Final payment for 2024 cruise

[BetsyS.]

Yesterday my stepfather and I signed up for the 2024 Voyage of the Vikings cruise. It departs Boston on 7/20/24.  In the past, final payment was always due 90 days before cruise date. We used to go in to the travel agent one week ahead of that day to make final payment.

         Yesterday our travel agent said final payment is due March 22. This is 4 months before 

cruise leaves.

          Does anyone else have final payment due 4 months before sailing?

TIA

Most of the longer and special cruises have the final payment at 4 months out. Some have penalty dates before final payment. VoV is included in the 'Special' category.

I kinda like Zuiderdam as well -- 198 days on this ship alone

richwmn - On the VoV this summer, I met a nice lady at breakfast in the Lido. 

She and her husband were on the Zuiderman this year for the World Cruise.

They live in Calif. They were on the VoV for 35 days. I didn't get her name, but 

maybe you know her.

richwmn - My stepfather and I were impressed with the library on the Zuiderdam. 

Great place to be on sea days.
