Ships can be moored side by side, making it necessary for the passenger to cross from one vessel to another with gaps in between them to get to the shore. In such cases, clients must take special care when crossing and do this at their own risk. Crew assistance will be given to those needing and requesting it. 
The captain reserves the right to change and modify the route due to weather conditions and conditions in the ports visited. The order of visits may be different from what is published in case ports are overly crowded and to give the customer a better experience overall.
