1Alternate payment schedule and deposit amounts apply to all suites, villas, penthouses and World Cruises.

2Except certain promotions where deposits or cruise fares are non-refundable and payment or cancellation schedules vary.

3A change from Basic to Comfort categories constitutes a cancellation and is a new booking.

4There is no Cancellation Fee for guest 3-8 if cancelled outside of the 100% cancellation period. If the reservation is cancelled within the 100% cancellation period then the applicable cancellation fee will apply for guest 3-8.

5The Cancellation charge will be equal to either the amount of the deposit or the amount of the specified percentage of the total fare, whichever is greater.

6All penalties exclude government taxes and fees. At times MSC Cruises may offer a promotion that includes a non-refundable deposit. This means that the deposit paid at time of booking will not be refunded if guest chooses to cancel at anytime. Promotion is always labelled as NR in the promotion name.

Appropriate deposit or full payment (as specified above for each individual cruise line) must be paid by credit card at time of booking according to the payment schedule. Air Canada Vacations reserves the right to cancel your booking if full payment is not received by the scheduled due date.
