STARTING THE RESERVATION PROCEDURE BEFORE OPEN BOOKING
RESERVATION PROCEDURE, PRICING, TERMS & CONDITIONS
Signature Cruise Experiences proudly introduces Homecoming: The Cruise ’26, a new program honoring the history, achievements, and experience of both Historic Black Colleges & Universities and the fraternities and sororities of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, famously known as Divine Nine.
To provide fair access for anyone wishing to sail on the cruise, the Reservation Procedure will be as follows:
PRE-SAIL RESERVATION PROGRAM
Guests wishing to sail on Homecoming: The Cruise ’26 are encouraged to participate in the Pre-Sail Reservation Program. Doing so allows a guest to enter the Reservation Procedure before Open Booking and establishes a guest’s priority for selecting a stateroom and completing a reservation upon Activation of the guest’s Pre-Sail Reservation.
Each Pre-Sail Reservation holder will be notified as to the date and time that they may participate in the Stateroom Selection process. Such guests may then proceed to select a stateroom and complete their reservation on their assigned Selection Date.
Pre-Sail Reservations are not binding, require no deposit, and will be accepted until January 9, 2025, at 10AM ET. Stateroom Selection for Pre-Sail Reservation holders will begin around January 16, 2025.
