There are three ways to pay for your cabin for the Malt Shop Memories Cruise 2013. Payment Plan One is our Standard Payment Plan. We also have two Payment Plans that allow our guests to s-t-r-e-t-c-h out their payments over many months.  Payment Plan Two is our monthly Sail-A-Way plan and Payment Plan Three is our Quarterly Sail-A-Way plan. At the time of your reservation, you may select whichever plan you desire.

You choose the plan that best fits your needs and requirements. Entertainment Cruise Productions is dedicated to making the payments for cabins as guest-friendly as possible.

*All payments are non-refundable

Guests traveling under non-U.S., non-Canadian and non-European passports must check with the Consulate of every country visited during the cruise for specific Visa requirements. When contacting the Consulate for the country being visited, be sure to provide the complete itinerary of the cruise so the Consulate can provide the correct information as your Schengen Visa requirements.
