Cruise Cancellation

[cariad1000]

We are booked on a Caribbean cruise 300 days away.  We need to cancel and wonder if anyone knows how much it will cost us?  We are in the UK.

 

Thank you.

Sorry for the double post.  Found this for the UK

For bookings made in the United Kingdom, Gibraltar, Ireland, Guernsey, Jersey and Isle of Man, submit written cancellations to Seabourn, 100 Harbour Parade, Southampton.SO15 1ST or ENQUIRIES@seabourn.co.uk.

Have you asked your very experienced travel agent?

Thank you for the two very helpful replies.

I believe at this stage the deposit will be lost. Could you claim on your insurance - depends on the reason for cancellation of course. Something to consider if it's feasible for you is to ask if you could transfer to a different cruise instead. They may agree to it. Or may not.

Probably so, if the deposit was 15% or less of the full fare.  I have never had a problem transferring a booking to a different date with Seabourn, but I'm not from the UK.  Check with your TA.

I am in the UK and our deposit here is generally non refundable regardless of how much was paid. In this case as I said earlier, I would try to transfer if it were feasible, but SB can refuse that and refuse any refund of deposit.
