Booking Future Cruise While On Board

For anyone who has recently booked a future Royal Caribbean Cruise while currently on a RCCL Cruise, I have a question. What types of perks are generally given for booking on board? For example, on Celebrity, if you book on board, they normally give you two free perks (gratuities, beverage package, internet, or OBC, for example), additonal OBC, and a reduced deposit. Does Royal Caribbean offer the same types of perks if you book a future cruise on board?

The perks for booking on board are reduced deposit and OBC. Cruise fares are the same onboard as they are for everyone else. Royal generally does not do perks like Celebrity.

In that vein, can I book a future celebrity cruise while on board a Royal Caribbean cruise and get the standard celebrity perks? Hmmmmm.... I wonder.... ?

In some areas, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity act like loving sisters. :D

Thanks Bob for that link. I always wondered how the next cruise program works. :D

What (if any) are the benefits of UK passengers booking onboard? Currently we don't have the ability to alter a booking without charge....once we book that is it.

Hi Lizzie,

we get the same as outlined above PLUS we are permitted to make one change free AND if there is a price reduction we can call and ask for it - both of those 'benefits' are not available normally to UK bookings.

I have claimed on the price reduction on one of ours and surprisingly didn't have any argument or query with the agent on the phone - so it does work!!

For that reason we always try and book on board.

Hope that helps, Jean

Thanks Jean .. that is very interesting to know. May try and take advantage of that on our cruise next week.

Celebrity allow multiple changes on their scheme & also gave us extra obc on request when there was a significant price drop (via our TA to whom we had transferred our onboard booking)
