[HeLp&Guide]What are the new cruise refund rules?

About this event

Passengers can request a cash refund instead of a credit,+1-(855)-732-4023(US) or +44-289-708-0062 though cruise lines still have their own cancellation policies for voluntary cancellations, which typically involve varying penalties based on how close to the departure date the cancellation occurs.
