Terms & Conditions

BOOKING TERMS & CONDITIONS

In these booking conditions Creative Cruising Pty Ltd (NZBN 9429047393479) and entities that are related or affiliated with it in the provision of the services it agrees to provide (where the context admits, together with its and their employees and agents) are included in the expressions the “Company”, “Creative Cruising”, “we”, “our” or “us” and a person requesting or obtaining the services offered by Creative Cruising, all other persons (if any) included with that person in the request or booking and that person’s or those persons’ travel agent (if any) are included in the expression “you”, “your” or “passenger”.

1. Creative Cruising arranges bookings, ticketing and other ancillary services of and for travel, accommodation and other leisure activities (“Arrangements”). Creative Cruising is neither a common carrier nor a private carrier and does not provide any of the cruise travel, accommodation or other activities described on its website creativecruising.co.nz (“Travel Products”). Creative Cruising acts as your agent in making the Arrangements with third party suppliers who provide Travel Products as principals (“Suppliers”). Creative Cruising is not the agent of any such Suppliers.

2. Travel Arrangements & Travel Products: Booking of Arrangements by your travel agent (on your behalf) or yourself (if booking directly), is proof that you have read our terms and conditions and that you accept them without reservation as constituting the entire agreement between you and Creative Cruising. This agreement can only be varied by an officer of Creative Cruising in writing. All Travel Products arranged by Creative Cruising are provided by Suppliers believed by Creative Cruising to be reputable and to operate in accordance with the standards set down by their own local authorities. Those Travel Products are provided subject to those Suppliers’ terms, conditions and limitations (some of which may exclude or limit liability in respect of death, injury, delay, loss or damage to passenger’s person and/or effects) and Creative Cruising accepts no responsibility for them and does not make or give any warranty or representation as to their standard. Any legal recourse you may have in respect of those Travel Products is against those Suppliers and not against Creative Cruising. Creative Cruising recommends that all passengers take out adequate travel insurance cover valid for the entire duration of their travel arrangements.

3. Quotation, Changes in Price & Itineraries: Prices are in New Zealand Dollars (except where stated otherwise). A quote is an indicative price only and prices may change up until the time a booking is successfully made (i.e. Peak demand periods, fees and taxes, exchange rate fluctuations and changes in surcharges.). Prices are accurate at the time of booking. Government taxes and charges imposed by Suppliers or third parties, including airline fuel surcharges, taxes or ticketing fees are subject to change. If any increase in such taxes or charges or any currency fluctuation increases the price of your booking, the Company reserves the right to adjust your price by including additional charges, together with any applicable service fee and GST, at any time prior to and including the date of your departure, even if we have received full payment from you. We will notify you of schedule or price changes made by our Suppliers for any reason beyond our control. If the change or changes result in your Arrangements being materially different from those prior to the change or changes being effected (and in respect of which we have already accepted your deposit or balance of payment) you may rearrange them or withdraw and monies already paid will be refunded less any charges levied by Suppliers and fees charged by Creative Cruising (refer to point 12). The Company reserves the right to correct any errors in amounts quoted, calculated or billed in respect of a booking, even if full payment has been made.

4. Passenger Details & Passport Checks: It is mandatory that all names used to make a booking are exactly as those appearing in the passengers’ passports. You must pay Creative Cruising the name correction/change fee for any name or spelling changes in addition to any re-issue fee charged by an airline or Supplier if these were incorrectly supplied at time of booking (refer to point 12).

5. Cabin Guarantee (GTY): On a variety of cruises a reservation may have been confirmed as a GUARANTEE. Also known as a GTY basis, the cruise line is accepting your reservation for that particular grade of accommodation or higher, rather than assigning a specific cabin number. For example, you may book a stateroom of a guaranteed category type (i.e. Ocean view, Balcony, etc.), on your chosen sailing, however the exact grade and cabin number are not allocated at the time of booking and can be allocated by the cruise line at any time up until the check-in port for boarding. With a guarantee cabin, a customer will not be allocated any cabin BELOW this grade. Ensure you check the deck plans to confirm if you are happy to book a cabin with an obstructed view. Please be advised a cabin number will be assigned to you and you cannot request a specific cabin number(s). If, for some reason (i.e. oversold cabins), the supplier assigns a cabin that is below the category booked, it is up to the supplier’s discretion to provide compensation and cannot be guaranteed.

