Cruise / Tour Interruption Fees – If you have to interrupt your tour or cruise en route, you may be entitled to a refund for the unused land portion if it exceeds 24 hours; certain restrictions apply. Such refunds are based upon the number of overnights missed less a fee of $40 per person per day for unused transportation and other fixed expenses.


Partial Room Cancellation – A person who cancels or leaves a tour or cruise while a roommate remains constitutes a cancellation of one type of accommodation and rebooking of another. The price charged the remaining person is the new, higher price for the new accommodation.


Single Rooms & Cabins – Since hotel and cabin rates are per room, the cruise price for cabins occupied by one person is higher than those where two or more persons share the cost of a room or cabin. In Europe, most single rooms are smaller than double rooms and only have one bed. Special single rates are available on select departures of select journeys as noted on individual tour pages; these special single rates are not transferable to other departure dates.
