I guess they won the waiting game. I needed to PIF 3 weeks ago for the "no Oktoberfest Adults-only" Oktoberfest sailing. I couldn't tie up $18k in hopes of a refund, so now my deposit will be in limbo. Has anyone been successful in requesting the refund after they put the deposit in deferred status ?
According to the posting by DU, now the Iceland and Arizona/Utah trips in September are also cancelled as of today, so now all ABD trips through September are cancelled.
