Roccaforte Posted June 8, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 8, 2022 I just booked a cruise on Splendor. Under guest cancellation schedule the first line item is “121 days or more prior to departure $100.” Does this mean that as soon as I book and make the first deposit the $100 fee kicks in if I cancel , even though the cruise is a year away? I’m told it can be applied to a future cruise but this is a first for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FengShui@Sea Posted June 8, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Yes, that is exactly what it means. However, at least Regent let’s you apply the $100 ‘admin’ fee to any other reservation as long as it is before final payment. I have a cruise in October that I have applied five different admin fees to, so that is a total of $1,000 as the $100 fee is charged per person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcsdkqh Posted June 8, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Standard cancellation policy is well documented on the Regent website and has been in place forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you book onboard, you have 30 days (after debarkation) to cancel without the $100 penalty / admin fee. So, depending on when "just booked" occurred, you can cancel and get a full refund.

bryeden Posted June 8, 2022 #5 Share Posted June 8, 2022 This does not happen if you are from the UK, the deposit is 20% of the fare and is lost if you cancel up to 180.days before the cruise. I really annoys me that non US passengers are treated as second class citizens. I do not understand why all passengers are not treated the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often the deposit is lowered to 10%, but again forfeited if the guest cancels. The only way for U K cruisers to avoid this penalty is by booking whilst on board or up to 30 days prior to a Regent cruise. This has been difficult to do over the last 2 years 🤨 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ronrick1943 Posted June 8, 2022 #7 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Have to agree, it is what it is————remember once you book you’ve taken suite out of the sells pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regent significantly changed one of the itineraries making it unacceptable. Over a two year period my two nieces each scheduled their weddings which conflicted with bookings. My golden retriever developed cancer. Life happens. The suites for every cruise we have taken, or have currently booked, with Regent were priced at $2,000 or more a night, so cry me a river. It is the cost of doing business, but they and my agent are well compensated in the fares we pay. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
