Travel Arrangements:
You should begin making travel plans as soon as your place in the group
is reserved, and you should complete them upon being notified of your selection.
We strongly recommend that participants purchase travel insurance to cover
all needs including medical, accident, baggage loss, delays and personal
liability.
ArchaeoSpain and the University of Valladolid are not travel providers, nor are registered travel agents. Your travel arrangements to and from Spain are subject to the terms and conditions of your travel agency. In the rare event that the program is cancelled, ArchaeoSpain and the University of Valladolid will refund program fees, but is not responsible for non-refundable airline or other tickets or payments or any similar penalties that may be incurred. It is your responsibility to protect yourself against airline and travel agency cancellation fees.
Medical Insurance:
Participants are covered by an insurance policy through the University of Valladolid that provides medical and surgical treatment and prescription drugs in case of accident or sudden illness.
This
insurance has always been reliable and in the past it has worked well for
most unexpected illnesses or accidents. It is limited, though, so we recommend
that participants have some backup insurance so they can be covered in case
of more serious events. Please contact our staff for more information.
European students should bring an EHIC card with them.
Right of Refusal:
ArchaeoSpain and the University of Valladolid reserve the right to refuse an applicant's selection. This is a rare occurrence and is most likely due to a person's inability to meet health requirements or in the interest of group compatibility. Once in the field, the program director reserves the right to send a participant away from the program should that person's behavior compromise the safety, research objectives and general performance of the group, or violate Spanish laws, regulations or customs.
