Before you pay

The five-minute booking check

  1. Is the route protected on one ticket or a risky self-transfer?
  2. Does the final price include bags, taxes, port fees, and transfers?
  3. Can you cancel if marine weather changes the plan?
  4. Does the hotel map pin match the base described in the guide?
  5. Did you leave a buffer before the flight home?
