ffnole Posted February 27, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) We have a cruise that departs Barcelona May 13....so 76 days from today. Today the cancellation penalty is 25%. Tomorrow it will increase to 50%. Unless of course the cruise is cancelled and then we would receive a 100% refund. Oceania agreed this morning in writing to push out the 25% penalty cancellation date for two weeks to March 13. That buys a couple of weeks to determine the lay of the land.....and also to see if the cruise is cancelled. We really were looking forward to this vacation....but I can’t afford the risk of being quarantined on a ship with important work obligations I need to attend to immediately after the cruise. Thought this would be helpful if you are in a similar situation. At least they showed some flexibility.

Rare LHT28 Posted February 27, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 27, 2020 JMO If you are concerned I would cancel if you are not in penalty phase It does not seem to be getting any better around the world & no one has a crystal ball where the virus will impact what Country next Latest count https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6 I see the USA is now up to 60 cases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bbtondo Posted February 28, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 28, 2020 ffnole: Has Oceania just extended the cancellation period for you? Or is this for everyone who is booked on Oceania? Is it possible to copy here what Oceania has written to you? Appreciate the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
