Himare - Corfu

?

La tua vacanza al mare nel sud dell’Albania sarà un’esperienza divertente, meravigliosa e indimenticabile. Le spiagge assolate, il mare blu, le gite in barca, gli alberghi moderni e ristoranti romantici sul mare, dallo stile originale, che offrono piatti tipici tradizionali e di ispirazione internazionale. 

Allora un giorno, per variare e per arricchire la tua esperienza di viaggio, potresti fare un salto in Greece. Puoi prendere l’aliscafo da Himare a Corfu, per una gita breve o per proseguire sull’isola greca le tue avventure estive.

Corfu dista meno di 2 km dalle coste albanesi, nel punto più stretto del Canale di Corfu, sarebbe un peccato non approfittare e non passare una giornata alla scoperta di questa isola ridente e gioiosa.

Una volta arrivato al porto di Corfu, potrai percorrere a piedi il viale che ti porta a visitare il centro storico, la centralissima via Liston, il castello e la chiesa di San Spiridione, il santo protettore della città. 

Mandraki: situata nel cuore dell’isola di Corfù, questo quartiere comprende il porto dove ormeggiano navi e aliscafi provenienti da Igoumenitsa o da porti internazionali. Con una camminata di pochi minuti si arriva al centro storico, dove visitare l’antica Fortezza Veneziana, all’interno della quale si trova la ricca biblioteca della città, il Museo di Arte Asiatica, il viale Liston dove si trovano diversi negozi, bar e ristoranti. Alle spalle di Liston si trova la chiesa di San Spiridione, con le sue decorazioni in legno e argento. Intorno alla chiesa si trovano piccoli negozi di souvenir, che creano un’atmosfera colorata e vivace. 

Gouvia: a nord del porto, comprende uno dei porti turistici più grandi dell’isola. Qui ci sono diversi servizi forniti per le imbarcazioni da diporto, ma anche spiagge e parchi acquatici, il più grande il Kerkyra Beach Watersport dove noleggiare moto d’acqua, banana boat o attrezzature per le immersioni. Nelle vicinanze la spiaggia di Gouvia, accessibile a tutti, con acque trasparenti e piccoli ciottoli rotondi dal colore marrone e grigio.

Ipsos: è un villagio costiero che è diventato in pochi anni una delle destinazioni preferite dei giovani , per la tranquillità che offre durante il giorno e per la vita notturna movimentata, che lo ha reso popolare tra i giovani. Di giorno le sue acque cristalline e poco profonde regalano frescura e riposo e i ristoranti lungo la costa offrono deliziosi piatti della cucina locale.

Kassiopi: è situata nella parte nord-est dell’isola, a quasi 35 km dal porto ed è  di Corfù. Nota per le sue bellissime spiagge, come Kalamionas, Bataria e Pipitos, Kassiopi offre ai turisti un incredibile panorama sui monti dell’Albania. Alcune piccole spiagge sabbiose sono raggiungibile solo a piedi e poco frequentate, ma di sicuro la natura incontaminata e le acque cristalline ripagheranno la fatica.

Sidari: è l’estremità settentrionale dell’isola di Corfu, dal piccolo porto di Sidari partono i traghetti per le Isole Diapontine. La zona di Sidari è piena di alberghi e strutture ricettive per le famiglie con bambini, di ristoranti, supermercati, ristoranti e bar lounge lungo la spiaggia. Qui si trovano gli stabilimenti balneari più belli di tutta Corfu, con sabbia fine, acque basse e centri di divertimento e parchi acquatici. 

Paleokastritsa: è un vero gioiello sul versante occidentale dell’isola. Le acque qui sono turchesi e verdi, sulla costa si trovano le agenzie che noleggiano barche o che organizzano mini tour con guida alla scoperta delle affascinanti grotte marine, dalle acque profonde e fresche, dove tuffarsi e scattare foto meravigliose da condividere con gli amici sui social. In cima alla collina che scende a strapiombo sul mare di Paleokastritsa, si erge imponente il pittoresco Monastero di Santa Maria, un piccolo angolo di tranquillità e silenzio, che regala ai visitatori una suggestiva veduta del blu intenso del mare e incomparabili tramonti.

Glyfada: è la spiaggia più estesa dell’isola, lunga quasi 1 km su tutta la parte ovest che dista circa 20 minuti di macchina dal porto principale. Sulla sabbia dorata grandi e piccoli si possono divertire giocando a beach volley e beach football, noleggiare ombrelloni e sedie sdraio, gustare piatti deliziosi nei numerosi ristoranti e bar sul lungomare o fare delle passeggiate su per le colline boscose ai piedi del villagio di Pelekas, nell’entroterra, famoso per essere stato scelto dal Kaiser Guglielmo II come osservatorio panoramico dell’isola e del mare, luogo di ritiro e meditazione. Il kaiser passava a Corfu le sue vacanze estive e la sua residenza qui diventava per alcuni mesi dell’anno il centro della diplomazia europea.

Agios Georgios: è la zona più tranquilla e meno turistica della città, la spiaggia più bella è quella di Porto Timoni, una bellezza selvaggia a 1 km dal villaggio suggestivo di Afionas, dai piccoli e labirintici vicoli, simili a molti paesi del Salento. Da qui la spiaggia libera di Timoni si può raggiungere a piedi o con pedalo, da noleggiare sulla spiaggia di Agios Georgios.  

Kavos: si trova nella parte meridionale dell’isola ed è molto frequentata soprattutto da turisti inglesi in cerca di divertimento e avventura. Qui si trova un grand parco acquatico, il Water Fun Park, e diversi negozi specializzati nel noleggio di quad e go kart, per un’esperienza fantastica. Famosa per le sue acque profonde, Kavos è anche il paradiso dei tuffatori e del volo in parapendio.

Messonghi: si trova a 22 km a sud del Porto di Corfu, sulla litoranea per Lefkimmi e Kavos, ed è rinomata per i villaggi turistici e resort molto apprezzati dalle famiglie, grazie anche alle spiagge sabbiose e acque calde. Durante il giorno le attività ruotano intorno alle spiagge e alle feste in piscina, la sera invece vengono organizzate delle vere feste con musica e balli. Il menu è vario e originale, fatto di piatti locali rivistati in chiave internazionale.

