1. MAIN CONDITIONS OF TRANSPORT OF SHIPPING COMPANIES

By purchasing a sea ticket, a transport contract is stipulated between the shipping company (carrier) and the passenger. This contract does not constitute a tourist package and is not subject to the relevant regulations. The party that assumes the obligation of transport is the carrier, as identified on the travel document. Seamed Trading Shipping in this relationship operates as a mere intermediary. Transport is carried out by the carrier according to its general conditions of transport, reported in the relevant brochures and available at our offices or on our website.

The carrier undertakes to respect the planned travel program, however, in the event of unforeseen circumstances, by way of example and not limited to, even minor breakdowns, force majeure, staff strike, ship detention for maritime credits, it reserves the right to change the timetables or replace one ship with another even without notice.
