RESERVATIONS AND PAYMENTS Once you have decided on your holiday, simply ask your Cruiseco Travel Agent to book it with us. On confirmation of your booking, a written confirmation will be sent to your Cruiseco Travel Agent. An option will be given for 3-7 days and before the option expires it will be necessary for you to pay a deposit. The deposit amount required to secure your holiday may depend on the length of your cruise. A minimum deposit of $1200 per person will apply. Your Cruiseco travel agent will advise you at the time of booking, should any additional deposit amount be required and when they are due. This deposit secures your cruise berth and hotel room. Final payment is due 100 days prior to departure from Australia. If your booking is made within 100 days of departure from Australia, full payment will be due immediately. Failure to pay the deposit by the option due date may result in the cancellation of your booking. Any special meal requirements will be made on a “request” basis only and cannot be guaranteed.

A fee of $25.00 per person will be charged for any revision or alteration made to a reservation after the booking is confirmed.
