Reservations at reduced and early-bird (hence non-refundable) rates are subject to different cancellation and payment conditions. Your credit card is charged the total amount at the time of booking. This amount is not refunded if you change or cancel your reservation, and cannot be transferred to another reservation. We recommend taking out a cancellation insurance.
