The Advance Commission Program allows the participating agency set forth in the appropriate box below to receive the commission due for booking any Scenic or Emerald Cruises (river or ocean) within 21 days of funds being received by Scenic Group. This program commences on July 1, 2022 and ends on December 31, 2024, at which time the Scenic Group may extend or discontinue the program in its sole discretion. In the event the Scenic Group extends the program, the participating agency will be required to opt into the extended program.
By filling out the information below and checking the box acknowledging that “I agree to all terms & conditions above and that I am authorized to enter into this agreement”, I agree that the following changes to Section 6 “The Payment” of my existing agency agreement with the Scenic Group shall be replaced and superseded and this language shall be treated as an integrated part of the existing agency agreement during the period of time in which I am opted into the program:
1. The agency opts into the program known as “Advance Commission Program”.
2. The agency is eligible to receive advance commission, whereby the commission must be at least six (6) months from the sailing.
3. If the booking is cancelled:
3.a. Subject to the cancellation policy within the standard booking Terms & Conditions, if the payment is made by the agency, Scenic will refund the agency the amount received net of commission paid to the agency.
3.b. Subject to the cancellation policy within the standard booking Terms & Conditions, if the payment is made by client directly to Scenic, Scenic will refund the client the amount received. Scenic will separately contact the agency to obtain the advanced commission to be returned to Scenic within 30 days of request.
i. The preferred method to obtain commissions back from the agency should a cancellation arise is repayment directly to Scenic. However, should repayment not be made to Scenic timely by the agency, Scenic reserves the right to withhold future commissions of equal value from the agency to cover this amount.
The Advance Commission Program is eligible for residents of the 50 United States of America & Washington D.C, for USD bookings and U.S. travel agencies only.
