Motörhead’s Motörboat Terms & Conditions Are Subject To Change At Any Time
Last Revised (May 11, 2015)

Please read the following Terms and Conditions BEFORE you book your cabin on the cruise. These documents contain important limitations on your rights. These are legally binding documents. This document contains additional contractual terms, conditions, and limitations between you, Motörhead’s Motörboat, LLC, ASK4 Entertainment, LLC, and Whet Travel, Inc. (“Motörhead’s Motörboat” or “MB″ or “Cruise”), or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and contractors (collectively referred to herein as the “Released Parties”), with respect to this cruise beyond the terms and conditions described in the Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL) Passenger Contract (“NCL Passenger Contract“).

All references to “Guest” shall have the same meaning as “Passenger” for purposes of this Contract and shall include each person listed on a Ticket Contract and each person, other than MB-ASK4-Whet personnel, NCL personnel, and performing artists and artist personnel, who embarks on the Cruise or attends any Cruise or Cruise related event, whether or not listed on a Cruise Ticket Contract. All terms shall be considered gender neutral and pronouns shall refer to the masculine and feminine as context requires.

Ticket Contract

By making this reservation, or by acceptance and/or use of the NCL Passenger Contract, the person named thereon as Guests, each passenger and guest on the same reservation, acknowledges he or she has read, and understands each and every term, condition, and provision of the NCL Passenger Contract and agrees to be bound thereby. In addition, by making this reservation or by the acceptance and/or use of the NCL Passenger Contract by the persons named as Guests, it shall be deemed to bear acceptance and agreement by each and every person to all the additional Terms and Conditions set forth herein.

Guest acknowledges and expressly agrees MB (and its affiliates) are acting solely in their capacity as tour operators, brokers and independent contractors arranging this cruise and that MB has no right or ability to control or direct the operational or navigational activities of the vessel or crew in any manner whatsoever whether aboard the ship or ashore including without limitation persons furnishing services to the vessel or to the guests including shoreside excursions, personnel, or contractors, embarkation and disembarkation to and from the vessel, the condition of the vessel and its equipment.

All rights, defenses, disclaimers and limitations of liability set forth herein shall inure to the benefit of MB, and all concessionaires, independent contractors or other providers of any services or facilities in connection with or incident to the Guest’s cruise, as well as any of their affiliated or related companies, parents, subsidiaries, successors, assigns or fictitiously named entities; and all suppliers, shipbuilders, component part manufacturers; and their owners, operators, managers, charterers, agents, pilots, officers, crew, employees and vessels. Neither MB, nor any of its employees have any authority to change, modify, alter or suspend any of the provisions of the Contract between the Guest and NCL which shall govern the relationship between Guest and Norwegian Cruise Lines exclusively.

Nature Of The Cruise

Motörhead’s Motörboat 2015 is an event cruise featuring multiple headline musicians. Nothing contained herein is intended to be, nor shall it be construed as a right or guarantee to specifically attend any particular concert on any particular date to be performed by any particular artist. MB-ASK4 and Guest agree that Guest is purchasing passage on board a specific vessel during a specific period of time during which time it is anticipated that headline musicians will perform multiple concerts on board the vessel during the Cruise. Included in such purchase price, but ancillary thereto, is an entertainment package pursuant to which several artists will perform at a time or times during the Cruise which times will be announced prior to sailing and/or during the Cruise. While every effort is made by MB-ASK4 to avoid conflicting events and performances, MB-ASK4 cannot guarantee that any Guest will be able to attend every performance aboard the Cruise. It is also anticipated individual musicians will attend publicity and promotional events during the Cruise while on board to provide Guests an opportunity to meet the musicians in person. However, MB-ASK4 can make no guarantee that any guest will in fact be able to meet any of the musicians in person during the Cruise or during any shore excursion.

Cruise Fare

Includes all Motörhead’s Motörboat talent/entertainment related fees, your accommodations on-board the ship, all meals in the main dining room(s) and cafeteria, other casual dining throughout the day, non-carbonated beverages (coffee, tea, juices, etc), 24-hour room service (a convenience charge of up to $7.95 will be added to each order), use of the ship’s pools, health and fitness centers.

Gratuities for ship staff of $13.05 per guest per day will be added to your onboard spending account at the end of the cruise.

You are obligated for the full cruise fare and fees of the occupancy level you select during the reservation process, even should you not provide additional guest information to us.

All prices are subject to change and are based on availability. All rates are per person.

Government Taxes & Fees

Mandatory Government Taxes and Fees totaling $225.00 (USD) will be charged with the balance due on your cabin. These charges are in addition to the Cruise fare and may include, but are not limited to, passenger facility charges, security surcharges, international passenger departure or arrival tax, customs user fee, immigration fee and agricultural inspection fee, and miscellaneous ticking fees.

In the event that the cost of fuel increases between now and the time we sail, NCL reserves the right to impose a fuel surcharge of up to $10.00 per person per day. NCL also reserves the right to impose surcharges for government taxes and fees, security, and incidental costs. The surcharges will be added to the passenger’s cabin costs and must be paid in full by the cruise date in order to board the ship. All passengers will be notified via email if such fuel surcharge is added to the cost of your cabin.

Single Guests

All cabin deposits are based on a minimum of double occupancy. Single guests are responsible for the full double-occupancy rate of their cabin. Single guests will receive a discount of $199 off of the second cruise fare. In all cases, single guests will only be charged one add-on fee of $225 for taxes and fees.

Child Rates

Children 12 years old or younger, booked in staterooms as the 3rd, 4th, or 5th guests, with 2 full-fare adults at the double occupancy rate, may sail for only taxes and fees ($225.00). If a child under 12 is booked as the 2nd guest in the cabin, the full 2nd adult fare still applies, plus taxes and fees.

Guests making their reservations online, will need to book their staterooms at the total occupancy level for all guests, including children. For instance, if 2 adults and 2 children will occupy the cabin, then a Quad cabin must be booked. Upon completion of the online reservation, guests should contact the ASK4 Reservations team at Whet Travel, by calling 877-GET-WHET (438-9438), or by emailing motorboat@whettravel.com in order to have their child rates adjusted, and the adult rate based on the double occupancy rate.

Name Changes, Transfers & Fees

The guest who places a reservation for a cabin onboard Motörhead’s Motörboat will be considered that cabin’s “Lead Guest” and is the “owner” of the reservation. The Lead Guest is therefore solely responsible for initiating or authorizing changes to the reservation, and must agree in writing to any changes made to the reservation, by emailing motorboat@whettravel.com

All guest NAME and CABIN NUMBER changes can be made up until 30 days prior to sailing (if allowed by the cruise line), and will be assessed the following administrative fees per name change:

$50.00 for name and cabin changes through final payment date of June 24, 2015

The Lead Passenger is not allowed to change their name within the reservation. At least one original and/or lead guest name must remain on the reservation. If all original guests cancel, this is considered a full cancellation without refund, and name changes will not be allowed.

In all cases of name changes, the NEW guest must make full payment. Once that payment has been made, then the applicable amounts paid by the ORIGINAL guest will be refunded directly to the original guest, less the cost of the name change fee.

All cabin reservation cancellations are non-refundable for any amount or any reason, and forfeits all payments.
