I’m considering a 3 day 2 night cruise in November with AMANDA Cruises. Can you clarify the following: *Is there a 100% refund by cancelling a certain number of days before the sailing? As I think I read it- can be cancelled from now to 15days prior of sailing, but a 10% amount is kept. Please clarify. *Can a debit card be used for both the deposit and final payment? *What is the deposit percentage payment? *When is final payment required?
If you cancel before 30 days there will be no charge from the cruise. Normally you will have to deposit 30% and the final payment have to be made 10 days before travel date
