tdh8359 Posted November 17, 2011 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I need to reschedule my upcoming cruise, I've booked a cruise Jan 30, 2012, it's paid in full (early saver), my understanding is I have until the final payment due date (Dec 1st) to reschedule for a $50 pp fee. My main question is what if I wait until after that date to reschedule, what kinda of fee or penalty is it to reschedule then, the same or different? I've heard different things and am getting more confused. My dad is real sick and I will not go on the cruise with him like this in case something happens. Any help will be appreciated.

Refer to the plan description for specific terms, conditions and exclusions. Total Fare is defined as Cruise Fare, Air Fare Supplement, Transfer Services and Pre-/Post-Cruise Vacation Packages. *The deposit is non-refundable. ^For Cruises-To-Nowhere, the cancellation charge is 25% of the total fare. Government fees/taxes are excluded from cancellation penalties. For special 3/4/5th guest rates, if the cancellation penalty exceeds the rate, the penalty will be equivalent to that rate.

We recommend the purchase of trip cancellation insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare shof515 Posted November 17, 2011 #4 Share Posted November 17, 2011 From what i read in similar posts, there is no way to reschedule a cruise. The only way it is possible is to do a cancel and rebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you hit the date of final payment, standard cancellation penalties apply to all bookings, no matter what fare. Be sure to reschedule .. the day BEFORE final payment.
