Embarkation and maritime carriage conditions

• General rules7.1 The Traveller must report for embarkation in line with the terms set out in the PassengerTicketand at least two hours before the ship’s scheduled departure time. The PassengerTicket and/or Cruise Ticket issued by CDP are only valid for the Cruise and ship mentioned on the ticket.7.2 The purpose of the PassengerTicket is to transport Travellers andtheir luggage from embarkation at the departure port to disembarkation at the destination.7.3 All Travellers must have a valid passport, or identity card if appropriate, valid for six months after their return date, as well as visas and vaccination certificates as these may be required at the ship’s ports of call and arrival. Every Traveller is personally responsible for complying with legal and regulatory requirements before departure. The Carrier, Cruise Organiser and/or CDP and/or Captain can deny embarkation or disembarkation to any Travellers without the correct documents authorising them to disembark at the scheduled arrival point and ports of call.7.4 If a Traveller who has booked a port-port Cruise organises their own air or land transport to the embarkation point and/or from the disembarkation point back to their home, it is stronglyrecommended that they buy tickets that can be amended and refunded, and allow sensible train station/airport/port transfer time. If there are delays, cancellationsor changes, CDP will not cover transport or Transfer costs, or any other type of service outside the Cruise Ticket provisions and not bought direct from CDP. CDP is not responsible for any incidents or accidents involving property or persons that arise en route to/from the ship.7.4.1 For Ocean Voyages: to make sure you are ready for embarkation on the day of departure, we would encourage you to spend the previous night in the departure city. Similarly, with regards to disembarkation, we would also strongly suggest booking a flight the day after arrival. These often-long sea voyages are more affected by weather conditions, including wind and currents, than any other type of trip. This may mean bringing sailing times forward and/or delaying the ship’s arrival.7.5 Each Traveller guarantees that they are fit to travel by sea and that their health and conduct will notharm other Travellers or the smooth running of the Services agreed and/or offered. If a Traveller’s health is likely to limit their ability to carry out the Services agreed, or may disrupt them, they must warn CDP and provide a medical certificate on request to prove their fitness. Any known health problems must be reported in writing at the Acceptance of the Contract, or at the latest before the ship’s departure (or before the Services begin) to the CDP medical service.7.6 Medical consultations, care and medication on land and on board the ship are the responsibility of the Traveller. All Travellers must ensure that they have appropriate medical insurance coverage.7.7 If there is an epidemic risk, the Carrier, Cruise Organiser, CDP, ship Captain or any local health authority can require Travellers to complete a health questionnaire and, where appropriate, a screening test before or on embarking or disembarking, including during stopovers.7.8 For Expedition Cruise programmes, where, as stated, medical facilities are several days’sailing away, a compulsory full medical questionnaire (provided at the Acceptance of the Contract) must be filled in by the Traveller’s General Practitioner between 90 and 45 days before the start of the Service. This document must be returned by post or email to the CDP medical department (qm@medical.ponant.com) no later than 40 days before the Services begin. Medical certificates dated before this period will not be valid. Self-certification is not permitted. Any Traveller who does not return their completed compulsory medical certificate will be denied embarkation and will not receive any refund.7.9 Travellers must behave in a disciplined way throughout the trip. Travellers must attend any safety demonstration or explanation organised on board and follow crew instructions at all times.7.10 The Carrier, Cruise Organiser, CDP and/or ship Captain may, if they deem it necessary, terminate the contract and refuse to carry any Traveller not complyingwith the entry requirements for destination port countries, or whose presence on board couldnegatively impact the comfort, health or safety of other Travellers, the crew, or be counter to the laws and regulations of ports visited by the ship, or who could make the Carrier, Cruise Organiser and/or CDP responsiblefor their protection or repatriation. For these reasons, the Cruise Organiser, Carrier and/or CDP and/or the ship Captain may decide to take the following appropriate measures: 1) Forbid the Traveller(s) from embarking or disembarking at any port visited by the ship; 2) Make the Traveller(s)disembark at any port visited by the ship; 3) Transfer the Traveller(s) to another ship; 4) Confine the Travellers(s) on board in their stateroomor the medical service stateroom; 5) Have the doctor or their team administer any drug, medicine or other substance permitted

