    Important note about this trip: Even though this trip is 2 years out, it is an amazing opportunity that will fill up faster than you might think. Many consider a trip like this to be a "once in a lifetime" diving experience. It is almost impossible to get a group week on the Truk Odyssey, and the other two islands are described as "Fiji and Tahiti before the outside world arrived."  Don't miss this one.

    Terms & Conditions of Dive Travel

    • All group travel which includes air fare is subject to a minimum of 10 travelers booked by 91-days from date of departure.  Should the minimum not be met we will advise of the change in the air fare at that time. Should the air fare go up customers will be given the option to cancel.  However, a cancellation fell of $50 will apply.
    • Normally the number of seats booked for group air travel is limited. These seats will go on a first come basis.  Should all group seats sell out there may be an adder for the air portion.  So, book early!
    • Each resort offers various price levels of accommodations.  While we display the various pricing options all accommodations are based on a first come basis.
    • A single supplement charge will apply to all who travel alone. Usually, we can hook single travelers up with a roommate but cannot guarantee.  SS adders usually run about $375 but vary with resorts.

    • Normal deposit / payment schedules are as follows:
      • $100 deposit required to hold a spot and remember, the earlier you book the more likely you will get your choice of accommodations.  If you cancel 4 months prior to the travel date $50.00 of your deposit will be refunded.
      • 4 months prior to departure cash deposit must equal 25% of total trip cost
      • 3-months prior to departure: International air must be paid to avoid penalty.
