Deposit, interest on overdue payments
We apply a deposit of EUR 15 on bookings through our call centre +46 (0)771-22 33 00. No deposit is charged for bookings over the Internet. Deposits paid late can mean that the booking is cancelled. For payment after the due date, interest on overdue payments and a reminder fee are charged.

A surcharge of EUR 8 applies when you pay by invoice. No charge is applied for e-mail invoices. You can only request an invoice when you book via our call centre.
Travel tickets
Changes and cancellations of travel tickets must be made directly to GPAB on phone +46 (0)771-22 33 00. Besides this, the transport company’s terms and conditions apply. A boat ticket with Destination Gotland in a package booking can be changed up until 28 days before departure.
Force Majeure
In cases where the journey cannot be undertaken because of an impediment outside the control of the organiser, which the organiser could not reasonably be expected to have anticipated when the contract was undertaken, and whose results the organiser could not reasonably have avoided or overcome, the organiser is free from liability for damages or other sanctions. The same applies if the cancellation of the journey is caused by someone the organiser has retained or someone else at an earlier stage.
We assume no liability for legislative and price changes that are outside our control.
