MORE INFORMATION: www.americancruiselines.com/about-us/covid-19-operating-protocol The Covid-19 Operating Protocol is subject to review and change at any time. As the situation evolves, operating practices must be adapted; this includes the potential for cruise suspension. These practices do not eliminate the risk. Rather, they are designed to reduce risk and slow the spread of illness by removing known transmission sources, increasing awareness, and speeding response time. CANCELLATION POLICY: In view of recent events, American Cruise Lines is offering guests with new and existing bookings for cruises departing March 9, 2020 through December 31, 2020 the ability to cancel for any reason up to 24 hours prior to the start of your Cruise Package and receive Cruise Vouchers equal to 100% of Amounts Paid.
