Any obstacle impeding the user’s arrival on the agreed-upon date which has been caused by the closure of airports, mechanical problems of the airplane, inclement weather, missed flights or connections, delays or changes in flight schedules, or any other situation that arises in connection with the arrival or departure of flights, will be risks and unforeseen circumstances assumed by the user.

CANCELLATION AFTER HAVING PAID IN FULL: If the user decides to cancel his or her reservation, after having paid the full value of the contracted services, the amount paid will be reimbursed less the no-show penalty, which is calculated on the following scale:

 

  • If the reservation is cancelled 30 days or more before the commencement date, AMAZON JUNGLE TRIPS will apply a no-show penalty of 20% of the value paid. The amount reimbursed will therefore be 80% of the value paid.
  • If the reservation is cancelled between 15 and 29 days before the commencement date, AMAZON JUNGLE TRIPS will apply a no-show penalty of 30% of the value paid. The amount reimbursed will therefore be 70% of the value paid.
  • If the reservation is cancelled between 1 and 14 days before the commencement date, AMAZON JUNGLE TRIPS will apply a no-show penalty of 40% of the value paid. The amount reimbursed will therefore be 60% of the value paid.
  • In the case that the reservation is cancelled on the day that services are scheduled to begin, AMAZON JUNGLE TRIPS will apply a no-show penalty of 100% of the value paid.
