Share your ship name, arrival time and all-aboard time before booking; do not choose an afternoon session without checking that the full visit fits."

          "answer": "For planning, allow about an hour each way by road between the St John’s cruise port and Galleon Beach in English Harbour. This is a planning allowance, not a guaranteed transfer time. Traffic, your pickup point and port congestion can change the journey; confirm pickup and return timing with your driver or our team."

Book an earlier departure and allow time for disembarkation, both road journeys, the activity, the briefing and a generous return buffer. Traffic and ship schedules are outside our control, so we cannot give an unconditional return guarantee. Confirm the plan before booking if time is tight."

          "question": "How much time should I allow for a cruise-day visit?",
          "answer": "Allow 2½ hours at the activity, plus road travel in both directions and extra time for port procedures and delays. This visit allowance includes preparation and, for water activities, orientation and the safety briefing; do not add that briefing again. Larger groups may take longer for preparation and the tour. Choose an earlier departure and plan around your ship’s all-aboard deadline, allowing for any difference between ship time and Antigua local time."

          "question": "What is your cancellation policy?",
          "answer": "All activities have a 48-hour cancellation policy. Cancel at least 48 hours before your scheduled start time for a full refund. Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the start time are charged 100%, except when weather prevents an affected snorkeling activity and rebooking is not possible, a qualifying cruise disruption prevents attendance, or Skylork Ltd approves an illness refund."

          "question": "What if my cruise ship changes itinerary or cannot dock?",
          "answer": "We offer a full refund if your ship changes itinerary or cannot dock and this prevents you from attending your booked activity. Let us know as soon as possible and share your booking details and the cruise line’s notice."
        },

          "question": "Can I get a refund if I am sick?",
          "answer": "Please contact us promptly if you are unwell, and do not join a water activity while sick. Within the 48-hour cancellation window, refunds for illness are at the discretion of Skylork Ltd and are not automatic. Cancellations made at least 48 hours ahead follow our standard full-refund policy."
        },
        {
          "question": "Why is there a 48-hour cancellation window?",
          "answer": "We have limited spaces each day. Your booking reserves a place that we cannot sell to another guest. Last-minute cancellations often leave too little time to refill that space, so please plan responsibly and notify us as early as possible."
        },
        {
          "question": "Can I drink alcohol before snorkeling?",
          "answer": "No. Please act responsibly and avoid alcohol before snorkeling. Arrive sober, ready to swim and able to follow the safety briefing. Do not schedule an alcohol-tasting experience before a snorkeling activity. Tell your guide if you feel unwell or unable to participate safely."

        {
          "question": "Will I make it back to my ship on time?",
          "answer": "We can help you choose a session and return plan around your ship’s all-aboard deadline. Book an earlier departure and allow time for disembarkation, both road journeys, the activity, the briefing and a generous return buffer. Traffic and ship schedules are outside our control, so we cannot give an unconditional return guarantee. Confirm the plan before booking if time is tight."
        },
        {
          "question": "How much time should I allow for a cruise-day visit?",
          "answer": "Allow 2½ hours at the activity, plus road travel in both directions and extra time for port procedures and delays. This visit allowance includes preparation and, for water activities, orientation and the safety briefing; do not add that briefing again. Larger groups may take longer for preparation and the tour. Choose an earlier departure and plan around your ship’s all-aboard deadline, allowing for any difference between ship time and Antigua local time."
        },
        {
          "question": "Is round-trip transportation included?",
          "answer": "Transportation is booked separately. Use our transportation page to reserve the appropriate round-trip transfer, and confirm your pickup point, pickup time and return arrangements for your chosen activity."
        },
        {
          "question": "What is your cancellation policy?",
          "answer": "All activities have a 48-hour cancellation policy. Cancel at least 48 hours before your scheduled start time for a full refund. Cancellations made less than 48 hours before the start time are charged 100%, except when weather prevents an affected snorkeling activity and rebooking is not possible, a qualifying cruise disruption prevents attendance, or Skylork Ltd approves an illness refund."
        },
        {
          "question": "What if my cruise ship changes itinerary or cannot dock?",
          "answer": "We offer a full refund if your ship changes itinerary or cannot dock and this prevents you from attending your booked activity. Let us know as soon as possible and share your booking details and the cruise line’s notice."
        },
        {
          "question": "Can I get a refund if I am sick?",
          "answer": "Please contact us promptly if you are unwell, and do not join a water activity while sick. Within the 48-hour cancellation window, refunds for illness are at the discretion of Skylork Ltd and are not automatic. Cancellations made at least 48 hours ahead follow our standard full-refund policy."
        },
        {
          "question": "Why is there a 48-hour cancellation window?",
          "answer": "We have limited spaces each day. Your booking reserves a place that we cannot sell to another guest. Last-minute cancellations often leave too little time to refill that space, so please plan responsibly and notify us as early as possible."
