Relevant public health authorities, including but not limited to the CDC and others worldwide, are referred to herein as “Public Health Authorities.” You acknowledge that the risk of exposure to Communicable or Infectious Disease, such as COVID-19, includes the risk that you will expose others that you encounter, even if you are not experiencing or displaying any symptoms of illness.

Guest acknowledges and agrees to voluntarily assume any and all risks in any way related to exposure to any Communicable or Infectious Disease such as COVID-19, including illness, injury, or death of Guest or others. Guest acknowledges that participation in a Journey is entirely voluntary. By participating in a Journey, Guest attests that Guest is knowledgeable about his or her individual risk of developing severe illness if Guest is exposed to and/or infected with highly contagious or communicable illnesses or diseases such as COVID-19. Guest must make an informed decision about travelling and is strongly encouraged to consult with a medical provider before deciding to participate in a Journey based on Guest’s individual risk.

A&K reserves the right to change any of its health and safety protocols, including, but not limited to, requirements on vaccinations, masks, and physical distancing at its sole discretion, without notice. It is your sole responsibility to confirm any changes to any health and safety protocols that may be applicable at any destination worldwide and ensure compliance with all health and safety protocols.

It is the responsibility of the Guest to become informed about the most current travel advisories and warnings by referring to the U.S. State Department or their respective government agencies. In the event of an active State Department or government agency travel warning against travel to the specific destination location(s) of the Journey, should the Guest still choose to travel, notwithstanding any travel advisory, the Guest assumes all risk of personal injury, death or property damage that may arise out of the events like those advised or warned against.

There are many inherent risks in adventure travel of the type involved here, which can lead to illness, injury, or even death.

Further, as consideration for being permitted to participate in the Activities; you release the A&K Parties, whether known or unknown, from, and agree not to sue or make claim against the A&K Parties for, property damage, cancellation of any Activities for any reason, illness, negligent rescue operations or procedures, personal injury, or death arising out of your participation in the Activities, and any activity related thereto, including transportation to and from the site of the Activities, regardless of whether such property damage, illness, personal injury, or death results from the negligence of the A&K Parties and/or from any defect in equipment. You further agree to indemnify and hold the A&K Parties harmless with respect to any claim made against the A&K Parties by anyone else (a) related to your participation in any trip or any Activities, or (b) which would be subject to the above release and covenant not to sue if you had made the claim directly yourself. Upon receipt of notice of the assertion of a claim, the A&K Parties reserve the right to approve, or withdraw approval of, counsel, in its sole discretion.

IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS ON THE COMPANY’S LIABILITY
Nothing in these T&C shall limit or deprive A&K of the benefit of any applicable statutes or laws of the United States of America or any other country; or any international convention providing for release from, or limitation of, liability. In the event multiple statutes, laws or conventions may apply, A&K shall be entitled to any or all such limitations unless there is a conflict between such statutes, laws or conventions, in which case A&K shall be entitled to invoke the limitation which provides the most favorable limitation to A&K.

(B) Small Claims under $8,000
Any and all disputes, claims, or controversies whatsoever whether brought based on contract, tort, statutory, constitutional or other legal rights, including but not limited to alleged violation of civil rights, discrimination, consumer or privacy laws, or for any losses, damages or expenses, relating to or in any way arising out of, related to, or connected with these T&C and the booking of the Tour, no matter how described, pleaded or styled, between Guest and A&K in which Guest or any other claimant asserts damages for less than $8,000 (excluding attorney fees, costs, and interest, which are not included to determine the amount at issue) must be litigated, if at all, before a small claims court located in DuPage County, Illinois, U.S.A. to the exclusion of the courts of any other county, state or country. Guest hereby consents to such exclusive jurisdiction and waives any jurisdictional, venue or other objection that may be otherwise available.

(C) Arbitration for All Claims Over $8,000
Any and all disputes, claims, or controversies whatsoever whether brought based on contract, tort, statutory, constitutional or other legal rights, including but not limited to alleged violation of civil rights, discrimination, consumer or privacy laws, or for any losses, damages or expenses, relating to or in any way arising out of or connected with these T&C and the booking of the Tour, no matter how described, pleaded or styled, between Guest and A&K, in which Guest or any other claimant asserts damages for more than $8,000.00 (excluding attorney fees, costs, and interest, which are not included to determine the amount at issue) shall be referred to and resolved exclusively by binding arbitration pursuant to the united nations convention on the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards (New York 1958), 21 U.S.T. 2517, 330 U.N.T.S. 3, 1970 U.S.T. LEXIS 115, 9 U.S.C. §§ 202-208 ("the Convention") and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1, et seq., ("FAA") solely in DuPage County, Illinois, U.S.A. to the exclusion of any other forum. Guest hereby consents to such exclusive jurisdiction and waives any jurisdictional, venue or other objection that may be available to any such arbitration proceeding in DuPage County, Illinois. The arbitration shall be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation ("NAM") under its comprehensive dispute resolution rules and procedures and the fee schedule in effect at the time of initiating the proceeding with NAM, which are deemed to be incorporated herein by reference. Each party shall bear their own costs and fees associated with any such filing. If Guest has a question about the arbitration process or wants to obtain a current copy of the comprehensive dispute resolution rules and procedures and/or fee schedule, guest may contact NAM at: National Arbitration and Mediation, attention claims department, 990 Stewart Street, First Floor, Garden City, NY 11530, telephone number (800) 358-2550. Neither party will have the right to a jury trial or to engage in pre-arbitration discovery except as provided in the applicable arbitration rules and herein, or otherwise to litigate the claim in any court (other than small claims court in DuPage County, Illinois). The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding.

