ARP – Arrival Airport

Available only on multi-day tours that involve flights, "Arrival Airport" is the departure point designation for guests that make their own flight arrangements (rather than booking the Group Airfare) to meet the tour director and begin their tour at the airport that the group is flying into. Due to the nature of air travel, it's recommended that these guests plan to arrive well ahead of the group's scheduled arrival time to account for delays. The tour director cannot wait at the arrival airport for guests who make their own flight arrangements. Regardless of the reason, should the guest(s) miss the transfer, the guest will need to make arrangements to catch up to the group at their own expense.
