  • Changes are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed.
• Changes out of Agency Control:
  • Worldwide Travels by Stephanie, LLC, The Agency, will not be liable  for any failure or delay in performance of services due to events beyond my control, including but not limited to, natural disasters, severe weather, strikes, civil unrest, war, government regulations, pandemics, or any other cause beyond my reasonable control. This includes changes made by third-party travel providers, such as airlines, cruise lines, and tour operators, that may alter schedules, pricing, or services. In such cases, I will make reasonable efforts to notify clients of any impact on their travel plans, but I am not responsible for any resulting delays, cancellations, or changes.

• Health Requirements: Clients are responsible for ensuring they meet all health and vaccination requirements for their chosen destination(s).
• Travel Insurance: The Agency strongly recommends that all Clients purchase comprehensive travel insurance at the time of booking to cover unforeseen circumstances such as cancellations, medical emergencies, and lost luggage. You, the client, assume all risks associated with not purchasing travel insurance at the time of booking.  A waiver acknowledging the decline of travel insurance will be required.

• Limitation of Liability: The Agency acts solely as an agent for the various travel service providers (e.g., airlines, hotels, tour operators). The Agency shall not be liable for any injury, damage, loss, accident, delay, or irregularity which may be occasioned by reason of any defect in any vehicle, or through the act or default of any company or person engaged in conveying the Client or carrying out the arrangements of the tour.
• Force Majeure: The Agency shall not be liable for any failure to perform its obligations where such failure is due to acts of God, war, terrorism, riot, civil commotion, fire, flood, natural disaster, disease, or any other cause beyond its reasonable control.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Louisiana. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Haughton Louisiana.