Benitses: posizionata a sud del centro città, non molto lontana dalla Fortezza, è uno dei porti turistici dell’isola, costruito in un angolo protetto e tranquillo. Il villaggio è noto per aver conservato negli anni lo stile greco delle costruzioni, con case piccole e imbiancate a calce, dove vivono i pescatori che durante la giornata si possono osservare mentre armeggiano con lenze e palangari. Non lontano dalla baia di Benitses, nel villaggio di Gastouri, si trova Achilleion, il rifugio che l’imperatrice Elisabetta d’Austria costruì per evadere dalla noiosa vita di palazzo e dal rigido cerimoniale spagnolo in uso alla corte asburgica.

Pontikonissi: è il punto più instagrammabile dell’isola, si può dire il luogo più famoso, l’immagine simbolo che rappresenta tutta l’isola. Pontikonissi ospita i resti, oggi visitabili, del Monastero di Vlacherna, attivo fino agli anni 80. L’isolotto è collegato dalla penisola di Kanoni da un pontile stretto.

Corfu è un’isola per tutte le stagioni, con il suo clima mite e la cordialità della gente. Nell’entroterra si trovano montagne e colline, interamente coperte da una fitta vegetazione. L’architettura è testimone dei diversi domini che si sono susseguiti nell’isola e che hanno lasciato un segno indelebile.

