When does the balance of my cruise need to be paid?
Paying for your cruise – quick & easy
We want everything about your cruise to be smooth sailing—including making your payment!
When to pay
Your cruise balance is due no later than 90 days before departure.
If you’re booking within 90 days of sailing, the full amount will be payable at the time of booking.
For longer cruises (28 days or more), we kindly ask for an additional 15% deposit to be paid at least 180 days before departure.
If you booked with a Travel Agent, please refer to your documents for their payment dates and terms.
