Rare Andi Land Posted February 4, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I’m not sure if anyone is interested but the $1 deposit is back today. I don’t see it posted yet on their website but I was able to use it for a cruise in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRDR01 Posted February 4, 2019 #3 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Booked with a $1.00 deposit. Not advertised on their website at this point, but, I did see an ad for it on Facebook as I was scrolling through. Had to actually get to the part of the booking where you leave a deposit.

newtocruiseinblue Posted February 4, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I think it is for cruises 16 days or less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawnya00 Posted February 4, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Is this normal for HAL cruises...I am seeing that the final payment is due Feb 9, 2019 for a July 2020 cruise, or is this due to the $1 deposit. HAL newbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is, when you see immediate payment required (within a few days), the fare is likely a non-refundable one. Just be sure you know the restrictions before you book.

Rare Andi Land Posted February 4, 2019 Author #10 Share Posted February 4, 2019 The cruise I booked is for May of 2020 with final payment March of 2020. Fully refundable. If you’re having difficulties or see something weird, it’s always good to call HAL for clarification. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poulsbo Cruisers Posted February 4, 2019 #12 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I believe if you are going to advertise a $1.00 deposit day, it should be for all cruises. I tried to book an April 2021 Panama Canal cruise and it didn’t apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted February 4, 2019 #13 Share Posted February 4, 2019 With a$1.00 deposit , who cares if it's non refundable. If you can't afford to lose $2.00, then you shouldn't book at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazy Kruizers Posted February 4, 2019 #15 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I got my e-mail about this $1 deposit offer around 12:30 eastern time this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAD2005 Posted February 4, 2019 #16 Share Posted February 4, 2019 With a Feb 9 final and full payment date, which would be a 5 day deadline from booking, that is definitely a non-refundable cruise. No cancellation unless you buy HAL's insurance or a 3rd party insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underwatr Posted February 5, 2019 #17 Share Posted February 5, 2019 When I booked yesterday I had the option to pay the entire cruise fare up front (it was the first option presented and I think it was the option selected by default) or to just pay the $2 deposit. I chose to pay $2 and final payment will be required ~90 days before embarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovely other Posted February 6, 2019 #18 Share Posted February 6, 2019 It was a £1 deposit for us, so I decided to take a gamble on a gap on our schedules opening up in September. 12 days on the Zuiderdam to Boston to Quebec. It’ll be our 10th wedding anniversary on the 13th September so should make for a great second honeymoon. I’m a bit nervous about the ship as we are big Koningsdam, Nieuw Statendam fans but I think we will survive 😉 ... no roll call for this one yet unfortunately 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
