    Carrier deems inappropriate.

    and hereby releases Carrier from any liability whatsoever for loss of or damage to such items when presented to Carrier
    in breach of this warranty. In no event shall Carrier be liable for normal wear or tear of luggage or property, or loss of or
    damage to jewelry, cash, negotiable paper, photographic/electronic, medical or recreational equipment, dental hardware,

  4. PUBLIC HEALTH, COVID-19 POLICIES AND PROCEDURES, KNOWING ACCEPTANCE OF THE RISKS
    a. Recommended Consultation with Personal Physician. Passengers are encouraged to discuss the advisability of travel

    The CDC has identified elderly persons and persons with certain chronic medical conditions as being at increased risk of
    life-threatening complications from being infected with COVID-19. PASSENGER ACKNOWLEDGES, UNDERSTANDS AND
    ACCEPTS THAT WHILE ABOARD THE VESSEL, IN TERMINALS AND BOARDING AREAS, OR DURING ACTIVITIES ASHORE AND/
    OR WHILE TRAVELING TO OR FROM THE VESSEL, THE PASSENGER OR OTHER PASSENGERS MAY BE EXPOSED TO
    COMMUNICABLE ILLNESSES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO COVID-19, INFLUENZA, COLDS AND NOROVIRUS.
    PASSENGER FURTHER UNDERSTANDS AND ACCEPTS THAT THE RISK OF EXPOSURES TO THESE COMMUNICABLE ILLNESSES
    AND OTHERS IS INHERENT IN MOST ACTIVITIES WHERE PEOPLE INTERACT OR SHARE COMMON FACILITIES, IS BEYOND
    CARRIER’S CONTROL, AND CANNOT BE ELIMINATED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. PASSENGER KNOWINGLY AND
    VOLUNTARILY ACCEPTS THESE RISKS AS PART OF THIS TICKET CONTRACT, INCLUDING THE RISK OF SERIOUS ILLNESS OR
    DEATH ARISING FROM SUCH EXPOSURES, AND/OR ALL RELATED DAMAGES, LOSS, COSTS AND EXPENSES OF ANY NATURE

    b. Agreement to Abide by Current COVID-19 Policies and Procedures. Carrier’s COVID-19 Policies and Procedures are
    subject to guidance and directives of established health authorities in the U.S. and other destinations where the Vessel
    visits, including the CDC and other international, national, and local health agencies when the Vessel is within those
    agencies’ jurisdiction. Passenger acknowledges that these directives may change from time to time and that Carrier’s
    COVID-19 Policies and Procedures may therefore change. Passenger expressly agrees to comply not only with the COVID19 Policies and Procedures as they are described herein, but also as they are set forth on Carrier’s website at
    www.azamara.com, at all times including pre-embarkation, while onboard, during port calls and shore excursions and/or
    final disembarkation. In case of any conflict between the COVID-19 Policies and Procedures described herein or on
    Carrier’s website, the website governs. Passenger’s agreement to abide by Carrier’s COVID-19 Policies and Procedures
    constitutes an integral part of this Ticket Contract.
    c. COVID-19 Policies and Procedures. Passenger understands that Carrier’s COVID-19 Policies and Procedures may or will
    include (but are not be limited to): (1) providing an accurate, truthful and complete health questionnaire in a form and
    containing any and all health or travel-related questions as required by Carrier in its sole discretion, for each Passenger
    prior to boarding; (2) pre-embarkation and/or periodic testing and temperature checks of each Passenger; (3) modified
    capacity rules for activities (including but not limited to restaurants, gyms, and entertainment events onboard and for
    shore excursions) which may limit or eliminate the ability of Passenger to participate in particular activities; (4) mandatory
    use by each Passenger (except where medically contraindicated) of face coverings in most locations outside of the
    Passenger’s cabin while onboard, during embarkation, disembarkation and shore excursions; (5) mandatory social
    distancing of Passengers at any/all times while on board and during embarkation, disembarkation, and shore excursions;
    (6) additional restrictions during shore excursions depending on local conditions, including but not limited to denial of
    disembarkation at destinations unless participating in only Carrier-approved shore excursions; (7) mandatory hand
    sanitizing by Passenger upon entry or exit of any public areas; (8) confinement of Passengers to cabins, quarantine or
    emergency disembarkation of Passenger if, in Carrier’s sole discretion, such steps are necessary to prevent or slow the
    spread of COVID-19; (9) the required completion by Passenger in a timely manner of any written authorizations or consent
    forms required for Carrier to carry out its COVID-19 Policies and Procedures (including but not limited to medical
    information, medical privacy, or personal data privacy consent forms), and; (10) other policies and procedures deemed by
    Carrier in its sole discretion to be necessary to reduce the risk of spread of COVID-19. Passenger acknowledges that: (i)
    Carrier’s Privacy Policy for Health Protection Measures (“Health Privacy Policy”) is an integral part of Carrier’s COVID-19
    Policies and Procedures; (ii) the Health Privacy Policy has been made available to Passenger; and (iii) Passenger agrees to
    the terms of the Health Privacy Policy.
