Payment Options:

The beginning minimum deposit is to show your interest and hold your spot. This does NOT berth (book) your cabin. The initial deposit of $50.00 is non-refundable. After November 29, 2025, the deposit is $150.00, and includes the admin fee of $50.00, which is non-refundable.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Full deposit amount is shown on each selection/category - see further detail there.
  • Full deposit will allow you to select/berth your cabin. We always look for the best mid-ship option first, unless otherwise specified in your request. 
  • If double occupancy or more, all parties' names and corresponding information is needed at the time of full deposit to berth the cabin (names, birthdates, etc.).
  • If a special needs cabin or a cabin occupancy of more than what the category allows is needed, please contact Cherie for assistance. 

 

The booking link allows you to set up auto pay, and the balance will be evenly split over the frequency chosen. This is based on the final payment date. 

The convenience fee is prorated over the same period. So if the total fee is 100.00, a small portion is allocated to each autopay amount.

Additional payments can also be paid using the invoice link. If additional payments are made outside of the autopay amount, the system will recalculate the payments based on the new balance. 

If you'd like to cancel autopay, the system will send an email to remind you that your payment is due a week before the date you set to be notified or the 10th of each month until the final payment date. 

If you need assistance or have additional questions, please contact Cherie for more information (see message button within your reservation or contact her at the number listed).

Here are some topics you may be curious about - 
 
  • Accessibility/Mobility Cabins:
    • We can book guests into wheelchair accessible or mobility accessible cabins (based on their specific needs).
      • The guest will need to contact Cherie directly (after submitting their initial request via the booking link).
      • Cherie will contact the appropriate department to book the specific stateroom needed.
      • There are a limited number available per category, and that department will ensure the stateroom is fully deposited and booked.
  • Health Concerns:
    • Guests with health/medical concerns will need to make sure that that information is communicated via the booking link. Cherie will follow up if more clarity/information is needed.
    • This link deals with guests with disabilities. Among the concerns listed are:
      • Medical Care, Diabetes, Dialysis & Oxygen
      • Guests with Mobility Limitations
      • Guests with Dietary Needs
      • And More
    • Specific to dialysis, there is no nephrologist on board or medical personnel equipped to assist a guest should a medical emergency/crisis arise. However:
      • If someone has been in treatment (and is stable) for at least 12 months, and the cruise is not more than 16 days (or 8 days for an Australian cruise), they can travel with their own hemodialysis equipment and self-administer.
      • Please Note: If there is an issue (power, ship conditions, etc.), there is no backup or way to regulate equipment, and no guarantee that they can be serviced in port within the designated timeframe.
      • If someone is on peritoneal dialysis and has all of their equipment, supplies, etc., they can sail, but again, need to be aware of the limitations as stated above.
      • In both situations, a letter from the nephrologist stating that they are able to travel is needed. More details are in the link provided above.
      • Also, please keep in mind that the mini-fridges/coolers are to keep beverages cool, but is not temperature controlled for specific parameters (e.g. if meds need to be maintained at a certain temp).
 
If you have any additional questions or concerns, just let Cherie know.
 
Friends/Family of Nicky can contact her directly, if needed. Otherwise, please direct all cruise related questions to Cherie.
