Guest options
- Move to Valiant Lady‘s four-night Miami sailing on May 6, 2027, which visits the same ports.
- Rebook on another eligible four- or five-night sailing in April or May 2027.
- Take a full refund with no fees or penalties.
Guests who rebook keep their original fare and promotions and get onboard credit (“Sailor Loot”): $100 per standard cabin or $300 per suite.
What it means for airline travelers
- If you already booked flights to Miami for April 28, decide on your option first, then change flights. The Valiant Lady swap moves you eight days later.
- Miami sailings are served by Miami (MIA) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL). Late April and early May are busy, so if you are on standby, fly in the day before.
- Rebooking or a refund on the cruise does not cover your airfare; check your airline’s change rules.
- No travel-industry or interline rates were mentioned.