    d. Mandatory Compliance with COVID-19 Policies and Procedures. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein
    or in Carrier’s Refund Policy, any noncompliance by Passenger or members of Passenger’s travelling party with Carrier’s
    COVID-19 Policies and Procedures or this Ticket Contract shall be grounds for refusal to board, refusal to reboard after
    going ashore, quarantine onboard the Vessel, disembarkation, reporting to governmental or health authorities, or other
    steps deemed necessary in Carrier’s sole discretion under the circumstances to protect the health and well-being of others.
    Under these circumstances, Passenger shall not be entitled to a refund or compensation of any kind. Passenger will be
    responsible for all related costs and fines, including without limitation travel expenses and for proper travel
    documentation for any port, or for departure from or arrival to Passenger’s country of residence. Under no circumstances
    shall Carrier be liable for any damages or expenses whatsoever incurred by any Passenger as a result of such denial of
    boarding, refusal to re-board, quarantine, disembarkation, or other steps taken by Carrier.
    e. Passenger Testing Positive for COVID-19 Pre-Cruise. Passenger agrees that if at any time within 14 days prior to
    embarkation, Passenger tests positive for COVID-19, exhibits signs or symptoms of COVID-19, has had close contact with
    a person confirmed or suspected as having COVID-19, or Carrier otherwise determines in its sole discretion that Passenger
    is unfit to board because of any communicable illness, Carrier will deny boarding to such Passenger. Under these
    circumstances, unless Carrier determines that Passenger has failed to comply with Carrier’s COVID-19 Policies and
    5
    Procedures or this Ticket Contract, any Passenger denied boarding because of a known or suspected infection with COVID19 will be entitled to a refund or future cruise credit equal in value to the Cruise Fare Passenger paid to Carrier. Carrier, in
    its sole discretion, may require Passenger to provide verification satisfactory to Carrier of Passenger’s positive test result
    if the test was administered by a provider other than those retained by Carrier. For further details, refer to Carrier’s refund
    and cancellation policy at www.azamara.com. Under no circumstances shall Carrier have any other liability for any
    compensation or other damages whatsoever, including but not limited to compensation for lodging or travel.
    f. Passenger Testing Positive for COVID-19 During Cruise. Passenger understands and agrees that if, after boarding, and
    even if Passenger has fully complied with all COVID-19 Policies and Procedures, Passenger tests positive for COVID-19 or
    exhibits signs or symptoms of COVID-19, Carrier may disembark, refuse re-boarding after a shore excursion, or quarantine
    Passenger as well as members of Passenger’s travelling party, or take other steps which Carrier determines, in its sole
    discretion, are necessary under the circumstances to protect the health and well-being of others. Under these
    circumstances, any such Passenger with a known or suspected case of infection with COVID-19 who is disembarked,
    refused re-boarding, or quarantined shall be entitled to a prorated refund or future cruise credit for the unused portion
    of the Cruise Fare. For further details, refer to Carrier’s refund and cancellation policy at www.azamara.com. Each such
    Passenger is responsible for all other related costs and fines, including without limitation travel expenses. Under no
    circumstances shall Carrier be liable to any such Passenger for any costs, damages or expenses whatsoever incurred by
    any Passenger.
