CRUISE RATES, DEPOSITS, AND FINAL PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS
All cruise rates quoted are per person, based on double occupancy (U.S. dollars, cruise-only). The price of your cruise includes ship accommodations, meals (except for specialty restaurants), 24-hour room service (all room service orders will be charged $9.95 room service fee – except if you order off Continental Breakfast menu, the fee is waived and it’s complimentary if you are in a suite), standard beverages (coffee, tea, milk, poured water and juices, iced tea, and lemonade), use of the fitness center, and most activities and entertainment onboard the ship.
By booking, you will receive a Classic Beverage Package, Gratuities, and the Basic Wi-Fi Package for all cabin occupants.
Please note: The cruise line may offer promotional rates (for different cabin types other than what we have contracted in this brochure), however, our per person cabin rates are typically the lowest available.
A deposit for all cabin occupants is due to Symposia Medicus at the time of registration ($250.00 per person for cabin categories I1 to C2 and $500.00 per person for cabin categories SS to RS).
Final payments are due to Symposia Medicus by Friday, June 21, 2024. Payments not received by the due date are subject to cabin cancellation with no refunds.

DINING ABOARD SHIP
When you make your cruise reservations, you can request either 6:00pm Main Dining, Flexible Select Dining (see details below), or 8:30pm Late Dining. Please inform us if you or your guests have any special food or dietary requirements and inform us of other cruise passengers (not guests in your cabin) with whom you would like to sit. Your final dining assignment will be indicated in your eDocs unless your preferred dining time is not available, in which case you will be waitlisted. If you are waitlisted, you can go to the Guest Relations Desk once you get onboard the ship to see if you can change your dinner seating time.
The Flexible Select Dining is a flexible dining option. With this option, you can be seated for dinner in the main dining room at any time between 6:00-9:30pm, or you can make reservations to dine at any time that you choose within that time frame. Reservations can be made up to July 11, 2024 or can be made on the ship.
If you reserve a suite, your dining will be in Luminae, you are automatically booked for Main Dining. If you have any requests or changes you will make them with your butler.