(D) Jurisdiction, Venue and Jury Trial Waiver
Except as provided above and only of the above-referenced arbitration clause is ruled unenforceable by a court of law, it is agreed by and between Guest and A&K that all disputes and matters whatsoever related to, arising under, in connection with or incident to these T&C, shall be litigated, if at all, before the United States District Court For The Northern District of Illinois in Chicago or as to those lawsuits to which the Federal Courts of the United States lack subject matter jurisdiction, before a court located in DuPage County, Illinois, U.S.A. to the exclusion of the courts of any other county, state or country. Guest hereby consents to such exclusive jurisdiction and waives any jurisdictional, venue or other objection that may be available. If a matter is brought in the federal courts of the United States and no diversity jurisdiction exists, then the matter must proceed under the court's admiralty jurisdiction and Guest may not be allowed a trial by jury. If a matter proceeds under the court's admiralty jurisdiction, then carrier consents to a trial by jury pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 39(C). Guest Acknowledges and Understands that a federal court presiding over the matter under admiralty jurisdiction may not grant a trial by jury despite A&K and Guest's request for a trial by jury, and in such event, Guest knowingly and voluntarily waives a trial by jury.

(E) Arbitration Rules and Jury Trial Waiver
Neither party will have the right to a jury trial or to engage in pre- arbitration discovery except as provided in the applicable arbitration rules and herein, or otherwise to litigate the claim in any court. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding. Other rights that Guest or carrier would have in court also may not be available in arbitration. An award rendered by an arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction under the Convention or FAA. Carrier and Guest further agree to permit the taking of a deposition under oath of Guest asserting the claim, or for whose benefit the claim is asserted, in any such arbitration. In the event this provision is deemed unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction for any reason, then and only then the provisions of section 23(d) above governing venue and jurisdiction shall exclusively apply to any lawsuit involving claims described in this clause.

(F) Governing Law
A&K bookings are deemed to be contracts made in the state of Illinois and are governed by Illinois law.

(G) Class Action Waiver
Guest hereby agrees that these T&C provide for the exclusive resolution of disputes through individual legal action on each Guest's behalf rather than any class, collective or representative action. Guest may only bring claims against A&K Guest's individual capacity. Even if the applicable law provides otherwise, Guest agrees that any arbitration or lawsuit against A&K whatsoever shall be litigated by Guest individually and not as a member of any class or as part of a class or representative or action, and Guest expressly agrees to waive any law entitling Guest to participate in a class action. If Guest's claim is subject to arbitration as provided in section above, the arbitrator shall have no authority to arbitrate claims on a class action basis. Guest agrees that this section shall not be severable under any circumstances from the arbitration clause set forth above, and if for any reason this class action waiver is unenforceable as to any particular claim, then and only then such claim shall not be subject to arbitration. The validity and effect of this class action waiver may be determined only by a judge or court of law and not by an arbitrator. Guest agrees that carrier can receive immediate judicial assistance to enforce this class action waiver.

(H) Claims for Emotional Distress
A&K shall not be liable to Guest for any emotional distress, mental anguish or psychological injury of any kind, except where said emotional distress, mental anguish or psychological injury was the result of either (a) physical injury to Guest caused by the negligence or fault of A&K or (b) Guest having been at actual risk of physical injury and such risk was caused by the negligence or fault of A&K.

(I) Claims of Improper Performance or Breach of the Contract
A&K's liability for improper performance or breach of the Contract shall be limited to a maximum of two times the price which Guest paid for their Tour Package.

(J) No Consequential, Indirect or Punitive Damages
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in these T&C, in no event shall A&K or its members, partners, shareholders, directors, officers, managers, employees or agents be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental or punitive damages (including but not limited to damages for lost profits, loss of revenue, loss of use, loss of contract or other opportunity, for any other consequential or indirect loss or damage of a similar nature) arising out of the transaction contemplated herein.