    If Carrier received payment via credit card and a refund is owed, the refund will be made to that credit card. If Carrier
    received payment from your travel agent and a refund is owed, the refund will be provided back to that travel agent.
  5. MEDICAL CARE AND OTHER PERSONAL SERVICES:
    a. Availability of Medical Care. Due to the nature of travel by sea and the ports visited, the availability of medical care
    onboard the Vessel and in ports of call may be limited or delayed and medical evacuation may not be possible from the
    Vessel while at sea or from every location to which the Vessel sails.
    b. Relationship with Service Providers. To the extent Passengers retain the services of medical personnel or independent
    contractors on or off the Vessel, Passengers do so at their sole risk. Any medical personnel attending to a Passenger on or
    off the Vessel, if arranged by Carrier, are provided solely for the convenience of the Passenger, work directly for the
    Passenger, and shall not be deemed to be acting under the control or supervision of the Carrier, as Carrier is not a medical
    provider. Likewise, any onboard concessions (including but not limited to the gift shops, spas, beauty salon, photography)
    are either operated by or are independent contractors on board the Vessel, on Transport or elsewhere and are provided
    solely for the convenience of Passenger. Even though the Carrier shall be entitled to charge a fee and earn a profit for
    arranging such services, all such persons or entities shall be deemed independent contractors and not acting as agents or
    representatives of Carrier. Carrier assumes no liability whatsoever for any treatment, failure to treat, diagnosis,
    misdiagnosis, actual or alleged malpractice, advice, examination or other services provided by such persons or entities.
    Guest acknowledges that the Vessel’s hair dresser, manicurist, gift shop personnel, spa personnel, wedding planners and
    other providers of merchandise and personal services are employees of independent contractors and that Carrier is not
    responsible for their actions.
    c. Payment for Medical or Personal Care Services. Passenger shall pay for all medical care or other personal services
    requested or required, whether onboard or ashore, including the cost of any emergency medical care or transportation
    incurred by Carrier and any costs associated with the provision of medical services as provided in the CLIA Passenger Bill
    of Rights. If Passenger is unable to pay and the Carrier pays for such expenses, then Passenger shall reimburse Carrier for
    those expenses.
  6. SHORE EXCURSIONS, TOURS, FACILITIES OR OTHER TRANSPORTATION:
    6
    All arrangements made for or by Passenger for transportation (other than on the Vessel) before, during or after the Cruise
    or CruiseTour of any kind whatsoever, as well as air arrangements, shore excursions, tours, hotels, restaurants, attractions
    and other similar activities or services, including all related conveyances, products or facilities, are made solely for
    Passenger’s convenience and are at Passenger’s risk. The providers, owners, and operators of such services, conveyances,
    products and facilities are independent contractors and are not acting as agents or representatives of Carrier. As stated in
    Section 4 or as may be stated on Carrier’s website at www.azamara.com, Carrier’s COVID-19 Policies and Procedures will
    impose certain restrictions with regard to shore excursions relating to participation, location, time, eligible venues and
    persons with whom the Passenger may come into contact, as well as restrictions on the number of Passengers. Passenger
    understands and agrees that Carrier may prohibit Passenger from going ashore in any port of call, and/or limit Passengers
    going ashore to specific activities or excursions authorized by Carrier, for health-related reasons in its sole discretion. Even
    though Carrier may collect a fee for, or otherwise profit from, making such arrangements and offers for sale shore
    excursions, tours, hotels, restaurants, attractions, the Land Tour and other similar activities or services taking place off the
    Vessel for a profit and requires that any such person or entities comply with Carrier’s COVID-19 Policies and Procedures,
    Carrier does not undertake to supervise or control such independent contractors or their employees, nor maintain their
    conveyances or facilities, and makes no representation, whether express or implied, regarding their suitability or safety.
    In no event shall Carrier be liable for any loss, delay, disappointment, damage, injury, death or other harm whatsoever to
    Passenger which occurs on or off the Vessel or the Transport as a result of any acts, omissions or negligence of any
    independent contractors.
