Just about every cruise line will let you cancel right now for a future cruise credit. However, there are a few cruise lines that are giving out cruise spending money (on board credit) to those who don’t cancel and go on their cruise.
Here is a look at the three cruise lines who are giving OBC (on board credit) for cruises through May 31, 2020. Note: To receive the OBC, you would have had to book your cruise before this announcement was made.

Holland America Line – Holland America guests choose to keep their cruise plans on departures through May 31, 2020, an Onboard Spending Credit of $200 per stateroom/$100 per person for voyages longer than 7 days and US$100 per stateroom/US$50 per person for voyages less than 6 days will be automatically applied to their shipboard account as a thank you.