6. Payment: All payments must be in New Zealand Dollars (NZD$). A travel agent is not Creative Cruising’s agent for the purpose of receipt of the deposit, additional deposit or the balance of the price and Creative Cruising accepts no liability for those amounts until received by us. Credit & Debit Card payments: Up to 3% non-commissionable surcharge applies to all payments by credit and debit cards. Surcharge percentage details are outlined on your Invoice Terms & Conditions. This surcharge is calculated at the time of payment. This surcharge is not refundable in any circumstance. In the circumstance where the due date falls over a weekend and or public holiday, it is your responsibility to ensure Creative Cruising has received payment in advance, within Creative Cruising’s business hours. We cannot guarantee we will be able to extend any missed payment due dates set by the supplier in conjunction with Creative Cruising’s booking terms and conditions. For direct bank transfer payments, we require the booking number and lead passengers name in the reference area when making a bank transfer (i.e. CC-TDVI6DE Jones). Failure to enter the necessary information may result in the booking being cancelled if the payment cannot be identified and allocated.

7. Deposit: The Deposit must be paid by the date outlined on your formal system generated invoice. Any additional deposit required by a Supplier must be paid within the timeframe required by the Supplier. You will be notified if any additional deposit (including Supplier advance payment) requirements apply. If the deposit or any Supplier advance payment or additional deposit has not been received by the Company within the time specified by us, the booking is subject to cancellation without notice.

8. Final payment: The balance of the price of your holiday arrangements is payable to the Company by the due date stated on your invoice. If for any reason we have not received payment by the due date, we reserve the right to treat the booking as cancelled and you must pay the appropriate cancellation charges. Surcharge Rate: MasterCard and Visa 1.5% non-commissionable surcharge*, American Express 3% non-commissionable surcharge*

*Surcharge not shown on the invoice, calculated at the time of payment, surcharge is non-refundable.

NOTE: All payments must be made by 2pm NZST (Mon-Fri) on the due date, to avoid auto cancellations by Suppliers. If a payment is made after 2pm NZST on the due date, you must call through to our Reservations team on to advise us of payments made.

9. Exchange Rates: Creative Cruising will re-cost all applicable booked services at the prevailing exchange rate, should there be an exchange adjustment which is out of our control, we will provide you with a new statement of account reflecting any adjustments.

10. Travel Documents: When applicable, guests must complete the Cruise Personaliser registration for the specific Cruise Line supplier they are travelling with in order for the Travel Documents to be released from supplier*. Once Cruise line documentation is available from the Cruise line, Creative Cruising will electronically send the soft copy to you.

Should you require printed documents, for all bookings please contact our documentation team to request. For all printed documentation requests, a NZ$20 fee per cabin will be incurred.

All early printed Travel Document requests must be emailed to documentation@creativecruising.co.nz a minimum of 4 weeks prior to departure. In order to prioritise early documentation requests, please attach a copy of your client’s e-tickets or itinerary which is a requirements by the Cruise line. Alternatively, please call us on .

*A New Zealand residential address MUST be entered into the client’s cruise personaliser. Entering an overseas address may result in the cruise line revoking the commission on the booking. If such a situation arises, the travel agent is liable for paying the difference in fare to Creative Cruising.

11. Late Bookings: Bookings made within 90 days of departure will only be accepted if payment of the price in full is received by the Company at the time of reservation. If a booking is made within 7 days of departure, you must provide a credit card or other means approved by the Company that secures payment of any cancellation fees if the booking is subsequently cancelled. Some bookings made within 7 days of departure may incur a service fee of NZ$50 (inclusive of New Zealand GST) applies.

