COVID-19 Refund Guarantee

BOOK WITH CONFIDENCE - Except as otherwise set out below Grand Prix Travel^® (GPT) will provide clients with a refund of monies paid for all unused services* in a circumstance where that client's booking is affected by COVID-19 in any of the following ways:

• Where the Formula 1^® Heineken Australian Grand Prix 2022 (Event) is cancelled or rescheduled as a direct result of COVID-19.
• Where the grandstand capacity at the Event is adjusted by the Australian Grand Prix Corporation (AGPC), State, Territory and /or Australian Federal Government social distancing restrictions, and as a result of this adjustment to grandstand capacity, you are not permitted to attend;
• Where State, Territory and/or Australian Federal border closures after you have purchased your package render it not possible for you to attend the Event and you can provide evidence of such at the request of AGPC and GPT. Clients seeking a refund in this case must notify GPT at least 7 days before the first day of the Event.

A refund for the Event ticket portion of the package is also available in the following cases:

• A client is required to self-isolate or quarantine (and the Event falls within the isolation / quarantine period) due to i. testing positive for COVID-19; or ii. having close contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19;
• A client is i. feeling unwell with COVID-19 Symptoms; and ii. has been tested for COVID-19; and iii. is awaiting test results (and the Event falls within the period of awaiting test results);

Clients seeking a refund in the above two cases must notify GPT and AGPC of their need to cancel their Event ticket and obtain a refund at least 24 hours before the first day of the Event, and provide evidence of this need at the request of AGPC and GPT.

*Should any of the above circumstances occur after you have checked into your hotel and you check out of the hotel, please note, certain hotels reserve the right to charge a one (1) night cancellation fee.

For the avoidance of doubt, note the following does not qualify you for a refund of your package:

• A requirement for you to quarantine in your home State after travelling to the Event.
• Border closures and/or travel restrictions in non-Australian jurisdictions. Should clients be affected by overseas border closures and/or travel restrictions, these will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
• Cancellation requests for any other reason. Travel insurance is recommended.

Where a booking is cancelled by GPT due to COVID-19 and GPT is unable to obtain a refund for package components from a third party service provider or venue, including in respect of the souvenir merchandise (where applicable), no refund will be provided for such package components. If no refund is provided in respect of souvenir merchandise (where applicable), the merchandise order will be fulfilled.
