Seabourn has extended its “Early Bonus Savings” promotion, that provides an opportunity for travel advisors to earn commissions, as well as for consumers to benefit from additional savings when travelling with the cruise line.
Those taking advantage of the promotion can receive an additional 10 per cent off the base cruise fare when they pay their booking in full by 30NOV 2021. The offer applies to select voyages that depart on or after APR 2022 through winter and spring 2023, including cruises on the line's purpose-built expedition ship, Seabourn Venture. The voyages include destinations around the globe, such as the Caribbean, Panama Canal, Asia, Arabia, Australia, and New Zealand, Alaska, Canada & New England, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the South Pacific, South America, Antarctica, and more.
“Both travelers and travel advisor partners alike have come to appreciate our Early Bonus Savings programs because it is beneficial to all: guests receive additional savings and travel advisor partners earn and receive their much-deserved commission now,” said Steve Smotrys, vice president of Global Sales for Seabourn.
According to Seabourn, the Early Bonus Savings offer can be combined with other promotions for additional value. It is available for select voyages, but is not valid on World Cruises or Grand Voyages or segments of either. A complete listing of the applicable sailings, including terms and conditions, for the Early Bonus Savings promotion can be viewed on Seabourn’s web site.
Seabourn has also updated its “Worry-Free Promise” policy to provide continued flexibility. For bookings made by 31DEC 2021 on sailings departing by 31APR, 2022, guests may cancel up to 30 days prior to departure or within 30 days of embarkation if they test positive for or have been directly exposed to COVID-19. They will receive a 100% future cruise credit equal to the amount of the non-refundable portion of cancellation fees based on payment already received. The Future Cruise Credit issued using “Worry Free Promise” may then be used to book sailings departing through 31DEC 2022.
In addition, the policy includes a “Best Fare Guarantee” benefit, where guests can request the lowest publicly available fare offered for their voyage in the event fares are lowered following the initial booking. The request must be received at least 30 days prior to the booked voyage departure date to apply. Compensation provided will be in the form of a shipboard credit, suite upgrade, fare reduction or other method.