Moby Lines General Conditions

MOBY General Conditions of Carriage

The following General Conditions of Carriage shall be adequately advertised at all ticket offices, company offices and travel agencies. The term “passenger” is understood to mean any person carried on the basis of these General Conditions for the carriage of passengers and accompanying vehicles. The passenger is obliged to comply with the prescriptions of Italian and foreign laws as well as the regulations of the carrier (both the contracting carrier and the carrier operating the carriage) and the instructions of the ship's Master. When the carrier (contracting and/or actual) is “Moby S.p.A.” for any reports or complaints, it is necessary to fill in the form on the website www.moby.it. 1) RULES OF TRANSPORT The subject of the contract is the carriage of passengers with accompanying vehicles and baggage as governed by these general conditions, by articles 396 et seq. of the Code of Navigation and, as of 31.12.2012, by Regulation EC/392/2009. A summary of the provisions of said regulation on passenger rights is available at www.moby.it and at check-in counters. The carriage of the car is regulated by Italian regulations on the carriage of accompanied baggage (art. 419 et seq. of the Nav. Code) and by these general conditions. Information on passenger rights according to EU regulation 1177/2010 is available on board ships and at check-in counters. Pursuant to Article 19.6 of Regulation EU/1177/2010 the minimum threshold below which compensation is not provided is €6 (six). The indication of the vessel that will perform the carriage is merely indicative as it is possible for the carrier to perform the same with another vessel, even of other carriers. The carrier declines all liability for any damage caused to the passenger by the delay or non-execution of the carriage if the event is the result of unforeseeable circumstances, force majeure, adverse weather conditions, strikes and technical failures constituting force majeure or other causes not attributable to it. It is, however, at the discretion of the ship's Master, in the event of events that may compromise the safety of the ship and/or passengers, to change the itinerary. The offers and conditions advertised may be subject to change up to the time the ticket is issued. For the liability regime in relation to the carriage of passengers, luggage and accompanying cars and for anything not provided for in these general conditions, express reference is made to the current regulations of the Italian Navigation Code. Until disembarkation, passengers are responsible for their hand luggage and its contents. Crossing times are indicative and calculated on the basis of the distance between ports and in favourable weather conditions. The carrier cannot be held responsible for delays due to port operations. 2) VALIDITY OF THE TICKET The ticket is personal, non-transferable and valid only for the carriage specified therein. The passenger is required to keep the contract/ticket in order to justify his right to travel and to show it together with his personal identity document to any ship's Officer or Carrier's Official during check-in operations who may request it. A passenger who is found without a ticket or who cannot prove ownership of the ticket will be required to pay double the passage price, without prejudice to compensation for damages. Upon delivery of the ticket, the customer is required to verify that all data correspond to his or her request and that the data of the accompanying vehicle correspond to what is indicated on the registration certificate and identity document. The carrier assumes no liability for errors or omissions reported later. 3) TOTAL CANCELLATION OF THE TICKET AND REFUNDS Tickets issued at ordinary fares may be refunded provided that the cancellation takes place before the booked departure date, is documented with a validation stamp, date and time by an office of the carrier or an authorised travel agency and transmitted to our Reservation Centre (limited to call centre hours). The original of the cancelled ticket must be returned to the issuing agency. Reimbursement must be requested from the issuing agency and is always subject to the following penalties (the number of days indicated does not include the day of cancellation): ORDINARY-FARE TICKETS: - 10% up to 30 days prior to departure; - 20% from 29 days up to 48 hours prior to departure; - 50% from 48 hours up to 4 hours prior to departure. No refund if cancellation occurs less than 4 hours before departure. For tickets purchased on the same day as the departure date, the cancellation fee is 100%. By purchasing the insurance policy (see information material on www.moby.it) at the same time as the carrier's ticket, if an unforeseen event indicated in the relevant conditions occurs, you may cancel the trip without losing the cost of the penalties. Fees and charges are never refundable. NO refund will be given if - the passenger does not present him/herself at departure; - tickets are cancelled prior to departure. The right to a refund is forfeited if it is not requested by 31 January following the year of the originally scheduled departure. In case of cancellation of a ticket purchased through the use of a bonus previously granted to the passenger, any refund will be made exclusively through the issuance of an additional bonus to be used for the purchase of a new ticket. 4) LOST OR STOLEN TICKETS The loss or theft of a ticket must be reported immediately to the issuing agency or port office of the contracting carrier at the time of departure. A duplicate can only be issued on condition that the original ticket has not already been used, upon presentation of proof of identity. 5) FAILURE TO RECEIVE TICKETS PURCHASED ONLINE Without prejudice to the provisions of article 4 above, in the event of failure to receive a ticket due to causes not attributable to the carrier, including but not limited to the incorrect address details provided by the passenger, the malfunctioning of the passenger's internet or mobile telephone network, computer or telephone terminal, the passenger must promptly notify the Moby Help Desk at helpdesk@moby.it. The duplicate can only be issued on condition that the original ticket has not already been used, after identification of the passenger. 6) VARIATION PENALTIES Variations of date, line, number of passengers, timetable will be accepted, within the limits of the seats and spaces available and on condition that they are requested at least 2 hours before the booked departure (limited to call centre times), subject to payment of €10.00 as reimbursement of expenses for each variation (in addition to payment of any differences), only if indicated on the ticket. A change in destination (e.g. from Corsica to Sardinia) will result in the cancellation of the reservation, with the corresponding penalties, and the reissue of a new ticket. Any fare difference and changes concerning the number of passengers, accompanying vehicles, vehicle categories and accommodation will be refunded at the issuing agency with the following penalties: 10% if made more than 30 days before departure; 20% if made more than 10 days before departure; no refund less than 9 days before departure. The number of days indicated does not include the day of the change and the day of departure. The change is permitted only within the scope of departures published on the carrier's website. The original ticket, prior to the change, must obligatorily be handed over to the agency that changed it. 7) SPECIAL OFFERS - RESTRICTIONS Taking advantage of a special offer entails certain restrictions: - Special offers are available while seats allocated to them last (seats vary according to date and line). - They are valid on all our destinations but only if there is a Best Price fare. - All published offers are valid as of 03/11/2021 and do not include any special offers and extraordinary promotional campaigns that may be proposed by the carrier during the season, which may in any case derogate from the offers and conditions in force at the time of printing without having retroactive effect or giving any entitlement in respect of contracts already concluded. - In principle, special offers cannot be purchased directly at the port on the day of departure but must be booked. - A ticket issued with special offers is changeable for Sardinia and Corsica destinations only on condition that the change is requested at least 2 hours before the booked departure (limited to call centre hours). Each modification involves the payment of a penalty, per route, of €10.00 (Corsica) or €25.00 (Sardinia), in addition to any fare differences. The above penalties shall also be applied in the event of passenger name changes. Notwithstanding the above, for the Island of Elba and for the S. Teresa - Bonifacio and v.v. route, the ticket cannot be changed (not even name changes). - A ticket issued with special offers is not refundable, not even partially, for any route/route. In the event of cancellation, the ticket will be subject to a penalty equal to the total amount paid. This regime automatically extends to all passengers added within the same booking process. - In general, special offers, unless otherwise specified, are never retroactive, nor can they be combined with other discounts or promotions. - Accompanying vehicles covered by the promotions, unless otherwise specified, are always motorbikes and passenger cars (including those registered as trucks) up to 5 m in length and 2.20 m in height. All vehicles - used for transporting goods (with or without cargo) - are not eligible for the sales promotion. In general, vans and pick-ups are not considered cars. - When accessing a promotion involving the booking of an accompanying vehicle, the boarding personnel will ascertain that this vehicle is actually being transported. If the latter is absent, the customer will be required to pay a penalty. - In general, if the port assistance staff discovers anomalies in the booking, with respect to what is present at embarkation, they will request payment of a penalty, even for the outward journey, even if it has already been made. - Penalties generally correspond to the cost of the maximum fare in our price lists. - We recommend the simultaneous purchase of a “travel cancellation policy” (see our website www.moby.it). SPECIAL FARE FOR BORN OR RESIDENT IN SARDINIA In order to take advantage of the special fares for residents and natives of Sardinia, passengers must present, at the time of ticket purchase and upon boarding, a valid personal identification document proving their residence or birth in a Sardinian municipality. In the absence of the indicated documentation, it will not be possible to embark with tickets issued at the “resident or native” fare but it will be necessary to purchase a new ticket at the full fare. The resident or native fare ticket will not be refunded. A ticket issued with a resident fare associated with a special offer is non-refundable. If the native or resident person is making the journey together with his/her spouse, the discount will be granted against self-certification, without the need to provide proof of family status. Non-resident spouses and children travelling in the absence of the native or resident person must accompany the ticket with a self-certification (available at www.moby.it) enclosing the identity document of each applicant and the native or resident Sardinian, without having to show their family status. Non-retroactive offer. For some departures, seats reserved for the resident fare may be limited. SPECIAL FARE FOR ISLAND OF ELBA RESIDENTS OR PIOMBINO RESIDENTS In order to take advantage of the special fares for residents, passengers must show a valid identity document at the time of ticket purchase and boarding, showing residence in a municipality on the Island of Elba or residence in the municipality of Piombino. For accompanied vehicles, the registration certificate must be shown, showing that the vehicle is registered to a person resident on the Island of Elba or in Piombino. The resident fare applies to the resident passenger and vehicle registered in his name. In the absence of the indicated documentation, it will not be possible to board with tickets issued at the resident fare, but it will be necessary to purchase a new full-fare ticket. The resident fare ticket will not be refunded. Offer not retroactive. 8) “TAXES, FEES, CHARGES AND OTHER COSTS” FORFAIT The amounts of the “taxes, fees, charges and other costs” forfait are subject to change up to the time the ticket is issued, except in any case for taxes, fees and changes resulting from changes in the regulations in force. 9) CHECK-IN The time limit for check-in is 30 minutes for passengers without an accompanying vehicle (port of Bastia at least 1 hour in advance), and 1 hour and 30 minutes for passengers with an accompanying vehicle (port of Genoa and Bastia at least 2 hours in advance), except in the case of any provisions issued by the Authorities. Immediately after validating your ticket, you must present yourself for boarding. After this time, the reservation lapses and boarding is no longer guaranteed. For passengers with disabilities or reduced mobility, the provisions of point 17 apply. 10) BOARDING AND DISEMBARKATION OF VEHICLES A) Accompanying vehicles fuelled by liquid gas must be declared at the time of booking and embarkation. B) Alarm and electrical anti-theft systems must be deactivated at the time of embarkation. C) Vehicles used for the carriage of goods must make reservations and are subject to the tariffs laid down for the carriage of goods and therefore do not fall within the category of “accompanied vehicles” as referred to in these conditions. The lengths of accompanying vehicles are to be considered as overall length, including towbars, drawbars or other. Camper vans, caravans, off-road vehicles or any other vehicles that are taller than m. 2.20 from the ground (and/or wider than m. 1.85, although they are not subject to any width surcharge), must be reported at the time of booking. Vans exceeding 6 m in length must be booked by contacting the freight office on 02 57517461. Failure to comply with the above may result in the carrier cancelling the booking and automatically placing you on the waiting list for the day, subject to payment of the difference due in addition to the €50.00 penalty for the outward journey, even if you have already made it. Accompanying vehicles shall not be embarked in the chronological order of their arrival at the quay, but according to the instructions given by the ship's Captain and/or his subordinates and may be accommodated on any of the ship's decks. They must be boarded, parked (with the handbrake on, gear engaged and lights off) and disembarked at the passenger's care and responsibility. Please do not set the alarm but make sure that the doors and luggage compartment are securely closed. The accompanying vehicle, including any trailer or caravan with its contents, is accepted by the carrier as a single load unit. Also pursuant to Article 412 of the Code of Navigation, any damage to the accompanying vehicle or any other damaging event occurring on board ships must be reported before disembarkation. To this end, the passenger must present a report to one of the ship's officers who will make the ascertainment on a special form, which must be signed by the passenger. 11) PREGNANT WOMEN In the case of pregnant women in an uncomplicated gestational state, having completed the 6th month of pregnancy, the passenger must obtain a medical certificate issued no more than seven days prior to departure attesting to her fitness to undertake the sea voyage, which must be presented to the ship's Officer or to the Commissioner who requests it, or to the ship's crew. In the event of pregnancy complications, the passenger must be provided with a medical certificate authorising the trip regardless of the month of gestation. This is without prejudice, however, to the Master's discretion to refuse passage should he consider that the passenger is not fit to undertake the trip. 12) UNACCOMPANIED MINORS Children between 12 and 17 years of age may also travel unaccompanied, under the responsibility of those exercising parental authority. It is necessary to present at boarding, a written declaration, containing all the information indicated on the ticket, in which the parent or those exercising parental authority assume responsibility for the journey made by the minor, enclosing, in addition, the family status and identity document of the undersigned. Children under 12 years of age may not travel alone but must be accompanied at embarkation, disembarkation and during the trip by at least one other adult passenger. If travelling to France, minors must have a valid document for foreign travel. From 28 June 2012, all minors will only be able to travel abroad with an individual travel document; from this date, all minors“ entries on their parents” document are no longer valid. 13) ANIMALS AND PROTECTED SPECIES They will be embarked only if provided with a ticket, rabies vaccination document where required and a valid medical certificate.

