Trip Cancellation Policy:

In the event you must cancel a trip that you have booked, we will do our best to fill your spot. Scuba World Sacramento will, however, collect a $100 cancellation fee per person even if we are able to fill your vacated spot. All refunded monies will be credited to your in-store account. If we are unable to fill your spot on the trip, all money paid toward the trip will be forfeited. 

We recommend you purchase TRIP CANCELLATION AND INTERRUPTION INSURANCE COVERAGE in addition to the Diver Accident Insurance. Remember, October in the Caribbean is HURRICAN SEASON. 

For peace of mind, SWS strongly recommends you purchase additional trip cancellation/interruption coverage to help defray costs arising from unforeseen events.  No one plans an emergency.  But you can prepare for one.  Carefully read any insurance policy before purchase to make sure it covers your specific needs. 

*Scuba World is NOT A SELLER OF INSURANCE.  We are giving you information about insurance coverage as a service only.  Once you find a policy you wish to purchase you must purchase that policy directly from the insurance agency.

Divers Alert Network in addition to selling Diver Accident Insurance coverage also sells trip cancellation and interruption insurance coverage which is an expanded version of the basic DAN diver accident coverage.  SWS highly recommends purchase of this trip specific additional coverage.  In the event you have to cancel, the additional trip insurance coverage could help you receive reimbursement for non-refundable deposits and costs should you have to cancel or interrupt your trip to come home for reasons not covered under the Diver Accident Insurance Coverage.
