Below are some key details to note as you make your bookings:
FAMs are a wonderful addition to our event. Due to limited number of availability, cabins will be booked ona first-come, first-served basis.
If you are sharing a cabin with another person, for accommodations or post-cruises, only one of you needs to book. You will list the second person, whether they are attending the conference or not, as your guest.
Duplicate bookings with your guest will be automatically canceled.
Once you make your cabin selection and save it to your ASTA registration, please assume you are confirmed.
The cruise line you selected will be following up with you in early November, after registration closes, to collect additional demographic details and payment.
Cabins are booked on a first come first served basis. When inventory sells out, please note additional accommodations are provided at the Hilton Vienna Waterfront.
Registration for both accommodations onboard and post-cruise FAMs close on November 1, 2024. Changes will not be accepted after this point.

Airlines and hotels, and other suppliers of travel services have their own changes and cancellation penalties. For example, change or cancellation of flights and other transport costs can result in 100% cancellation charges irrespective of the date of cancellation. A single person supplement will be payable if a cabin or hotel room is occupied by only one person except where 100% cancellation charges have been paid by the person cancelling. Your decision not to take all or part of the trip due to ‘Government’ or ‘Official’ warnings or advisories, fear of travel, or any other reason will be deemed a cancellation. If a flight or other delay for any reason prevents you from using the trip on the trip start date and time, you will be considered a no-show, and we cannot provide a full or partial refund or credit toward a future trip.
