2010 Worlds in Sweden

Another annoyance is the cancellation policy for hotels. I was all set to book tonight, but looked at the cancellation policy and got serious cold feet. It's a little too early to adhere to these rules: So it appears that even if you pony up the nearly 500 kronor ($65 US) for the insurance you still incur a penalty even if you cancel before the end of March! I don't know if this kind of policy is typical in Europe or Sweden, but it seems awfully restrictive to me. I've fwd this question to one of the meet directors. When the registration opened last april, this cancellation insurance was great. I booked a cabin for 10 days as well as registered 4 people. it was going to run just under $2900. spending the extra $65 to only have to pay $145 if I got hurt or sick during winter or paying $290 if something happened before May sounded really great mostly since I made my booking over a year before the meet. it would have saved me up to 90% of my booking. I can understand it doesn't sound like such a great deal if you only have 1 or 4 months to back out. Check with your home insurance, or credit card benefits. I know that we can get money back from a trip that we can not make due to illness or injury when we pay with Mastercard. your only other options would be to try to book a room on your own. then you could get the regular hotel cancellation 48 or 24 hrs before. the problem will be finding available rooms. it is my understanding that they have booked up 9000 beds. finding rooms on your own might not be easy now, but after the registration deadline maybe most of the unbooked rooms will be released to the public.
