Cancellation Protection Plans CPP Standard Plan

Our Standard Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP Standard Plan) will allow you, for any reason, to provide written cancellation up to 24 hours prior to scheduled cruise or cruisetour departure and receive a refund equal to 80% of the applicable cancellation fee (90% if you purchased our CPP Platinum Plan). In addition, Holland America Line (HAL) automatically assumes an additional US$500 of liability for lost, damaged or delayed baggage of passengers who purchase the CPP Standard Plan still subject, however, to the limitations in our baggage policies. For example, we do not cover losses while baggage is in the custody of airlines.

The CPP Standard Plan is not insurance; it provides no rights other than those explained above. For example, it does not protect double-triple-quad occupancy rates should one or more members of your party cancel, nor does it cover expenses or unused services due to trip interruption.

CPP Platinum Plan

Our Platinum Cancellation Protection Plan (CPP Platinum Plan) enables you to supplement the CPP Standard Plan with insurance coverage and travel assistance services as well as increase your refund amount to 90% for cancellations made more than 24 hours prior to departure. The CPP Platinum Plan provides you with the following insurance benefits and services, in addition to the CPP Standard Plan benefits and larger refund:

• Trip Interruption coverage provides protection if your trip is interrupted after departure due to a covered reason. The plan reimburses your unused (determined in the case of your cruise or cruisetour on a pro rata basis), non-refundable land or sea expenses prepaid to HAL, airfare paid to return home and certain additional expenses up to $100/day. Maximum benefit is 150% of your cruise/cruisetour cost.
• Trip Delay coverage provides reimbursement for reasonable additional accommodations and traveling expenses incurred to rejoin the trip in progress when you are delayed for more than 12 hours, due to covered reasons. Maximum benefit is US$1,000; not to exceed US$100/day.
