I am sorry to inform you that she passed away suddenly and I have already spoken to the airline & hotel about getting a refund on the package. However, Apple Vacations has yet to process the refund due to her death but they are denying to give me refund and offering a credit which is unfair we don't have any plan of travel or package booking kindly help us to get our refund and I am hoping you can help me with this. I understand that this is not an ideal situation and I’m hoping you can provide some guidance on how I can get my refund from Apple Vacations.

      Best price guaranteed was not honored. With insurance purchased. Several attempts made to contact by phone and email. No resolution I also drove to the address listed on all websites. Believe its a mock office. Waited for hours no one ever there for service. A price adjustment shouldve have been received due to package purchase being advertised for less. Not satisfied at all after bring a return customer for over 15 years
