I decided to cancel a cruise reservation over six months before sailing. I called the travel agency to cancel. I was connected to a voicemail requesting my name and telephone number for return call. I left my information. I decided instead of waiting for the call back, I would send an email message. I specifically rquested CANCELLATION of the cruise reservation including my name, cruise reservation number, cruiseline, ship, and sail date. I received the following form letter demanding cancellation charges of $100 per passenger before any other action is taken, even though the form letter clearly states that Royal Caribbean Cruiseline does not require cancellation charges at this time.
Consumers beware of hidden text when booking any cruise with this travel agency.
