Cancellation Policy
Please note that the cancellation policy at royalecruises.com may vary depending on the cruise line, selected package, and the timing of your cancellation. While we’ve outlined some general guidelines below, we strongly recommend verifying the specific terms at the time of booking.
General Guidelines:
- Cruise Line Policies Apply:
- Each cruise line maintains its own cancellation policy. As royalecruises.com operates as a booking agent, those policies are typically passed directly to the customer.
- Penalties often increase as the departure date nears, using a sliding scale structure.
- Time-Based Cancellation Penalties:
- Early cancellations may be eligible for minimal fees or a full refund, depending on the cruise line.
- Late cancellations — especially close to the sailing date — may incur significant penalties, including the loss of the full fare.
- Package & Cruise Type Variations:
- Promotional fares, holiday cruises, group bookings, and peak-season packages often carry stricter cancellation terms.
- royalecruises.com’s Role:
- In addition to cruise line penalties, royalecruises.com may charge a small administrative fee for handling cancellations.
- We recommend contacting our support team directly to understand any applicable fees and receive clarification on the cruise line’s policies.
Important Recommendations:
- Thoroughly Review Terms:
- Carefully read all terms and conditions before confirming your reservation.
- Pay close attention to the cancellation policy outlined in your booking agreement.
- Consider Travel Insurance:
- Travel insurance can help protect you from unexpected cancellations due to illness, emergencies, or other unforeseen events.
- Ensure your policy specifically includes cruise travel coverage.
