    Article 7 bis: MODIFICATION AT THE CUSTOMER'S INITIATIVE

    Caution: In the case of services including air transport, these costs may amount to the amount of the redemption of the round trip ticket. In the event of a cruise modification, the replacement cruise must be of equivalent or greater value, if the current rate of the new reservation is lower than that of the initial cruise, no refund will be due to the passenger. MSC ISSEO Rate: Any name change is considered a cancellation (see cancellation fee in section 7).

    The consumer thus has seven clear days to exercise his right of withdrawal not only when concluding a sale but also when entering into any contract for the provision of services, with the exception of certain goods or services (Article L. 121-20 of the Consumer Code, Ordinance No 2001-741, 23 August 2001, Article 5). However, pursuant to Article L. 121-20-4 2° of the Consumer Code (Ordinance No. 2001-741, 23 August 2001, Article 5) "the provisions of Articles L. 121-18, L. 121-19, L. 121-20 and L. 121-20-1 shall not apply to contracts having as their object:... the provision of accommodation, transport, catering and leisure services which must be provided by a specified date or at a specified frequency...". Therefore, a person who booked a trip over the Internet for a specific date cannot use the seven-day withdrawal period to cancel his or her reservation. If the consumer blocks payment, the service provider may take legal action because he can prove the consumer's commitment and the claim resulting from it

    Article 8: PAYMENT

    The formalities mentioned in the CRUISELINE electronic catalog are intended for French nationals and are given for information purposes only.

    Concerning the extension of expired CNIs by 5 years: in order to avoid any inconvenience during the trip, it is strongly recommended to choose the use of a valid passport over a CNI with an expired end date, even if it is considered by the French authorities to be still valid. Indeed, if the migration authorities of the Schengen countries are informed of this new measure, it cannot be guaranteed that it will be understood and assimilated by other actors (hotels, banks, shops) throughout the territory of the Schengen area countries likely to require the presentation of an identity document. Please continue to have a valid CNI on the card or a valid passport.

    2. Pregnant women

    "On board the ships, the medical equipment is not suitable for childbirth, so shipping companies will not be able to accept a reservation or carry a passenger who is 24 weeks or more pregnant at the end of the cruise. Any passenger who becomes pregnant after a reservation must inform our service as soon as possible, who may take appropriate measures without this, our company will decline any responsibility or other obligation. Therefore, clients must be able to demonstrate that they are less than 24 Weeks pregnant in order to be able to board the boat”.

    Article 10: TRANSPORTERS' LIABILITY

    The Shipowner shall have the right to assign to the passenger a cabin other than that originally fixed, provided that it belongs to the same category or higher.

    TANDEM offer: The location of the 2nd cabin is to be confirmed by MSC Cruise. The shipowner cannot guarantee that it is adjacent to the first one, perhaps also of another category or located on another deck.

    In the event of a sale with a "cabin in guarantee" formula, the Shipowner undertakes to guarantee the availability and price of the cabin, the assignment of the latter is communicated to the customer at the latest at the time of embarkation since it is a cabin that is physically unavailable at the time of booking. In this specific case, the Shipowner reserves the right to assign a cabin with separate beds, bunk beds, reserved for people with reduced mobility, cabin with obstructed view or to change cabin during the cruise.

    Quadruple cabin guarantee: The shipowner may assign two double cabins to passengers.

    CRUISELINE cannot be held liable for the liability of French or foreign carriers providing transfers or transport of passengers and luggage.

    The liability of air transport companies, or other carriers using other modes of transport, participating in cruises and train journeys presented in the CRUISELINE electronic catalog, of their representatives, agents or employees is limited in the event of damage, complaints or claims of any kind, to the conditions of air transport, or other modes of transport, of passengers and their luggage exclusively.

    CRUISELINE cannot be held liable for the liability of French or foreign carriers providing transfers or transport of passengers and luggage.

    CRUISELINE draws the buyer's attention to the following circumstances, which are likely to limit CRUISELINE's liability in respect of the cruises and train journeys proposed in the CRUISELINE electronic catalog: specific air transport constraints, linked in particular to airspace congestion, air navigation rules, aircraft handling times at airports, subject to the essential concern for the safety of passengers carried, may lead companies to modify the estimated schedules, both for scheduled and special flights.

    Article 15: PERSONAL INFORMATION

    In the absence of express opposition on his part, the buyer gives his consent to the use of the personal data collected under the terms of his cruise order, as part of CRUISELINE's customer file

    In accordance with the law n° 78-17 of 6 January 1978 relating to data processing, files and freedoms, the buyer has at any time a right of access and rectification. In this case, he must send his request to CRUISELINE - Legal Service - 1 rue du gabian Le thales C 98 000 (mc) Monaco.

    Article 16: FORMALITES

    (Passport, identity cards, visas, currency and vaccinations) Passengers must be in possession of a passport and/or identity card valid 6 months after departure. Information relating to regulations in force outside the Common Market is the responsibility of the passenger. The costs and fines caused by non-compliance in the event of refoulement by the authorities shall be borne by the travelers. If a visa, passport or other document is not available on time and therefore the departure must be refused, the cancellation fee will be applied.

    Article 18: DISPUTE SETTLEMENT

    In the case of a dispute, the buyer will first contact the seller in order to agree on an amicable solution.

    The fact that CRUISELINE does not rely on a breach of any of the obligations incumbent on the buyer, governed by these conditions of sale, cannot be interpreted as a waiver for the future of the obligation in question, nor of the buyer's right to subsequently invoke this breach.

    Article 19: MODIFICATION OF ROUTES AND SCHEDULES

    Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that the ship will call at each of the scheduled ports or follow the prescribed route. Certain external circumstances (weather conditions*, strikes, riots, etc.) may require the Commander, in order to ensure passenger safety, to cancel or shorten a stopover, to make additional stops and, more generally, to make changes to the planned itinerary, or to change ships or ports. We shall not be liable to passengers for this fact or for any failure to respect the arrival or departure times indicated in the brochure, regardless of the stopover.

    Article 20: FORCE MAJEURE

    In case of force majeure, CRUISELINE cannot be held liable. Force majeure means any event external to the parties of an unforeseeable and insurmountable nature which prevents either the travellers or the agency or service providers involved in the journey from performing all or part of the obligations provided for in the contract. We will not assume any liability when the services we have undertaken to organise or provide for you as part of your cruise or train, either cannot be provided or cannot be provided under the promised conditions for reasons totally beyond our control and control, falling within the scope of force majeure, even if we have taken all reasonable precautions. The events in question include wars or threats of wars, acts of terrorism or threats of such acts, riots or unrest, strikes, natural or nuclear disasters, fires, bad weather, risks of epidemics, mechanical problems (which are not predictable despite numerous roadworthiness tests) and other such events that are beyond our control.
