• Any liability for loss or damage to personal baggage is in accordance<br />
with the Guest Ticket Contract provisions. Guests’ baggage and<br />
property are transported, stored and handled at owners’ risk at all times.<br />
• Expenses of any kind, i<strong>ncl</strong>uding fines, penalties, duties or other charges<br />
incurred by Norwegian and attributable to the Guest’s failure to comply<br />
with regulations of the ship or any governmental authority, shall be paid to<br />
Norwegian by Guest on demand. The Guest shall be liable to Norwegian<br />
and shall reimburse Norwegian for all loss, damage or delay sustained by<br />
Norwegian because of any act or omission of the Guest.<br />
• Norwegian is not responsible or liable for any loss, theft, pilferage,<br />
damage or delay to Guests’ baggage or personal effects. Air,<br />
car, motorcoach, motorlaunch and ground transfer shall be the<br />
responsibility of the provider of the services and in accordance with<br />
applicable limitations.<br />
• As a convenience to Guests, Norwegian may sell tickets for shoreside<br />
tours or arrange other services which are operated by independent<br />
contractors, but Norwegian shall not be responsible in any way<br />
whatsoever for any damage, loss, injury or death arising out of any<br />
service provided ashore or by any airline, motel, hotel, ground carrier<br />
or any other provider of any of the services provided or offered in<br />
addition to the ship’s cruise.<br />
• Norwegian also reserves the right to change or abandon all or any<br />
part of a tour program or other services provided by third parties and<br />
to change the itinerary whenever advisable or necessary. In this case,<br />
Norwegian will not be responsible for any losses or expenses caused<br />
by reason of such changes or abandonment.<br />
• Norwegian’s responsibility does not extend beyond the ship.<br />
Therefore, any arrangements made by or for Guests, either before<br />
boarding the ship or whenever disembarking entirely from the ship,<br />
are at the Guests’ own risk. Guests going ashore on their own are<br />
responsible for reboarding the ship prior to departure from port.<br />
Transfers<br />
Airport to pier (if applicable) transfers and vice versa are available<br />
for purchase for all Guests. Guests who want to purchase transfers<br />
should contact our Reservations Department. All Guests who purchase<br />
transfers will receive a transfer voucher prior to departure. Upon arrival<br />
in the city of embarkation, Guests should proceed to the baggage claim<br />
area to claim their luggage. A Norwegian representative will meet them<br />
in the baggage claim area on domestic flights and outside of customs<br />
on international flights to assist with their transportation to the ship or<br />
hotel (if applicable). For cruise-only Guests booking their own return<br />
flights, we suggest a departure time no less than six hours after the<br />
announced arrival time of the ship.<br />

Air Ticketing<br />
Norwegian’s Air/Sea Program is operated and ticketed by Norwegian.<br />
Airline tickets are issued on fares that are capacity controlled and highly<br />
restrictive, so airline tickets may not be reissued or exchanged for another<br />
carrier or routing. Infants must have tickets on all international flights.<br />
Airline Procedures & Restrictions<br />
The terms of the air transportation will be governed by the air carrier<br />
ticket contract and Norwegian’s Guest Ticket Contract. Norwegian<br />
reserves the right to choose the air carrier, routing and city airport<br />
from each gateway city and to substitute commuter service and/or<br />
charter air service for scheduled air carriers without prior notice. All<br />
terms and conditions governing Norwegian’s Air/Sea Program and the<br />
air transportation arranged by Norwegian will equally apply to such<br />
chartered air service. Flight schedules may not, in some cases, be the<br />
most direct, and connections, layovers and involuntary overnights en<br />
route may be necessary. The cost of such overnight arrangements<br />
(food, lodging, transfers and items of a personal nature) will be the<br />
Guests’ responsibility. Air schedules for some cruise destinations may<br />
require utilizing flights that depart in the evening hours and arrive the<br />
following day. Actual flight schedules, fare basis and applicable rules<br />
cannot be committed until airline tickets are issued. Within 14 days of<br />
sailing, all Air/Sea gateways are on a request basis only. Air/Sea gateway<br />
cities may be withdrawn at any time without prior notice. Norwegian<br />
will not be responsible for any expenses or other consequences<br />
resulting from i<strong>ncl</strong>ement weather, strikes, flight cancellations, changes/<br />
delays in the ship’s schedule or a change/delay in schedule or routing<br />
made by a Guest, travel agent or airline. Additionally, Norwegian is not<br />
responsible for Airline-imposed fees, such as baggage fees and seat<br />
assignment fees. These are the responsibility of the Guest. If, due to<br />
any cause beyond Norwegian’s control, Norwegian is unable to arrange<br />
air travel (i<strong>ncl</strong>uding, for example, because of capacity controls placed<br />
upon us by airlines due to types of fares under which Norwegian books),<br />
or the air travel Norwegian arranges is unavailable or otherwise fails to<br />
materialize, Norwegian’s sole liability will be limited to refunding the air<br />
