Responsibility:
The traveler acknowledges that Maritz Journeys, its parent,
subsidiary and affiliated companies maintain no control over the
independent suppliers that will be providing accommodations and
services as a part of the travel program. Accordingly, the

parent, subsidiary or affiliated companies responsible for any loss
or injury which may be caused or contributed to by such suppliers or
by any other cause, condition or event whatsoever beyond the direct
control of Maritz Journeys or their respective parent, subsidiary or
affiliated companies. The undersigned hereby release Maritz
Journeys, its parent, subsidiary and affiliated companies, and their
respective officers, directors, employees and agents from any and
all liability for claims resulting from any acts or omissions of the
independent travel suppliers providing accommodations and services
in connection with the travel arrangements, or from any other cause,
condition or event beyond the direct control of Maritz Journeys or
its parent, subsidiary or affiliated companies.
Payment

provided to the traveler either verbally or in writing by the Maritz
Journeys Destination Specialist. Airline ticket costs are not
guaranteed and are subject to change prior to ticketing.
If the traveler elects to change the destination for services
and an invoice has been provided, Maritz Journeys reserves the right
to charge the traveler an additional planning fee.

from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, fines,
penalties and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that
arise out of or result from: (i) injuries or death to persons or
damage to property in any way resulting from or arising out of any
acts or omissions of the traveler or agent or any other persons
participating in the travel arrangements at the traveler’s
request; (ii) any failure of the traveler to perform, or to cause
the performance of, its obligations under this Agreement; or (iii)
any acts or omissions of the traveler or agent or any other persons
participating in the travel arrangements at the traveler’s request

fees and expenses), (i) both Maritz Journeys and the traveler’s
right to recover damages is limited to, in the aggregate, the amount
received by Maritz Journeys from the traveler within the

shall have liability to the other, or any other person or entity,
for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive
damages, whatsoever, including without limitation loss of data or
programming, loss of revenue or profits, lost or damaged data,
