This contract provides for the exclusive resolution of disputes through individual legal action on Passenger's or Guest's own behalf instead of through any class action. Even if the applicable law provides otherwise, Passenger or Guest agrees that any arbitration or lawsuit against carrier whatsoever shall be litigated by Passenger or Guest individually and not as a member of any class or as part of a class action, and Passenger or Guest expressly agrees to waive any law entitling guest to participate in a class action. If for any reason this class action waiver is unenforceable as to any particular claim, then Passenger or Guest agree to litigate said claims without a jury in China local Court.
  

Century reserves the right to increase published fares without prior notice. In the event of an increase, the Passenger has the option of accepting the increased fare or canceling reservations without penalty.
  

Reservations will be held until 30 minutes prior to departure. No refunds will be made in the event of "no shows", unused tickets, lost tickets, interruptions, partially used tickets, or cancellations received late or after the start of the cruise. A cancellation occurs when a stateroom is released and not simultaneously rebooked on the same sailing. Century strongly recommends the purchase of trip cancellation insurance from your travel agent. Cancellation charges for individual bookings will result in loss of deposit. For cancellation charges related to group bookings, partial ship charters or full ship charters refer to your charter contract or group booking agreement for terms and conditions.