12. Cancellations, amendments, reissues & other services: If you cancel or terminate your travel arrangements, you must notify Creative Cruising in writing by emailing reservations@creativecruising.co.nz. Cancellations can be confirmed only after Creative Cruising has emailed a Cancellation Confirmation to the travel agent. Cancellations will incur a Creative Cruising fee of NZ$100pp, in addition to the supplier’s cancellation fees. In most cases there will be cancellation fees charged by Suppliers, such as Cruise lines, airlines, hotels and ground operators of all or part of the price paid. This will delay the payment of any refund due. For this reason Creative Cruising strongly recommends that your travel insurance policy includes cover for cancellation charges in the event of cancellation due to illness or other circumstances. Amendments – Any amendments to bookings, including but not limited to, changing the booking dates, supplier, or any passenger related amendments, will incur a fee of NZ$50pp per amendment. NOTE: Where a cruise line releases a promotional fare after you have booked, any transfer of that booking to a promotional fare on the same or new cruise is regarded as a cancellation of the first booking and subject to cancellation fees (mentioned above). Some cruise lines have strict policies regarding rebooking a cruise on promotional rates.

13. Groups: Creative Cruising will accept group bookings on a case by case basis. An upfront, non-refundable deposit of NZ$100 per cabin (in addition to the supplier deposit) is required to secure a group booking. Any amendments to the group booking once it has been secured will also incur a fee of NZ$50pp per amendment.

14. Refunds: No refund is available for cancellations after your travel has commenced or in respect of any travel arrangements, tours, accommodation, meals or any other services not utilised whether by choice, or because of late arrival or early departure, including failure of any transport to operate according to schedule. Refunds can take up to 90 days to process from the supplier. Please note that employees of any Supplier are not authorised by Creative Cruising to make any undertakings in respect of refunds or other matters on behalf of Creative Cruising.

15. What’s Not Included in the Price: Airfares, transfers, pre and post accommodation and any other services not otherwise stated or paid for on your quote/booking invoice. This may also include anything not specifically included in the Arrangements such as excess baggage, airport taxes, passport and visa fees, insurance, laundry, phone calls, beverages, meals not detailed in the itinerary, gratuities in some cases, tips to tour directors, motor coach drivers and local guides and all other items of a personal nature including expenses, fees or costs incurred in case of illness. Items not included on regular menus; expenses for additional sightseeing not specified in the itinerary, premium spirits and premium wine (please refer to complimentary beverage program if applicable), any drinks or meals not detailed in the itinerary; and health, accident, baggage, or travel protection plans.

16. Gratuities (unless otherwise stated): for on-board and onshore personnel (including but not limited to ship staff, crew, cruise/tour manager, local experts, and drivers) are not included in travel arrangements. When gratuities are included they may not cover all services or gratuities, both during the cruise and tour as well as on any pre or post-cruise land extensions. Some cruise lines have mandatory on-board gratuities. If your fare includes gratuities as a prepayment, this will be outlined on your booking confirmation.

17. Insurance: We highly recommend you arrange travel insurance against loss of deposit and cancellation charges, baggage loss, theft, accident, injury and medical expenses. You must arrange your own insurance. Creative Cruising makes no representations or guarantees concerning risks covered or reimbursement available under any insurance and you must satisfy yourself in that regard. You agree not to hold Creative Cruising responsible for any decision made by insurers, and/or by any Suppliers, or requirements of any overseas country or governmental authority or overseas laws and policies. Creative Cruising can provide insurance letters as required, less the cancellation charges imposed by us after a fully paid booking is cancelled.

