Refund & Cancellation Policy

Last Updated: October 2026

At Sabine Harris Luxury Travel (an independent affiliate of Cruise Planners), we craft bespoke travel experiences and curate reservations with top-tier cruise lines, river operators, and luxury land suppliers worldwide. Because travel arrangements involve independent third-party operators, this Refund & Cancellation Policy outlines the guidelines governing cancellations, modifications, and refunds.

1. Supplier Terms & Conditions

All cruises, expeditions, flights, accommodations, and guided land tours booked through Sabine Harris Luxury Travel are subject directly to the individual terms, conditions, cancellation schedules, and refund policies of each respective travel supplier (such as Tauck, Silversea, Regent Seven Seas, Viking, Seabourn, etc.).

Supplier Penalties: Cruise lines and tour operators enforce strict cancellation schedules. Depending on when a cancellation occurs relative to the departure date, penalties may range from a forfeited deposit to 100% of the total journey cost.
Non-Refundable Elements: Certain promotional fares, private charter bookings, customized shore excursions, and published airfares may be non-refundable once ticketed.

2. Professional Planning & Advisory Fees

Any professional itinerary design, consultation, or administrative fees charged directly by Sabine Harris Luxury Travel cover the time, research, and expertise required to curate custom journeys. Such professional advisory fees are non-refundable once research or booking work has commenced.

3. Changes & Modifications

If you need to adjust your travel dates, stateroom category, or itinerary components, we will work with suppliers to accommodate changes. However, suppliers may assess change fees, administration charges, or rate differences based on current availability.

4. Travel Protection & Insurance (Strongly Recommended)

Because unforeseen health events, family emergencies, weather disruptions, or personal circumstances can arise, we strongly advise every traveler to purchase comprehensive travel protection. A suitable policy (including trip cancellation, interruption, medical evacuation, and optional Cancel For Any Reason coverage) provides essential protection against supplier penalties and covered non-refundable expenses.

5. How to Request a Cancellation or Modification

All cancellation or change requests must be submitted in writing via email. We will process your notice with the relevant suppliers and advise you of any applicable supplier refunds or credits:
