Yes, they placed it in the Account Balance portion of the onboard account, which is refundable as cash at the end of cruise. Again, as noted my situation is where we purchased some excursions in excess of the SM credit. We missed a port due to weather and within 30 minutes of the announcement of missed port, which was quite obvious due to the weather, the CD made an announcement that all who had missed an excursion would have their account credited. It was all seamless and quick for us.
