Deposit/Payment Policy for Standard Groups

Published 03/11/2015 09:50 PM   |    Updated 07/03/2023 03:44 PM
  • A group must have the required deposit posted (initial or full) in order to avoid cancellation.
  • For standard sailing, a $25 per person initial deposit due 60 days after the booking is made must be posted at the group level to secure the group request. 
    • Please note: Specialty Sailings such as Alaska, Carnival Journeys or Europe have different option / deposit guidelines. Please confirm the option for these sailings in Sailing Availability.
  • Full per person deposit is due for all berthed staterooms, including TBAs, high occupancy staterooms and suites.
  • Otherwise, full per person deposit is due 120 days prior to sailing (for 2/3/4/5 day cruises) and 150 days prior to sailing (for 6/7/8 day cruises).
  • The standard final payment due dates apply.
  • Travel Agency checks and personal checks are not accepted within 30 days of sailing unless the balance due is less than $1000.

The system will automatically generate an emailed payment reminder to the contact listed on the booking profile, informing them of any bookings that are short on deposit (initial or full) with a deadline for compliance. Failure to post the required funds by the designated date will result in automatic cancellation of your cabin or group request.
