Hotel
Rooms, Hotel Rates and Rate Guarantee
Hotel rooms are "standard" unless stated otherwise under the hotel
listing. Room location will be at the hotel's discretion and is
typically assigned upon check-in. Sorry, no pets allowed.
The hotel rates listed in this brochure are per room/per night based
on 2 people sharing a room, and do not include taxes. These rates are
based on the published rack rates provided to FPT by the hotels at the
time of this printing. No promotional or other discounts, including
internet rates, apply.
The rates, seasonal dates and hotels are subject to change at any
time. FPT guarantees hotel rates only for confirmed reservations that
are paid in full at the time a hotel increase occurs. Once FPT has
been informed that a hotel rate increase will occur, FPT is under no
obligation to provide a grace period so that unpaid reservations can
be paid in full in order to qualify for a hotel rate guarantee.
All taxes (hotel, airline and cruise line related) and fuel
surcharges, if applicable, are subject to increase at any time without
notice. FPT reserves the right to invoice such increases if and when
they occur, regardless of whether or not a reservation is fully paid.
Advance Notice Requirements & Availability
You are required to provide just one travel date choice, in compliance
with these Terms & Conditions. FPT most receive the correctly
completed Reservation Form, by regular mail or by email, at least 45
days before your requested departure date. Please provide more advance
notice if possible. All reservations are subject to
availability. When
traveling to Cancun in the winter or summer or to Europe in the spring
or summer, we suggest you provide at least 90 days advance notice to
ensure availability. When requesting to travel during President's
Birthday Holiday in February, during March or during Thanksgiving
Week, be aware that availability sells out months in advance so plan
accordingly.
Correctly completed Reservation Forms are processed based on FPT's
availability of coach-class airline seats and hotel rooms as per our
contractual rates. Since we have a "free sell" relationship with our
suppliers (air carrier, hotel, cruise line), we will process all
correctly completed Reservation Forms as "available" until a supplier
informs us that certain dates are "unavailable" under our contract.
Availability for specific dates is not confirmed with the supplier
until we receive your payment (deposit or full payment). If, at the
time of confirmation, our supplier informs us that your requested
travel date is not available under our contract, we reserve the right
to offer alternate travel dates or alternate destinations/hotels, and,
in that rare event, we will contact you in as expedient a manner as
possible.

from the hotels listed on page 7 for I, 2 or 3 of the total minimum
number of nights required, and then select from the hotels on page 8
for the remaining number of nights. Or, you may spend all of your
required number of nights at one or more of the hotels on page 8.
Airfare is provided to/from Honolulu on the island of Oahu. If you

How To Request Your Reservations
Complete one Reservation Form for each set of two round-trip airline
tickets you are requesting. Each Form requires the purchase of one
hotel room for the minimum number of nights required, based on your
departure airport and requested destination.
Be sure your requested travel date does not begin, end or overlap any
Black-Out Date (see the list of Black-Out Dates above). Be sure your
requested travel date complies with any day-of-the-week restrictions
associated with your requested destination (see the list above).
Submit your correctly completed Form to FPT so that we receive it no
less than 45 days (or 90 days if requesting Europe or Cancun) before
your requested departure date. You may submit your Form either way
below (do not send it both ways):
Regular Mail to: First Priority Travel, 100 E. Pine St., Suite 202,
Orlando FL 32801. Email: go to
www.fptravel.com, click on “Request A Reservation”, enter the
Package Code and Serial Number found on the Reservation Form enclosed
in this brochure, complete the Form and submit it.
If you do not complete the Form correctly (in compliance with the
Terms & Conditions), or if we do not receive your Form with the number
of days advance notice required, the Form will be returned to you for
correction. If we know your requested travel date is not available, we
will return the Form to you for an alternate choice. When you resubmit
the Form for any reason, you must, again, comply with all Terms &
Conditions, including the advance notice requirement.
Deposit and Payment Requirements
Do
not send any money when you submit your Reservation Form.
When we receive your correctly completed Reservation Form, we will
determine initial availability. Assuming your request is available, an
Invoice/Statement will be generated and sent to you in the same way
you submitted your Reservation Form (by regular mail or by email). The
Invoice/Statement will outline the travel components intended to be
confirmed upon receipt of your payment and will specify the payment
requirements.
You will be required to pay the full amount shown on the
Invoice/Statement, so that FPT receives it within 15 calendar days
from, and including, the date the Invoice/Statement was generated,
under the following circumstances (please read the "Payment Form"
section, below): *If you are requesting to travel
in 60 days or
less.
*If you are requesting to travel to Mexico, London, Paris, Rome or
Venice. *If you are requesting
to travel during President's Birthday Holiday in February, or during
March or during Thanksgiving Week.
