eCruising Temporary Cancellation Policy

EFFECTIVE 8 APRIL 2020

As the situation with COVID-19 continues to evolve, we fully understand the heightened travel concerns that follow, and we will continue to work with our affected guests.

Due to continued global public health circumstances, all cruiselines are having to make difficult decisions to continually suspend their voyages and we are doing all that we can to be as flexible as possible as the current situation evolves.

As of 8 April 2020, we have introduced a new ecruising.travel credit programme to help our guests that have been affected by these cancelled voyages. In replace of our standard fee of up to $250 per guest or up to 20% per booking, the newly reduced fees will be held as a credit in which guests will be able to reuse with ecruising.travel for future cruise travel bookings.
