| Certain risks - from natural
disasters to accidents, outbreaks of illness, terrorism, and war -
are inherent in travel. While such occurrences are beyond the control
of Elderhostel, Inc., and of our program and travel coordinators,
their staff and/or suppliers, we endeavor to be prepared for such
possibilities. |
|
In the event of conditions abroad that could
be potentially threatening, we are guided by advice from the U.S.
Department of State as well as from on-site personnel. Programs
operating in special environments and/or conditions, such as those
involving ocean-going vessels, must meet appropriate safety standards
and certification. As appropriate, our catalog descriptions
include information about special demands and/or conditions to guide
hostelers in program selection.
