9. OFAC / TRADE SANCTION COUNTRIES
(a) The U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) administers a variety of trade embargoes and economic sanctions programs that are applied to some countries. Currently, the most restrictive measures are imposed against the following Sanctioned Countries: Cuba, Iran, Sudan, North Korea and Syria.
(b) U.S. law prohibits us from providing services and engaging in business transactions with individuals and entities located in or residents of these Sanctioned Countries. This prohibition also extends to doing business with Sanctioned Countries indirectly through third parties. This means we cannot, either directly or indirectly through a third-party market or sell vacations, make bookings, reserve tours or excursions, and provide other travel-related services to individuals or entities located in or residents of these Sanctioned Countries. To ensure compliance with these laws, we must adhere to these requirements. We know these restrictions can be challenging to our business because we operate in a global market, but as we continue to expand our operations we must maintain our vigilance in adhering to applicable trade sanctions laws.

An award rendered by an arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction under the convention or FAA. Passenger and Cabin Adventures further agree to permit the taking of a deposition under oath of the passenger asserting the claim, or for whose benefit the claim is asserted, in any such arbitration.
