Website terms

Ideas first, arrangements separately

These terms describe the use of chefinenary.com, a website presenting cruise inspiration under the Chefinenary name for an Australian audience. The pages help you explore travel styles, consider life on board and find contact details. They are not a live inventory, a reservation engine or a payment facility. Browsing the site or making an initial enquiry does not create a confirmed travel booking.

1. Contact details and the address

Chefinenary can be contacted on +61 2 9947 8000 or at 500 Oxford St, Bondi Junction NSW 2022, Australia. Please arrange the details of any visit before attending. The Bondi Junction address is for contact purposes and is not a cruise terminal. A specific departure requires separate confirmation of the port, terminal, boarding time and any transfers involved.

2. No live availability or advertised package price

Descriptions of possible experiences are starting points for a discussion. They do not confirm that a particular operator, ship, cabin or date is available. Request a complete written proposal before making a decision. It should identify the supplier, itinerary, category, inclusions, price, payment arrangements and relevant conditions. Do not rely on a general heading or photograph as a substitute for those details.

3. Illustrative images and editorial material

The photographs show imagined travel atmospheres and may represent different scenes. They do not document a single vessel or guarantee the facilities of a proposed departure. Cabin size, view, furnishings, restaurant access and entertainment spaces should be checked against the actual offer. The travel styles described on the site are ideas for comparing priorities, rather than fixed packages or a promise of a particular service level.

4. Routes, timing and optional activities

An actual itinerary may involve sea passages, ports and activities different from the broad themes described here. Ask about time ashore, how passengers disembark and whether excursions or transfers are included. Check optional costs and booking requirements before arranging additional transport or activities independently. Changes and disruptions must be considered with the relevant supplier and the conditions of the specific booking.

5. Cabin, dining and accessibility requirements

Raise requirements early and ask the operator for a specific answer. A general reference to comfort does not confirm a particular bed layout, step-free route or level of assistance. Similarly, a food photograph does not provide a complete ingredient or allergen statement. Dietary and accessibility needs should be checked for the actual service before you commit to travel.

6. Evening facilities

Any entertainment space described is dependent on the selected ship and departure. Access, age requirements, hours and separate charges may apply. Its presentation does not mean that entry or participation is part of every fare. The site provides no online play and accepts no game deposits or gaming-credit purchases. Direct questions about a ship’s rules to the relevant operator.

7. Documents and personal preparations

Travel requirements can depend on nationality, destination, route and individual circumstances. Check official information and the operator’s instructions for passports, visas and other documents. Allow enough time for your own arrangements and independently consider any insurance needs. General website content cannot determine whether a particular traveller will be permitted to board or enter a destination.

8. Changes, cancellations and consumer rights

Before booking, read the supplier’s change and cancellation terms and understand what happens if either party cannot proceed. Outcomes depend on the circumstances and applicable law. Nothing in these website terms excludes rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. Public guidance from the ACCC can help you understand travel disruption issues, but the details of your arrangement still need to be examined.

9. Use of content and technical availability

Please use the site and contact details for relevant, lawful enquiries. Do not interfere with the pages or attempt to access non-public resources. Viewing content does not grant a general right to reproduce or redistribute the photographs or text. Contact Chefinenary before reuse so the appropriate permissions can be checked. Site access depends on your connection, browser and the hosting service, and may be interrupted.

10. Corrections and updates

If you spot an error or need clarification, identify the relevant page and the information you are asking about. The date above indicates the version of these terms. Material may be updated as the site evolves. Separate booking terms govern an agreed travel arrangement and should be obtained and read before you commit, rather than inferred from these general website pages.
