SECTION 6 – DEPOSIT PRICING AND FINALIZATION Your charter reservation is not confirmed until You sign and return Your Charter Agreement to your respective Fantasy Inc representative and provide payment in full for Your Services.
Fantasy Inc may offer You the option to place a deposit, which allows You the ability to purchase Services at certain pricing (“Deposit Pricing”), subject to availability and Fantasy Inc’s Payment Plan Option (the “Payment Plan Option”) over a specified amount of time. Fantasy Inc’s Payment Plan Option allows You to purchase certain Services and pay for the total amount due (the “Balance”) over a specified amount of time (“Payment Plan Payments”). Further, by selecting the Payment Plan Option, You agree to and acknowledge the following:
“I authorize Fantasy Inc, it’s representatives and service providers, to initiate electronic charges from the account I designated at the time of purchase to make the Payment Plan Payments due under the Payment Plan Option on the dates designated by the Payment Plan Option I selected. Further, I understand that one missed payment may result in cancellation of the Services to be provided by Fantasy Inc, it representatives and service providers. Upon a missed payment, the Balance may be due immediately and Services will be subject to cancellation for non-payment by Fantasy Inc, it representatives or its service providers.”
Due to high demand and limited inventory, Your selected charter vessel and/or Services are subject to change (availability permitting) by Fantasy Inc until Your Balance is paid in full or until You are within accordance of the Payment Plan Option, if offered.
SECTION 7 - ACCURACY OF BILLING AND ACCOUNT INFORMATION We reserve the right to refuse any booking You place with Us. We may, in Our sole discretion, limit or cancel bookings per person, per household or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. In the event that We make a change to or cancel an order, We may attempt to notify You by contacting the e-mail and/or billing address/phone number provided at the time the order was made. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in Our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers or distributors of our Services.
You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made at Our store. You agree to promptly update Your account and other information, including Your email address and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that We can complete Your transactions and contact You as needed.
SECTION 8 - OPTIONAL TOOLS We may provide You with access to third-party tools over which We neither monitor nor have any control nor input.
You acknowledge and agree that We provide access to such tools ”as is” and “as available” without any warranties, representations or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement. We shall have no liability whatsoever arising from or relating to Your use of optional third-party tools.
Any use by You of optional tools offered through the site is entirely at Your own risk and discretion and You should ensure that You are familiar with and approve of the terms on which tools are provided by third-party provider(s).
We may also, in the future, offer new services and/or features through the website (including, the release of new tools and resources). Such new features and/or services shall also be subject to these Terms & Conditions.
SECTION 9 – WEATHER & CANCELLATION POLICY Cancellations fourteen (14) days or prior to your charter date can be completed on your customer portal and are subject to a 5% service fee. Cancellation requests within thirteen (13) days or less prior to your charter date are subject to a 50% cancellation fee and must be requested in writing via email to contact@windycitycruise.com. Please include the following information:
Charterer’s full name Organization name (if applicable) Scheduled date and time of charter Identify request for cancellation Reason for cancellation Please note that all rescheduled charterers are exempt from the above mentioned cancellation schedule (meaning that charterers may not reschedule a charter for a future date and cancel it 14 days or more out in order to receive a full refund).
All requests for refunds, cancellations, and changes must be made in writing by You/the Charterer. Requests submitted via telephone, text messaging, social media, or through a proxy (someone other than the Charterer) will not be accepted. Fantasy Inc is not responsible for late, lost, or communications which are not received. Only refunds and changes approved in writing by Fantasy Inc will be valid. We strongly recommend adding Fantasy Inc’s email to Your contacts list so as to prevent emails forwarding to spam.
Uncharterable Weather Conditions & Reschedulings: Uncharterable weather conditions are typically the result of (but are not limited to) heavy storms, small craft advisory warnings, gale storms, strong winds, and large waves. Light rain and passing storms are typically considered charterable.
In the case that conditions are deemed uncharterable, Fantasy Inc will issue a rescheduling credit to the Charterer valid for up to one year for a charter of equal or lesser value. The Charterer agrees to the terms as outlined in Section 9 and to reschedule any charter that was deemed uncharterable on their original scheduled Charter date. All rescheduled charterers are exempt from the above-mentioned cancellation schedule (meaning that Charterers may not reschedule a charter for a future date and cancel it 14 days or more out in order to receive a full refund).
Chargebacks: You agree and acknowledge that You are responsible for any chargebacks initiated by any of Your guests who make payments on Your behalf. Further, all payments made by You are non-refundable outside of the above-mentioned cancellation policy schedule as outlined in [Section 9]. You acknowledge and agree that We have devoted significant time and resources to plan, book, and organize the charter for You, and as such, any non-refundable payments made to Us are to compensate Us for such work, regardless of the reason for cancellation (outside of approved cancellation requests as outlined in [Section 9]).
Requested Changes & Captain Fees: Some changes to your charter may result in additional charges. You will be required to approve any such additional charges in writing and such charges must be made prior to the changes being made. If Your Captain requires or requests an additional fee for making a change, You will be responsible for transmitting payment directly to the Captain as the Captain is directly employed by You and not by Fantasy Inc. This supersedes any written language by Fantasy Inc allowing for a more favorable change policy.
Any cancellation fee is subject to offset of any damages or amounts owed to Us or third parties (i.e., amounts Fantasy Inc is not entitled to recover or which must be paid notwithstanding the cancellation). Refunds will not be available if You fail to show up for any aspect of Your Services booking for any reason, including without limitation, (1) a medical emergency; (2) claims of unused or unsatisfactory transportation; (3) claims of unused or unsatisfactory parking; (4) denied access to the docking harbor and/or docking location of the docking harbor; (5) denied Services because You failed to provide full and/or accurate personal information to Us, such as an acceptable form of ID or passport; (6) untimely requests for cancellation; and/or (7) unsatisfactory third-party Services, Captain, or suppliers. Available refunds may take up to fourteen (14) days (sometimes longer) after the scheduled charter for the refund to be processed by Us and received by You.