  7. CANCELLATION, DEVIATION, OR SUBSTITUTION BY CARRIER:
    a. Carrier may for any reason at any time and without prior notice, cancel, advance, postpone, or deviate from any
    scheduled sailing, port of call, destination, lodging or any activity on or off the Vessel, or substitute another vessel or port
    of call, destination, lodging or activity. Except as provided in Section 7.e below, and except as provided in Section 4.e or
    Section 4.f regarding an actual or suspected COVID-19 infection, and except where a refund is required by law as a result
    of a declaration of a public health emergency or government order cancelling the Cruise or delaying boarding of the Vessel
    by Passengers by 24 hours or more, Carrier shall not be liable for any claim whatsoever by Passenger, including but not
    limited to loss, compensation or refund, by reason of such cancellation, advancement, postponement, substitution, or
    deviation.
    b. In connection with a CruiseTour, Carrier has the same right to cancel, advance, postpone or deviate from any scheduled
    activity, departure or destination, or substitute another railcar, bus, destination, or lodging or other component of the
    CruiseTour. Except as provided in Section 7.e below, and except as provided in Section 4.e or Section 4.f regarding an
    actual or suspected COVID-19 infection, and except where a refund is required by law as a result of a declaration of a
    public health emergency or government order cancelling the Cruise or delaying boarding of the Vessel by Passengers by
    24 hours or more, Carrier shall not be liable for any claim by Passenger whatsoever, including but not limited to loss,
    compensation or refund, by reason of such cancellation, advancement, postponement, substitution, or deviation.
    c. By way of example, and not limitation, Carrier may, without liability (except as provided in Section 7.e below with respect
    to mechanical failures, except as provided in Section 4.e or Section 4.f regarding an actual or suspected COVID19 infection,
    and except where a refund is required by law as a result of a declaration of a public health emergency or government
    order cancelling the Cruise or delaying boarding of the Vessel by Passengers by 24 hours or more), deviate from any
    scheduled sailing and may otherwise land Passenger and her property at any port if Carrier believes that the voyage or
    any Passenger or property may be hindered or adversely affected as a result of hostilities, blockages, prevailing weather
    conditions, labor conflicts, strikes onboard or ashore, breakdown of Vessel, congestion, docking difficulties, medical or
    lifesaving emergencies, declared pandemics, public health emergencies or outbreak of communicable disease,
    quarantines, national or regional emergencies, or any other cause whatsoever.
    7
    d. Carrier shall have the right to comply with any orders, recommendations, or directions whatsoever given by any
    governmental entity or by persons purporting to act with such authority and such compliance shall not be deemed a
    breach of this Agreement entitling the Passenger to assert any claim for liability, compensation or refund except as
    provided in Section 4.e or Section 4.f regarding an actual or suspected COVID-19 infection, and except where a refund is
    required by law as a result of a declaration of a public health emergency or government order cancelling the Cruise or
    delaying boarding of the Vessel by Passengers by 24 hours or more.
    e. In the event that a Cruise (or the cruise component of a CruiseTour) is canceled or terminated early due to mechanical
    failures:
    i) Passenger shall have a right to a full refund of the Cruise Fare if the Cruise is canceled in full, or a partial refund
    if the cruise is terminated early;
    ii) Carrier may cover or reimburse Passenger for additional costs (e.g. airline change fees) as deemed appropriate
    by the Carrier.
    iii) If the Passenger has travelled to the Vessel, Passenger shall have a right to transportation (by means selected
    by the Carrier) to the Vessel’s scheduled port of disembarkation or the Passenger’s home city; and
    iv) Passenger shall have a right to lodging (selected by the Cruise Line) if disembarkation and an overnight stay in
    an unscheduled port are required due to the Cruise or cruise component of a CruiseTour being cancelled or
    terminated early because of such mechanical failures.
  8. CANCELLATION OR EARLY DISEMBARKATION BY PASSENGER:
    The provisions of this Section 8 apply unless a different refund policy is required by law as a result of a declaration of a
    public health emergency or government order cancelling the Cruise or delaying boarding the Vessel by Passengers by 24
