Scenic Ocean Cruises Cancellation Policy

You may also be liable for cancellation fees charged by airlines and other third parties.

If you paid using a Future Travel Credit and cancel your Journey for any reason before the Departure Date — including by changing your Departure Date or a guest — you lose a portion of that credit equal to the cancellation fee you'd otherwise owe under 4.10(a).

For clarity:

• (i) Cancelling before the Departure Date still triggers the standard fees in 4.10(a). Any remaining Future Travel Credit after deductions is reissued as a new credit. You'll always be told the exact cancellation amount before it's processed.
• (ii) Any amount paid via Future Travel Credit that exceeds the applicable fee is refunded as a new Future Travel Credit, valid for 24 months from when the original credit was issued.

• The price may increase before full payment to reflect cost rises outside the company's control (airfares, fuel, taxes, exchange rates, etc.).
• You'll be notified and offered a refund/cancellation option if this happens.
• Once fully paid, the price is locked — no further increases.
• You're responsible for costs from any itinerary changes you make after Departure Time, including for illness or personal reasons.

5.1 Acknowledgement

• Travel carries general risks beyond the company's control (weather, port/lock closures, maintenance, emergencies, etc.) — no liability for resulting loss or cost.
• No liability for cancellations/changes to the Journey or Itinerary, including affected arrangements or personal expenses (e.g., food).

5.2 Notice

• Reasonable efforts will be made to notify you of cancellations/changes, directly or via your travel agent.
• Some situations are outside the company's control or knowledge — notice may be minimal or last-minute.
