POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Cruise and Vacation Paradise (a Cruise Planners/American Express franchise) [CVP] is a full service travel business but is merely a selling agent for the individual cruise lines.  We make no warranties express or implied. CVP is not responsible for last minute changes of price or itinerary by the cruise line, or any errors or omissions displayed on this or any page.

Please be advised that any special amenities or events associated with this cruise are for guests booked through CVP only. 

Minimum Deposits:

$200 per cabin will be charged for a cabin with one or two passengers.


Cancellation fees:

Our agency never charges cancellation fees.  Carnival Cruise Lines, however, does impose a per-person cancellation fee based on the date of cancellation.  Their current policy is:

60-46 days prior to sailing: $200 per person
45-31 days prior to sailing: 50% of total charges
30-16 days prior to sailing: 75% of total charges
15 days or less of the sailing: 100% of total charges

We strongly urge that you purchase travel insurance. Information will be supplied to you when a CVP agent contacts you.

Additional administrative policies:

Depending upon the proximity to the sailing date, there may be a change fee assessed by the cruise line for any changes made to your reservation. Once booked, the cabin is jointly "owned" by all passengers registered in it. In the event
that one person cancels, the remaining person(s) is(are) financially responsible for the total cost of that cabin. Remember, cabin prices are per person based on double occupancy. Any refunds, in this circumstance, must be negotiated between the persons responsible for the cabin.
