Payment Schedule:

A cruise fare payment schedule will be set up for the ease of each passenger. If you prefer to pay in full, that is fine as well. The schedule can be customized if requested, otherwise it will look like this:

Initial Deposit at the time of registration: $500 / $700 with Universal Package

November 10th: $300 /$550

December 10th: $300 / $550

January 10th: $300 / $550

February 10th: $300 / $550

*If you join after November, we'll adjust the schedule based on the number of months until February 10th. 

If you choose to do the cruise only, the pre-stay hotel will need to be added and paid in full before the 90 prior to travel. This needs to be done in a group of 4 to split the room, otherwise the number of girls in the room will split the cost. 

Occupancy:

With the nature of a trip like this, occupancy is a critical component to determine the price per person. This is why cancellation can really affect the other attendants and why the deposit is non-refundable. Because of this, it's important that you are planning and aware of the occupancy of the cruise stateroom and the pre-stay room. You need 2 passengers in each cruise stateroom onboard the Utopia of the Seas. For the Universal resort pre-stay and the Universal pre-stay package, the occupancy for the room will be 4. It's important that the room is filled so please plan with friends to fill the room. If you'd like to join and don't have a full room, please reach out and we'll see what the numbers look like and if we can piece a full room together. 

Cancellation policy:

We understand that plans can change, but please be aware that due to the nature of group bookings, cancellations impact the entire group’s arrangements. To ensure a smooth process for everyone, the following cancellation terms apply:

  1. Nonrefundable Deposits:

    • Cruise Portion: A $500 nonrefundable deposit is required to secure your spot on the cruise.
    • Universal Orlando Package: A $200 nonrefundable deposit is required for the Universal Orlando portion of the trip.
  2. Refund Policy:

    • For the cruise portion, if you cancel more than 90 days prior to travel, any payments made beyond the nonrefundable deposit will be refunded.
    • For the Universal Orlando Package, cancellations made more than 50 days prior to travel are eligible for a refund of payments made beyond the nonrefundable deposit.
  3. Refund Issuance:

    • All refunds (if applicable) will be processed at the final payment due date.
  4. Final Payments:

    • Any outstanding balances must be paid by the due date indicated. Failure to make final payments on time will result in cancellation and forfeiture of any deposits made.
 
If you have a group that would like to attend but wants to make a change with the room category onboard Utopia of the Seas or with the Universal package, please reach out. We will do our best to accommodate.
