What a pain in the butt this was for me.
First, Royal moves us from Enchantment to Brilliance and puts us in a Guarantee. I called Friday evening 8/12. Rep has no clue why they did it because we paid extra to book a cabin. Rep fixes and chooses a cabin. She sends confirmation. Confirmation shows a price higher. I decide to wait until 8/18 because they said by 8/18 the price would be matched.
Yesterday, I log in and see they’ve moved the cabins again. What?!?! One on Deck 3 and another on Deck 2 Accessible cabin. No one chose an accessible cabin? And being an April Alaska sailing will have people who do need it, why is someone who is a senior but not unable to handle a regular cabin in it?! I then noticed the price is still wrong on that cabin. I then check my cabin. The price is showing I owe $1800 more than I do.
Needless to say there is absolutely zero rhyme or reason how they do this. And there’s zero rhyme or reason to how they were to “price protect.”
I told the Rep, listen, I have never cruised RCI but I’ve cruised other cruise lines. And Have traveled all over the world and this legitimately might be one of the most frustrating things I’ve experienced. Two hours on the phone yesterday between two calls!!
