WASHINGTON D.C
2020 TRIP CANCELLED
Dear Families,
For those of you who are scheduled to travel to DC/NY, I wanted to give you an update.
WorldStrides has suspended all travel in these areas until June 10. With this most recent news, our trip has been cancelled. I know we were all looking forward to traveling together and having an amazing experience. However, safety must come first.
After speaking with my representative at WorldStrides, I wanted to update you with what will happen going forward.
Please see the letter below.Families,
I want to thank you for your tremendous patience as we’ve navigated this situation with our partners at WorldStrides. I’ve just spoken with my contact there, and I hope you’ll be pleased with how they’ve cleared a path forward here that will better suit our families!
I know we’re all disappointed by the disruptions that COVID- 19 caused and missing the chance to travel together is just one thing that is making this time so hard. WorldStrides will honor the Full Refund Program, as we’ve already discussed. Here’s the change. For those who did not purchase FRP, you will also get a similar cash refund (including deposit), with an adjustment of $269 for just a small portion of WorldStrides’ unrecoverable costs. No action is required on your part to begin the refund process. Please note your exact refund amount may vary depending on what you’ve paid in toward your trip cost at this time. You can log-in to your account on MyTrip to view what you paid toward your trip. Fees are not refundable. If you need additional clarification, you can reach out directly to a special hotline for WorldStrides’ Customer Support at 800-468-5899.
Due to the high volume of refunds being processed, WorldStrides has asked for your understanding on timing. Families can expect to receive refunds in 6-8 weeks from your scheduled departure date.
The team at WorldStrides asked me to share their appreciation for your patience and understanding in these unprecedented times. We hope this change allows the organization to earn your trust going forward, as we continue to navigate this difficult time in our history together.
God Bless,
Valenzuela
