- Included if you book your flight through Viking

- Insurance – the prices below are per person, and are based on the gross price. If purchased up to 14 days from the date of deposit, it covers pre-existing illness. This also allows you to cancel your trip for any reason, and you retain 100% of your travel value. You will receive a voucher for a future cruise if you use “cancel for any reason” (valid for travel within 12 months of the date of issue, but no later than 15 months from the date your trip was canceled). If you cancel for covered reasons, you receive a full cash refund up to the trip cost, minus the insurance premium and $100 cancellation penalty. You have ten days after purchasing insurance to request a cancellation and a full refund. You have up to 120 days prior to departure to purchase insurance if you did not do so at time of booking.

Cancellation:
| Cancellation Received | Charges will apply |
| 121 days or more prior to time of departure | $100.00 per person |
| 120-90 days prior to time of departure | 20% of full fare |
| 89-70 days prior to time of departure | 35% of full fare |
| 69-50 days prior to time of departure | 75% of full fare |
| 49-0 days prior to time of departure | 100% of full fare |
Full Fare is defined as the full cost of any cruise, land or air component purchased from Viking, which is why trip insurance is so important because LIFE HAPPENS WHEN WE LEAST EXPECT IT.
Miscellaneous:
- Once a deposit has been made and space is confirmed, certain changes can be made with no fees incurred; i.e., change cabin category, remove air if it has not been ticketed. Name changes are not covered, and will fall under the cancellation policy.
- If you decide to change your credit card (because you get points with a different one), and want the deposit and final payment to be transferred to another card, there is a $30 fee/card, and change must be requested within 60 days of posting the credit card payment.
- You can make payments along the way, instead of one large payment on the due date.
- Viking offers a 3.3% rebate on electronic payments made from your checking or savings account. They would need your bank routing number and account number. They do not take funds from the money market or trust accounts.
Space is extremely limited. The above pricing and availability are a snapshot in time and may change by the time we book. If you are interested, please let me know...we would be delighted to have your company during this exciting cruise!!