Pets are not allowed in the cabin except in cabins with pet access or in the armchair lounge. They are only allowed on the outside decks of the ship or, where available, in the appropriate shelters subject to availability. Guide dogs intended to assist the visually impaired, if provided with the appropriate documentation, are exempt from paying the fare. Specimens belonging to protected animal or plant species, in compliance with Art. 727-bis of the Penal Code, implementing Community Directives 92/73/EC and 2009/147/EC, as well as Law no. 150 of 7/2/1992 implementing Council Regulation (EC) no. 338/97 of 9.12.1996, may only be transported if in possession of the relevant licence or certificate and under the conditions stipulated therein. 14) TRANSPORT OF WEAPONS In compliance with the Regulations for maritime navigation Presidential Decree no. 328 of 15/2/1952 Art. 384 - “Passengers, upon embarkation, must hand over the weapons and ammunition in their possession to the ship's captain, who will take care of them until disembarkation. Withdrawal of the arms or ammunition from those who hold them by reason of their office or service is permitted only for serious and ascertained reasons to be indicated in a special declaration at the time of withdrawal.” Failure to report the carrying of weapons is sanctioned under Article 1199, second paragraph of the Code of Navigation, unless it constitutes a more serious offence. 15) INFORMATION ON PASSENGERS In compliance with Decree Law no. 251 of 13/10/1999 implementing EEC Directive 98/41 of 18/06/1998 and with the regulations concerning the application of the ISPS code on anti-terrorist regulations, the following is hereby communicated: all boarding passengers are required to inform the carrier of any information relating to their need for special assistance in emergency situations. All passengers, including minors, must present themselves at the boarding gate with a valid identity document; if not, boarding will be denied. Passengers requiring assistance for embarkation (people with mobility difficulties, etc., whether by car or on foot) must communicate this at the time of booking, contacting the actual carrier's call centre to find out about the availability of suitable accommodation and/or ease of access on board; they are also required to present themselves for embarkation at least 60 minutes in advance, pointing out this need to the quayside and/or on-board staff in order to allow the car to be embarked near suitable access to the ship and possible assistance during embarkation and disembarkation operations. Passengers are also required to communicate their personal details at the time of booking, understood as: SURNAME, NAME, SEX, NATIONALITY, AGE CATEGORY (infant, child, adult and infant), DATE AND PLACE OF BIRTH. In the event of a change in the data highlighted above between the time of booking and the time of boarding, passengers are obliged to communicate these changes. Personal data, collected in accordance with this article, are kept only for the time necessary for the purposes of the aforementioned decree and/or in compliance with the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 196/2003. Please note that for departures from Italy to France or vice versa, a valid document for foreign travel (passport or identity card, even for minors) is required upon boarding.

