Smartcookie Posted June 1, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 1, 2007 We're considering a group cruise (on Azamara actually, to Bermuda), but one of the members of our group wants to fly to Bermuda, stay on the ship 3 nights with her husband in their cabin, then fly home...she is perfectly willing and expects to pay the full cruise fare, my question is, will the cruiseline allow her to do this? Has anyone done this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted June 1, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I would doubt they would be able to join the ship in Bermuda. They may be able to work it out to fly home from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptData Posted June 1, 2007 #3 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Sorry but this is going to be an all or none situ. For one thing if you read the contract if you do not board the ship at the begining of the cruise you are considered to have cancelled without notice and you do not get your money back. So the room they had may be used as an upgrade for someone else. There is also charges involved for allow pax to leave early except certain medical situations. One lady left in Maui and it cost her an extra $400.00/person. This was for a medical reason if it had been just because it would have been $1000.00/person. I spoke to her because she has the same problem I do but I was having no problems at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smartcookie Posted June 1, 2007 Author #4 Share Posted June 1, 2007 But what about people who miss embarkation because of a late flight, then call the cruiseline and get a flight to the first port, they allow them to embark and don't cancel them, don't they? Also, they can't use the room to upgrade someone, her husband will be in the room. As I said, she doesn't want her money back, she expects to pay the full cruisefare, she just wants to be able to fly there. The ships entertainers embark and disembark in port all the time. I have heard of people who've missed embarkation and caught up at the first port, do they really charge them full fare for that? I guess I'll have to call the cruiseline.

Rare Keith1010 Posted June 2, 2007 #5 Share Posted June 2, 2007 To the OP, yes, you should call the cruise line to get the answer from them. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted June 2, 2007 #6 Share Posted June 2, 2007 You definitely have to pre-arrange such a situation with the cruise line. Please let us know what they tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuizer2 Posted June 3, 2007 #7 Share Posted June 3, 2007 We're considering a group cruise (on Azamara actually, to Bermuda), but one of the members of our group wants to fly to Bermuda, stay on the ship 3 nights with her husband in their cabin, then fly home...she is perfectly willing and expects to pay the full cruise fare, my question is, will the cruiseline allow her to do this? Has anyone done this? Is there a reason you have not called the cruise line and ask the cruise line this question? Seems to me the best place to get your answer.
