Price Monitoring & Adjustment Protection
Cruise pricing can fluctuate.
When you book this hosted Virgin Voyages sailing through Seize the Bite Travel, we will actively monitor your cabin pricing on a weekly basis up until 120 days prior to sailing — which is Virgin Voyages’ pricing protection window.
If a lower publicly available fare becomes available on Virgin Voyagesfor your exact cabin category, I will work directly with Virgin Voyages to have the pricing adjusted according to their policies. Any approved adjustments will be issued by the cruise line in the form of:
• A fare reduction
• A refund (if applicable)
• Or additional onboard credit
This ensures you can book with confidence, knowing your rate is being monitored through the applicable protection period.
All adjustments are subject to Virgin Voyages’ pricing policies and eligibility rules.
*Prices are per-person, cruise-only based on double occupancy, specified stateroom category in USD and are subject to availability. $20 per person, per day gratuities and $200 non-refundable hosted fee per person are additional.
Prices and promotions are for new individual bookings, are subject to availability, may change without notice, are capacity-controlled, and may be changed or withdrawn at any time. Ask your Travel Advisor for the most up to date pricing and promotions.
