Want to join one of our incredible tours, but the room you wanted is currently sold out? Don’t worry, you may still have the opportunity to join us!

If your preferred room type is sold out, simply complete the reservation form and submit the required waitlist deposit. You’ll automatically be added to the waitlist in the order your submission is received. Cancellations and changes can happen due to unexpected events, illness, or other circumstances, and we’d love to make sure you’re next in line if space becomes available.

Important Update to Our Waitlist Policy

Our Waitlist Policy changed on June 18, 2026.

• Reservations submitted on or after June 18, 2026 follow the current waitlist policy below.
• Reservations submitted prior to June 18, 2026 remain subject to the waitlist terms shown on your original reservation form. If your original form stated your waitlist deposit was refundable, we will honor those terms.

Why Did the Waitlist Policy Change?

Our Waitlist Policy was updated to make the waitlist process more fair, consistent, and transparent across all Sisterhood Travels tours.

Previously, the amount required to join the waitlist significantly varied across all tours and was highly dependent upon each tour’s deposit schedule. This meant some Sisters having to invest the full amount of the tour, just to hold their place in line.

The new policy is fairer and greatly simplified:

• A flat $500 waitlist deposit applies to every tour and room type.
• Waitlist positions are assigned strictly in the order reservation forms are received.*

Joining the waitlist does not guarantee a spot on the tour, but it does reserve your place in line if your preferred room type becomes available.

Waitlist Policy

When completing your reservation form, you may see a message indicating that only waitlist space is available for your selected occupancy or room type:

“This category is currently sold out and available by waitlist only.”

This means you may submit a $500 non-refundable deposit to join the waitlist. Placement is determined by the date and time each completed reservation form and deposit are received.

How It Works

1. Complete your reservation form.
2. Confirm that the form displays the following waitlist message:
   “This category is currently sold out and available by waitlist only.”
3. Submit your reservation form with the $500 non-refundable waitlist deposit.
4. You will automatically be added to the waitlist in the order your completed submission and deposit are received.
5. If space becomes available, we will notify you and provide the payment amount, confirmation requirements, and applicable deadlines.
6. To secure your reservation, complete all required confirmation steps and pay the balance due by the deadline provided. This may include deposit or payment milestones that have already passed.
7. Once confirmed, your $500 waitlist deposit will be applied to your reservation. It will remain non-refundable, become non-transferable, and be subject to our standard Terms & Conditions.

Please note:

• If you clear the waitlist after the tour’s final payment date, the full remaining balance will be due within 24 hours of notification.
• If you do not complete the required payment or confirmation steps by the stated deadline, the space may be offered to the next Sister on the waitlist.

I Didn’t Clear the Waitlist. Now What?

If a space does not become available and we are unable to confirm your reservation from the waitlist, your $500 waitlist deposit will become a future travel credit. If you decide to leave the waitlist before your reservation is confirmed, your $500 deposit is not refundable, but it isn’t lost.

You may request to have your $500 non-refundable waitlist deposit transferred as a non-refundable payment toward a new or existing Sisterhood Travels reservation. You may also request to have it placed in your Sisterhood Travels Travel Bank to be used as a non-refundable payment toward a new or existing reservation.

I No Longer Wish to Remain on the Waitlist. Now What?

Prior to your reservation being confirmed, if you decide you no longer wish to remain on the waitlist, you may request to have your $500 non-refundable waitlist deposit transferred as a non-refundable payment toward a new Sisterhood Travels reservation.

You may also request to have it placed in your Sisterhood Travels Travel Bank to be used as a non-refundable payment toward a new reservation.

Double Occupancy Waitlists

If you’re waitlisted with a requested roommate, each reservation clears individually based on availability and waitlist order. We cannot guarantee that both Sisters will clear at the same time, or at all. If only one space becomes available, it will be offered to the next eligible traveler.

Important Information for all Waitlist Clients

Because openings can happen at any time, please be prepared to quickly complete and submit any remaining travel requirements, including:

• Passport documentation
• Required travel protection
• Required forms and documentation
• Flight arrangements

We know that arranging flights can be challenging, especially when clearing from the waitlist. While we generally require flight details by the stated deadline once your reservation is confirmed, we are happy to review extension requests whenever possible. Just reach out to us, and we’ll do our best to assist.
