COVID-19 Notice
You acknowledge that traveling during the COVID-19 pandemic is your personal decision, undertaken with full awareness of current travel recommendations and restrictions. We are not liable for any unsafe conditions or health hazards, including pandemics or other illnesses you may encounter.

Most insurance policies exclude coverage for pandemics, especially when travel warnings are issued. We recommend consulting an insurance broker about the appropriateness of a travel insurance policy. We are not liable for your choice not to purchase insurance nor for any claim made by a travel insurer related to COVID-19.
