How far in advance should I book Amels?
Peak weeks lock 6 to 9 months ahead; shoulder weeks are often bookable inside 90 days. We hold pre-negotiated windows on roughly thirty percent of the regional fleet, which lets us recover late inquiries that public APIs show as fully committed.
What is included in the weekly rate?
The weekly rate covers the yacht, crew, insurance, all interior service and tender use. Not included: fuel, port fees, provisioning, VAT where applicable, and crew gratuity (10 to 15 percent is standard).
How are guests and cabins typically configured for Amels?
Charter yachts sleep 10 to 12 guests in 5 to 6 cabins as a rule; the largest class sleeps 16 to 20 in 8 to 10 cabins. Single-occupancy and master-on-deck layouts vary by builder; our shortlists always disclose actual cabin-by-cabin configuration.
Can the itinerary adapt once we are aboard?
Yes. Every MYBA-form contract gives the Captain and client latitude to respond to weather and preference. Itineraries are circulated as a recommendation, not a commitment.
