Carnival's vessels visit numerous ports in a number of countries.
Guests assume responsibility for their own safety and Jubilee Productions
cannot guarantee Guest's safety at any time. The United States Department
of State, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other governmental
and tourist organizations regularly issue advisories and warnings to travelers
and Jubilee Productions strongly recommends Guests obtain and consider such
information when making travel decisions. Jubilee Productions assumes no
responsibility for gathering said information. The Guest acknowledges that
the cruise may be booked in a location that is susceptible to severe weather
systems, including but not limited to, hurricanes, tropical storms and
depressions, and that Carnival reserves the right to alter the ship's course,
ports of call, itinerary, activity and shore excursions to avoid such weather
systems and insure the comfort and safety of the Guest and
crew.
Proper travel documentation is required at embarkation and
throughout the cruise. It is the guest's sole responsibility to bring and
have available at all times all required travel documents. Guests are advised
to check with their travel agent or the appropriate government authority
to determine the necessary documents. Any guest traveling without proper
documentation will not be allowed to board the vessel and no refund of the
cruise fare will be issued.
Carnival shall refuse boarding to any Guest under the age of
twenty-one unless: (1) the Guest is traveling in the same stateroom with
an individual twenty-five years or older; (2) traveling in the same stateroom
with their spouse; or (3) traveling with a parent or guardian in an accompanying
stateroom. Proof of age and/or proof of marriage are required. Carnival shall
not be liable to make any refunds or for any damages with respect to any
Guest's failure to provide proper proof of age or marriage or otherwise comply
with this provision.
BAGGAGE, PERSONAL PROPERTY, PROHIBITED ITEMS, LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY
Liability for loss or damage to personal baggage in connection
with the vessel shall be limited according to the Cruise Ticket Provisions.

to provide.
(a) Each fully paid adult Guest will be allowed a reasonable

warrants that no such articles are contained in any receptacle or container
presented by him as baggage hereunder, and if any such articles are shipped
in the Guest's baggage in breach of this warranty, no liability for negligence,
gross or ordinary, shall attach to Jubilee Productions for any loss or damage

(d) It is stipulated and agreed that the aggregate value of
Guest's property, does not exceed $50 per guest or bag with a maximum value
of $100 per stateroom regardless of the number of occupants or bags and any
liability of Carnival for any cause whatsoever with respect to said property
shall not exceed such sum, unless the Guest shall in writing, delivered to
Carnival, prior to embarkation, declare the true value thereof and pay to
Carnival prior to embarkation a sum equal to 5% of the excess of such value.
If Carnival shall be held liable for the loss of or damage to Guest's baggage
or property it is agreed that such liability shall not exceed the lesser
of: (1) the actual cash value, or (2) value declared in the manner above
provided (up to U.S. $100 if no such declaration has been made). Declared
value amounts to be proportionately reduced in any case where less than all
of Guest's baggage or property is lost, delayed or rendered unusable due
to damage. In no event shall Carnival be liable to pay any compensation if
the nature or value of the property has been misrepresented. Jubilee Productions
is in no way responsible for luggage in any way. Guests must abide by Carnival's
guidelines and cannot hold Jubilee Productions liable.

advance notice given to Carnival). Guest will be solely responsible for any
and all damage and/or loss caused by service animals.
(f) Weapons, firearms, contraband, ammunition, explosives,
incendiary devices, or other dangerous items are strictly prohibited aboard
the vessel. Carnival reserves the right to confiscate, destroy and/or turn
over to authorities these or any other items it deems in its sole discretion
to be detrimental to the safety or comfort of any person or which are otherwise
improperly in the possession of any Guest. Each Guest warrants that no such
articles are contained in any receptacle or container carried or presented
as baggage. Alcoholic beverages are prohibited except as provided for in
clause 8(f). All Guests agree Carnival has, at all times with or without
notice, the right to search Guest's baggage and/or personal effects for any
of the prohibited items, at any location, to ensure compliance with these
restrictions. Any Guest who refuses any such search or screening, or any
Guest traveling with such items, may be denied boarding or disembarked and
no refund of the cruise fare will be issued. The Guest will be solely responsible
for any and all damage and/or loss caused by his violation of this
policy.
FITNESS TO TRAVEL, SPECIAL NEEDS, PREGNANCY, INFANTS, DRINKING,
DISEMBARKATION
(a) The Guest warrants that he and those traveling with him
are physically fit to travel at the time of embarkation and is required to
notify Carnival in writing at the time of booking the cruise of any physical
disability or medical condition which may require special assistance during
the voyage. Failure to do so will release Jubilee Productions and Carnival
from any liability for loss, damages or other compensation arising from or
related in any way to such disability or condition. Upon booking the cruise,
guests who have special needs are required to contact Carnival's Special
Needs Desk (305-599-2600 ext. 70025) to discuss the details of their special
needs. Jubilee Productions and Carnival reserves the right to require that
any Guest, who is not self-sufficient, travel with a companion who shall
take responsibility for any assistance needed during the voyage and in case
of emergency.
b) Carnival and the Master each reserves the right to refuse
passage, disembark or confine to a stateroom any Guest whose physical or
mental condition, or behavior would be considered in the sole opinion of
the Captain and/or the ship's physician to constitute a risk to the Guest's
own well-being or that of any other Guest or crew member. Guest understands
and acknowledges that in addition to the limitations on medical care described
in Clause 2 (a), prenatal and early infant care, in particular, may require
specialized diagnostic facilities and/or treatment that are not obtainable
during the cruise on board the ship and/or ashore in ports of call. Therefore,
the Guest agrees not to book a cruise or board the ship unless on the day
of disembarkation she is pregnant for 24 completed weeks or less, nor for
or with infants less than six months old--for trans-ocean crossings, South
America and Hawaii the infant must be at least twelve months of age at the
time of embarkation to sail. Carnival and the Master reserve the right to
disembark any guest whose behavior affects the comfort, enjoyment, safety
or well being of other guests or of any crew. All expectant Guests further
agree to provide Carnival, prior to embarkation, with a physician's statement
verifying that her gestational status is in accordance with this policy,
and certifying her fitness to travel even if she will be less than twenty-four
completed weeks pregnant upon disembarkation. Failure to do so shall result
in the cancellation of the Guest's reservation without refund, compensation
or payment except as set forth in Carnival's cancellation policy described
in Clause 6, based on the timing of such cancellation.
(c) When traveling with a minor and both parents/legal guardians
are not cruising, we strongly recommend bringing an original signed letter
from the absent parent/guardian authorizing the minor to travel with you.
This will expedite processing by the Department of Homeland Security. Please
note that a letter to this effect is required if debarking with children
in Mexico.
CANCELLATION BY GUEST, REFUNDS
Reservations will be held until 90 minutes prior to departure.
No refunds will be made in the event of "no shows", unused tickets, lost
tickets, interruptions, partially used tickets, or cancellations received
late or after the start of the cruise. Jubilee Productions strongly recommends
the purchase of trip cancellation insurance from your travel agent. Cancellation
charges for individual bookings will be assessed as listed below. For
cancellation charges related to group bookings, partial ship charters or
full ship charters refer to your charter contract or group booking agreement
for terms and conditions.
CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS $100 per person administrative
fee when cancelled on or before August 18, 2010.
$200 per person for cancellations between August 19, 2011
and September 18, 2011. 50% of price for cancellations between September
19 and November 18, 2010 No refund for no-shows or cancellations after November