and/or confine the Traveller to a hospital or a similar institution at the destination ports if the on board doctor deems it necessary.• Disabled Persons and Persons with Reduced Mobility7.11 For safety reasons, every Traveller must be independentor travel with someone who can provide all the assistance they need during the Services period.7.12 Travellerswith limited mobility due to a physical disability or a condition requiring special treatment and/or specific assistance, including wheelchair users, must warn CDP in writing when requesting a booking or when the Traveller becomes aware of their disability if it takes effect after booking, but in any case at least 30 days before the Service starts so that CDP is able to confirm that the Traveller can physically undertake the Cruise on board the ship and/or the Services agreed.7.13 The Cruise Organiser, Carrier and/or CDP and/or Captain reserve the right to deny access to Travellers who have not informed CDP or the Seller of a disability or a need for assistance where the latter are not compatible with safety rules and regulations in the sailing area, or would require care that CDP and/or the Carrier cannot provide, or if the design of the passenger ship, infrastructure and port equipment, including port terminals, would make embarkation, disembarkation and transporting the person concerned in satisfactorilysafe conditions impossible.7.14 Going ashore can be difficult or impossible for Travellers withreducedmobility or disabled Travellers, particularly when disembarking on a launch and/or going out on excursions in Zodiac® inflatable boats.7.15 Travellers using a wheelchair, having gained CDP’s written agreement, must embark with their own wheelchair and be accompanied by someone who can assistthem at any time. In any case, every disembarkation is subject to the Captain’s approval.7.16 Le Boréal, L’Austral, Le Soléal, Le LyrialandLe Commandant-Charcoteach have three staterooms specially equipped for disabled persons or persons with reduced mobility (two stateroomsfor PONANT EXPLORERS ships; one stateroomfor the MS Paul Gauguin).

In any case, it is recommended that pregnant women hoping to travel on a ship consult a doctor before departure to ensure that their health is compatible with the proposed cruise.Moreover, no pregnant woman will be allowed to embark on cruises to Antarctica, of the North-West Passage or on Ocean Voyages.7.22 On the MS Paul Gauguin, all children aged under 18 must be accompanied by an adult aged over 21. If the person accompanying is not the child’s parent, a “Parental Consent”form must be sent to PONANT.• Permitted baggage7.21 Every Traveller must correctly and clearly label each piece of luggage with their full name, the ship name, their destination and their stateroomnumber.

Theyare solely liable for any fines or penalties imposed as a result by competent authorities.7.25 The Traveller agrees —immediately when requested to do so —to provide the Cruise Organiser, Carrier, crew officers and/or CDP with full access to their stateroom, luggage and personal belongings.

Should this change after the Acceptance of the Contract, CDP undertakes to communicate any changes to the identity of the Air Carrier(s) as soon as it becomes aware of them before departure.8.3 Airlines can have code-share agreements whereby two or more share the same flight,with one being the named airline and the other operating the flight with its own aeroplane.8.4 “Direct flight” means no aircraft changes butdoes not preclude the possibility of one or several stops. “Non-stop direct flight” means no aircraft changes and no stops.8.5 The schedules and transport types mentioned by CDP are those provided by the Air Carriers.Therefore, they are indicative until departure and subject to amendment for a variety of reasons (additional stops, atmospheric conditions, air traffic permissions, strikes, etc.). In accordance with the Warsaw and Montreal Conventions, flight schedules and routes, and departure airports and destination airports are never contractual elements of the Travel Ticket and as a result CDP cannot be held responsible for these changes beyond its control.8.6 Any technical, climatic or political incident, delay, cancellation or strike, additional stop, change of aeroplane, change of route, etc. that arises while air transport is being provided cannot be blamed on CDP and cannot give rise

to compensation for any reason. If the Traveller wishes to forfeit the benefit of a Service, they will be liable for the cancellation charges shown below.8.7 The Air Carrier’s liability is limited in the case of damages, complaints or claims of any kind in accordance with the Airline Ticket terms. CDP will not reimburse any expenses (taxis, meals, hotels, etc.) once the Traveller becomes the Air Carrier’s responsibility. The consequences of accidents/incidents that may occur during air transport are governed by the Warsaw and Montreal Conventions, or by local regulations governing national transport in the country concerned.8.8 On scheduled international flights, depending on the Air Carrier, the general baggage allowance (excluding benefits for loyalty programme members) is strictly limited to 23 kg maximum in the hold and 8 kg maximum per Traveller in the cabin. On scheduled domestic flights, the allowance is generally between 15 and 20 kg maximum in the hold. On flights chartered by CDP, the hold baggage allowance is 23 kg (subject to confirmation by the Air Carrier selected) and 5 kg maximum per piece of cabinbaggage. Travellers should pack carefully with these restrictions in mind. Air Carriers will not hesitate to bill for excess baggage and sometimes refuse to check in overly heavy or bulky luggage for stringent security reasons. CDP and the Air Carrier cannot be held responsible if a Traveller is denied check-in due to their baggage being too heavy.9. Transfer of the Contract9.1 In accordance with Article R.211-7 of the French Tourism Code, and only where this code applies to CDP, the Traveller can transfer their Contract to a third party whofulfils the same conditions as they do for all Services, as long as the latter have not yet begun.9.2 The transferor and transferee must inform CDP of this decision by any means that allows for acknowledgement of receipt (registered letter, email, fax, etc.) no later than 10 business days before the start of the Services. After this, charges may apply.9.3 Should the Traveller transfer their Contract without informing CDP in line with the process set out above, this assignment will not be valid,and the Services covered in the Contract will be cancelled without any refund.10.
