Creator's Key Takeaways

The excursion reappeared not as a booking, but as an option to purchase. Except this time there's a catch. Instead of being $499, suddenly it's $799.

That is wrong. That is bait and switch and should never be done.

So yeah, this should never happen but it does.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check your credit card statements for cancellations.
Immediately go to guest services if an excursion is cancelled without notice.
