REFUND AND RESCHEDULING POLICY
All sales are final. No refunds, reissue to gift cards, or rescheduling is permitted unless TRIP PROTECTION is purchased AT THE TIME OF SALE. Any add-ons (including but not limited to food or merchandise) not redeemed during a booked cruise cannot be refunded, exchanged, or applied to a future cruise.

Trip Protection must be purchased at the time of purchase. Trip Protection allows for cancellations or rescheduling (subject to availability) of tickets 30 minutes prior to departure time, for any reason.

Refunds will be reimbursed for the full amount of each ticket and any unredeemed add-ons, less the Trip Protection and processing fees.
Rescheduling to a less expensive cruise will generate a partial refund. Rescheduling to a more expensive cruise will require an upgrade fee.
Trip Protection is voided and no refunds will be issued if 1) guest(s) arrive and check into the cruise, or 2) guest(s) are no shows without notifying us 30 minutes prior to departure time.
