The date of departure from Hong Kong will be determined by the school.  Please note that if the Study Tour begins after July 10, the air fare will be more expensive, as the airline imposes an additional “high season” surcharge.

The date of departure from Camrose will be 14 days after the date of departure from Hong Kong.

Changes to the departure and return dates and times are at the discretion of the airline and are beyond the control of the Centre. If the airline changes the schedule, the Centre will make the final decision on a revised schedule. The decision by the Centre will be final, and will not be open to discussion/objection by parents or students. The Centre will assist students/parents with costs, should any additional transportation fees arise because of the changes.

If flights are delayed on the departure date because of adverse weather, such as a typhoon and/or black rain storm, parents will be kept informed of any alternate arrangements that are deemed necessary.

The Calgary Lifelong Learning Centre will select a qualified, licensed and experienced tour company, which will be responsible for arranging hotel accommodation, meals, sightseeing and transportation for the Vancouver and Rocky Mountains portion of the program, as well as the visits to Drumheller and the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village.

The Calgary Lifelong Learning Centre and the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus are responsible for the accommodations and meals at the residence of the Augustana Campus (Day 4 through Day 13) and also for the afternoon cultural activities and the volunteer services at the Bethany Senior Home. Following this, off-campus arrangements will be made by the Calgary Lifelong Learning Centre.
