Refunds?

[steveyjc81]

Hi All,
Can someone help me. We're booked on a 4 night Dream sailing in August. The deposit plus around 50% of the remaining amount has already been paid. If I cancel now, do I receive all my $ back? Would I be better holding off and waiting to see if DCL cancel?

Coming from the UK, if things open up again etc by then, we might just spend those extra 4 days in Florida - if we go at all. I can't imagine feeling that comfortable on a cruise so soon. (Just how I'm feeling at the minute).

Thanks for your help.

If you cancel before your Paid In Full (PIF) date, you get all of your money including deposit back, unless you have a concierge cabin or purchased a cabin with restrictions. After PIF, there is an increasing penalty of your deposit, 50%, 75% or 100% that you lose. The DCL website has the breakout of the timelines (different for 5 nights and less versus 6 nights or more).

Thank you @Rob1872 for taking the time to reply.

I just cancelled my 3 sailings on the dream starting September 3rd. Since I had not reached PIF - 90 days before the sailings, I am getting all the money back.

Thanks @cvjw . I love cruising, and this would have been our first 'Gold' cruise. I think this bug would have been constantly been at the back of my mind and taken away from the enjoyment. Whether or not we get to Florida though will be another matter. There are better days ahead!
