SYDNEY – Adventure World is working directly with its local ground operator in Chile to assist affected clients in the devastated region.

Marketing manager Neil Rodgers said that they were in the process of revising bookings and updating those agents concerned.

Adventure World will not be charging any cancellation fees and will request with their local suppliers on a case-by-case basis any cancellation fees charged under the tragic circumstances.
