CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS
Can I rebook my booking to another period or park?
RCN has temporarily expanded its rebooking service. This means that you can rebook your stay to another park or period. We would like to mention that if there is a price difference, the costs are for your own account. RCN will not give a refund if there is a negative price difference. When rebooking, the original terms of cancellation remain in effect.
I would like to cancel my stay, is that possible?
Given the special circumstances, RCN will not reimburse the travel sum already paid. Instead, you will receive a recreation voucher worth the amount you already paid. If you have a booking up to April 30. Do not hesitate to contact our contact center via 085 0400 700 or contact@rcn.nl. For bookings with a date of stay after May 1, click here to request a voucher.
To reduce pressure on our contact center, you will help us and other guests a lot by not contacting us if you are contacting us for bookings with a stay date after May 1.
Given the increased bustle due to asked questions, we prioritize questions concerning stayings up to April 30. We kindly ask for your understanding for the fact that a response to your request may take longer than usual.
Will the insurance cover the cost if I cancel?
RCN's cancellation insurance does not cover the outbreak of an infectious disease like the coronavirus. There are insurance policies which cover it, but you have to have taken out extra insurance for additional reasons for cancellation, like the outbreak of an infectious disease. If you have taken out that extra insurance, the insurer will compensate you. For more information, refer to your insurer.
If you still have any questions...
Get in touch with the Contact Centre at contact@rcn.nl or on 085 0400700.
Given the extraordinary circumstances, we currently receive many telephone inquiries and emails in our Contact Center. Please understand our waiting time and / or response time can be currently slightly longer than you are used to.
