PLEASE NOTE: PORT TAXES, CUSTOMS USER TAX, AND DEVIATION INSURANCE FEES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RATES QUOTED IN THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BECAUSE THEY VARY FROM LINE TO LINE AND DEPEND UPON THE ROUTING. They will be quoted at the time reservations are confirmed (and can range from $10 to $535 per person). Deviation Insurance is an insurance premium paid by the passenger to cover the ship in the event that the ship must be diverted from its route due to a passenger reason. The insurance coverage thus pays to the ship owner the costs of operation of the ship on a deviated route. | |||
|
These fares are established by the Shipping Lines in Euros, and therefore must be paid to the Lines in Euros by Freighter World Cruises. Estimated U.S.$ fares are based on a currency exchange rate of US$1.50 to Euro 1.00. The final U.S. dollar fare will be based on the exchange rate at the time the currency is purchased. Any decrease in the final fare from that quoted above will be refunded, and any increase will be collected. |
