How do I change flight reservations?
Because many of our airfares are discounted, particularly for economy/coach class most do not permit itinerary changes. Details for your specific flights and rules for your reservations will be on your itinerary.

If your flight reservations permit changes, you must: Contact us before your flight’s originally scheduled departure to change your reservation. Other restrictions may apply; there will be a penalty to process the change in addition to the issuing carrier fees, which will vary by market, travel dates and specific airlines rules.

When can I expect my paper tickets to be delivered?
If your paper tickets are being delivered to a non-PO Box address, you should receive them within 5 business days of the date that you finalized your reservation. If you do not receive them within that time frame, please contact our office. Remember your tickets can only be sent to your credit card billing address.

Why do paper tickets have to be sent to my billing address?
For your security, we will only send your tickets to your billing address. This helps minimize the risk of credit card fraud.

When and how will I receive confirmation of my reservation?
Once you have booked a travel reservation, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address you provided to us. In order to confirm receipt of your confirmation e-mail, please check all of your inboxes, including your “junk mail” inbox, in the event your e-mail system inadvertently routed the e-mail confirmation there.

What about Around the World Tickets?
The maximum stay on our Around the World and Circle the Pacific airline tickets is one year. It's up to you to decide how much or how little time to spend in any one place along the way.

After purchase, changes to the routing of the trip are not permitted, but after departure, it is possible to change the travel dates at any time as long as seats are available for the new travel dates. We recommend that you spend quality time with your itinerary before purchasing a ticket, just in case you are not able to change your reservations at the last minute. Taxes are always additional, depending on which countries you will visit.

The sample prices on our web site are for departures in the low season, which are not the months of June, July, August or December. Customized itineraries are always possible, but pricing will never be as low as on our beaten path itineraries. Tickets are nonrefundable. Cancellation insurance is highly recommended.

We recommend a 30-day advance purchase, but quite obviously, the least expensive itineraries do sell out well in advance, in particular on itineraries with stops in India or Nepal. There is no advance purchase when the first stop is in Europe or East Asia. We do our best for last minute departures, but don't be surprised if our least expensive itineraries are sold out well in advance. To purchase tickets, we need all passenger names as they appear in the passports, the preferred dates of travel on all segments of the itinerary, and a signed credit card authorization form.
