Princess Cruises Cancelation Policy

Since a cancelation likely means a diminished opportunity to sell space on other cruises/cruisetours, the cancelation fees in the schedules below apply regardless of whether Your space is resold. You hereby agree that losses sustained by us in the event of Your cancelation would be very difficult or impossible to quantify, and that the fees set forth in our cancelation policy represent a fair and reasonable assessment as liquidated damages. The amount of cancelation fee varies based on length of sailing for cruise/cruisetour and timing of cancelation for cruise/cruisetour and Cruise Plus package, as illustrated in the schedules below.
