Windstar Cruises Unveils New 'Peace of Mind Promise'

Windstar Cruises is launching a new “Peace of Mind Promise” to give travelers flexibility and itinerary protection for eligible 2026 and 2027 sailings. 

The program protects the entire Windstar-booked journey, including the cruise, shore excursions, hotels, air and transfers. Guests can cancel up to seven days prior to departure and retain the majority of their trip value as a future cruise credit that is valid for 24 months and may be applied to any Windstar voyage worldwide. 

The benefit is automatically included at no additional cost on eligible sailings departing through March 31, 2027, and applies to both new reservations and existing bookings already under deposit. 

“Travelers are paying close attention to the headlines as they plan their vacations, and advisors need flexibility and reassurance when helping clients book with confidence,” says Janet Bava, chief commercial officer for Windstar Cruises. “Our new Peace of Mind program gives guests the ability to secure today’s best offers while knowing their investment is protected through March 2027. From Alaska and the Mediterranean to French Polynesia, advisors can confidently match clients with the right sailing, backed by added booking flexibility and support.” 

Additionally, guests can take advantage of a limited-time complimentary All-Inclusive offer, available for bookings through June 30. This added value includes Wi-Fi, gratuities and select beverages, representing more than $1,300 in value on a seven-day voyage for two. 

Windstar also offers optional travel protection at the time of booking, which includes coverage for medical expenses abroad, covered trip interruptions, luggage delays and more.  

“With the Peace of Mind Promise, advisors can confidently recommend Windstar knowing their clients have flexibility built in, plus the option of additional insurance coverage when appropriate,” says Bava.
