Fcc

Confused. What's the difference between the new FCC & the "old ones". I need help in deciding which FCC to use. I can't find it anywhere. Thanks.

How old? The most recent change was to the amount of onboard credit based on cabin type and number of days. OV cabins for a week dropped quite a bit. The prior change was, I believe, the dropping of the two for one FCC and now both parties on. Booking must use an FCC to each get the credit.

I believe the latest change was in March 2012. We were on a cruise at the time of the change and they announced it at that time.

There was another change in August.

 

They have added OBC for 3-6 day cruises.

 

$15 inside

$15 outside

$25 balcony

$25 suite

 

The minimum values show up in your "My Princess" account. Unused FCCs in the "Circle Savings Account" will now indicate $15 for each unused FCC.

 

Actual value when you book a cruise will depend on the length of the cruise and thye type cabin.

This post pretty much explains the differences that occurred in March. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1670053

We currently have only old FCCs but we be buying new ones on our next cruise. We will have to see which is best to use for each cruise; i.e. on 10-night cruises, the old FCCs are definitely preferable. We used to just tell the TA to use the oldest FCCs, but now are tracking by FCC 7 digit number.
