OK, so now Regent has me worried that they have overbooked my cruise that is coming up on June 11th out of MontrĆ©al. I received an email this morning from my TA with an offer to move my Canada/Bermuda cruise on a āvoluntary basisā to one of three Canada cruises this Fall and I would get the Fall cruise for the same price that I paid plus up to $2,880 in cash back per suite if we moved. Cash back offer is dependent on which of the 3 cruises you choose. One cruise pays less. I attached photos of said offer. This is my first Regent cruise so Iām not familiar with their email offers before sailing but this pretty much says, āwe have overbooked this cruise and need people to switch out of it or we are going to have to cancel some of you if we donāt get enough volunteers.ā Iām sure many of you, like me, have heard the stories of the cruise lines overbooking this summer and now cancelling peopleās cruises because they arenāt getting enough volunteers to move. This has me worried as I booked a discounted fare (I work in the airline industry so Iām familiar with the overbooking process) and feel that I will be one of the first to be cancelled. We are literally a week and a half away from sailing!! Moving my cruise is not an option!!! I do have insurance on the cruise but money has been spent on airfares and hotels, etc. The hotel in MontrĆ©al is refundable until the 8th, thank goodness. Iām sooo looking forward to this cruise and have had it booked for 6 months and been eagerly awaiting it and now Iām completely stressed that we will get cancelled! UGH!!
Thanks for letting me vent. š³š¤
And as I was typing this, I received another email with another cruise offer but much less money offer but with an upgrade to a penthouse suite. Iām already in a penthouse suite on my cruise. Lol
