Bookings can typically be rescheduled or canceled with a full refund if requested at least 24 hours in advance, and the operator will proactively issue refunds or reschedule if severe weather forces a cancellation.

Restroom access is limited to public facilities in the Chicago Cultural Center or nearby hotel lobbies at the start and end of the route, so it is recommended to use the facilities before departure.
