Cancellation Protection Plan

Choose our Cancellation Super Protector (CSP) for maximum refund options, or rely on our Standard Cancellation Protector for essential coverage.

At Student Adventures, we understand that plans can change. Our Cancellation Protection Plans are designed to give you flexibility and security. Choose our Cancellation Super Protector (CSP) for maximum refund options, or rely on our Standard Cancellation Protector for essential coverage. Travel with confidence knowing your investment is protected.

With the purchase of CSP, participants may cancel for any reason, any time prior to departure and receive a full refund less the cost of the protection and any Non-Refundable fees listed below.

*Non-Refundable Fees: The non-refundable fees include the cost of the CSP, non-refundable airfare, park admission tickets, theater tickets, dinner cruises, or dinner theaters if purchased on your behalf, bank NSF fees, late payment fees, phoned-in payments, and trip add-ons (shirts, photos, sweatshirts). An additional $99 late cancellation fee will be assessed for cancellations within 60 days of trip departure.

This policy is for every participant who travels with Student Adventures and chooses not to purchase the Cancellation Super Protector (CSP). You may (in writing) cancel your reservation and receive a full refund within five days following your initial payment. Beyond the five-day grace period, if you, the school, trip sponsor, or school administration cancels your trip for any reason, Student Adventures will base your refund from the schedule below.

Student Adventures will make vendor payments on your behalf to secure the best pricing and availability for items like airfare and show tickets. Non-refundable vendor payments are typically made soon after your initial deposit is made. Some vendors, such as hotels, may charge penalties for cancellation within 120 days of departure. Each vendor has different policies.

Why purchase CSP?

With the purchase of CSP, participants may cancel for any reason, at any time prior to departure and receive a full refund less than the cost of the protection fee and any non-refundable.

How much does CSP cost?

The cost of CSP varies by trip. To see how much CSP costs for your trip, check your school’s MyTrip page.

Do I have to pay CSP with my first deposit?

Yes.  Should you not pay the CSP amount it will be removed within 5 days of registration, and we are unable to add it back.

Can I add or remove CSP after payments have been made?

You may add or remove CSP within the first 5 days of registration, after that, we will not be able to add or remove.

What is “Mandatory CSP”? Can I remove it?

Mandatory CSP is something that your school elected to select on behalf of all participants going on the trip.

You are not able to remove Mandatory CSP since your school elected it on behalf of all participants.

Is the CSP fee refundable?

The CSP fee is only refundable if you cancel in writing within 5 days of your first deposit date. Otherwise, the cost of the cancellation protection is non-refundable.

Does purchasing CSP for my child cover the parent as well?

No, you must pay for your own CSP policy as well as one for your students if you want that protection.

How late can I wait before I decide whether or not to purchase CSP?

You must make a decision on whether or not to purchase CSP at the time of registration. It cannot be added on later.

What is included in the “nonrefundable fees”?

The non-refundable fees include the cost of the CSP, non-refundable airfare, park admission tickets, theater tickets, dinner cruises, or dinner theaters if purchased on your behalf, bank NSF fees, late payment fees, phoned-in payments, and trip add-ons (shirts, photos, sweatshirts). An additional $99 late cancellation fee will be assessed for cancellations within 60 days of trip departure.

Why is there an additional $99 cancellation fee within 60 days of departure in addition to the other non-refundable fees?

Without the purchase of CSP there is no eligible refund within 60 days of trip departure. Therefore, all money paid will be nonrefundable. By purchasing CSP, it ensures that you get most of your money back, less any non-refundable fees that apply.
