Hurtigruten: Payments & Refunds
| Cruise | Deposit Amount | Final Payment Due Date |
| Bookings with a cost less than $1,340 | 100% of total fare | At time of booking |
| All Other Sailings | 20% of total fare | 8 weeks prior to departure |
If the payment is not made by the due date, Hurtigruten reserves the right to cancel the booking, keep the deposit and demand a cancellation fee in accordance with the cancellation rules.

Cancellations and Refunds
Cancellation and refund policies vary by operator, with penalties generally increasing as the departure date approaches. If a cancellation occurs, the following charges will be assessed:
| Cruise | Days Prior to Departure | Cancellation Charge |
| Bookings with a cost less than $1,340 | Any day | 100% of fare |
| All Other Sailings | 61 days or more | 20% of total fare (deposit amount) |
| 60-42 days | 30% of total fare | |
| 41-28 days | 60% of total fare | |
| 27-14 days | 90% of total fare | |
| 13 days or less | 100% of total fare |
All cancellations must be done in writing by the person who has made the booking. The cancellation is the date that Hurtigruten receives the cancellation request. For trips that are based on pre-paid flights, the airline company’s booking and cancellation rules will apply. Any trip protection costs will be additional to the agreed price for the booking.
There is no refund of any or all of the booking price for customers who do not show up at the pier for embarkation or who disembark prior to the end of their ticketed cruise itinerary. Should the customer's cabin include several people, partial cancellation will result in the application of the above penalties to the persons who have cancelled and the remaining customers being charged the applicable prices for the revised number of customers in the cabin.
Deposit, payment and cancellation terms may differ for group bookings.
Timetables and rates are subject to change, and exceptions may apply for holiday departures. Please confirm payment and cancellation policies with your Vacations To Go travel counselor at time of booking.
Purchase of travel insurance may reduce or eliminate the cancellation and interruption fees outlined above. For more information, please call your Vacations To Go travel counselor.