add-on amount paid to Norwegian.<br />
Air Charges<br />
Air Charges i<strong>ncl</strong>ude any and all fees, charges and taxes related to air<br />
transportation imposed by U.S. and/or foreign governmental or quasigovernmental<br />
authorities, such as passenger and airport facility charges,<br />
air departure taxes, foreign airport taxes, customs/immigration/security<br />
fees, airport service charges and inspection fees. Air Charges are<br />
additional, vary by gateway city and routing and are subject to change.<br />
Air Charges are estimated and billed by gateway city and routing and are<br />
noncommissionable. Actual Air Charges may be higher or lower than<br />
the amount quoted. Refunds will not be made if actual Air Charges are<br />
lower than the amount quoted. If actual Air Charges are higher than the<br />
amount quoted, Norwegian reserves the right to collect the difference.<br />
Certain countries require Guests to pay an airport departure tax that<br />
may not be i<strong>ncl</strong>uded on the Guest’s air ticket. This tax is collected at<br />
the airport and may have to be paid in local currency. This tax is the<br />
responsibility of each individual Guest. Cancellation fees are assessed<br />
for any air changes or deviations.<br />
Seat Assignments & Special Air Service Requests<br />
Norwegian cannot confirm seat assignments. We recommend that<br />
you or your travel professional contact the airlines directly for seat<br />
assignments. Specific air service requests, such as special meals or the<br />
addition of Frequent Flyer numbers to your airline records, should be<br />
made directly to the airlines.<br />
Travel Protection<br />
Important note: This is just a summary of coverage. Please refer to the<br />
BookSafe Travel Protection information booklet available on our website<br />
at <strong>ncl</strong>.com to review the terms, conditions and exclusions and other<br />
applicable limitations. The Travel Protection Plan cost may be paid at<br />
any time, from deposit up to and i<strong>ncl</strong>uding final payment; however, trip<br />
cancellation coverage takes effect only upon payment of your Travel<br />
Protection cost. All other coverage is effective upon your departure for<br />
your trip. Payment of your cruise fare deposit without Travel Protection<br />
will not activate your coverage.<br />
Important note: Cruise credits cannot be applied to government<br />
taxes and fees, air add-ons, land packages, travel protection, Shore<br />
Excursions, gratuities, incidentals or any purchases of a personal nature.<br />

however, once a rate is quoted with Guest’s booking, that rate will not change<br />
unless as a result of changes made to a Guest’s total fare paid.<br />
Applicable Law and Forum and Limitations<br />
on Actions<br />
Any and all disputes or matters whatsoever incident to, arising from,<br />
or connected with the Guest Ticket Contract or your cruise shall be<br />
governed by the provisions relating to choice of law, forum selection<br />
and certain limitations on your rights to bring a cause of action against<br />
Norwegian. Guests should read the Guest Ticket Contract terms and<br />
conditions carefully, paying particular attention to Sections 5, 10 and 14<br />
for full information on choice of law, forum selection and limitations on<br />
your rights. A copy of the Guest Ticket Contract terms and conditions is<br />
available upon request and can be reviewed at <strong>ncl</strong>.com.<br />
Your Travel Professional<br />
Your travel professional acts for you in making the arrangements<br />
for your cruise and any related travel, lodging and tours. Norwegian<br />
cannot be responsible for the financial condition or integrity of any<br />
travel professional utilized by you. Norwegian is not responsible for any<br />
representations or conduct of your travel professional, i<strong>ncl</strong>uding, but<br />
not limited to, failure to remit your deposit or other funds to Norwegian,<br />
for which you shall at all times be liable to Norwegian, or any failure to<br />
remit a refund from Norwegian to you.<br />
Safety and Security<br />
Norwegian visits a large number of ports in numerous countries around<br />
the world. At any given moment, there are likely to be “trouble spots” in<br />
the world, in terms of crime and/or war or terrorist actions. Accordingly,<br />
it may be necessary to change the published cruise or Shore Excursion<br />
itinerary. Any such changes are for your safety and beyond Norwegian’s<br />
control. While Norwegian endeavors to provide reasonable protection<br />
for your comfort and safety on board its ships, Norwegian cannot<br />
guarantee freedom from all risks associated with war, terrorism, crime<br />
or other potential sources of harm. Norwegian reminds all Guests<br />
that they must ultimately assume responsibility for their actions while<br />
ashore. The U.S. Department of State and other similar government<br />
agencies regularly issue advisories and warnings to travelers, giving<br />
details of local conditions in specified cities and countries according<br />
to the agency’s perception of risks to travelers. Norwegian strongly<br />
recommends that Guests and their travel professionals obtain and<br />
consider such information when making travel decisions. Also, please be<br />
advised that weapons and illegal narcotics (i<strong>ncl</strong>uding medical marijuana<br />
or similar drugs used for medicinal purposes) are not permitted on<br />
board any Norwegian ship.<br />
