WAITLIST:
Potential attendees who desire a cabin type that is currently sold out may submit this form to be added to the waitlist. Waitlist submissions do not guarantee a reservation and are subject to cabin availability. A deposit amount of $100 per person is required to join the waitlist. Should your cabin selection become available, this amount will be credited toward your full booking deposit. Waitlist registrants will be contacted in the event of a cabin opening and full deposit payment will be made at that time in accordance with the payment schedule below.
DO NOT book airline tickets until it has been confirmed in writing that you have been cleared off the waiting list and into a cabin.
The waitlist deposit amount is fully refundable if your desired cabin does not become available to you. However, if you wish to remove yourself from the waitlist, there is a $25.00 per person cancellation fee.
