Payment Methods

2.1 A down payment of 25% of the travel price is due for payment following contract conclusion (receipt of the booking confirmation) and receipt of the risk coverage certificate pursuant to Section 651r BGB in conjunction with Article 252 EGBGB. When the down payment has been made, the full premium for an insurance policy brokered by A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH shall also fall due. Payment is made by credit card or transfer directly to A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH, depending on the payment method chosen by the customer. Unless expressly agreed otherwise with A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH, payments to intermediary travel agencies do not discharge the obligation to make payment. The outstanding amount shall fall due 30 days before the start of the trip insofar as the risk coverage certificate has been issued and A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH can no longer exercise its right of revocation for the reasons set out in 5.2. Where bookings are made within 30 days of the start of the trip, the travel price shall be due in full without delay insofar as the risk coverage certificate has been issued.

2.2. If the customer does not make the down payment and/or the outstanding payment by the agreed due dates, even though A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH is willing and able to duly render the contractual services and has fulfilled its statutory information obligations and the customer does not have a statutory or contractual right of retention, A-ROSA Flussschiff GmbH shall be entitled, after issuing a reminder and setting a final deadline, to cancel the travel contract and charge the customer cancellation costs as set out in 7.2 sentence 2 to 7.5.

2.3. After full payment for the cruise, but no earlier than three weeks before the start of the cruise, the customer will be issued with his or her travel documents.