For Corsica, passengers must be in possession of documents valid for foreign travel. 16) PASSENGER'S HEALTH CONDITIONS The on-board doctor, where present, provides assistance only in cases of emergency; the carrier does not, therefore, accept passengers requiring medical assistance during transport, except as provided for in point 17 below. In the presence of a suitable medical certificate issued no more than 48 hours before departure and issued by a public health facility (hospital, ASL), stating that the passenger does not require medical assistance during carriage, the carrier will embark said passenger, declining all liability in this regard. It is also subject to the judgement of the captain and the on-board doctor, if any, to board a passenger who is in such a physical or mental condition that he/she is unable to undertake the journey or is in such a condition as to cause discomfort or danger to him/herself or others due to the abuse of drugs, hallucinogens and alcohol. In all of the aforementioned cases, the passenger shall not be entitled to compensation for damages and shall be liable for damages caused to his or her person, the ship, all of its fittings or equipment, third parties as well as third parties' property. The acceptance of the passenger on board by the carrier shall not be considered as a waiver of any right of the carrier to enforce its reservations about the passenger's condition, whether or not known to the carrier at the time of embarkation and/or departure of the vessel. 17) PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AND PEOPLE WITH REDUCED MOBILITY The carrier accepts reservations from disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility under the same conditions applicable to all other passengers, subject however to the provisions of Regulation EU/1177/2010 (a notice regarding this regulation is available at www.moby.it). Disabled persons or persons with reduced mobility must notify the carrier at the time of reservation or advance purchase of the ticket of their specific needs with regard to accommodation, seating, required services or the need to carry medical equipment provided such needs or requirements are known at that time. The notification may be sent to the travel agent or the tour operator from which the ticket was purchased. The Carrier will provide the passenger with the necessary information regarding the conditions of access and assistance on board, including the times of presentation at the port of departure. If strictly necessary, the Carrier may require that a disabled adult person or an adult person with reduced mobility be accompanied by another person (accompanying person) capable of providing the necessary assistance to the disabled person or person with reduced mobility. Such an accompanying person shall be transported free of charge. Where a disabled person or person with reduced mobility is accompanied by a recognised assistance dog, that dog shall be accommodated together with that person, provided that the Carrier is notified in accordance with applicable national rules on the carriage of recognised assistance dogs on board passenger ships. The Carrier may refuse to accept a reservation from, to issue a ticket to or to embark a disabled person or person with reduced mobility for the purpose of complying with applicable safety requirements established by international, European Union or national legislation or for the purpose of complying with safety requirements established by the competent authorities; or where the design of the ship or port infrastructure and equipment makes it impossible to carry out the embarkation, disembarkation or carriage of that person in a safe or operationally feasible manner; in such a case, the disabled person or person with reduced mobility shall be notified immediately of the specific reasons. Upon request, those reasons shall be notified in writing to the disabled person or person with reduced mobility no later than five days after the request. If the disabled person or person with reduced mobility, who holds a reservation or ticket and has been duly notified, is nonetheless denied embarkation, that person and any accompanying person shall be offered the choice between the right to reimbursement and re-routing, subject to all safety requirements being met. The carrier is liable for damage resulting from the loss of or damage to mobility equipment or other specific equipment used by disabled persons or persons with reduced mobility if the incident which caused the damage was due to the fault or neglect of the carrier or the terminal operator. The fault or neglect of the carrier shall be presumed when the damage was caused by a shipping incident. The compensation referred to in paragraph 1 shall correspond to the replacement value of the equipment concerned or, where applicable, to the costs of repair. These provisions shall not apply where Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 392/2009 applies. Disabled passengers or passengers with reduced mobility who also require boarding assistance must inform the Carrier at least 48 hours in advance of their needs and present themselves at least 60 minutes before the departure time. 18) BOARDING INFORMATION AND NAVIGATION REGULATIONS Passengers upon boarding are required to take all valuables and anything else they may need during the crossing from the accompanying car (all ships are air-conditioned). The carrier is not liable for any missing items and/or equipment from the car. It is strictly forbidden to disembark from the ship after embarkation. If the ship is equipped with a side entrance for foot passengers, access to the garage with the car is allowed only to the driver, the other passengers must use the side staircase with the nominal check-in coupon.It is absolutely forbidden to enter the ship's garage during navigation. 19) ACCOMMODATION At the time of embarkation it is essential to present yourself at the Reception desk on board for cabin or seat assignment. Failing this, the same will be put up for sale 1 hour and 30 minutes after the departure of the ship. Cabins must be vacated at least one hour before arrival in port. 20) SECURITY INFORMATION AND ISPS COSTS In compliance with the international ISPS code concerning anti-terrorist regulations, passengers are informed that they are required to show their travel ticket and identity document if requested by a ship's officer or other security personnel. They are also required to consent to any inspection of their baggage or vehicle if requested to do so. Such inspections may also be carried out by port facilities. Please note that while ships are in port, it is forbidden to come within 50 metres of the ship and its moorings. Furthermore, in connection with the application of the ISPS code, the carrier informs you that the port authorities may have further requests and the payment of additional fees, not yet quantified at the time of printing this brochure.

Passengers with accompanying vehicles are not allowed to embark: - Category A weapons (Firearms, bomb, laser beam weapons, ...). 21) VEHICLE PLATES According to current regulations, the Authorities oblige shipping companies to provide the identification number of the licence plate of all accompanying vehicles carried: passengers with accompanying vehicles are therefore obliged to provide such data to the shipping company. This regulation does not apply to journeys to and from the Island of Elba. 22) LOST OBJECTS Should passengers forget or lose personal items on board, they may contact the ship's reception desk or, once disembarked, they may fill in the appropriate form which can be downloaded from the actual carrier's website (which, in the case of Moby is www.moby.it) and send it to the relevant e-mail address (for Moby: oggetti.smarriti@moby.it). The carrier, as soon as it receives the report, will immediately carry out all necessary searches, without being liable for any compensation in the event of failure to find the objects forgotten or lost on board by the passenger. Items found and mailed will be stored for 6 months. 23) LIABILITY OF THE ACTUAL CARRIER If the maritime carrier operating the carriage is not the contracting carrier, the actual carrier assumes liability for the carriage in accordance with Article 1681 of the Civil Code and Regulation EC/392/2009, so the passenger has the right to take direct action against it. The indication of the actual carrier, if different from the contracting carrier, may take place from the moment of pre-notation in which case it shall be indicated on the ticket or by notification within 24 hours of departure. 24) APPLICABLE LAW AND COURT OF JURISDICTION The contract of carriage of passengers, luggage and accompanying vehicles is governed, except as provided for in these general conditions, by Italian law, and is interpreted in accordance with the same. For any dispute arising from the interpretation and/or execution of this contract the competent court of jurisdiction is exclusively that of the registered office of the carrier. In the case of a passenger who qualifies as a consumer under current Italian law, the court of residence or domicile of the same shall have exclusive jurisdiction, provided that the consumer is resident or domiciled in a Member State of the European Union. 25) GROUP RATES There are special rates for groups, for information contact the call centre or travel agencies. 26) CARRIAGE OF GOODS Moby offices are available for any information, quotations and bookings concerning the carriage of goods (Call Centre Merci 02 57517461).

In order to travel on the Company's ships and fast vehicles, the passenger must be in possession of a regular ticket, which is proof of the conclusion of the contract for the journey indicated on the ticket. This ticket must be retained for the duration of the journey and presented at the request of the Company's control personnel.

