Cancelling within 90 Days of Sailing

[Jcol5786]

Hello,

 

We were to sail on Anthem out of NJ on January 2nd, 2023 on an 11 night cruise. Unfortunately, I made a mistake on my work schedule, and I just realized that I need to be back by January 10'th. My mistake. We are aware of the cancellation penalties for cancelling within 90 days but I'm wondering if it would help if we have another cruise selected that we can transfer to? I'm not looking for special treatment but if there is a better option then paying the penalty I would appreciate any suggestions.

 

Thanks

I think for $100 pp you can transfer to another cruise.

 

All of mine are group rates which are refundable deposits so I can change but since you asked I'm assuming yours are nonrefundable deposits?

Yes, and you are close enough to the final payment that you might catch a break and not need to pay the penalty (besides the $100pp fee associated with such changes).

To clarify, refundable deposit can only be changed/refunded outside of final payment date.

They are past the final payment date so they are in the 25% penalty phase

Thanks for the replies. I ended up working out my scheduling issue and will now be able to make this cruise. Looking forward to this one as it's going to several ports we haven't been to.