18. Passports, Visa & Baggage: It is your responsibility to find out about visa entry, health and other requirements of the countries to which your passengers intend to travel and you should make the appropriate disclosures as required.  Ensure you allow time to obtain them prior to your departure. NOTE: Many countries require your passport be valid for at least 6 months beyond your departure from that country. A visa does not guarantee you entry to or permission to remain in a country. Some countries may refuse entry because of your state of health or for other reasons, or may detain, expel or repatriate you. These matters are not the responsibility of Creative Cruising. Creative Cruising accepts no responsibility and is not liable for any expenses, costs liabilities or loss incurred in relation to such matters or for your failure to comply with laws, regulations, orders and/or requirements of countries visited. You agree to not hold Creative Cruising including its servants and agents responsible in that regard. To ensure the safety of all passengers, it may be necessary for Creative Cruising or its servants and agents to disclose particulars of your health or any medical condition to Suppliers of other services forming part of your travel arrangements. You authorise Creative Cruising or its servants and agents to make such disclosure on your behalf and agree that a disclosure by Creative Cruising or its servants and agents shall not amount to a breach of confidence or duty and you will not hold Creative Cruising or its servants and agents liable in respect thereof in tort or in contract or under any anti-discrimination laws. Neither Creative Cruising nor its servants and agents are responsible for any disclosures of a health condition made by Suppliers whose services are part of your Arrangements or for the acts of any governmental instrumentalities of the countries connected therewith.

19. Health & Vaccinations: Are recommended for certain destinations. Please contact your local GP or www.safetravel.govt.nz for more information on these requirements. Please note that some vaccinations may be required weeks in advance of travelling. To ensure the safety of all travellers it may be necessary for Creative Cruising or its servants and travel agents to disclose particulars of your health or any medical condition to Suppliers of other services forming part of your travel arrangements.

20. Description of Products: Descriptions and standards provided for cruise lines, hotels, transfers, activities, airfares and other suppliers are obtained directly from our providers. Any facilities shown as included are subject to change at any time. Creative Cruising does not guarantee the standard, class, type for any purpose or service.

21. Room Bedding Guide: Prices are based on existing bedding in the room which is provided purely as a guide only. Requests for particular arrangements must be made at the time of booking. E.g. twin (separate beds) or a double bed. Requested arrangements cannot be guaranteed, as hotels and cruise cabins may have limited availability of bedding types. Additional rollaway beds for triple share hotel room stays may be arranged at time of check-in and charges are payable direct to the hotel.

22. Hotel Check-In: To guarantee charges for incidental items, Suppliers usually require validation of a current credit card upon check-in.

23. Accommodation & Other Services: As standards of accommodation, facilities and services within your travel arrangements are based on various factors, Creative Cruising makes no specific representation with respect to fit for purpose of any that are available or provided. Reference to facilities in hotels such as gyms, spas or saunas does not imply their use is free.

24. Variations: If unforeseen circumstances beyond our control require us to make necessary changes to your Arrangements, we reserve the right to cancel or reschedule departures and itineraries. Where it is necessary to change a hotel Creative Cruising reserves the right to substitute accommodation of at least a similar standard.

25. Frequent Flyer Points: Airfares may or may not attract Frequent Flyer points. This decision rests with the airline and is not the responsibility of the Company. The passenger or booking agent must check with the airline and provide the necessary information as required.

26. Law and Jurisdiction: The agreement between Creative Cruising and the passenger in respect of the services to be provided by the Company to the passenger and which is constituted by the terms and conditions contained on this website (and no other matters) is governed by the laws of New Zealand. The Company and the passenger submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of New Zealand and Courts of appeal therefrom.

27. Complaints: We endeavour to ensure that the travel arrangements we have made for you are implemented as arranged. If a problem occurs, the most practical way to deal with it is to attempt resolution locally with the Supplier. If you fail to follow this course, any claim for compensation may be reduced or denied. If you have any unresolved complaint, details should be lodged in writing (with supporting documentation, including efforts made with the Supplier to resolve it) with your travel agent within 30 days of return to New Zealand.

The amount of checked baggage you are permitted depends on the class of travel and destination as outlined by the airline carrier. All flights are subject to cancellation and schedule changes by the airline at any time up until date of travel. Subject to the airlines terms and conditions, alternative travel arrangements may be offered. Voluntary cancellation and amendments to ticketed fares will be subject to mandatory airline fees. In addition to airline charges there will be additional fees charged by Creative Cruising. These include a reissue fee of NZ$20 per person per ticket after ticketing and a refund fee of NZ$30 per person per ticket.