Art. 7

EMBARKATION - DISEMBARKATION - STAY ON BOARD
Passengers with accompanying vehicles, if any, are required to present themselves at the embarkation point, with a valid ticket, at least thirty minutes before the departure of the ship or fast means of transport; after this time, embarkation will not be guaranteed. 2nd paragraph - Repealed. Embarkation and disembarkation of vehicles accompanying passengers shall be carried out by the passenger himself. Embarking and disembarking operations take place according to the order and criteria established from time to time by the on-board Command. Embarkation of the vehicle is subordinate not only to the performance of the voyage, but also to the requirements of the ship and any other requirements in any case connected to the navigability of the ship and the safety of navigation. All this at the unquestionable judgement of the Command as provided for by the regulations on the subject, even in the event that an agreement regarding “space reservation” (booking) has been made between the passenger and the Company. The boarding, stay on board and disembarkation of passengers and vehicles are governed by the law, by the provisions issued by the ship's Command in relation to particular situations, as well as by the following provisions:
  • a. except as provided for in the second paragraph of art. 192 of the Navigation Code, the embarkation of passengers manifestly suffering from serious diseases or, in any case, dangerous for the safety of navigation, and for the safety of the persons on board, is subject to the authorisations given by the competent Health Authorities;
  • b. even if there is no danger to the safety of navigation and the safety of persons on board, for the embarkation of passengers who are manifestly in such a physical condition as to make sea voyages inadvisable, medical certification authorising the voyage shall be required in the interest of the passengers themselves;
  • c. no passengers in an obvious state of agitation or in an obvious and harassing state of drunkenness will be allowed on board;
  • d. it is compulsory to use for maritime transport in relation to the peculiarities of such transport, vehicles that are efficient in every part, especially with regard to the braking, rolling, suspension and, where applicable, lashing parts;
  • e. it is compulsory to present vehicles for embarkation with the cargo packed, arranged and rigged in a workmanlike manner and with the arrangements and any storage systems required by the type of goods and the type of vehicle, all in accordance with criteria suitable for transport by sea;
  • f. is compulsory for drivers of accompanying vehicles:
  • - Engage a low gear and fully apply the parking brake;
  • - remove the keys from the dashboard and switch off all electrical equipment;
  • - switch off the alarm system;
  • - for motor homes and caravans, close all gas shutoff valves and switch off electrical equipment;
  • - the state in which the vehicle is left must comply with the rules laid down by the Maritime Authority.
  • g. it is compulsory to declare the carriage of vehicles fuelled by LPG/methane or other gases to the ship's command before embarkation.
The carriage of refrigerated vehicles is subject to the rules of RINA (Italian Naval Registry), as well as to the regulations issued on the matter by the competent authority, rules that prohibit the use of energy sources on board the vehicles themselves. The Company reserves the right, at the request of the passenger, with whom the vehicle is travelling, and within the limits of the ship's availability, to supply on-board electrical energy, provided that the vehicles are equipped with the special explosion-proof plug. In the case of the supply of electricity on board, any interruption in the supply of said energy by the ship for any reason or cause whatsoever, none excluded and excepted, or variations in voltage, does not entail responsibility for the Command and, on its behalf, for the Company, as the passenger acknowledges that the connection with the on-board system takes place at his/her own risk and, under his/her responsibility, also in relation to third parties. The supply of energy may also be suspended by the Command on board in the event that the engine of the refrigerated vehicle is not, in the opinion of said Command, functioning properly and does not offer adequate guarantees of safety for the cargo and the ship. For their own safety, passengers are required to comply with the safety instructions given by signs, audio messages as well as directly communicated by the ship's personnel.

Art. 8

LUGGAGE
Each passenger is entitled to carry 20 kg gross of hand luggage free of charge when travelling on ferries and 10 kg when travelling on high-speed vessels. Children paying half fare are granted half of the allowance, i.e. 10 kg. in the case of ferries and 5 in the case of high-speed vessels. Belongings which, for the passenger's personal use, are routinely transported in suitcases, travel bags, boxes and the like are considered and accepted as baggage. If other items are included in baggage, the passenger owes double the fare for the carriage of such items, plus compensation for damages. Commercial travellers' samples up to a limit of 20 kg are also allowed as baggage. The Company declines all liability for the theft of objects and/or luggage left unattended. With regard to the liability of the Company, the regulations set forth in Articles 411 and 412 of the Navigation Code are applicable.

Art. 9

LEGAL LIEN ON LUGGAGE
The Company has a legal lien on the baggage for claims against the passenger arising from the contract of carriage. When the passenger fulfils his obligations, the Company is obliged to deliver the luggage to the place determined by the contract. If the passenger does not fulfil his obligations, pursuant to Article 416 of the Navigation Code, the Company has the right to proceed with the sale of the baggage in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Code (Articles 1515, 2797 of the Civil Code and 83 of its implementing provisions).

The transport of pets and their maintenance are the responsibility of their owners. The carriage of pets accompanying passengers is also governed by the relevant health regulations of the competent authorities. The passenger undertakes to indemnify the Company from any liability and burden that may be incurred by the Company as a consequence or effect of his/her failure to comply with the aforementioned regulations, as well as with the laws on the subject. The Company shall not be liable for losses that may occur to domestic animals if the event is due to a cause not attributable to it. Other animals may only be transported on ferries using special, duly approved vehicles and on journeys and times agreed in advance with the Company.

Art. 11

1. GENERAL ASPECTS: The company AFH S.p.a. (hereinafter also referred to as the Company) undertakes the carriage of persons, their luggage and accompanying vehicles in accordance with these General Conditions, which are considered known and accepted by anyone purchasing or using tickets for the Company. For that which is not regulated by these General Conditions, the transport of persons, their luggage and accompanying vehicles is governed exclusively by Italian law and by the relevant international conventions ratified and made executive by Italy.

2. VALIDITY: the ticket is personal, non-transferable and valid only for the carriage specified therein. The Passenger is obliged to diligently keep the contract/ticket in order to justify his right to travel and to show it to any Ship's Officer or Company official who may request it. A Passenger without a ticket must notify the Master and/or Purser immediately. Failing this, he/she will be required to pay double the price of the passage to the port of destination, without prejudice, however, to compensation for damages.
3. PASSAGE PRICES: The price indicated in the passage ticket is that of the carrier's tariff in force on the date of its issue. Ticket prices include carriage by sea.
They do not include the cost of cancelling the trip, nor the cost of booking or changing tickets, which may be required by the Company's Travel Agencies or agencies. Meals are not included in the price of passage. Their payment will be made directly on board. Rights, expenses and fees for embarking and disembarking passengers and accompanying vehicles, which are not included in the passage price, will be settled in the same ticket under a separate item.

