adding frequent flyer numbers and requesting special meals or wheelchair assistance must be requested directly with the airline(s). Guests are, at all times, responsible for paying all service fees imposed by the airline(s).

Airline service charges are, at all times, non-refundable. Some airlines restrict the accumulation and / or use of frequent flyer miles in conjunction with fares used by Silversea. Please note that each guest is fully responsible for any / all baggage fees that may be imposed by the airline(s) upon check-in. Guests are, at all times, responsible for airline baggage fees. For travel to / from and within the United States, please visit https://bags.amadeus.com/ or the individual air carriers’ website for a complete listing of baggage fees.

Guests are required to review their Silversea invoice in detail to ensure accuracy of all items including guest names, confirmed class of service and fare, and any other information that may affect guest’s airline reservation. Discrepancies must be brought to Silversea’s attention immediately and prior to ticket issuance. Discrepancies brought to Silversea’s attention after ticket issuance may result in full forfeiture of the original airfare paid and guest(s) will be required to pay applicable fees prior to Silversea issuing replacement ticket(s). Silversea issues airline tickets within 90 days of sailing and only after final payment has been received. Due to the fact that airlines change their schedules often, guests are urged to review their flight details upon receiving their electronic ticket receipt, and should also contact the airline(s) directly at least 72 hours in advance of their return date to reconfirm flight schedules and baggage allowance/fees.

All air reservations are made from current air availability we do not use blocked air space unless noted. Every effort is made to book group bookings traveling from/to the same gateway in the same class of service. As our contracts vary between Business and Economy class we cannot always guarantee that the same itinerary will be available at time of booking. Please note, if space becomes unavailable we will secure alternate air arrangements for the additional reservations.

Silversea will make all attempts to confirm the same flights as other guests from the same gateway/class of service. However there are times when an alternate schedule will be confirmed due to carrier availability.

Passports must be valid for six months following disembarkation and necessary visas when boarding. It is the Guest’s responsibility to ensure that they have all necessary documents. All airfares are subject to availability at time of booking and are not guaranteed until purchased and the e-tickets have been issued. Airfares may change without notice prior to e-ticket issuance. Fares may not be available on all flights and/or travel dates while certain fares may only be available for new bookings. SilverSky will make every attempt to secure the best available airfare, suitable for your travel requirements, based on availability at the time of booking. In accordance with TSA regulations, air flights cannot be booked until Silversea is in receipt of full passport details including but not limited to: passport number, expiration date, gender, date of birth, nationality, residential address, destination address and guest’s name as it appears on their passport. Name changes are not allowed after initial confirmation without forfeiting the air schedule, the airline tickets if issued, and any seats if pre-assigned. Payment of additional costs incurred for changing a name on an airline reservation / ticket will be the sole responsibility of the guest, regardless of Air / Sea Package booked. This information is required at the time of booking the Air / Sea Package. Failure to provide this information as required may result in complete cancellation of air schedules. Silversea cannot guarantee there-booking of the original air schedule if cancelled, and additional airline fees / penalties may be assessed. Airline tickets and cruise documents will not be released until required information and additional payment is provided in full to Silversea.

Although most itineraries/tickets allow changes (with fees), as per airline policy - the majority of these itinerary changes require the issuance of a new ticket. All changes are subject to availability, airline rules and regulations, penalties and a difference from the original airfare and our service fees. The airline and contracts they have set forth have the final authority regarding itinerary changes and penalties. Airlines may make changes to a scheduled flight itinerary that is beyond Silversea's control. In these cases, if the airline notifies us with a viable option with a 15 min variance before or after the original flight times will be sent via email. If the airline does not provide us with a viable option, your reservation will be reviewed with your Travel consultant. With the intent to accommodate all travel arrangements made directly with Silversea. SilverSky will notify your travel consultant of any schedule changes and cancellations. However, it is guest responsibility to update their contact information with booked airlines to ensure on the day of travel or emergency situations the airlines can provide notification in a timely manner.

Note for World Cruise guests: For a limited time, guests purchasing the full World Cruise (all segments) and adding the optional Silversea Air Programme to their booking will receive Business Class Air ("Included Air Programme").

Such additional costs will be added to the guests’ onboard account prior to disembarking.

All guests are required to report in writing to Silversea at the time their reservation is made:

Without the required documents, a guest may be denied boarding and accommodation by Silversea, or the guest may be disembarked during the voyage and Silversea will not make a refund or be otherwise liable to any guest for such denial of boarding or disembarkation. In the event that Silversea, as a courtesy, provides information or advices to necessary travel documents, visas and medical inoculations, guests are still obligated to verify such information with the appropriate government authorities and Silversea does not warrant or guarantee the accuracy of such information. Some countries require passports to be valid six months following your return date. Please check with the appropriate consulate for specific requirements.
