Q&As

We ask that all guests please read our Q&As to answer many questions in regards to traveling and logistics. Additionally, our Just Book It Travel Coordinators, are available to answer any of your questions and assist with booking the best deal for you! 

Q. Can I bring a plus one?

Please check your invite for plus one information!

Q. Can I bring more guests than my invite states?

You are more than welcome to bring additional travel companions and friends to enjoy the vacation with us, however, the wedding event itself is invitation-only. Just Book It Travel can arrange travel for these additional friends and family members coming to vacation, but not attending the actual ceremony and reception.

Q. What are the suggested travel dates?

If you wish to attend all the wedding festivities, we recommend staying 3 nights (Oct 13 to Oct 16). However, feel free to vacation for as long as you'd like. Just Book It Travel can arrange for your extended stay. We will be staying through Oct 18th.

Q. When is the RSVP date?

The resort has limited availability (due to social distancing and other factors); therefore, we are asking for family and close friends to RSVP by making a $50 per person deposit before October 31, 2021 to be added to our reserved room block and group activities.

Q. What is the payment schedule?

Deposit Due - non-refundable deposit, $50 per person - Anytime before October 31, 2021

Final Balance Due - Anytime before May 15, 2022

*Travel protection is recommended. All payments are non-refundable after May 15, 2022

Q. What is the cancellation policy?

The $50 deposit is non-refundable.  We strongly recommend that each guest purchase Trip Protection from any trusted supplier. Final balances are due May 15, 2022. All rooms are under 100% cancellation following May 15, 2022 and any applicable refunds must be requested from your travel protection supplier. 

Example 1: Guest pays balance in full prior to May 15, 2022 and cancels prior to May 15, 2022 The $50 deposit is non-refundable. All other partial payments will be refunded. (Please file a claim directly with your Trip Protection provider for any non-refundable fees)

Example 2. Guest pays balance in full prior to May 15, 2022 and cancels following May 15, 2022. All payments are non-refundable following May 15th, 2022. (Please file a claim directly with your Trip Protection provider for any non-refundable fees)

Q. When should I book my flight? What is the best way to find good flight deals?

We suggest that each guest book their flights sooner rather than later. The later guests wait to book their flights, the higher the risk for future cancellation or flight price increases. All guests must input their flight details HERE. Just Book It Travel will arrange private transportation for the group. If flight details are not provided 30 days prior to departure, guests will be responsible for securing their own transportation. 

 

We suggest setting up flight alerts. Our favorite is Google flights because it includes a wider range of airlines. Use search engines to find the best deal, but remember to book the flight itself directly via the airline to maximize your flexibility if your plans were to change.  Fore more information visit our blog: 5 Tips - Finding the Best Flight Deals

Q. Which airport I should arrive/depart ?

When searching for flights, the airport you are flying to is Cancun International Airport (CUN). 

Q. How do I get from the airport to the resort?

We highly recommend to secure your transportation in advance. You can get taxis or shuttle transportation at the airport/resort but they are usually more expensive when buying directly on the same day. 

Pricing for your group for round Trip Transportation from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the airport are:

  • Private Transportation: $35 per person (min 2 people) - direct service, only guests from the wedding group will be transported in the same vehicle (Recommended)

Q. Do I have to book with Just Book It Travel??  

Yes, we request that all guests only utilize our dedicated planner and travel coordinators, Kiani & Lulu, as it will help us to keep the entire group organized and included in our planned group activities and informed of logistics and frequent updates. Everyone will receive a group discount, so you’ll always pay less than the internet by using Just Book It Travel, and most importantly, you will receive concierge level service from them.  Additionally, Just Book It Travel has flexible payment plans, making your travel arrangements even more affordable and convenient. If you've ever tried to contact an online travel company to make changes or cancellations, you'll appreciate the benefit of using a local, boutique travel agency (especially during times of uncertainty).

Q. Can I upgrade my room?

Absolutely! As long as the resort has availability for your travel dates. See the Pricing page for rooms that we have pre-selected in our room block. If you wish to book a different room category, please indicate your desired room on your reservation form. Just Book It Travel will contact you with pricing and next steps.

Q. Can I confirm my bedding selection (One King or Two Queens) in advance?

Unfortunately, no. Bedding will be requested to the resort in advance. However, bedding and rooms are assigned at check-in and is not guaranteed.

​​

Q. What if my potential travel companion (roomie) is TBD, unknown at this time, or not ready to book?

Time waits for no one :) Book without them and add them to your reservation at a later time. Since prices and availability are subject to change, be sure to reserve the room for just yourself and we can add them when they are ready. Solo occupancy hotel rates are sometimes higher than double occupancy. When we add your travel companion in the future, you'll recognize the double occupancy savings. Rates are refreshed at the time future changes are made.

We will keep the group posted of any and all updates as it relates to the latest COVID-19 entry and exit requirements within 90 days prior to departure (when final payments are due). Since the regulations change frequently, we will keep all guests updated and informed when it is closer to travel.