The reductions granted by the Company are published in the information leaflets distributed periodically and on the Company's website. .
5. OPEN-DATE TICKETS: Open-date tickets are valid six months from the date of issue. Reservations and the corresponding seat allocation on board for the desired date, particularly during the high season, must be requested well in advance. In all cases, passage is subject to the availability of a seat on board. Passengers are required to settle any differences in fares upon boarding.
6. LOST TICKETS: The loss or theft of a ticket must be reported promptly to the Port Agencies, who will arrange for it to be frozen.
In the event of theft, the Passenger, on the day of departure, will obtain, at the boarding gate and upon presentation of the report drawn up by the competent Authority, a duplicate of the ticket without further payment of the fare. In the event that the passenger, after theft, renounces the trip, reimbursement of the ticket must be requested from the company, under penalty of forfeiture, within 180 days. In the event of loss, on the day of departure, the Passenger, by repaying the full amount of the ticket, will be able to obtain a duplicate of the original ticket at the embarkation point, using the same accommodations that were previously allocated. After a period of 180 days has elapsed without the lost ticket being used, the Company will proceed with the reimbursement.
7. CANCELLATIONS, DECLASIONS AND REFUNDS: The cancellation and downgrading of a ticket with a fixed seat shall be subject to the following penalties:
- from the day following the date of issue and up to 7 days before departure: penalty of 10% of the ticket price;
- from 6 days to the day before departure: penalty of 25% of the ticket price;
- the day of departure: penalty of 50% of the ticket price.
Passengers who, without having cancelled their trip in advance, do not present themselves for embarkation or do not board the vessel scheduled and indicated on the embarkation card are not entitled to a refund, even partial, of the price paid and must in fact complete payment of the passage price if they had not paid it in full.
The aforementioned deductions shall be applied to the total of the Passenger fares, booked vehicles and related surcharges and taxes. The date and time of cancellation must be noted on the ticket by the company or travel agency that issued the ticket. The calculation of the time limit starts on the day following the date of cancellation and includes the date of departure. No reimbursement is due to those who cancel/cancel less than two hours before the scheduled departure, to those who do not present themselves at the time established for embarkation without having given prior notice to the Company of the occurrence of one of the circumstances envisaged by Article 400 of the Code of Navigation, as well as to those who communicate partial cancellations only when checking in for embarkation. In the event of cancellation of a ticket that has already been modified, the most onerous penalty assessed according to the date on which the modifications were made will be applied.
Refunds are made in the country where the ticket was issued, via the issuing office, provided that the date of cancellation is recorded in the computerised procedure or is confirmed in writing, with stamp and signature of the person responsible, by the office at the port of embarkation. Return “open date” tickets may be refunded within the terms of their validity, subject to a penalty of 10%.
8. CHECK-IN AND BOARDING: Timetables and itineraries indicated in the illustrative brochures are indicative and may be subject to change: before going to boarding, Passengers are invited to check the timetables and itineraries of their chosen journey at the Company's head office or agencies or on the Company's website.
The Company, in cases of objective necessity and/or force majeure, has the right to cancel the announced departure, to add or omit stopovers; to start the journey from a port other than the established one, to assign the ship to another line, to anticipate or delay the departure date. In the event that departure is delayed for more than 12 hours with respect to the scheduled departure time, the Passenger will have the right to terminate the contract and obtain reimbursement of the price relating to the unused passage, less the agency commission.
The Master, for the cases foreseen by the Navigation Code and for cases of objective necessity and/or force majeure, has full authority to proceed without pilot, to tow and assist other ships in any circumstance, to deviate from the ordinary route in any direction, for any distance and any purpose as per his duties as Master, as foreseen by the Navigation Code and International Conventions, and in this sense to touch both before and after departure any port or ports that may or may not be on the ship's itinerary, even if in the opposite direction or beyond the usual route, either by going backwards or forwards in any order for any purpose, one or more times, to transfer the Passenger and the vehicle to any other ship or means of transport, whether or not belonging to the Company, bound for the port of destination. The times of departure and arrival specified by the Company shall be understood as “pilot/pilot”. The time of arrival, if specified in the ticket, or otherwise communicated by the Company or its agents is purely indicative and the carrier is not liable for any delay due to unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure; more specifically, the carrier will not be liable for any damage caused to the Passenger by the delay or non-execution of the carriage if the event is the result of unforeseeable circumstances, force majeure, adverse weather and sea conditions, strikes and technical failures constituting force majeure or other causes not attributable to the carrier and in any case in compliance with the provisions of Articles 402, 403, 404 and 408 of the Navigation Code. Passengers with tickets do not have to embark directly, but must present themselves at the embarkation station at least three hours prior to departure (also valid for groups): after this time, the Company reserves the right to cancel the corresponding bookings and to accept other passengers waiting. Passengers will be given a boarding pass that must be validated for boarding by the Border Police office. Passengers must be in possession of a passport or other recognised document, visas and any required international vaccination certificates. The company is not liable in the event of missed departure due to documents that are not in order for expatriation, therefore no reimbursement is provided.
9. LOADING AND UNLOADING OF VEHICLES: All vehicles are to be considered as “not carrying goods”. Vehicle lengths are to be considered overall, including towbars, drawbars or other. Camper vans, caravans, off-road vehicles or any other vehicles with an overall height of more than 1.80 m from the ground, must be indicated at the time of booking and appear on the ticket. Failure to comply with the above may result in the cancellation of the booking and consequent non-boarding, automatic placement on the waiting list for the day, and boarding on the ship will only be authorised if there is garage space available and upon payment of the fare difference due. Vehicles will be called for boarding in the order that will be ordered by the Master of the vessel and/or his aides and agents. Vehicle embarkation operations, including their arrangement in the place assigned on board (each vehicle must be parked with the engine and lights off, as well as with the handbrake on and gear engaged), disembarkation operations as well as any transfer of the vehicle from the parking place to the ship and/or any transfer of the vehicle from the ship to the parking place are always carried out at the sole care, risk and responsibility of the Passenger, even when he/she receives manoeuvring advice from the ship's personnel, except in the case of proven defect of the state of the place/ship. The Passenger is also exclusively responsible for any damage to their vehicle, to the goods and luggage contained therein, to their person as well as to the persons present in the vehicle. The Passenger is also exclusively liable for any damage caused to third parties, their vehicles, goods and luggage. The vehicle, including any trailer and/or caravan, with its contents, is accepted by the carrier as a single load unit without declaration of value. Therefore, any liability of the carrier for loss of and/or damage to the vehicle shall not exceed the limit set out in Article 423 of the Italian Civil Code, except in the case of liability due to wilful misconduct or gross negligence. Any Passenger wishing to declare the value of the accompanying vehicle must formalise this in writing prior to booking; the cost of transporting the vehicle will depend on the declared value.
10. RULES TO BE OBSERVED BY THE PASSENGER: The passenger is obliged to observe the prescriptions of Italian and foreign laws as well as any regulations of the Company concerning the passage contract. Furthermore, the Passenger is directly liable to the Company for all infringements, harassment, fines and expenses to which, due to his actions, the Company is subjected by the port authorities, customs, health and/or any other authority of any country. It is also agreed that minors must be kept under the supervision of their parents and/or persons in charge and may not circulate on the ship unaccompanied. In the event of an emergency, Passengers must place themselves at the disposal of the Master and Officers and must carry out the orders and prescriptions they receive in a disciplined manner. Passengers are obliged, at their own care, expense and responsibility, to check, prior to embarkation, their documents with the appropriate Police Authorities in order to ascertain that they are suitable for entry into the country of disembarkation. The company will not reimburse Passengers who are not authorised by the border police to embark or disembark because they have been found to have documents that are not suitable for expatriation; the company reserves the right to claim against the Passenger for any costs and/or penalties that it may receive as a consequence of the aforementioned circumstances.
11. HEALTH CONDITIONS OF THE PASSENGER: The Captain has the right to refuse passage to anyone who, in the opinion of the Company, is in such a physical or mental condition that they are unable to undertake the voyage or to anyone who, due to the abuse of drugs, hallucinogens, alcohol, illness or infirmity, is dangerous for the other passengers. In all the aforementioned cases, the Passenger shall not be entitled to compensation for damages and shall be liable for damages caused to the ship, to all its equipment and fittings, to third parties and to third parties' property. The acceptance of the Passenger on board by the Company shall not be considered as a waiver of any of its rights to subsequently assert its reservations on the conditions of the Passenger whether or not these were known to the Company at the time of embarkation and/or departure of the ship. In the event that the aforementioned condition of the Passenger is discovered during navigation, the ship's captain will take the measures required by law.
12. PREGNANT WOMEN: Since ships are not equipped to assist with pregnancy and childbirth, passengers who, on the date of travel, have completed the 24th week of pregnancy cannot be accepted for embarkation. Pregnant passengers who have not completed their 24th week of pregnancy may embark only upon written notification of their condition to the ship and presentation of a medical certificate issued no later than 72 hours prior to departure expressly authorising the trip, which must be presented to the ship's officer. Embarkation implies acceptance by the passenger of the risks connected with the absence on board of assistance (of a specialised type) and facilities suitable for handling any emergencies related to the condition of pregnancy, as well as the specific nature of carriage by sea with consequent difficulty of access to external assistance, with consequent indemnity and exoneration of any and all responsibility on the part of AFH S.p.A. and all its personnel.13. EXPLOSIVES, FLAMMABLE AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES: It is strictly forbidden for the Passenger to include in their baggage or in their belongings stowed on board vehicles industrial residues or explosive and/or flammable substances or otherwise dangerous to the safety of the ship, the cargo or the safety of other Passengers and crew members. In the event of an established breach of this prohibition, the Master is authorised to seize or destroy such substances without the Passenger being entitled to claim any indemnity. The Passenger will also be held responsible for the consequences of the infringement of this prohibition.
14. WEAPONS: Passengers upon embarkation are obliged to hand over in custody to the Captain all weapons and/or firearms in their possession. In case of non-compliance, offenders will be liable to confiscation of the weapons and referral to the competent Judicial Authority.

