My wife and I were booked on the Sept cruise but due to an unexpected medical issue we had to cancel and we didn't join the Merlijn. While Merlijn attempted to find replacement passengers to help us avoid additional cancellation fees this was not successful. I will admit that I should have purchased trip insurance but was fully committed to joining the cruise with other family members. As I have learned the cruise actually booked 23 passengers (out of a capacity of 24). I submitted an email request for consideration in receiving a refund that would have been equitable. My experience with Merlijn is not positive!
