Notice

Cheyenne Travel Agency, Inc. dba Please Go Away™ Vacations give notice that all tickets, vouchers, and coupons issued by them and all arrangements for transportation or conveyance or for hotel or lodging or for sightseeing services made by them, are made by them as agent for all involved operators, charter organizers, air/ocean/land carriers, hotels and all other suppliers without exception and upon express condition that they shall not be liable for injury, damage, loss, accident, delay or irregularity which may be occasioned either by reasons of defect in any vehicle or through the

acts or default of any company or person that is engaged in conveying the passenger, furnishing rental cars to him, furnishing sightseeing services to him, or that participates in carrying out the arrangements of the tour or otherwise in connection therewith, or of any hotel or lodging or employee of said hotel or lodging. All prices are based upon those in effect at time of brochure printing and/or expected to be in effect at time of travel and are subject to change. Cheyenne Travel Agency Inc. dba Please Go Away™ Vacations give notice that they cannot be held responsible for any disruption of travel and/or related services due to monetary crises, political or social unrest, labor problems, climatic aberrations, local law, disease or unusual conditions, or for any other reasons whatsoever. These limitations of responsibility and liability likewise extend to any sponsoring person,

persons, or organization.

Possible Physical or Other Challenges and Travelers Responsibility to Notify

You should know that, although we make every attempt to minimize, almost every travel experience will require a certain amount of walking, stair climbing, and other forms of physical activity. Any particularly significant physical challenges of which we are aware will be made known to you so that you can make an informed decision as to whether the travel experiences are acceptable to you in sufficient time so that you can avoid or minimize monetary losses in the event you choose to cancel your travel plans pursuant to the cancellation provisions shown elsewhere in this brochure. However, just like we will notify you of particular challenges of which we have knowledge, so also is it absolutely incumbent upon you to fully inform us of any physical or other challenges that will impair your enjoyment of the awaiting travel experiences “in any way.” This is so we can be in a position to recommend assistance services that can be of assistance to you. You do need to know that almost every motor coach and other transportation company will not allow their drivers and tour hosts to physically assist you in any way as you enter or depart a motor coach, other forms of conveyance, and physical facilities. Likewise, the Cheyenne Travel Agency, Inc. dba Please Go Away™ Vacations personal tour host will not be in a position to provide these services either. The positive end result and satisfactory solution to any such or similar challenges you may have can and should be addressed by you having a person accompany you who is able to perform these services for you. Likewise, it is incumbent upon you to fully inform us of the need for, and to use when we request, the use of a wheelchair or cart conveyance from and to various points in airports, etc. We will always, when possible, be more than happy to arrange such conveyances ahead of time for you when you make their requirement known to us. It is the understanding of you and all other parties that you do not desire, nor is it

fair to other fellow travelers, to require the group to be impeded in any way by unreported challenges. Together, by full and honest exchanges of information between us, you should be able to enjoy a rewarding and

memorable travel experience.

Travel Protection and Preferred Method of Payment

The monetary investments you make in travel plans and arrangements are very substantial and can be subject to very significant cancellation fees and various assessments imposed by many different components and suppliers of any travel experience. Various amounts can be imposed by airlines, cruise ships, and others depending upon actual date and circumstances of cancellations and/or travel interruptions, possibly totaling 100%, or more of the amounts you paid. We “do not” recommend the protection plans offered by individual cruise lines and/or individual tour operators. These are most often very limited in scope and are quite often misleading and/or unclear in their coverage provisions. There are normally a number of excluded situations in their plans, which preclude complete recovery, or which do not sufficiently provide maximum coverage for the expenses incurred for the overall components of your travel experience. Such plans have been subject to numerous failed protections and complaints. It is the opinion of Cheyenne Travel Agency, Inc. dba Please Go Away™ Vacations that the Travel Insured International protection plans we provide are superior. Cheyenne Travel Agency, Inc. dba Please Go Away™ Vacations acts only as agent for Travel Insured International. All decisions as to policy interpretations and coverage are made solely by Travel Insured International, as is true with “all” available insurance protection plans. To save our travelers money, we prefer payments for all departures described in this catalog and/or brochure only in the form of your check, money order, or cash. This allows us to keep from passing through to each of our travelers the substantial fees charged by credit card companies. Because of the high quality of our travelers we do not feel the necessity of protecting ourselves by accepting credit cards - your word and your personal payments are sufficient. Also, it is necessary that we direct your payments to many different travel components. The use of credit cards complicates this procedure. In the rare instance when a client insists upon using a credit card for payment toward one of our personally escorted travel experiences there will be a supplemental service/transaction fee of a

minimum of 4% of the amount charged added to the credit card transaction.

Comments on Airlines Used

As part of Cheyenne Travel Agency, Inc. dba Please Go Away™ Vacations unmatched personal service of “taking” travelers on the personally escorted travel experiences detailed in this catalog and/or this brochure, as opposed to “sending” them on their own; while at the same time providing value-added “all inclusive” travel experiences where everything specifically referenced in the descriptive brochure is already included in the price shown. This includes, but is not limited to, round trip air transportation from a specific named departure city or cities (changes in the departure city used are allowed with proper adjustment of pricing). The identity of specific carrier(s) used, which may include a code-share flight, will be assigned and disclosed at a later date, when known. In the alternative, individual travelers may arrange their own air transportation that properly coincides with arrival and departure requirements of the specific tour departure. If done, proper reductions will be calculated. In today’s travel world airlines regularly charge to check luggage, for overweight luggage, and for other services. When imposed, airlines require the traveler to individually pay for these amounts with credit or debit cards, or cash. Because of this, such charges are not included in any indicated tour cost. Flight air fares will be calculated from Wichita, KS unless schedules or availability indicate otherwise. We are pleased to attempt to arrange flights from other departure cities if more convenient for, and requested by, our travelers. When this occurs fare adjustments - either up or down - are passed

through to the affected traveler.
