1. Purpose and Scope

This Payment Plan Policy governs all financial obligations associated with any group trip, retreat, relocation preview trip, cruise experience, or other travel service (collectively, “Experiences”) offered by Blissful Sol Travel (“Company”).
By submitting a deposit or enrolling in a payment plan, the traveler (“Guest”) agrees to be legally bound by this Policy.

2. Non‑Refundable Payments

2.1 Deposit

All deposits are strictly non‑refundable and non‑transferable.
Deposits cannot be applied to another trip, another date, another traveler, or another service.

2.2 Vendor Payments Made in Advance

All payments, including deposits and installment payments, are non‑refundable because the Company pre‑pays vendors, accommodations, transportation providers, facilitators, and activity partners in advance to secure contracted services and group rates.
These funds are not recoverable once paid on behalf of the Guest.

2.3 No Exceptions

The Company does not issue refunds for:

• Illness, injury, or medical conditions
• Work or schedule changes
• Family emergencies
• Travel delays or missed flights
• Weather or natural conditions
• Personal circumstances or changes of mind
• Failure to obtain passports, visas, or required documents
• Any other reason not expressly stated in Section 7

3. Automatic Payment Plans

3.1 Mandatory Auto‑Debit Enrollment

All Experiences require Guests to enroll in the automatic payment plan associated with that specific trip.
Manual payments, custom schedules, or alternative arrangements are not permitted.

3.2 Payment Schedule

The payment schedule is preset and published on the Experience page.
By paying the deposit, the Guest authorizes the Company’s payment processor to automatically charge the Guest’s payment method on the scheduled dates.

 3.3 Failed Payments

If an automatic payment fails:

• The Guest will be notified, and
• The Guest must update their payment method within 48 hours

Failure to resolve a failed payment may result in:

• Removal from the trip without refund, and
• Forfeiture of all amounts paid to date

4. Travel Insurance Requirement

4.1 Strong Recommendation

Due to the Company’s strict no‑refund policy, the Company strongly recommends that all Guests purchase comprehensive travel insurance.

4.2 Faye Travel Insurance

For Guest convenience, the Company offers access to Faye Travel Insurance, a reputable third‑party provider offering comprehensive coverage for unexpected events.

4.3 Insurance Claims

Any reimbursement for covered events must be pursued directly through the Guest’s insurance provider.
The Company does not mediate, influence, or guarantee insurance outcomes.

5. Transferability

Payments, deposits, and reservations are not transferable to another Guest, another trip, another date, or another service.

6. Cancellations by Guest

If a Guest cancels their participation for any reason, all payments made to date are forfeited.
No credits, refunds, or substitutions will be issued.

7. Cancellations by Blissful Sol Travel

7.1 Minimum Guest Count Not Met

Each Experience requires a minimum number of Guests to operate.
The Company is the sole determiner of the minimum guest count.
If the Company cancels an Experience because the minimum guest count is not met, Guests will receive a full refund of all payments made directly to the Company.

7.2 Impossibility or Force Majeure

If the Company cancels an Experience due to circumstances that make operation impossible, including but not limited to:

• Supplier or venue failure
• Natural disasters
• Government restrictions
• Safety concerns
• Illness outbreaks
• Other force majeure events

Refunds will be issued only if vendor funds are recoverable.
If vendor funds are not recoverable, Guests must seek reimbursement through their travel insurance provider.

7.3 Sole Refund Circumstances

Refunds are issued only under the following conditions:

1. The Company cancels the Experience due to the minimum guest count not being met; or
2. The Company cancels the Experience, and vendor funds are recoverable.

No other circumstances qualify for a refund.

8. Acceptance of Terms

By paying a deposit, enrolling in a payment plan, or participating in any Experience, the Guest acknowledges and agrees to this Payment Plan Policy in full.
