Travel Authorisation Refunds Now Underway
The Ministry of Health announced that Travel Authorisation [TA] refunds began on Monday, November 14.
A Government spokesperson said, “Refunding will happen chronologically, starting from the 14th and working towards the 30th. The refund process is expected to take 6 – 8 weeks.
“Travellers requiring a TA refund do not need to contact the TA helpdesk and should refrain from flagging their card transactions with their bank as this can potentially slow down the refund.”
“Those eligible are as follows:
- “1. Travellers who applied for arrival between November 14th, 2022 and November 30th, 2022
- “2. Oceania Sirena, which embarked on November 4th, 2022, and Norwegian Joy, embarking on November 12th, 2022
- “3. Two Norwegian Getaway Sails that were cancelled due to weather in September. They were scheduled to embark on September 3rd and 22, respectively.”
They should refund every TA form charge.
At lest go back to when GB, CA & the US dropped their special requirements. That would be early summer.
The fleecing of the travelling public has gone on far too long.
As a result of changes in travel policies related to COVID-19, the Bermuda Tourism Authority has initiated a refund process for travelers who were unable to travel to the country. Airline and hotel management will handle this process, and refunds will be processed via the original payment method.
