IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING REFUND OF UNITED STATES HEAD TAX

Passengers who have paid Head Tax intending to remain in the United States over Sixty Days are, under U.S. Government Regulations, unable to claim refund of this Tax if they happen to depart before the expiration of the Sixty Days.

The Regulations also prescribe that when visitors who have not paid the Tax fail to satisfy the United States Immigration Inspector at port of arrival (whose decision is final) that they will depart from the United States within Sixty Days, they will be required to pay the Head Tax to the Purser prior to disembarkation.

 

NOTICE TO PASSENGERS - TAXI-CABS

Taxicabs are no longer permitted by the New York City Authorities to enter any City pier properties for the purpose of receiving or discharging passengers or baggage. The taxicab facilities heretofore provided on arrival day inside the pier are, therefore, no longer available. Passengers desiring taxicabs upon arrival at New York are now required to go outside the pier and make their own transportation arrangements with taxicabs.

Passengers are warned against using the services of unauthorized porters and baggage transfer men outside the pier gates in New York. Reliable baggage transfer men are available inside the piers. Authorized porters wear " Cunard White Star " blouses which are numbered.

 

PASSENGERS' MAIL - INWARD AND OUTWARD STEAMERS

Passengers expecting urgent letters or telegrams should notify the Purser's Office. For the convenience of passengers, telegrams and postal matter are received aboard and distributed but without any responsibility whatsoever on the part of Cunard White Star Limited for non-delivery, mis-delivery or delay.

Mail received for passengers addressed care of our New York Office is assembled in readiness for distribution to passengers immediately on arrival, and when leaving the ship at New York passengers are requested to enquire for mail at the mail desk, which is located on the quay side.

It will assist the system of delivery if letters are endorsed prominently in the top left-hand corner " Passengers' Mail " and addressed care of Cunard White Star at port of departure or arrival and also bear the following particulars :—

  • Name of passenger (in full).
  • Class of Travel (Inward or Outward)
  • passenger per (Name of Ship).
