Cancel 7 or more days before your trip for a 50% deposit refund; with less than 7 days notice the deposit is retained. If the port is officially closed by authorities you get a full refund or a free reschedule. In high season (Oct-Dec) deposits convert to a credit voucher valid 24 months, transferable to family or friends. An optional $50 protection add-on lets you reschedule up to 48 hours before departure. Full details on our Cancellation Policy page and the live weather report.
