DEPOSIT PROTECTION PLAN TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Our Deposit Protection is entirely optional, can be invoked for any reason by our guests, and requires an additional per person fee to be paid at the time of booking - please contact our reservations staff if you would like this to be added tat the initial time of placing your booking).
For travel 01 April 2025 - 31 March 2026, the optional fees are FJD$165.00 per person (AUD$115, NZD$125, USD$76, CAD$102, EUR 69, GBP 59).
Please read these Deposit Protection Plan Conditions carefully.
- Deposit Protection is only available at the time of booking and is payable together with the deposit payment towards the cruise. It cannot be added subsequently after the cruise deposit (or full payment) has been paid.
- The Deposit Protection Plan is not available for any cruise fares based on the full payment due at the time of booking.
- The Deposit Protection Plan fee is non-refundable.
- If the purchaser wishes to activate their purchased Deposit Protection Plan and amend an existing booking, they will need to confirm in writing (via email) to the Blue Lagoon Cruises Reservations team indicating that they are activating their plan and provide an alternative cruise and travel date.
- The purchaser can choose to activate their Deposit Protection Plan and change their booking for any reason up to 60 days prior to their cruise departure date. Their plan will cease to be valid within 60 days of the cruise departure date, or after full payment of the cruise fare is made. Blue Lagoon Cruises must receive written correspondence from the guest to activate their Deposit Protection plan before this 60-day cut-off date.
- For the amended booking, the guest can choose any Blue Lagoon Cruises cruise and any cabin category departing within 12 months of Deposit Protections activation – this is subject to availability.
- The new amended booking will be treated as a completely new booking. The guest can choose to obtain the Deposit Protection Plan again. The full amount of deposit already paid less the Deposit Protection fee will be applied towards the amended booking. There are no other fees or charges.
- If the amended booking deposit amount is less than the deposit amount already paid, then the excess amount will be applied towards the final payment due on the amended booking.
- If the amended booking deposit amount due is greater than the deposit already paid, the guest must top up an additional amount to confirm the amended booking.
- In the unlikely event, the amended booking cruise fare is less than the deposit amount already paid, then no refund will be given, and any excess amount will be forfeited.
- The Deposit Protection must be purchased for all guests in the booking/cabin.
- Please note that Deposit Protection is not meant to replace travel insurance, which we strongly recommend the guest has in place separately.