COMPLIANCE WITH RULES
(a) Guest agrees during the course of the voyage to follow
the directions of the ship's Master, or his authorized officer. Guest further
agrees not to solicit anyone on the vessel for any commercial or professional
purposes. Guest agrees that any violation of this Clause may subject guest
to disembarkation.
(b) Guest acknowledges that Carnival's vessels contain non-smoking
sections. Guest agrees to refrain from smoking in those sections and agrees
that Carnival has the right to disembark the Guest for failure to observe
Carnival's non-smoking policy.
(c) Carnival has designated the Spa stateroom and suite
accommodations as an entirely smoke free environment. Guest booked in a Spa
cabin agrees to strictly comply with this non-smoking policy and refrain
from smoking or allowing any other Guests from smoking in the Spa cabin.
Guest further acknowledges and agrees that any violation of this policy shall,
in the sole discretion of Carnival, constitute a material breach of this
cruise contract. In the event of such breach, Guest forfeits all rights
hereunder, including the right to occupy the Spa Cabin and remain on board.
Carnival reserves the right to move the Guest(s) to a non-Spa cabin or to
disembark the Guest(s), at any port, as determined by Carnival. Carnival
shall not be liable for any refund or other compensation or damages whatsoever
to any Guest vacated from the Spa Cabin or disembarked pursuant to this
provision, or who disembarks because another Guest is so disembarked, and
all such Guests forfeit all rights under Carnival's "Vacation Guarantee."
Guest and Carnival further agree that any violation of the non-smoking policy
would also cause Carnival to incur damages, including but not limited to,
loss of Guest goodwill, revenue, cleaning, maintenance and/or other costs.
Guest and Carnival expressly acknowledge the difficulty of ascertaining the
amount of such damages, and therefore agree that a reasonable estimate of
the damages for any violation of the non-smoking policy is $250. Guest authorizes
a charge in this amount as liquidated damages, as well as repatriation expenses
(including airfare) against Guest's on board charge account, without further
notice, for any violation of the non-smoking policy.
(d) Guest agrees, in all ports of call, to return to the Vessel
not less than 30 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Guest further
acknowledges that shipboard and shore side clocks may have different times,
but it is Guest's responsibility to return to the vessel so as not to miss
vessel's departure. Any costs associated with transporting Guest to rejoin
the vessel including, but not limited to, governmental fees, visa fees,
subsistence, lodging, air fare, launch fare, car hire or agency fees shall
be for the account of Guest.

transportation, as well as the ship's physician, and on board concessions

center, golf and art programs, video/snorkel concession) are either operated
by or are independent contractors. Jubilee Productions neither supervises

liable for any negligent or intentional acts or omissions, loss, damage,
injury or delay to Guest and/or Guest's baggage, property or effects in
connection with said services. Guests use the services of all independent
contractors at the Guest's sole risk. Independent contractors are entitled
to make a proper charge for any service performed with respect to a
Guest.
(b) Guest acknowledges that the ship's masseuse, barber, hair
dresser, manicurist, fitness or golf instructor, videographer, art auctioneer,
gift shop personnel, wedding planners or other providers of personal services
are employees of independent contractors and Jubilee Productions is not
responsible for their actions. Independent contractors, their employees and

authority to act on behalf of Jubilee Productions.
LIMITATIONS OF JUBILEE PRODUCTION'S LIABILITY
(a) In consideration for the fare paid, it is agreed that Jubilee
Productions shall not be held vicariously liable for the intentional or negligent
acts of any persons not employed by Jubilee Productions nor for any intentional
or negligent acts of Jubilee Production's employees committed while off duty
or outside the course and scope of their employment.
(b) In consideration for the fare paid, it is agreed that Jubilee

for damages for emotional distress, mental suffering/anguish or psychological
