Registration Steps
Step 1
- Be aware that because the Council of the Haida Nation and other coastal First Nations request that visitors to their regions be fully vaccinated, SALTS will require proof of vaccination for Haida Gwaii and Central Coast voyages (Trip 3 Pacific Grace, Trip 4 Pacific Grace and Trip 4 Pacific Swift).
- Submit your TRIP REQUEST through the link above with your trip choices in order of preference. You will be assigned to your highest preference trip with an available berth. You can accept a trip assignment and also be on the wait list for a preferred trip.
- Pay the registration fee of $150 (if you have a credit from a previous year, you will receive separate instructions).
Step 2
- Receive your trip assignment offer or wait list notification email.
- Pay the first trip fee payment or submit your bursary application at this time. Those with a credit, will receive an account statement with details about any remaining balance and payment options.
- Receive your reservation confirmation email!
Step 3
- In the spring of 2024, you will receive instructions to complete your online trainee profile and waiver form(s) along with boarding & disembarking details, travel tips and the travel sharing list for your trip, if you choose to share your contact information with other SALTS trainees.
- When your Trainee Profile and waiver forms are complete, you will receive an email to confirm your registration for your Summer 2024 SALTS voyage!
SALTS strongly recommends the purchase of private travel insurance to cover trip cancellation or interruption due to medical or other unexpected circumstances.
