DCL Final Payment and Cancellation Policies

Deposit
For all bookings which require a deposit, the amount due is typically 20% of the cruise fare (determined at time of booking). This deposit policy applies to all stateroom Guests (including children under age 3). Deposits are fully refundable up until time of final payment for all rooms except for Concierge rooms. Those deposits are non-refundable but the cruise date can be moved and the category change, but they remain non-refundable.

The deposit requirement is for:

  • All new bookings
  • Bookings in which the sail date has changed
  • Bookings that are reinstated

Final Payment
To finalize your reservation, final payment must be made by the final payment due date. Your full and final payment depends on the length of your cruise and if you are staying in a suite/concierge stateroom or a non-suite/non-concierge stateroom.
