Complete, up-to-date name change rules and requirements for Oceanwide Expeditions.
Planning a cruise with Oceanwide Expeditions? Here are the latest 2026 rules for name change policies. We break everything down in plain language so you know exactly what to expect before you book.
Name Corrections: Minor spelling fixes are often free if requested more than 30–45 days before sailing. After that, a fee may apply.
Legal Name Changes: You will need to provide official documents (marriage certificate, court order, passport update). The name on the booking must match your government-issued ID exactly.
Guest Substitution / Name Transfer: Changing the person traveling is usually treated as a cancellation + new booking. This can trigger full cancellation penalties, especially close to sailing.
Policies can change. Speak with a specialist for the most current information on your specific itinerary.
