Tickets. Telephone representatives are available Monday through Sunday to accept orders. Confirmation of orders will be sent via email. Customers should provide their contact information during the checkout process should any questions arise during the processing of any orders. Customers bear all responsibility for providing a current and accurate delivery address. Usually, all hard tickets will be provided by CSO on the day of the Tour/Activity. However, in certain cases such as SELECT rocket/shuttle launch or special event, CSO may choose to deliver tickets prior to the Tour/Activity. CSO shall determine, in its sole discretion, the method of delivering tickets, including without limitation registered mail, certified mail and/or couriers such as FedEx or UPS, which delivery shall be at Customers sole cost and expense. CSO does not deliver tickets to any hotels, motels or other transitory residence. No refunds or exchanges are allowed for lost deliveries resulting from an improper address. Customers agree to pay all costs to change a delivery address once the order is placed, and CSO will automatically charge you this amount without additional notification. CSO accepts no responsibility for lost or stolen tickets. For Tour/Activity and tickets with validity dates, tickets will not be replaced or exchanged prior to or after the expiration date or Tour/Activity date for any reason. Please note that some orders may require express shipping with a signature requirement to ensure a timely and secure delivery. CSO is not responsible for the actions of the US Postal Service, Federal Express or United Parcel Service.
-
Cancellation/Refunds/Exchanges. In order to offer the best prices as a result of our unique relationship with various partners, we unfortunately must follow strict refund policies and procedures:
-
With the exception of a rocket or a space shuttle launch, a Customer may cancel a Tour/Activity by delivering to CSO written notice of cancellation at least seven (7) days prior to such Tour/Activity, in which case CSO will refund to Customer one hundred percent (100%) of all amounts received by Customer for the cancelled Tour/Activity. If Customer delivers written notice to CSO to cancel a Tour/Activity less than seven (7) days but more than three (3) days prior to the scheduled Tour/Activity, CSO will refund seventy-five percent (75%) of all amounts received by Customer for the cancelled Tour/Activity. There shall be no refund for any Tour/Activity cancelled less than three (3) days prior to the scheduled Tour/Activity.
-
There are no refunds under any circumstances for the purchase of a rocket or a space shuttle launch Tour/Activity. In the event that a cancellation or delay occurs and is rescheduled to a time or date that falls outside of Customer’s available timeline to attend the launch attempt, no refund will be available. Kennedy Space Center is a working Space Launch facility. Tours/Activities may be altered or closed due to operational requirements. All launches are based on targeted/published launch dates. Launch dates are subject to change. It is the Customer’s responsibility to keep up to date with launch information. Due to the unpredictable nature of a space launch, dates cannot be guaranteed and the Tour/Activity will be subject to the following conditions:
-
Rocket and shuttle launch tickets are sold for a specific mission and cannot be transferred to any other space shuttle mission.
-
If a rocket or shuttle launch attempt is canceled or delayed more than 24 hours prior to a scheduled Tour/Activity pick-up time, not the launch time of the space shuttle, then the Customer has a choice to (a) convert the Tour/Activity to the regularly scheduled CSO Kennedy Space Center Tour; or (b) reschedule (at no charge) for the next launch attempt of that mission only.
-
If the Rocket or Space Shuttle Launch attempt is canceled or delayed less than 24 hours prior to scheduled Tour/Activity pick-up time, not the launch time of the space shuttle, then the Customer has a choice of (a) convert the Tour/Activity to the regularly scheduled CSO Kennedy Space Center Tour; or (b) reschedule at a cost of $50.00 per person rescheduling fee for the next launch attempt of that mission only. This fee is to cover the cost of transportation that has to be paid for in the event of cancellation within 24 hours of scheduled pickup time.
-
Lost or stolen tickets MAY be able to be provided but at full retail cost to Customer at the sole discretion of Kennedy Space Center.
-
Regular Kennedy Space Center admission tickets are valid for entry to Kennedy Space Center for every mission launch attempt.
-
VIP causeway viewing tickets (“LTT Tickets”) are valid for every mission launch attempt, provided that:
-
In the event of a cancelation or delay within the 24 hours prior to the scheduled pick-up time, Customer can ONLY reschedule the reservation at www.floridadolphintours.com.
-
Customer must be in possession of proof of a valid rescheduled reservation in order to re-board CSO vehicles for the VERY NEXT launch attempt.
-
Further terms and conditions may be posted on the shuttle launch webpage on this Website.

Weather, illness, or any other emergencies do not affect our no refund – no exchange policy.
-
In some circumstances a credit voucher may be offered to a Customer. If a Customer accepts the voucher and then disputes the charged amount, the credit voucher is rendered null and void. A credit voucher may be redeemed for one or more specific reservations only ONCE. After a credit voucher is converted into one or more specific Tour/Activity reservations, it may not subsequently be converted back into a credit voucher.

Services. The term Tour/Activity is used herein to refer to services, tours, tickets, transportation, performances, or activities that CSO offers (“Tour/Activity”). Duration of Tour/Activity hours is approximate. No smoking in Tour/Activity vehicles.

Lodging, show, attraction, and other reservations in the Tour/Activity are subject to availability. For shows and events with seat assignments, all seat assignments are “best available general admission seats at time reservation is made.” CSO will forward any special request to the reservation department but absolutely no guarantees are made regarding actual seat assignments. It is impossible for CSO or any other vendor to guarantee specific seats. In the event that a specific show or attraction is not available during customer’s dates, CSO will contact Customer with alternative options. It is important to provide detailed contact information when placing the order so CSO may reach Customer with Customer’s alternative options. Special requests, such as smoking or non-smoking rooms and room types, cannot be guaranteed.
