Royal Caribbean Group extends Cruise with Confidence

Royal Caribbean Group has extended its Cruise with Confidence programme. Now, all cruises booked by January 31, 2021 can be cancelled 48 hours before boarding through to April 2022, except for Celebrity Cruises which has applied the rule until May 4, 2022.

The company will continue to offer its ‘best price guarantee’ and ‘lift and shift’.

• “Best Price Guarantee”: Guests can choose to change the price and promotional offer on their reservation up to 48 hours before their cruise.
• “Lift and Shift”: This option is ideal for those guests wishing to move their vacation plans to next year. Eligible between now and January 31, 2021, guests can protect their original cruise fare and promotional offering by shifting to a future sailing on the same itinerary type, sailing length, stateroom category, and within the same 4-week period of their original cruise date same-time-next-year. Bookings for 2021 sail dates may shift to 2022 only on current deployment open through April 30, 2022 (May 4, 2022 for Celebrity).

“We want our guests to feel they can safely keep their existing cruise bookings or schedule new sailings, because this policy gives them more freedom and flexibility,” says Royal Caribbean Group chairman and CEO Richard Fain.
