What happens if one person cancels on a cruise?

Typically the person who cancels must file a claim for reimbursement provided he is canceling for a covered reason. The remaining person is charged a single supplement because he is now sailing solo in a cabin meant for two. Many policies provide for this situation, but you must pay any fees and file for reimbursement.
