Please click here if your cruise was canceled by the cruise line due to COVID-19
If you are canceling your booking prior to your final payment, there is no penalty to cancel unless you have booked a specific promotion with a non-refundable deposit and/or fare.
The following promotions have a non-refundable deposit and/or fare at time of booking and will be penalized as such. Within Carnival's standard cancellation penalty period, regular penalties will apply.
- Early Saver and Early Saver Last Call: The deposit is non-refundable at any time after the booking is made. All cancellations that occur prior to the final payment due date will receive a non-refundable and non-transferable future cruise credit in US dollars in the amount of the deposit less a $50 USD per person service fee. The future cruise credit must be used on a cruise within 24 months from the date of cancellation and can only be applied to your cruise fare. Any unused portion will be forfeited. Within a penalty period, the penalty will be applied and the balance will be refunded.
- Promos with Refundable Deposit: The deposit is refundable prior to final payment. Within penalty period, penalty will be applied and balance will be refunded.
- Super Saver: The deposit is non-refundable at any time after the booking is made. Within penalty period, penalty will be applied and balance will be refunded.
- Pack & Go: 100% of Total Fare is non-refundable any time after the booking is made. Within penalty period, penalty will be applied and balance will be refunded.
- Fly2Fun Restricted Air: Air supplement is non-refundable at the time of booking.
Once your booking is within Carnival's cancellation penalty period, the amount of penalty will increase as the cruise departure approaches. When calculating the days prior to sailing, the day of sailing should not be considered as one of the days. The day of sailing is considered the first day of the cruise.