Baggage not handed over to the carrier must contain only items for the Passenger's personal use. All valuables, jewellery, cash, traveller's cheques, etc. may be deposited in the ship's safety deposit boxes or, failing this, handed over in a closed and sealed envelope to the Purser who will issue a receipt for the envelope without checking its contents. If it is ascertained that the baggage not handed over to the Carrier contains objects not for personal use, the Passenger must pay three times the fare for the carriage of such objects in addition to compensation for damages. In any case, it is agreed that the liability of the carrier for baggage and objects not handed over to the carrier is also limited to the maximum amount resulting from any written declaration of value issued by the Passenger, provided that the latter has paid the higher freight. Otherwise, the limit of Art. 412 c.n. shall apply.
16. LOSS AND/OR BREAKAGE OF BAGGAGE AND PERSONAL PROPERTY OR VEHICLE: The loss and/or breakage of the passenger's baggage and other personal belongings or of the vehicle accompanied by the passenger must be reported by the passenger to the Master of the ship or to the agents and/or officers of the Company in the port of disembarkation - under penalty of forfeiture - at the time of delivery if it is an apparent loss or breakage, or within three days of delivery if it is not apparent. For luggage and objects not handed over by the Passenger to the carrier, the latter is not liable for loss and/or damage unless the Passenger proves that such loss and/or damage was caused by a cause attributable to the carrier. In any case, the carrier is not liable for loss and/or damage attributable to acts of vandalism by third parties.17. ACCOMMODATION: The Passenger will occupy the seat indicated in the ticket and if not available the one indicated to him by the Captain or the Purser. The Company, in case of objective necessity, has the right to assign the Passenger to a different seat. In the event that the seat assigned is of a higher type, no difference in fare will be requested, whereas if the new seat is of a lower type, the Passenger will be paid the difference paid in excess, without prejudice to the Passenger's right to terminate the contract in accordance with the law. Cabins must be vacated at least two hours prior to arrival at the port.
18. DOGS AND CATS: The transport of pets, dogs and cats is free of charge. Dogs must be muzzled and are kept in the kennels on board. Cats must be transported in cages. Feeding is the responsibility of the owners. Animals must have a valid international health certificate. Passengers are liable for any damage caused to property or third parties by their animals. The Carrier declines any responsibility for any seizure or suppression of animals by the Sanitary Authorities of the port of disembarkation/embarkation as well as for any damage to animals, for their escape, loss or death occurring during transport or during embarkation and disembarkation, except in the event of proven cases of wilful misconduct and/or fault attributable to the Carrier. However, the Passenger is always required to behave appropriately and diligently in order to avoid and/or prevent such problems.
19. JURISDICTION, APPLICABLE LAW AND COURT OF JURISDICTION: The contract of carriage governed by these General Conditions is subject to Italian jurisdiction and is governed by Italian law.
