Pricing Details
- Cabin rates begin with a non-refundable deposit and “Cabin Guarantee” status where the ship assigns the cabin based on the selected cabin category. You may choose a fare where you can select a specific cabin number or location however the fare will be higher.
- Special Promotions may be available and can change anytime.

Cruise rates do not include items such as: Airfare, any transportation costs to and from the ship, tips & gratuities, some beverages, sodas, alcoholic beverages, shore excursions/tours, insurance, optional on-board services, etc. unless specified.
Double occupancy pricing explained. Cabin pricing is quoted per person/double occupancy meaning the price calculation per person is based on two people occupying the cabin.
Example If you were to stay at a hotel and the price was $150 per night for the room … as a single person in the room you would pay the entire amount of $150 while if there were two people staying in the room, the cost would be split between the 2 people and the cost would be $75 to each person ($150 /2 people = $75 per person). You can occupy a cabin as a single person (single occupancy) however your cost will be double (less the 2nd set of tax and port charges) as you will be paying for the entire cabin yourself.
