Deviation Policies
A deviation is defined as a change to the date, time or routing. Any deviations may be at a different fare from the main group. The group must maintain group minimum requirements. Your group may book deviations from the original group as follows:
- Prior to the group's utilization date an unlimited number of passengers may deviate from the group itinerary on either the outbound or the return at the applicable fare with no deviation fee.
- After the utilization date a maximum of 30% of the group may deviate on the outbound or return for a $25,00 per person domestically and $50,00 per person internationally nonrefundable deviation fee plus the applicable fare difference.
- The percentage of passengers who may deviate is based on the total number of seats held by the group at utilization date.
- Feeders (passengers wishing to travel from a different city connecting to the original group block) are not included in this limitation and may be done at any time prior to ticketing at the applicable fare for the new itinerary.
- A credit card is the only acceptable form of payment for deviations and is required at the time the deviation is booked.
- The percentage of passengers who may deviate is based on the total number of seats held by the group at utilization date.
- Passengers may make changes after ticketing at the applicable fare with the appropriate ticket reissue fee and any difference in fare.
- Once travel has commenced routing changes are not permitted. Changes to the return travel date or time only will be permitted at the applicable fare with the appropriate ticket reissue fee and any difference in fare.
