Cancellation By Guest
In the unfortunate event a participant must cancel travel, notice must be given via email, which must include a return receipt and read notation, or other writing stating clearly and correctly each passenger name, ship name, start and end date of cruise and a brief statement of the reason for cancellation. Other forms of notice are not sufficient. If already issued, unused air tickets must be physically returned before they can be cancelled. Cancellation date is the date that receive the written cancellation notice and unused tickets. A name change or substitution of participant is also treated as a cancellation in that all cancellation charges apply.