Otherwise, you will be required to pay a deposit of $125 per person,
so that FPT receives it within 15 calendar days from, and including,
the date the Invoice/Statement was generated. The balance must then be
received by FPT no less than 45 calendar days prior to departure
(please read "Payment Form" section below).
In either case, the deposit or full payment must be received by FPT,
in acceptable payment form, by the due date or your reservation is
subject to automatic cancellation.
If you submit your Reservation Form by email, you must mail the
corresponding original, numbered Form (found in this brochure) with
your deposit or full payment or your reservation is subject to
automatic cancellation.
Payment Form
All
deposits and/or payments made to FPT must be in the form of a cashier's
check or money order, made payable to First Priority Travel.
Requests To Travel With Another Party
You may
submit two Reservation Forms together, requesting to travel together.
However, you may not submit more than two Reservation Forms with the same
requested departure date and destination
If There's More Than 2 People In Your Party
You may submit both of the Reservation Forms found at the back of this
brochure together to receive a total of four round-trip airline tickets as
long as you purchase two separate hotel rooms through FPT for the minimum
number of nights required, choosing from the hotels and rates listed
within this brochure.
Or, if you are traveling with young children and want them to share a
hotel room with you, then use one Reservation Form to receive two
round-trip airline tickets (for the adults) and purchase the extra airline
tickets through FPT, at the lowest possible fare, to coordinate with your
flight schedule. Depending on the age of the children and the hotel's
policy, there may or may not be an "extra person" room charge. Most hotels
allow up to 2 children under the age of 16 to share the room with their
parents, using the existing bedding, at no additional room charge (there
may be a charge for a requested roll-away bed or crib).
Extended Vacation Requests
You may
purchase extra nights through FPT at the hotel rates shown in this
brochure. You may also request to extend your vacation (return flight)
without purchasing extra nights through FPT, provided that the extension
does not cause any portion of your travel period to fall within any
black-out dates applicable to your requested destination. If you want to
extend your return flight, but not purchase the extra nights hotel
accommodations through FPT, your request to do so must be made in writing
in the "Comments" section of the originally submitted Reservation Form.
In either case, if the extended vacation request causes the cost of the
airline tickets to increase, you will be required to pay FPT a flight
surcharge equal to the difference in cost. The amount of the flight
surcharge will not show on your original Invoice/Statement because the
surcharge is not determined until the airline tickets are ordered after
you have submitted full payment for the hotel room and taxes.
Extended vacation requests are subject to availability and the airline's
rules regarding the maximum number of days allowed between departure and
return flights.
Vacation Revisions
Once a
Reservation Form has been received and processed, the primary
(first-named) traveler's name may not be changed. Other revisions may be
requested, subject to availability and compliance with all Terms &
Conditions. Change requests must be made in writing and sent to First
Priority Travel, 100 E. Pine St., Suite 202, Orlando FL 32801. A change
fee of $25, in the form of a cashiers check or money order, must accompany
the written change request. Written change requests received by FPT within
15 calendar days from the date the original Invoice/Statement was
generated are not subject to a change fee. Once airline tickets have been
ordered, changes are no longer permitted and cancellation policies will
take effect.
Cancellations & Refunds
All
requests and reservations are subject to automatic cancellation if the
deposit or full balance payment, in the acceptable payment form, is not
received by the due date. If a cancellation occurs for this reason, you
may re-instate your ability to request a different travel date, in
compliance with all Terms & Conditions and subject to availability,
provided you make a request in writing and submit the written request with
a re-booking fee of $25, in the form of a cashiers check or money order,
to: First Priority Travel, 100 E. Pine St., Suite 202, Orlando FL
32801. All cancellations of confirmed reservations must be made in
writing and may be subject to cancellation penalties based on the work-day
date FPT receives the written cancellation request. Written cancellation
requests received before FPT has ordered airline tickets may request a
refund, less a $50 cancellation fee, or may request an alternate travel
date, in compliance with the Terms & Conditions and subject to
availability, in which case previously paid money, less a $50 cancellation
fee and a $25 change fee, will be applied. Written cancellation requests
received after FPT has ordered airline tickets but no less than 14
calendar days prior to scheduled departure may only request an alternate
travel date, in compliance with the Terms & Conditions and subject to
availability, and are subject to a $50 cancellation fee and $25 change
fee, plus penalties and change fees charged by the airline or cruise line
(if applicable). Airline tickets and travel documents must be submitted
with the written cancellation request. Cancellations received by FPT less
than 14 calendar days prior to departure and no-shows are not eligible to
re-book or receive a refund of any kind.
If, after paying a deposit or full payment, FPT notifies you that your
reservation is "not available", you may request a full refund of all money
previously paid to FPT towards this reservation, without penalty, or you
may apply all money towards an alternate booking of this offer, subject to
availability, without penalty.
